As day two of the NFL Draft is upon us, it's not too early to reflect on the moves and selections made in the first round this year. CBS Sports' Rob Rang has been taking a look at all he picks under a microscope, and after a little digging, found this gem:

The 49ers still get themselves a lot of value with the selection of A.J. Jenkins in the first round, though Irvin would have been a terrific addition to an already terrific linebacker core of San Francisco. now they'll get to see him twice a year up in Seattle. But, no time to cry over spilled milk, there's still work to do.
