If Lance or Fields falls we should still draft them.

What if Lance and Field will be gone by 49er or Falcons but I know 49er is definitely Getting Mac Jones or Field on their 3rd pick. 

So I would wait and see what happen in Draft Night. It wouldn't be surprised if 49er taken Field or Lance?

No, I'm not talking about immigration.

I would agree that this absolutely should be our next step.

You traded for a young quarterback. Now do whatever is necessary to protect him.

Yes let’s try to support a bust qb so delusional fans and coaches can convince themselves he isn’t a total loser. Great plan. Should draft all defense again

I guess I could be delusional like a good chunk of our fanbase and act like this organization has historically made good decisions that worked out well. Meanwhile, we're probably lining up our fourth consecutive losing season.

"The organization" isn't Marty Hurney and Ron Rivera anymore.

Fitterer and Rhule are just getting started. They have zero track record together at this point.

Fitterer said in his presser today that he wanted to use the draft to build on both sides of the line and at corner.

I'd say we're significantly better on the defensive line than on the offensive side right now, so I'm hoping the draft concentration is there.

I'm that boring old man who thinks that there's nothing better than a football game with a 10-12 score, so hell yeah build both lines! The game is won in the trenches.

I wish I was as confident as some of y'all that we actually have our QB to build around. I'm definitely not.

I’m being cautiously optimistic. Worse case scenario is Darnold is a less expensive placeholder than Bridgewater. We have know way of knowing right now. But we can build a really good OL for McCaffrey’s prime years and whoever the next franchise QB will be.

I believe this is the right thing to do regardless of whether Darnold works out or not.

Absolutely. 

Our front office must continue to build this team,  regardless whom the QB is. Those of us that are old, know finding the right QB is a not a short and easy process.

    • Honestly, I have only one pair of white shoes (only because they were new and like $4 from the Goodwill) other than my easily-cleaned Crocs. A man's got to think ahead.
    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
