07/30/2010 - Santa Clara, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Francisco 49ers completed the signings of their 2010 draft class on Friday, as guard Mike Iupati followed offensive tackle Anthony Davis, safety Taylor Mays and linebacker Navorro Bowman, who inked deals earlier in the day.
Davis, the 11th overall pick out of Rutgers, and Iupati, selected 17th overall out of Idaho, signed five-year deals. Mays, a safety from Southern California selected in the second round, and Bowman, a linebacker from Penn State chosen in the third round, each agreed to four-year contracts.
Davis started 32 of the 38 games he played for Rutgers. He was a Third-Team All-American as a junior last year and earned First-Team All-Big East honors as a sophomore when he made the transition from guard to tackle.
Iupati started all but two of his 35 games at Idaho and became only the second non-BCS player to be named a finalist for the Outland Trophy as the nation's top interior lineman since the award's inception in 1946.
Mays led the Trojans with 96 tackles in 2009 and finished his four-year collegiate career with 276 tackles and five interceptions.
Bowman skipped his senior season to enter the NFL after totaling 93 tackles, including a team best 17 for a loss, with three sacks, two interceptions and two fumble recoveries last year.

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East.
