The NFL Draft

Sharrif Floyd #73
1st Round 
I believe that the 49ers should select DT Sharrif Floyd from the University of Florida in the first round of the NFL Draft. I think he will be selected early so the 49ers should not waste any time making their move. They should trade up in the draft picks to try to ensure the pick. He would be an essential addition to the defensive line to help pressure the quarterbacks of opposing offenses. With 33 year old veteran niner defensive lineman Justin Smith injuring his arm in the late season of last year. Floyd can develope to become a great replacement for when smith decides to retire. It will be sad to see smith go! Though all good things must come to an end. With the guidance of smith, floyd can become a terror for opposing offenses and become a versitle threat along with possible teammate Aldon Smith who is a natural Beast.

Off The Field

Vernon Davis
Life Without The Helmet
Vernon's Jamba Juice in Santa Clara, CA

San Francisco 49ers star Tight-End, Vernon Davis is now the proud owner of an existing Jamba Juice located in Santa Clara, with two more nearby outlets on the way. The Jamba Juice is  located at 3942 Rivermark Plaza in Santa Clara. Davis stated that his role in his new franchise is basically to provide support and and “to make sure the day-to-day is ran right.” Vernon wants to promote a healthy diet in which he highly believes in. He stated on why he decided to become a Jamba Juice franchise owner, “I thought it’d be a perfect fit for me, and everything I believe in. I believe in a healthy lifestyle and being active, as well as putting the right things in your body. Everything I believe in is in the same thing Jamba Juice believes in.” So the next time you're in Santa Clara, take the time to buy a smoothie at vernon davis's jamba juice. I now I will be making a trip there in the future. Raven fans are welcome to visit but will most likely be shown the way out as soon as they walk in.
 

A Secondary Addition

Nnamdi Asomugha
THE EAGLE'S ARRIVAL
The latest addition to the 49ers is cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha who was acquired in a trade from the Philadelphia Eagles. The cornerback has agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers, Asomugha will earn $1.35 million in base salary with a chance to earn an additional $1.65 million in incentives. Asomugha did considerably bad while on the eagles though the whole eagle defense performed horrible last season. His press-man coverage skill set was never ideally suited to the "Wide Nine" scheme prevalent in Philadelphia over the past two seasons. The 31-year-old bottomed out by allowing an eye-popping 120.6 passer rating on throws in his territory last season, according to Pro Football Focus. Which I believe resulted in a lost of confidence in his abilities. That can really bring down an athletes ability to perform to their full capabilities. With him joining the elite 49ers strong-willed defense, he is sure to gain back his confidence and perform to the high standards he is known to play with.
