We know NFL teams can vary wildly from pre-draft groupthink. Today, you will probably see one of these names at 27. KC Concepcion Caleb Lomu Cashius Howell Omar Cooper Denzel Boston Give me your darkhorse 49ers picks nobody has in rd1. I'll start: Gabe Jacas

@BDPeacock a true shocker would be Jadarian Price. Those Shan comments about reducing CMC's workload...

@tonyrenghini Philosophy is one thing but execution is another. They've consistently failed in rounds 1 & 2 while doing well, often using a BPA approach, in later rounds. Problem is they have no young stars

The reason why the 49ers will never draft a 1st round safety, LB, RB, or IOL is because their market rates are significantly lower than other positions. Draft picks are coveted because they have cost-controlled contracts. You sign them to create an advantage against the (1/2)

Here's where I'm at today. Can the 49ers maneuver the draft board to close the gap between rounds 2 and 4? Especially if none of the top targets fall to 58 like R Mason Thomas or Gabe Jacas. Add a TE, RB, CB on day 3...

@tonyrenghini Bad process and Covid didn't help with limited ability to workout prospects. But I've never understood what Shan saw in limited Lance reps that made him think he was a system fit

Trading up for a QB in the draft was never the problem. The problem was they moved up for a SPOT and not a particular player in mind. I still believe at the time Mac Jones could’ve been the player they had in mind. He was never going #3 overall. And they changed their mind after.
Coach Yac 🗣@Coach_Yac

Five years ago today, the 49ers made the worst trade in franchise history… …Brock Purdy definitely saved some people’s jobs since then

Is trading Mac Jones and pick 27 for pick 21 and 85 a good deal? You gain a third-round pick and move up in the first round. Essentially, it's swapping Mac Jones for two third-round selections. #NFLDraft #MacJones

@Graham_SFN Brad, I trust your OL evaluations more than most. But how long can Lynch & Shan get away with journeymen/day 2-3-UDFA at the increasingly valuable positions of OG and C?

First impression of Robert Jones gives of Laken Tomlinson vibes Moves well for 6’4” 320 lbs and is still only 27 years old. Looks to finish blocks in the run game which is a plus, appears to be a seasoned vet in pass-pro, who if healthy could probably start next year for the 49ers I think this move allows the 49ers to be patient when looking at IOL in the draft which they should target in 2nd-3rd round Opens a huge competition at LG between Jones, Toth, Colby, Zakelj, and potential rookie

@Tonysmarkettips I've always thought the wasted call was running LaMichael James on 1D from the 8. Might as well have taken a f-ing knee

Everyone talks about the goal line stand at the end of this Super Bowl, and not running the ball, and whether Crabtree was held...and the blackout that proceeded it. But NOBODY talks about the plays that brought the 49ers from their own 20 yard line to within 5 yards of glory vs. an elite defense: -Frank Gore right, right guard, 8 yard run -Kap right end, 8 yard run -Incomplete pass to Vernon Davis (Off his fingers!) -Pass to Crabtree 24 yards -Gore left end for 33 yards to the 7 yard line -LaMichael James 2 yard run The 49ers were absolutely cruising ... It really felt like they couldn't be stopped and them winning was destiny.

@Tonysmarkettips C+. Historic values in Purdy, Kittle and Warner save the grade from much worse. Several bad picks made worse by who they passed on. And consistently undervalue OL

@BDPeacock Lemon slipping to 27 seems a lot lower than middle of that list. Were his Combine meetings that bad?

It would make sense if they had some better players at some key positions. The only time team this team makes a deep playoff run is when they swing for the fences in free agency or when they made mid season acquisitions. Best non-SF example are the Rams: I don’t think the Rams care that they spent heavily on 2 corners they won’t find in the draft.
Javier Vega@JavierVeg_

The league year starts at 4pm est. The Niners been telling us the plan. They need to cut cash flow, and get younger. I do t expect anything major in FA. FA is usually a dud around the entire league overpaying for players that are gone in a year or 2.. isn’t a winning formula

@AlSacco49 The reality of the NFC West is SF's 2 biggest rivals have significantly outdrafted them. Even the "hits" in this class are merely above average starters

We’ll see what happens, but seems like #49ers are at least exploring moving on from Renardo Green just two seasons after spending a 2nd rd pick on him. The 2024 draft initially looked so promising & is kinda taken a nose dive heading into year 3

The San Francisco #49ers are among the teams expected to show interest in CB Montaric Brown if the Jaguars are unable to re-sign him in free agency, per @jfowlerespn
