    Stanford's pro day this afternoon was teeming with NFL personnel, although the bulk of them represented one team -- the 49ers. Among the coaches making the short drive up Highway 101 were defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, offensive coordinator Greg Roman, offensive line coach Tim Drevno and running backs coach Tom Rathman, who put Stanford fullback Owen Marecic through cone drills and then spent more than a half hour chatting with Marecic in a corner of the practice field. Marecic is considered the top fullback in the draft and could go as high as the third round. Fangio, Roman and Drevno, of course, coached at Stanford last season. "He has a ton of experience and he seems like a great coach, so he's giving me a lot of advice," Marecic said of Rathman. "There are a lot of things to work on."

    Ya exactly lol. Its a tough call because Norris is getting up there in age and they could really use a good wco fb. If they do draft him high however i just hope they use him to his potential. Not like Singletary signing westbrook and not even using him until gore went down. But i think if harbaugh did grab him he'd know how to use him very well.
