Pick 7- Ezekial Elliot- Good RB's make OL jobs and qbs job easier. Elliot Hyde punch could be good.
Pick 38- My draft crush hunter Henry TE- Chip Kelly uses multiple TE sets. The Niners need a stud TE in red zone.
Pick 3rd round, Dominick Jackson, RT Alabame
4th round pick- Vernon Adams QB Oregon
Hate it in so many ways!
Elliot is the best RB in the draft but Hyde and Ellior are basically the same type of RB...both are workhorses that can't split carries, both need 15-20 touches a game to wear teams down. Also your not gonna draft a player (at 7) especially a RB to split carries not happening.
Chip runs more 3 & 4 WR sets that two TE sets. We drafted TWO TEs last season and resigned Celek. once again we aren't drafting someone that high to play in limited snaps. Hunter is so over rated because this draft is so weak at TEs.
Jackson doesn't have the length to play RT nor does he have the athleticism to play OG in chip's system....dude is ranked as a UDFA in CBS rankings and you think he's worth a 3rd?
Adams while a competitor simply doesn't have the size to play QB at the next level. He has to scramble to find throwing lanes and couldn't even hold up a full season at OU.
People try to compare him to Wilson but Wilson is more compact (has like 10lbs on Adams) and his hand size is much bigger than Adams. I have no issue bringing him in as a UDFA or possibly spending a 6th on him, but hell no to a 4th round pick
sorry not trying to be a dick, but this would down right awful.
