Niners 2022 Draft Crushes

lp1986 · 2022-04-18T17:47:44-07:00

OL Tyler Smith Tulsa 6'5" 324 Draft Projection: 2nd Round Massive, mobile, powerful. Smith is a menace in the run game who posted a 93.3 run block grade in PFF. He's exceptionally raw but has as much upside as any OL in the draft. I think you can plug him in as a starter at RG and potentially have him replace McGlinchey at RT. The rub? The Niners almost certainly need to trade up into the early 2nd to grab him. DE Drake Jackson USC 6'3" 254 Draft Projection: 2nd Round Explosive edge who's just scratching the surface of his potential. Jackson improved each year at USC and is a complete DE to complement Nick Bosa. He'd probably require trading up 5-10 spots. S Jaquan Brisker Penn St. 6'1" 200 Draft Projection: 2nd Round Brisker is a blur who plays with speed, power and tenacity. He's a complete S who is equally adept at filling in the run game as he is manning up with TEs and RBs. He'd be a great weapon to pair with Jimmie Ward. He could fall to the late 2nd, but likely would require a move up to grab him. DE Sam Williams Ole Miss 6'4" 261 Draft Projection: 3rd Round Williams has all the traits of a dominant edge rusher and really came in his last year at Ole Miss, registering 12.5 sacks. He's inconsistent and not reliable in the run game and because of that he likely falls into the 3rd because of a very deep edge class. With that said, he's got as much potential as anyone. S Kerby Joseph Illinois 6'1" 208 Draft Projection: 3rd Round Joseph is a ball-hawking S with extremely long arms and huge mits which translated in 5 INTs last year. He's not as consistent in the run game and profiles more as an FS so there's a question of he fills as big of a need for SF. WR Danny Gray SMU 6'0" 186 Draft Projection: 4th/5th Round Gray has 4.3 speed but unlike other blurs at WR he's exceptionally smooth, knowing how to get open. That and he's a demon with the ball in his hands. His long arms and sinewy build will remind many of a poor man's Brandon Aiyuk. CB Alontae Taylor Tennessee 6'0" 199 Draft Projection: 4th/5th Round Taylor is a physical CB who loves to stick his nose and support in the run game and challenge WRs at the line of scrimmage. His long arms (over 32") and speed (4.36) make him a potential sticky man cover corner. At very least he profiles as an elite gunner in the return game in his first year.

Channing Tindall- I know we don't need a LB but this dude is a baller. Despite never starting at Georgia. If we traded Greenlaw i'd be all over this guy!.

Jerome Ford- there are a few RBs I like in this draft but I keep finding myself watching Jerome Ford highlights/games.

Kadofi Wright- LB from Buffalo. Side line to side line. Dude can make plays in run game and passing game. LB isn't need but could be after this year.

Not quite a crush yet but close
TE Daniel Bellinger San Diego St
CB Decobie Durant South Carolina st
