that's what i was thinking.
as for Michael Wilson.....i was hoping that i could see someone make the official announcement at the podium, like the others. but i'm genuinely happy for him.
Karty might be a second round pick next year. He might be the best kept secret in college football.
As for Moody, he’s really good and a solid Gould replacement. Really like who Niners took with first 3 picks.
Since 2000 only 3 kickers have been taken in first 2 rounds. Moody is the 5th taken in top 3. Highly unlikely Karty will be a second or even third round pick.
Niners roster top to bottom is strong enough that they can make an early pick on a kicker. Not many teams in that position.
I think they may have made a mistake selecting Moody in the 3rd Round. SF needs more depth on the offensive line. I think an OT might have been a better choice.
As Lex noted, early round PK’s are a rare breed. There haven’t been any that panned out since Janikowski was picked by the Raiders in Round 1 in 2000.
As for Karty? I predict Round 4 or 5.
