ROTB Community Mock Draft, Pick 30: 49ers Pick Up LB Upshaw

With the 30th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers select Courtney Upshaw, LB, Alabama

In what is seemingly the fall of the draft, Upshaw is still available. This is not a position of need for the Niners, but with the possibility of adding another talented piece to their already elite defense, they jumped up and couldn't get the name card to the podium quickly enough. Upshaw adds another potent pass rusher with a great motor. Plus, having him in the lineup working with Patrick Willis will only help him. There are questions about his athletic ability, but not his performance.
