Here is one lineman that definitely should be on the Niners radar. Zabel comes from an FCS program with a long legacy of sending offensive linemen to the NFL. He has been playing LT for the Bison, but The Draft Network projects him as an ideal center candidate for the NFL. Either way, he would fit the Niners profile for versatile offensive linemen.

Definitely keeping my eye out in the predraft process. This is not the center class of last year. Hopefully we aren't burned by passing that position up last year. We are going to have to really be on it this year so we aren't stuck.

Most impressive player today on either team was North Dakota State OL Grey Zabel. Played every spot up front, strong anchor, powerful hands.

Exceptional practice today.
Sounds promising.

Could start at LG as a rookie.

Loved that he was splitting reps at C at SB also. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Dude was playing RG too. Had the most reps of any OL there by far.

Zabel is a beast. The stuff he put on tape at the Senior Bowl was A+++
Would not be a shock to see him sneak into the 1st. I'm hoping we are targeting him top of the 2nd if he's available.

Throw him at LG, sign Kelly to play center and draft a developmental tackle later.

Looks like he may be R1 when all is said and done. Kiper and some other draft guy on nfl live both said they now have him end of R1 post SB.

I'm at the point where if Graham isn't there, and if they aren't sold on Starks or Conerly then I'd just trade down and keep trading down and convert the added compensation into additional 2nd and 3rd round picks.

Agreed. Load up….and make sure you pick the right guys. Talent seems aplenty and comparable this year outside of a few of the top guys this year
