10. San Francisco 49ers - Aaron Curry, OLB, Wake Forest
Perhaps more than anyone on this list, Aaron Curry has *played his way in 2008 into being a potential top ten pick. At 6'2" 245 pounds, Curry runs a 4.6 40 and has an incredible knack for finding the ball. Having him and Patrick Willis in the same linebacking corps could be helpful for the 49ers as they look to rebuild on a disappointing 2008 season.
10. San Francisco 49ers â€" Rey Maualuga, LB, USC
The Niners could upgrade at many positions, including quarterback, but with Mike Singletary being the head coach and defense coming first, it will be hard to pass up Maualuga.
10. San Francisco 49ers: Everette Brown, DE/OLB, Florida State
If you look up the word "bust" in the dictionary, you'll see a picture of Manny Lawson, right next to Robert Gallery and Ryan Leaf. While Parys Haralson evolved into a dependable pass-rusher, Lawson has compiled six career sacks in 32 games. Terrible. It's time for the 49ers to move on. Everette Brown would be a nice solution; he fits the scheme and he finished the year with 21.5 TFL and 13.5 sacks.
10. SF. CB, Malcolm Jenkins, Ohio State. I was surprised Jenkins didn't enter the 2008 NFL Draft, where he would have been a top 20 selection. Jenkins won the 2008 Jim Thorpe Award.
