Danny gray 2.0 but at RB

I knew the name Bech sounded familiar. This is his uncle, a WR also played at LSU and went on to play and coach in the NFL.

Niners have met with RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt multiple times apparently (shrine and Hula Bowl).

Your minds gonna be blown when you look into Shedeur.

Iinteresting player. Old prospect, 6th year senior i believe. Will cause him to drop in the draft. Hes a good pass protector, so a chance to see the field quite a bit.

Thoughts on UCLA's Femi Oladejo??? Said he played MIKE LB until his last year where he played as a DE. Apparently did very well at the senior bowl. Seems like someone that we could target in the mid rounds.

He's gotta be on our radar for sure. I believe KJ Wright coached him at the senior bowl and there is a former connection with Ken Norton Jr being his college coach.

If we're talking running backs, I really like Donovan Edwards out of Michigan. Edwards is slated to be drafted in rounds 5-7. He's a dual threat RB that compares to Antonio Gibson.

Maybe we just stay from mid to late round Michigan players for awhile...

Malaki Starks baby.

yeah, Malaki Starks is fast,.... but Andrew Mukuba is even faster and we don't need to give the 11th for him. For the moment he's considered a 3rd rounder though this can change after he runs something around 4,30-4,31 at the Combine.

49ers need FS-type of safety who excels in coverage and that's IMO Mukuba, probably the best coverage safety of the class. No doubt, better than Starks (in coverage) who is more of a strong safety kind who's the best run stopper and tackler and, probably the most complete of the lot, being also very good in coverage.

Great Pass catcher but he likes to dance in the backfield. Kyle's gonna hate that.

Mukuba is not better than Starks in coverage. Starks is worlds better in every single aspect.

If we want a safety that can cover the slot and play deep then Billy Bowman is your guy but he is not the guy who can handle the leagues top TE's. Neither is Mukuba.

You know who can cover the Kelce's of the league, play deep safety, cover the slot AND be a difference maker in the run game? Malaki Starks.

Either select BPA with 11 or trade down, K.I.S.S.

Trade down?
