Because he was rated highly on the internets ESPN etc.
But EMW is not a free safety, not good in pass coverage, so not too valuable to 49ers

No that was a great trade for us.
To move up 45 spots to 107 for moving back 12 spots to 70 is good value.

Maybe because our safteys suck outside of Mustapha
But EMW wouldnt solve that. We need a free safety.
I agree but I'd rather have EMW out there rather than Brown.I'd shift Mustapha to FS
Bud Clark and go honestly they have bigger issues than S play imo. They can't rush the passer and for the first time ever aren't address it

they did
I don't like it that they had to give up one of their 5th round picks.

We should just trade every pick. Who actually needs players? Is this an admission that they can't reliably identify talent, so they are going with the throwing spaghetti against the wall method? Just draft a bunch of late round guys and hope some of them don't suck? This is inspired.

id rather have both those guys. 😂
Niners keep thinking they're smarter. They're not. They needed top level guys but they're aiming for average players since they keep trading back.
I like these trade backs.
They just need to select the right players.
That being said the work is done now and they should be picking now at 70, 90, and 107

Just keep doing it.
We're getting more players.
And you, sir, obviously don't know your knots.

this is a historically bad draft
the top talent ended after 15 or so picks
there is no clear 2nd then 3rd tier of talent
everything up to 100 ish is in the same tier
it was talked about repeatedly pre draft

the fact that we traded down again tells me that they've got another player that they expect no one else to draft at 70 aka a reach

The trade backs haven't been an issue. What happens when we do make a pick, though...

Dont sleep on Zxavian Harris at some point. They showed a lot of interest in him.
