What are the best/deepest positions in this years draft? I know the quarterback class sucks. I believe this may be another really good receiver class.
What other positions are suppose to be good in this draft? I know we could use some defensive linemen so I'm hoping we have a lot to choose from..

WR is super deep. Cooper, Parker and White lead the top tier, but there are about a dozen prospects projected in rounds 2-3 that could end up being big time playmakers.
CB is another position that isn't top heavy, but has about 10 prospects that could be had in the 2nd-3rd rounds that could be solid starters.

according to CBS: WR, CB
top-heavy: OT
some kind of deepness: DT, DE, RB.
very thin: QB, TE

So does that mean we wait on RB/WR and go DE early... I for one would not be disappointed if we got Gurley or Gordon because I believe both are elite...
Seattle giving Lynch top money > drafting Gurley or Gordon
Way better for Niner fans...

Or look at Justin Forsett with the Ravens (Kubiak again, 7th-rounder), Lamar Miller (4th-rounder), Jeremy Hill (2nd-rounder), Jamaal Charles (3rd-rounder), CJ Anderson (undrafted?), Murray (3rd-rounder).
If we lacked at RB ovr like the Lions, I would strongly consider us to go after a power-RB in round 1 or 2. But we got Hyde; Hunter, if he is at 100% again, should be a very solid #3RB. Either extend Gore or pick up Ryan Mathews during the FA or draft a RB in round 3 or 4. That should do it.
