2016 NFL Draft Thread:

[Montalban]

I'm a Duck fan, didn't miss a game. Great pass rusher, could be better at run defense(needs to work on pad level).
He's tough off the edge, 6'8 and long. He and Arik will be good together.

Good to hear because with Chip Kelly's offense I expect that defense will be on the field a lot.

 

[purguy12]

I am with you. Why trade up for a guard?

Oline sucks. I understand the move. We just gave a little too much for him. This kid will start by mid season or week 1. We all have to know this kid was high on the 49ers board.

That's why I was pissed we traded back into the first to get a OG!! And then give away your #37 when he would've been around for a lot longer than where we picked him. So no 2nd rounder now, effing ridiculous.

I know the Oline is horrible, but would he have been available at pick #37? He should start on week 1.

So you'd trade back into the 1st for a guard that had a middle 2nd round grade? Not sure I'll understand that logic.

we don't know if he would be. My best guess is yes. I think plans changed when Denver took Lynch. I thought they would move back in no matter what but once denver took lynch Kap trade was gone. So they wanted to take their guy. Im ok with that. yes it was a little high but hey we improved in 2 areas today. Not bad. Now I thought taking Jack would of been nice. Top 10 talent falling that fall because of his knee that is 90% healthy right now. Long term not so great(we think).

Overall im ok with the moves. We got a Stud DL and a Good to maybe very good Guard. Only problem our biggest weakness is still RT unless AD comes back or Brown is the real deal.

49ers loved this kid. This kid is talented. Only problem he had was against Buckner when he went inside. Guess what we drafted Buckner.

Agreed!! Just don't understand what seems to go thru Baalke's head!

 

[purguy12]

I just don't understand the madness. We have a bad Oline and we draft a OL and people don't like it. The kid is good. We improved today.

So, he's good enough to trade back into the 1st to get? I'm not gonna even say it's not a need, because it is. Just trying to understand why the need to waste picks when he could been drafted at the spot we gave away.

 

[Louie26]

Not the point, trading back into the first to get this guy is my issue!

 

[purguy12]

I think the Denver Trade screwed with baalke a little and he wanted his guy.

I'm not mad at the pick. I'm just perplexed why you would move up back into the 1st round and select a player you could probably have selected with the 37th pick. It's not like there was a run on OG. Like Louie stated, I don't see the logic. I just don't understand Baalke. We improved the OL and DL, but we still have Kap or Gabbert as QB. So we will be picking in the top 10 or maybe top 5 next year.

 

[RobertPhD01]

Need 2 more playmakers in this draft!!

 

[Louie26]

I think waking up screws with Baalke!

You're right. Maybe Baalke panicked or just blanked out.

U go get your guy. We have no clue if he would be there. He was the next best OLmen on the board. Yes I agree its a little much. Like I said 2nd 5th and 6th should of got it done.

No offense Purguy, but the last thing we need is another injured linebacker. If he's that good, NO WAY he falls out of the first round, even with an injured knee.

 

[purguy12]

You're right. Maybe Baalke panicked or just blanked out.

no Im saying once Denver drafted Lynch, Kap trade was over. Why draft a QB and pay 3 QBs around what would it be 25+ mill for 3 QBs on your roster. I still think they take a QB later in the draft.

 

[BOB11]

I'm so disgusted. I guess the plan is to continue scoring 14 points a game. Not saying we don't need OL help,but we have the two worse Qbs in the league and they aren't getting any better. I have a hard time seeing us win more then 1 game next season.
