Overall, he said "I guess it's an OK draft."

But back to basics, when you got the one blue chipper of the draft, or 1 of the 2 or 3, then you MAKE that pick. Surely there was a lot of talk about turning Bosa into two picks. AGain, well done, John.
That pick alone , a true Buckner like pick, makes this draft at least a B draft. Maybe a B- but none the less, a B draft. So scorched by last yrs no 2nd rd pick, i correctly guessed we would trade up into rd 2 ....and dam if we didn't. I could see that OG or OG/C being right there. Right in the middle of the OL protecting our FRANCHISE. And then... up pops Pettis. Welp, no OL in the 2nd in 2018. I kinda lost my focus after that not believing we wouldn't be getting an OL in rd 2...adn our next pick at #66 was after all OL starters were gone. Couldn't tell you much of what happened after that. /
So 2019, 1st rd, our guys did the right thing....and it wasn't easy....to take Bosa, BANG. We did. Now for the OG , Risner, that our OL had to have...still after last yrs. el foldo. Deebo? DEEEBBBOOOO? You gotta be kiddding me. No S, no OG, starter and we take dEEEEBO? Like last yr, after that I lost my focus and interest, not believing they would leave a $137 mil man out there at Qb, unprotected. 126 hits. 115 hits on our QBs the yr before. Could this really be happening? Shucks, still got an early 3rd and Sonof....Hurd...WHAT? After that i put the sound off and took a hike. Couldn't bring myself to see anymore and preferred to read about it.
Looks to me like we got 3 starters with Whisnoswhatshisname, altho technically we didn't have need for another #2 and #3 WR. That is doubles. I get it, we need someone who can get open before 2 seconds, the max this line can give to JImmyG. Certainly we could do better with starting OGs, and we have neither. But once again, we get aced out...or i did and i think the team did. Not my team tho so kyle makes the moves. I sure hope this works because if not, we are back in 2017...not 2018 but 2 yrs ago on pass pro.
so we get a punter in rd 4...surprise but iif as good as stated, fine... a starter is a starter. And we got Bosa. So a B- draft. I hope the WRs work out because if not, we don't have near enough QBs to make it thru the season. And i learned that guessing what kyle is going to do is pointless. He marches to his own drum. Dang i hope he is right and Deebo and Hurd are open every play. If not, I won't be a spoil sport and continue to remind everyone about it. I'll pull for them all.
But MD, how on earth you can do this massive amount of work yr in yr out, just amazes me. I must be triply troubling to someone like you who has such a great feel for this. Me? I'm just a shclocker who doesn't know beans about the intricacies of drafting. Great job man. I admire good, well thot out work.

And you completely missed the point. AJ Brown was a much more productive receiver in college than Deebo was. And it's not even close.

Good to hear from you, brother. I think you hit it right with three starter (Bosa, Samuel, and Wishnowsky).
It is quite a journey each year. Lots of 4AM mornings or late, late nights. I try to make an honest evaluation of 400 players each year by watching at least 6 games each (for the top players I want to watch at least 9-12 games). I think a lot of "experts" shortcut the process, or attach themselves to groupthink (Ex: most experts thought Mack Wilson was a top 5 graded LB, and I had him as 5th round value...he just isn't that good).
I am really excited about this next year's group. Should be some really good DL again and the Secondary should be strong. Fun group of WRs to follow.
And, people are delusional if they think Tua is going number one. His arm strength is a huge question mark at the next level. There simply is not enough juice on the ball. Herbert is the guy to watch. The ball comes off their hands radically different.

Solved
(Not a knock on MadDogs review at all, I look forward to his stuff)
I had about as much NFL front office experience as Lynch when he got hired
This is a discussion forum. People are allowed to have discussions regarding these topics. Besides, there's a reason most analysts, scouts, etc. had these players ranked and projected where they were. These weren't just subjective lists put together with no logic behind them.

What's a bad grade when 99% of the grades are between A+ and C?

Agreed about Tua... Trevor Lawrence tho... that's another story. He's worth tanking for.
Originally posted by 49ers808:Leinart was a top pick and we see how that turned out. Tua simply doesnt have great arm strength. If you think he does you are sadly mistaken. That is what is similar to Leinart. The fact that he is left handed, surrounded by great athletes at big time programs, and over hyped helps with the comparison. Also, no one said he wont go in the 1st round. There are 3 or 4 qbs that go in the first every year. Several of us just dont think he goes 1st and I agree with Maddog that Herbert will go before him.
LOL. You guys s**tting on Tua and yet everyone that does this professionally is saying the exact opposite and saying Miami may be tanking for Tua. Matt Leinart comparison is laughable and lazy. Must be because they both left handed. I heard all this before with all the Zone experts saying Kyler Murray was impossible to go in the 1st, let alone 1st overall. Let's do this again. If Tua is healthy and enters the draft, he's going in the 1st with a high chance of 1st overall.

By the way, you arent from Hawaii are you? You just seem pretty upset about the comments on Tua.
