2013 Draft Picks

[Icege]

EDIT: A lot of reports were saying that Jones was for a 2013 7th while what the trade for Murphy was wasn't officially disclosed. Murphy came at the cost of a 2013 7th round pick while Jones was for a 7th round pick. The team still has all of their 2013 picks aside from a 3rd (traded for Alexander) and 7th (traded for Murphy). Thanks Kurb!

The San Francisco 49ers are now in possession of Carolina's 3rd & 7th round picks for the 2013 draft. The 3rd was traded in order to draft Frank Alexander, while the 7th was sent for Colin Jones (whom the Panthers apparently have had their eye on since the last draft).

Louis Murphy came at the cost of a 4th or 5th round selection.

This leaves the team with a 1st, 2nd, 4th OR 5th, and a 6th round pick.

Do you think that this is a sign that the coaching staff likes what they're working with? Is this another reason that you hate The Hurney Badger? I don't see the team being able to trade up with the lack of ammunition, which makes me wonder if they're looking to trade one of the vets as the season goes on, or when the draft comes around. Obviously the draft is a ways off, so there isn't any reason to panic (but don't let that stop you!), but it does pose a few interesting questions.

I dnt care. I only care about the 1st and 2nd rounders.

I think it's a sign that we're going to look at the oppurtunity to bring in some FA next year. Hurney knows what he's doing. If we're trading away multiple picks next year, the only other way to fill other spots is by FA.

the 7th round pick is in 2014

[chknwing]

no it just means draft picks can be obtained as easily as they are given

[Kurb]

I thought Murphy was traded for a later round pick. Like a 6th or 7th

[Panthro]

It was a 6th I believe....it was supposed to be an Otah-Murphy swap

[2jakefansinva]

I wish we could trade away our 6th and 7th round picks every year for someone already in the NFL.

[TruCatzFan]

Ahhhh yes... The annual (next years draft thread) before the season even kicks off.

I've seen this movie before, it usually never ends well

[SuperMan]

With our current record with 3rd rounders I am glad we don't have one....

as long as we have our 1st and 2nd i'm happy.

[Jesse]

As long as we nail our 1st and 2nd rounders I think well be alright

[Kurb]

Murphy was aquired for a 7th.

Which explains why WhiteBoySpeed from the niners was aquired with a 2014 7th

I thought about posting this thread but choose not to because I felt it was too early and it is, but since it's here; I would say that Rivera and staff are comfortable with the players we have and feel that we only need a few upgrades.

we have our 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th.. not really anything to be worried about. c'mon man! we should be used to not having a 3rd round pick. so the only diff this year is we don't have our 7th. PANICCCCCCCCCCC
