Do we keep our top pick or trade down?

So if we're top 5, then we take whoever is left of these guys, I think all 5 are All Pro's in the NFL.

If we trade down, then these are who I would look at, of course I wouldn't go beyond pick 10 if trading down.

Laquon Treadwell
Vernon Hargreaves III
Jalen Ramsey
Tyler Boyd
Jared Goff

Good post!

Any one of those guys would be a major asset and an immediate starter who could actually play.

Trent's trading down for more picks would be a very bad fit this year.

We need to get a big-time player w/the 1st pick.

I think Bosa goes #1.

i'm hoping for Tunsil or Nkemdiche

INDEED!!

AGREED

Keep it for Lynch, Cook, or Goff. Then trade back into the 1st for an ILB or OT.

In relation to the current draft value chart, which is what most trades are based on. If you traded #10 for instance, for #20, #52, and #84, which is close value wise to the chart I think, you'd have much better chance of success taking the later picks. Of course there has to be a team willing to give three picks for one. Even if they offer less than chart value, it's a good deal, but it would depend on how much less. Most GMs won't go too far below draft chart value in a trade, and if they think the other team is desperate they ask for more.

I get the draft value chart but it's not always relevant...case in point we moved up from 31st to 18th for Reid and only gave up a 3rd?

I think a lot of it depends who the team that's trading up wants.

IMO Goff is a better prospect with higher floor and ceiling. And Lynch is probably going to be a Brown anyway.

Goff is right in the backyard so the Niners should have read on his talent. Only problem is do you trust this organization evaluating a QB?

We have plenty of picks and cap space for some interesting FA activity. Not keen to trade down at all.

Neither am I.

The niners need impact players, where ever they can be found. My preference would be for the niners to keep their first and trade up with all their other picks to try and end up with six picks in the first three rounds. If that included trading a player or two...fine.

If they trade down it would be with the assumption they get the same value at the lower pick, 15?, than they would get at five. Since the draft is a crap shoot at times I wouldn't doubt that is possible. Baalke is best at evaluating defensive players so if they are going DB (Ramsey vs Hargreaves) or LB (Smith vs Ragland) he would be able to make that pick. Not sure you need to draft a ZBS OT high in the first...so if they go OL they could trade back for a smart superior athlete who could be developed quickly.

But if any of the top five or so fall and Baalke rates them as can't miss impact players...jump!

Agreed

I hate qbs in the first unless it's obvious like it was for luck. If you miss it kills you for a long time. If you take a lineman and it goes bad your not in the s**t house for a few years.

This team is in dire need of offensive playmakers. We look like a college team out there when we have the ball.

my apprehension is he won't.

If the draft goes like most people think:

TRADE DOWN!!!


There is a TON of great talent being mocked in the late first & early 2nd. Taylor Decker, Connor Cook, Tre'Davious White...

And if they want to be riverboat gamblers, Nkemdiche & Aldophus Washington are great talents with character concerns (which is why I'd probably say to stay away).

There's a lot of talented players in the top 50. Those are guys you can build around. Granted, the stars are usually found in the top 20.

I've got no problem dropping back into the 15-20 range and grabbing the BPA. We can use that 2nd pick to do the same thing and grab a player that surprisingly fell out of the first.
