Linebackers coach Johnny Holland, the former Packer, couldn't believe what happened. "I thought he'd be a top five pick. He's one of the best three, four linebackers to come out of college football in the last 10 years."


Agree. Foster for me

I love a lot of the picks. Wish I could choose several of them.

But if Kyle picks a QB, then yeah, I'm stoked. So CJ it is. Our QB Guru picked a QB.

If Foster turns in to a pro bowler can you imagine SeaHawks will be complaining the whole time on why they traded with the Niners lol.

This is one of those obvious poles that's still fun to see. Of course everyone was surprised Frosty was there to be had which makes him a HUGE fan fave

Let's hope the two trades in the first will be talked about 20 years down the road about how stupid the other team was for trading with us and letting us have Thomas and Foster...hell may as well add the Williams and Beathard trades too :)

I can see it now...

2037...
"49ers were able to somehow hit on HOF players with each trade they pulled off in that magical draft which sent them back to the premier dynasty in the NFL"

There could be several gems here.

Getting Reuben Foster at #31 overall is is off the charts incredible. He is a top 5 player in this draft. Maybe even top 3.

There was a time when I was wondering if we would get Solomon Thomas or Reuben Foster. To get both in the same draft in the first round is amazing. We had a great first round and overall draft.

But nothing tops Foster based on the pick where we got him. Along with the value of the player he is if he stays healthy and clean.

I think Joe is the steal of the draft. Did I mention his name is JOE???

Beathard because Trump said he's the next Tom Brady

Thomas probably has way the most impact of course.

Thank you , English...you just took the words right out of my. Mouth. Solomon, Foster and Joe, tho, have compelling stories. With Beathard , tho, it is all about heritage...lineage.
Grandfather, father, and now CJ. Great story, but for compelling stories, the first 3 have the edge.

Sorry ,Thl, I didn't vote, because Solomon, Foster, and Joe, all get the nod.

Be a man. Make a choice.

Krapt, ok, Joe.

Dang you, Thl, I wanted to vote for all 3...which reminds me, I don't recall this kind of story in the past, let alone 3 of them....oops...forgot our Aussie rugby brother. That was a good story, but I like all 3 of these way better.
