I like a lot of the players you selected here and I also hope we can bring back Reid on a 1 year deal.

A lot of trades you made here. Wouldn't be upset at all of it worked out this way. Always look forward to the work you put in to these man.

Thanks man. We are still in rebuild more even with JG at the helm as QB. 2019 is where we will get aggressive in FA.
Not sure if you know, but Toth has a 2 year commitment to the army, and won't be available right away. It's a bummer, as I think hed be an excellent addition, but not for a 5th round pick with that large of an asterisks next to his name.

It's been mentioned before but people have gotten passes on that 2 year commitment before.
- EDGE, LB, CB, WR, and OL are positions of greatest need due to lack of talent and/or depth.

That's what you put near the top and yet, in your draft, you double up at the TE position and draft an OT who has a two year military commitment to fulfill first.

First three picks and your LB picks are solid. Think you could go interior OL earlier and then draft a developmental OT late who will actually be playing next year.

I believe this year, the army changed the rule, and the exemption is no longer allowed.

Swap him for Sam Jones - C/G - Arizona St, and there you go
Looks awesome.
I'm a big fan of a lot of those picks.
I love it, I would take that in a heartbeat. If I did a mock it woukd probably be very similar.

I would like to see O line addressed sooner. I'd pick the best of Ragnow, Braden Smith, best available instead of the tight end. Love the rest.

That's fair and I did think of that before making the rest of the picks. However, it seems like this staff has high confidence in Staley-Tomlinson-Cooper-Brown as our starting 5. Garnett is basically that early round pick, but just went through a "redshirt" year.

As much as I personally would want to pick OL sooner, we may just punt on trying to find succession 1-2 years out vs. address core team voids and provide Garoppolo with weapons.

The army didn't change the rule; the president did. Releasing professional athletes from their 2 year commitment was an Obama policy to aid in recruitment. The athletes can go to their new town and play, but they have to work in a recruiting office in their downtime. Who doesn't want to sign their contract with a player on their favorite team.

Not sure why the policy was reversed. It seemed like a smart exchange: you give up the rights to one troop, but they attract dozens/hundreds more.
Why would we trade AA for a conditional pick? This generally means a low pick. Rookie salary, on a prove-it year, I see no point in this.
