John Lynch - 49ers GM

Pearsall NEVER found the endzone. Not even 1 time. All year long. Plus he's always injured and missing games. That's not a 1st round pick. Mykel Williams is a beast at setting the edge with power and length. But not much pass rush ability. He had 1 sack. Now he has a knee injury and we don't know how much that will effect him. Because power, strength and setting the edge come a lot from having a very strong base (your legs). If you are injured or recovering you may not be the same. His greatest strength and reason for being out there may now be compromised.

Now do the 2nd round for more laughs Though not as bad as 1st and 3rd rounds

Your list also doesn't include the additional picks traded away to move up for those players. Truly awful stuff man

Dude he was the 31st pick in the 1st rd, barely a 1st rd pick. Get over it.

JJ was 4th in the league in receiving TDs…should we pay him top 10 money??

BTJ went from 1,300 yards and 10 TDs to 700 yards and 2 TDs in 14 games.

You realize there's a connection between not playing due to an injury all yr (which you're clearly don't understand how a PCL affects a player) and not scoring a TD. I won't even get into the Williams injury.

Can you just admit you have no understanding of the nuances of different injuries.

Why would it? The post was about how bad our 3rd round picks were and I wanted to add context to that discussion.

And 2nd round picks aren't as bad for the simple fact that we haven't had a ton of them.

2018
Dante Pettis

2019
Deebo

2021
Aaron Banks

2022
Drake Jackson

2024
Renardo Green

2025
Alfred Collins

Pettis and Drake the only clear busts and both of those weren't talent issues. Pettis just didn't take the game seriously enough and Jackson couldn't stay healthy.

You answered the question yourself. The added picks surrendered adds context to how bad the 3rd round picks were, but it makes it worse; which is why I'm thinking you didn't want to provide that type of context lol

Pettis was also a trade up; just giving you more context

There's some bad picks in there 100%

I do think fans in here don't look at most of the teams and their picks….If they did, they would see a collection of mostly bad picks or players that amounted to not much all the same.

What I find very hypocritical in here, is we have fans telling all of us that we blow at drafting AND have a bad coach…yet most yrs we're going to the playoffs/NFCC or SB, So which is it? We can't have a s**t roster full of bad picks AND a horrible coach.

It's a young talent deprived roster leaning heavily on old injured stars with an elite coach that makes up for it

This. I'm not one of those and I agree with you. Shanny is an elite coach but seems to be a terrible talent evaluator. Personally I believe that he's looking too much into guys who fit his scheme rather than just straight up talent. I think the scheme fitting is what causes all the reaching.
