BBV Community Mock Draft 2011, Round 2: 49ers Take Christian Ballard

Only one selection this morning in our Big Blue View Community Mock Draft. The San Francisco 49ers pick is in, and 'Pat19' has gone defense for the 49ers after nabbing wide receiver A.J. Green in the first round. Here is the pick:

San Francisco (45th overall) -- Christian Ballard, DT, Iowa

BPA is tough to determine here, as I'm not sold on Leshoure or Baldwin. Ballard, however, had a very good college career, and you can never have enough quality defensive linemen. If we keep Aubrayo Franklin, Ballard combines with Justin Smith to form a really good line in our 3-4.-- Pat19

My take: Tough to judge BPA, as '19' said. This could turn out to be a great pick, though, as Ballard is one of those raw, unfinished players with lots of upside.

Top Players Remaining

Here are the top players still on the board, from SB Nation's Mocking The Draft:

-- Mike LeShoure, RB, Illinois
-- Jonathan Baldwin, WR, Pittsburgh
