I expect us to trade down from 31 (and maybe another trade down as well) and address the other 2 positions, as well as a DL in day 2 for more depth. I'm guessing Brunskill, or a 1st round OT who plays inside before Staley retires, is being slated to start at RG? And Thomas slated to replace Buckner? What positions do you think we target in day 3/UDFA for depth? I could see us going for RB, TE, LB, S. A great thing about our FO/Coaching staff is how many contributors we get in day 3/UDFA/bargain bin FA in general. Kittle, Greenlaw, Moseley, Bourne, James, Dwelley, Breida, Mostert, Brunskill, Jullian Taylor. And i'm hopeful that Kevin Givens & Trent Taylor can contribute this coming season too.

Once you get to day 3, you almost have to just go with BPA. This is a stacked team with very good depth, so you go with someone who at least has a chance to make the roster. You can't just pinpoint one position. What I wouldn't rule out is trading down from #31 and taking someone like Chase Claypool in the 2nd round. Seems like a Shanny move. He will then use Claypool as a hybrid TE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justone2 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I am not advocating we should draft Love or any QB other than Tua or Burrow if for some magical reason either of those drops to 13. However i am just saying i wouldn't be totally suprised. This FO has done suprising things a lot and this would be one of those scenarios. I think we should go with one of the top 3 OT's(not a big Becton fan) or one of the top 3 WR's at 13. However what i would like even more is trading down a little to say the bottom of the teens and get one or two day two picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why he was learning the F role last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mullens is a backup. Cj is a FA after the year. With increased roster sizes, 3 QBs isn't bad at all. If James Morgan slips into the fifth, I have no problems whatsoever with that pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean Hurd can be used everywhere, but he won't be lining up at TE as much as Chasepool. And with Hurd, you have to operate with the belief of he's not giving you anything. He has to prove he is over the back injury and will stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I mentioned the possibility of taking a QB when all the reports came out about the team being interested in Brady and Shanny not believing in Jimmy's potential etc. But I think all that will end up just being noise. I don't see a QB being drafted with one of the early picks. BUT, going forward Jimmy will have to make strides or else Shanny won't be afraid to go into another direction. The team gave themselves that flexibility by not restructuring his deal. Now let's see how hell bent Shanny will be in getting his favorite WR in this draft. Will he use the #31 pick to trade up in the top 10 or will he decide to trade down to accumulate more picks? If the latter, then it makes more sense trading down with the #13 pick. As for the top three tackles, I watched a little of Jones and he looks good himself. That could be a trade down target later in the first round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John232 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I have no evidence to back this up, but I feel that Hurds injury was bad, but not bad enough to where he had to sit out the year, it was a medical redshirt. When he sustained the injury it didn't seem like a "thing" that was immediately addressed. it was like a slow drip of news with all the other weekly reports that come out. Furthermore, the offense is notoriously hard on receivers and I think it gives rookies a really rough start to their careers to start here. As for the offense vs defense debate, couldn't have said it better than @J-ALL-DAY. I was starting to write up a really long post on this, but I relented. As heartbreaking as this past year was becasue of the end result, it was an insanely fun season and we flexed in a big way. Bosa, Warner, AA, Deebo, Kittle. Lots of very young talent that can very much continue our current success. If our defenses dominance was predicated on some older players over performing or something akin to the earl 2010's 49ers where it really began with JUST our front seven, I'd be more nervous about our ability to sustain, but we're a young team that has consistently drafted well and consistently brings in bargain bin players that play over their skills. We have a great coaching staff and a good FO. I am not worried about us and won't be for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with the amount of issues we had with our receivers before the Sanders trade, Hurd's presence could have been used. But I do hope it was more of the team being precautious than Hurd truly having a legitimate back injury for the entire season. Still, it is one of those need to see it to believe it cases with him. Excited to see him back on the field! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 Every time I run a mock draft, I end up with Okudah or a tackle at 13 lol. I haven't ended up with a receiver once yet Usually end up with Reagor at 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked good@The Senior Bowl and though he has issues with his footwork, there's alot of upside to develop into a legit starting caliber LT. 31 is a reach for him but if we don't trade down and accumulate picks, its good pick there addressing the future imo.

Chrissooner49er Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Reagor is tempting, but the guy's glaring weakness is blocking. He'll get in someone's way, but not much for getting in their grill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, the receivers have been there, but it's more about the likes of Okudah and Wirfs being there instead. Using the fanspeak one. Higgins has been gone by 31 in the drafts. I don't love Reagor, but I do think that he's a guy that Shanny would like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
