Oh yeah?

Yup investing resources into DL every year and trading up for WRs when you already have limited draft picks.

Their success will be short lived at this pace.

Agree. Thank god we didn't sign these dudes to extensions.

When they drafted Dante Pettis over Christian Kirk and DJ Chark, was it the right decision?? I would've drafted them easily over Pettis no doubt about that!!!

the team needs to trade pettis , goodwin brieda today... pettis and goodwin are not needed. i hope lynch is burning up the phones begging to at least get some 6th rounders so maybe we can find a respectable o line guy and secondary guy... i would put cj in there to and hell sign a undrafted free agent qb. but sounds like cj has pictures and they will hold onto him

Better get some talent 2020


We should have 2 compensatory picks in 3rd round because of Buck and Sanders

Buck was traded so no comp picks for him. Sanders I believe will net a comp 4th or 5th


I am now even more depressed to know that we don't get a comp for Buck...

Why are you depressed?
Our receiving corps is not enough to get us a Super Bowl victory.. Lynch and Shan must have something else in mind.. No confidence in any WR other than Bourne and DeeBo as well as Kittle..

I was hoping that us having extra comp pic for Buck would help us get back into mid rounds and not lose those pics for that round.. If we have an extra 3rd and 4th, we would still have a 3rd and 4th after trading
A+ so far.
Filled two needs, one of them a very big one (DT) with players that are apparently worth the picks they have been taken with.

Next year we have to get Staley's successor at the very least.

That's detail. The guys who may or may not achieve anything. The two 1st rounders, though, are going to be impact players in my opinion. We have a strong roster, even stronger with the numerous injuries back. We did not have many spaces.

I am happy. All I want, though, is for some football to get played!

Who's gonna trade for a soft underachieving receiver who is afraid to go over the middle. The guy knows how to play, he just doesn't want to. He doesn't have the "dog"in him. You can't teach that, you either got that in you or you don't.

I don't agree with this statement, at least in part. ShanaLynchs' drafting strategies arise from their belief in building a team inside out, as opposed to outside in. Lynch, a Hall a Fame Safety, understands that his personal success arose in large part because of the play of individuals like Sapp, Quarles, Simeon Rice, and others. Lynch applied this philosophy to the 49ers. We now have Bosa for 4 years, Armstead for 3 years, Ford for 4 years, and Kinlaw for 5 years. We also replaced about 30 million a year in salary for Buckner/Sanders with rookie contracts over the next two years, which we can put towards extending our players or signing free agents. We obviously missed on Thomas, which led to having to put more resources into the position group. But, the dline was our strength last year and a big reason we made the super bowl. You can't argue with it because so far, it's worked. These picks replace our two biggest needs for this upcoming year, while keeping salary cap to make moves with the number of players that will be free agents after next year - Kittle, Sherm, Tartt, Spoon, Eman, Jus, Thomas, K'Wuan - and Jimmy and Warner after the following year. This I believe is what Shanahan was referring to in his press conference when he spoke about helping with free agency moving forward. They also understand a limited number of draftees will make the team this year.

In regards to WR, I do understand some of your angst. Shanahan seems to miss on a lot of "his players" e.g. Beathard, Williams, and Pettis, who he traded up to take. I am having flashbacks to 2017 unfortunately. My hope is Shanahan learned from his past mistakes, primarily targeting the wrong type of person as opposed to skill level. Pettis and Williams clearly do not have the right mentality to make it in the NFL - I hope Aiyuk does.

i am just hoping some team out there over values those guys like some of our fans do. lol.. if we can not find a buyer.. that is proof that lynch and kyle f**ked up badly by getting goodwin and esp trading up to get pettis..
We could've used Jeudy and Brooks I thought they would've helped out immediately. Not sure about Kinlaw's bum knees and Aiyuk just yet. Damn you Lynch we need better choices from you

You're kidding right? Brooks? The guy Seattle drafted? Seattle must be concerned Wagner is on his way out... him and Wright both...

filled a big need at WR but totally ignored the 2 biggest positions of need on our roster. OG an CB. For a player we didn't need too. We don't have enough picks to get a starter at those positions in rounds 2 or 3 anymore. A goodwin trade won't net us enough either.

Next season We will have to make a mid season trade for a starter at CB or OG like we did last year with sanders if we want to go far. Watch.



Or they simply like what they have with Moseley and Brunskill.


Ya but how'd that workout in the super bowl. It didn't.
I want another super bowl win not another division or conference title

He's a SEA fan, so take what he says with a grain of salt
