There goes Prescott to the Cowboys. Niners must feel really good with Gabbert and Kaep.

yaaahh!

i thought this would be the spot for US to take him, oh well.

Another CB hmmm...I guess we forgot we have the worst offense in the league?

Well apparently just having chip kelly makes your offense a top 5 unit because he doesn't need talented players that fit his scheme just cbs and de's

It's pretty maddening but I think Baalke thought process was with no Goff/Wentz none of these guys are better than our current situation. Which is kind of hard to believe but then again sticking a rookie in our offense with our line with no WRs really is a lot to ask and they would probably fail.

Still I thought they would draft SOMEONE, at least to develop or see if it works out.

Does this mean we have to listen to "QB BATTLE IN SF!" for the next few months? And it's between Kap and Gabbert

i think we have enough rb's but we need to draft a qb but Adams is still on the board and that is who we are going to draft

Another CB? WTF baalke?

although i wanted Prescott, there are still possibilities today....example is Hogan or Brandon Allen or ???

Again, if this CB was best value, i'm ok with it. This is better than drafting for Need, for the sake of Need.

It wasn't going to go well with Connor Cook either. Although QB is our most glaring issue, it really isn't one that would solve all of the problems.

Having said that, I was hoping they would grab Cook. They would have had to trade up for him which I thought they might. But then the Raiders grabbed him, which I don't think anyone could have predicted.

Of course QB won't solve all our problems... loading up on CB's will... since we already have a pile of them.

Wow talk about upside on this CB. They say he has lock down ability. Had some off the field issues.

Well we have Depth in secondary now. We have a lot of CB's on this roster.

Can you find anyone who didn't think this kid would slide into the 6th round because of character issues? I see no projection out there of him being taken in the 4th round. Best player available?

I don't mind the move up to grab Garnett ahead of his draft status if they thought they might lose him to Seattle or someone else... but this seems like a reach to me.

I think they are going adams next rd. Adams is their guy. Why not take a flyer on him. He worked in oregon offense and suppose to be an accurate QB. I don't like his height but lets see what he can do.

 

[Number7]

I wouldn't be shocked if we don't even draft a QB at this point.

Or maybe we're waiting til the 6th and hoping a Brady like pick works out.

More likely they didn't like any QBs this year and will just...wait?

 

[Number7]

Here we go...

 

[purguy12]

If he's ready for camp, then he can compete for the starting CB opposite of Brock or can play nickel. Niners do have a glut of DB's and safeties. Maybe Bethea will be traded or cut and have Ward or Taart play safety with Reid. Anyways, competition never hurts.

I think Bethea is out and Baalke mention about Ward playing some Safety. They are going to use him in both spots. I think baalke hinted that Ward would be the back up safety so I have to guess Bethea is gone.

 

[purguy12]

I know, the entire bs story about our secondary being young and talented and making the next step just ruins that entire narrative. The cowboys just drafted Dak so now we are definitely getting Vernon Adams.

Adams or Hogan. They met with Hogan 3 times.

 

[elw4corps]

Wow another de? how about an ilb Baalke or a WR or a god damn qb

 

[Number7]

I just don't know at this point. Hopefully our defense is top 10 or something lol.

don't know, at this point in the draft we haven't read anything on these guys.

again, IF he's the best left, i'm ok with it. Just that i can't post anything about him.

 

[deep9er]

we're not getting quality starters in Round 5, or at least the odds aren't. But building good depth (at this stage in the draft) makes sense, knowing how much they'll be on the field.

 

[purguy12]

Yeah they are going heavy on D. Weird. Blair is an DE/DT

Yeah why not ILB or OLB.

 

[deep9er]

maybe, but think he meant 2017?

anyway, we do have a crowded backfield and Bethea just might be traded? IF this Hammond guy flashes enough talent, maybe?
