So many good players to take at 9th, make your head spin. But I keep going back to what is one of the biggest needs—pressure on the qb. It's a premium position to fill. If you want a good one, you have to spend a high draft pick in the first round.

Pressure on the qb at ninth. Fill the rest of the needs with the other picks.
Anyone followed PFF's mock draft in the past? They have an unusual mock with Chubb, Nelson, R Smith and some other guys falling past the niners, who they have taking Landry. I've never followed them but it seems really off. Of course, if you put four QBs in the top six then some of these guys will drop. The niners might be able to trade back and still get their pick of CBs (Jackson, Ward) WR (Sutton, Washington, Ridley) or OLBs (Landry, Davenport, Edmunds). Just a ton of talent at the second level...not elite.

Less monies?

It's ok guys, we're still a little over $66.624M under the 2018 cap, and that's before any potential credits. The NFLPA should release that within the next few days.

Credits?

Its not a mock draft? Your post was a waste of time.

LOL! You misread the post, assumed it was a mock in a team needs thread and are now being rude...how very surprising!

Edit: Oh shoot! Please don't read this...I'd hate to waste more of your time!

i expected better quality in your posts. I'd make sure to put you on ignore so I won't make this mistake again.

You guys made me hard. Thanks!!

Bro the last three drafts we have gone D-Line in the first. It's not working for us

Just because the past drafts haven't resulted in players like Aldon, doesn't mean you don't keep trying to get some good athletes at that position. Just like QB, even though we had Joe Montana, Walsh kept drafting and signing free agent QB's until he got Steve Young. Then he stopped drafting QB's. The edge rusher is almost as important as QB, and you try to keep upgrading and have a deep depth at that positon as long as you can.

That's nonsense, it's true it's a premium position, but guys are found later in the draft that can do it well every year. Carl Lawson last year, Yannick Ngakoue, Everton Griffen, DeMarcus Lawrence.

This year Jeff Holland, Duke Eijofor will certainly go outside the 1st round. Okonwronkwo probably will, and I still like Hercules Mata'afa.

There are options outside of picking at #9.

Sure there are options, but you have to play the probabilities. Sure there is Kurt Warner, never drafted, and won championships, but the odds of that happening again are pretty slim, vs picking a QB in the first pick of the first round. It's *higher* odds of picking a franchise QB in the first pick of the first round than anywhere else. It's not foolproof, but the alternate is getting a dart board and putting pictures of the edge rushers on it, blindfolding yourself and throwing darts. Or maybe going to the local zoo and renting a monkey for a day and let him pick. Odds of getting a decent edge rusher is higher in the 1st round than anywhere else. I wish it were otherwise, but there's no avoiding that fact.

LOL.

On another note, it appears Norwell to Giants is all but a done deal, and yes it's not the legal tamper period yet, I seriously hate the whole thing, just start FA March 1 or the day after the Combine, why wait a week, makes no sense.

On Allen Robinson, and Trumaine Johnson, looks like Johnson will be a 49er, and Robinson, idk, here's my thinking, between us and Chicago.

As Robinson or any WR who would you rather sign with.

QB- Garoppolo or Trubisky
HC/OC- Kyle or Nagy
Location- Santa Clara, CA or Chicago, IL
Closer to winning- 49ers or Bears
Cap Room- $70M vs $42M(Before including Kyle Fuller's transition tag number)

Seriously, not a hard decision, 49ERS are clear winner in every category, JImmy G, Kyle(one of the best, if not the best, offensive minds in the NFL), Sunny CA, 49ers closer, and we have more cap room.

I rest my case.

Just realized everyone thinks I'm marathe, so of course I wouldn't put Paraag Marathe as my name or handle.

Why would you wanna go under that alias anyhow? Joan from Payroll is the bigger celebrity.
