1st Round Pick (2nd Poll, No Trade Downs)

Going with Landry this time

Nelson 33% Smith 33% Landry 34%
Landry. More likely to improve G in free agency or later in the draft than LEO which can help the rest of the defense.

I think it's likely that we'll be either 4-12 or 5-11, and picking 5-7th overall.
NOTE: I've eliminated QB, DT, S, and OT from the list as I don't see how we would select one of these positions.

Results (141 total votes):
  1. Quentin Nelson - 33%
  2. Bradley Chubb - 17%
  3. Saquon Barkley - 15%
  4. Roquan Smith - 13%
  5. Minkah Fitzpatrick - 9%
  6. Harold Landry - 7%
  7. Calvin Ridley - 4%
  8. Courtland Sutton - 3%
  9. Arden Key - 1%

Niners will be picking either 9th or 10th (TBD).

NOTE: I've eliminated QB and DT from the list, but added back in OT and S. I've also eliminated Bradley Chubb and Saquon Barkley as they are widely considered top-5 selections.

I think it's waaaay too soon to be eliminating players at #9 outside of the QB's.

Fair enough. I plan on doing several of these. I envision some players coming onto and leaving the list as we go.
Of this list Nelson, he is the elite guy and therefore BPA
Nelson, Smith, Landry, Jackson or Ridley.


Zero interest in McGlinchey who struggles immensely with speed rushers and is a right tackle all the way. Nor Key who seems to have tremendous knucklehead potential.
I thInk we'll draft Baker Mayfield to compete with Jimmy G. Then develop Baker and trade Jimmy for a 3rd rounder.
Nelson or Landry with Landry in pole position. In the highly unlikely chance they are both gone, Smith.
I wonder how much this may or may not change post-free agency

The Niners have to consider Chubb. I know, I know, he probably wont be there and theyve invested soo many picks in the Dline, but outside of Lawrence and some old or 2nd tier options DE options are thin this year in FA.

In this draft, I dont see a lot of safe picks at DE.

The safe aspect is the reason I prefer Smith over Landry. I totally understand. Maybe we trade the farm for Nick Bosa next year lol.
Landry, Jackson, Key, Smith and maybe Ferrell seem to be the best options in that range as of today. If someone like Chubb falls, then obviously it changes things, but those are the guys I'm thinking have the best shot at joining the team.
