I've had issues with Lynch, especially in the draft, but what exactly did he fumble tonight? Be specific, not some dumb trope.

Multiple quality starters at positions of need on the board and we missed all of them

who?

Well at least lynch can't be blamed for another round 1 bust. His safest bet is not drafting. I will take the win here. Seriously though, adding more picks in this draft is fine. We were not landing anything better in round 1 anyway. We need youth, speed and size to reload both lines, the defensive backfield and receivers. Let's see what we end up with.

People like to just complain i hate to call anmes but its such a stupid take like one of the casual fan takes

Anyone who followed the draft knew that after pick 20ish the talent is extrmeelly flat for the next 20 or so pick so trading back to get more picks was definitely the right move especially if your guy was gone which looked like it was

i think Thiensman was the guy we were targeting at 27 before moving back and Rutelige at 30

Lynch did his thing last night imo. I would like Pregon, EMW, or Young @ 33.

"only 20 players with 1st round grades" from a guy who has hit on only two of five (no judgement yet on Pearsall and Mykel) first round picks so far lol. It's going to be obvious to the player they pick at #33 tonight, if they keep the pick, that the 49ers don't view him as 1st round material regardless if he said that or not, but just keep your mouth shut maybe?

I have far more trust in the 49ers than I do their detractors on this forum and elsewhere.

That may hav been true. I was hoping he would be there when they picked. When they traded back to 30 I thnk they were hoping Lomu might be there but NE probably felt that was who the Nners would take so they moved up in front of them and took Lomu at 28. Then the Niners traded out of the round.

It sucks when you're watching all the guys you were hoping the Niners might take get picked off one by one before their turn.

Well, only the ones who were taken between #27 and #33 actually count. Before 27, we didn't miss because we weren't up.

Everybody I was hoping for was gone before 27, so I'm ok with trading back. Not sure what will happen. Wish there was a top Player at a prime position that we don't need (ok - QB) that somebody wanted enough to trade up to 33, but such isn't the case.

Did anybody do the Math on the Trades?

+1 pick. In trading back from 27 to 30 we managed to turn one of our 4ths into a 3rd round pick.

In trading back from 30 to 33 we picked up a 5th round pick.

In one of these trades we actually lost out "value-wise" (given JJ's draft chart for value.)

I think we did well, but I can see that it may not appear that way to some.

Johnny played his hand well, he was looking for a day 1 starter for pass rush at #27 or be able to move up and get him... that wasn't possible so he traded back for more picks... I think we all will pleased with what we get in the 2nd round tonight

Lynch is on the clock. NFC foes Eagles, Dallas and Giants hit home runs in the first round. Those teams got so much better.

I think this is a defining draft for Lynch. If he strikes out again. He's got to go.

This type of post is just hilarious to me. We see it almost every year by someone looking to b***h.

We know nothing about these players, no matter how much hype they have going into the draft. I remember when Isiah Simmons was going to shut down Kittle and make the Cardinals a powerhouse.

First of all those 3 teams are in the NFC EAST. That's not our division. As far as our own division it couldn't have gone much better in regards to the picks our division rivals made. Love and Price may be very good RBs but that position is not a needle mover anymore and Love going 3rd overall is a horrible investment given their RB room and the guaranteed cash they automatically owe the kid. Simpson to the Rams doesn't do a damn thing for them with Stafford.

So you complaining about what NFC East teams did is just absurd. Eagles btw are going to lose AJ Brown. We'll see if Lemon is even close to him as far as talent. Yes Dallas made some really good picks on paper and their defense got better for sure. We'll see how they blow it. Giants had 2 top 10 picks. Wow what a shocker they did well in the draft.

49ers made the smart choice. They didn't have a lot of draft picks and we have a lot of needs, though nothing too pressing. Certainly not at positions that are somehow not available at pick 33.

Chill out.

Honestly think Malachi Lawrence was the pick then Caleb Lomu. IMO
