Geek's Post-FA and Post-Combine Mock Plan

Landry at 19 is good value at pos of need. Smith at G is a good scheme fit and good possibility he starts by end of season. Like Nwosu and he and Landry push each other. Hill is the ideal kind of developmental prospect that Sherman can groom.
Liking this.

19?
great job geek! I do think the Nwoso pick is a little overkill at the position but if you feel he is a difference maker, why not

Filled all the needs and empty depth positions. I am a really big fan of Burks. Our future WLB.

Holton will is also a guy i really like. With Sherman teaching him, he could become quite the contributor in his rookie year

Thanks. Nwoso may be overkill but Attaochu is too big of a question mark to remain healthy for the year. Assume you lose him 8 games in, then you are basically dependent on Landry and Marsh at both DE spots on passing downs.

Looking at the Eagles, there's no such thing as overkill for pass rush.

I like turning a weakness like pass rush into a potential strength. I'd be a little worried about our LB's because Foster will no doubt be suspended but can't fix everything. Really nice job!

I wouldn't worry about the LB situation too much. We should have high confidence that Coyle can spot start if Foster is suspended. And there's plenty of 2 down LBs available in FA still - Derrick Johnson, Kevin Minter, and even Bowman. So if Foster is suspended, we can easily snag a guy like Johnson as a interm depth solution.

LB: Landry/Pita
LB: Coyle/Johnson/Lee (SUSP - Foster)
LB: Smith/Burks

Additionally, we'd only be in that formation for 1-2 downs. For our 4-2-5 scheme, we could easily bring Tartt or Reed down to play LB and fill the Foster void.

Love your first 3 picks especially Braden Smith. I think he is ideal for what Shanahan wants from his tackles.

Not sure we spend a high pick on Hill who has character issues. After the Reuben Foster debacle this off-season I think we steer clear of those kind of guys.

Yeah Hill is a risky pick, but it'd be much more calculated vs. Williams or Foster. Swap Hill for Meeks if you are that concerned, but I think Hill will be fine in the NFL.
