IMO you can't be drafting guys that you can get almost a round later, that's just not reading the draft well.

But that's what they do. Right or wrong, that's how they draft.

Definitely. But I think they were more guilty of that the first two years as opposed to the last two.

Should this thread be re-made for 2021?

Good to see SF visiting with OL and CB.

Yeah, given their guy and where most would value them, they certainly have that mantra. They don't seem to give a s**t about reading the room. If they're within striking distance, they don't leave it to chance.

Isn't that how its supposed to work though. You place a projected draft value on a player and if you want him, for *sure,* you pick him a bit earlier-- just to make sure you get him?

Agree! OL and CB have been problem spots.

Yes and no. Yes but the idea is you still want to read the room and not give free draft picks away simply because you can in a panic. How many draft picks has this regime tossed away for "their guy." Or overrated guys in a panic mode (i.e. BeatHard, Joe Williams, Wishnowsky).

This 6 year regime was given a license to just go get their guy because they had 6 years to build the roster. But now you're seeing us up against the cap and guys like Foster and Pettis are costly. And we sure could have used those extra draft picks for TODAY.

I bet you that he's dialled into the GPS speed data now, 40 time is just as much about technique, Kyle is about game speed.

Very true.
I've been hoping for Pooka late in the draft for a while. He's not very big but his speed and wiggle are awesome.

You and I are on the same page. I'm still pissed we took a punter over Chauncey Gardner Johnson
