Chips draft

Shop Find 49ers gear online
With the signing of kelly how do u think it will effect us in the draft? Are we going to be more aggressive or trade back now that he is the HC? Any players u think he will want that bad for trading up? He drafted OL lane Johnson when he landed in philly and I believe with our OL play last year there is a big chance we go OL like a stanly...tunsil wont drop to us but if he does its a no brainer.. I'm hearing alot of Treadwell now too...what do u guys think? How does chip change our drafting?
I guess he will discuss with Baalke who will try to accommodate his needs. More likely to take a WR high maybe. But it is still Baalke's draft. Thankfully.

I can see us going for a project WR like Pharoh Cooper or Braxton Miller somewhere in this draft. Ideally we'd use our first couple picks on D.
If we address th OL in free agency, I could see us going WR in the first, Treadwekk or Doctson
Please my god receiver. Been a drought since Owens left. Boldin was great but we need a real 1 threat.
Our line was a mess this year and he's shown hes not scared going after a lineman early in drafts... Can we really pass up a jack or Ramsey or even goff if he falls to us? Is goff he off our board for sure now?

At WR, a few vertical guys I could see Coleman, Doctson, and Fuller. Those are all trade back players
With the 1st overall pick in the Chips draft, the webzone selects.....Cool Ranch Doritos.

I doubt anyone is off their board other than possibly Nkemdiche.


People are assuming that they take a WR and bypass a QB but all that remains to be seen.


Basically BPA should be the rule of thumb. I would expect OL or DL to be the pick depending on what goes down in FA.

Chip is in charge of the draft now?

No but I'm sure he has some kind of input on it
I think the WR situation depends on how much we trust the young guys. Can Patton be an effective receiver? Will Ellington be a good deep threat and weapon to our offense? DeAndre Smelter is having a good recover? Will DeAndrew White, DiAndre Campbell and Dres Anderson be some of Baalke's great UDFA pick? Is Anquon Boldin retiring?

If Baalke/Chip don't trust them I think they spend a 1st round pick in Treadwell.
If they have mixed fellings I think they spend a 2nd(Doctson, Coleman, Boyd or Thomas) or a 3rd(Miller or Cooper).
If they trust them I think they will spend a late round pick or just wait for the UDFAs.

Yep. I need 49ers should sign our OG, OT and C in Free Agency!

We should sign for Cowboys Olines. We should steal it. The Cowboys Oline are best the protected. Um. I think, we should sign for Cowboys as Coach Oline? I am figure out.
