Ayep.
They filled all the holes on the roster and it's going to be a pure BPA draft for these guys.
I'm crossing my fingers that it's Geno in the end as I think he'll provide a fan base spark due to the ineptitude of drafting QB's over the past 30 years. Geno would be a huge statement pick for the new regime that they are willing to get a QB in and groom him. It's been a long, long time since we've had the opportunity to get excited about a hand picked QB (I still remember everyone getting excited about Brodie and Ricky), and with the Alex Smith acquisition, there is absolutely no pressure that will be placed on Geno, Alex, Reid or Dorsey as we'll happily let him sit and learn the system so that he's ready to go. Having done that with Rogers and seeing how it turned out is a nice cushion that Dorsey will have in selecting Geno.
Drafting one of the tackles or Jordan doesn't give the fan base that same expectant excitement as they are simply "backups" where Geno is the future in the eyes of the fans.
