Gun to head, I don't believe we are even strongly considering an OL on day 1, but more so at pick 13. I can see OL, if they love someone at 31.. or more likely, in a trade back for a day 2 pick. Chris Jones is ridiculous, and while Person struggled greatly, this is going to happen again regardless. I doubt some rookie would stand strong alone versus Jones in the next SB, even if Wirfs, Wills, etc. I'm happy to be wrong because I love protecting the Jimmy.. but we will see soon enough. If there was ever a draft to skip WR inside the 15 and wait till 31 or day 2, this may be the one. I don't think I'll be happy if we wait beyond rd 2 for one. I wouldn’t mind Higgins if he falls into the 2nd or Pittman. That’s of course if Henderson/or Okudah (if he falls) is taken with the 13th. I’m starting to warm up to Ruggs because it sounds like Jeudy and Lamb will both be gone. I think Shanny will be able to create plays to get the ball into his hand and let him utilize his speed.

Wouldn't mind it personally if the WR options aren't there. I can't see Staley playing more than another year if he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenK Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Could this mean we are interested in Henderson or McKinney more than one of the possible receivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GW21 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Was just reading through the Javon Kinlaw AMA on BR. Someone asked him who he wanted to be drafted by and he picked us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd make my job A LOT easier. The 49ers are now a hot destination for players, which is kind of strange to think about knowing where this team was 2 years ago. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most us 49ers fans know about CB postion and the need after 2020. Not sure how they view Tartt and Moore long term. But with so few picks what we don't know is what the priority position is rd 1. Guess we have 3 day till we find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally you don’t hear players call out specific teams they want to play for prior to the draft though. Makes me kind of wonder how confident Kinlaw is that we want to bring him in. I remember Zeke saying he wanted to go to the Cowgirls and I believe Honey Badger was hoping we’d pick him up in the Harbaugh days (me too Honey Badger). Probably doesn’t mean a thing, but it is interesting he called us out specifically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope that there would have been talks either way honestly, I think Arizona snags him anyways. just my gut feeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him a decent OL and that offense could be dangerous. I think Jax takes either Brown or Kinlaw at 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 Lynch got me curious with his "six foundational guys" comment for the draft. Really curious who the niners have listed as those types Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Mortenson said talking to GMs around the league, they think Ruggs is Shanny's guy but if they want to maximize their mid-round picks, will have to move out from #13. But who trades up to our spot and for what position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People see success and they want to be it or be a part of it. It's a good time to be a 49ers fan. Edited April 21, 2020 by NinerNation21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
