Draft position updates

Missing out on Young is not ideal. But if we decide not to go QB there’s plenty of players at positions of need that have potential. We could add to the O-Line with Skoronski, boast our Dline with Bresee, or add a playmaker in Johnston/Addison, or a TE in Mayer.

 

This wouldn’t be my strategy but Addison is the one guy in this draft, if we’re there, and Young and Stroud are taken, I’d just take JA. He is of the Diggs meets G Wilson mold. His game is just so translatable, he does everything. Monster. The one guy I’m absolutely sure on. He’s done it in 2 different college offenses and proved to be the best in the country at it. Get him to pair with Moore and figure QB out in a trade up or what have you.

He’d be that level of a bump up offensively in my view no matter the QB. and then maybe try to trade up to the back of the first for Richardson or McKee. I dunno 🤷🏼‍♂️

Dude, if your nuts look like this.... You need to see a doctor. 

Awww did I hurt the little boy's feelings?

You cry babies over draft position are just that.   Cry babies.  

Then again, you're probably the same ones that have never played a single minute of sports.

Don’t throw stones mate your the softest bloke on here when someone has a different opinion

If that’s what you believe I’m a bit worried about you. Are you ok mate? 

Absolutely,  I have talked with you several times especially about Tanking and Corral.  You cannot nor will not accept that you might be wrong.   Apparently, you know more about American football than anyone else on this board. 

I don't think I have seen one positive post on any subject you comment on.  All negative, all trolling.

You should look in the mirror because everything you accuse me of, you're the leader in the clubhouse.

It’s an opinion board I share my opinion each to their own. I have plenty of positive things to say. My takes are based on common sense like. 
 

A 3rd round rookie QB who lost their entire rookie season to injury would have to be a massive outlier to become a franchise guy.

We should have trade Burns for the Rams 2nd and 2 firsts because they’re a crumbling side. Also using the money he was gonna command on Free Agents 

I want us to have the highest pick available so if our front office identifies a franchise QB in this draft we don’t have to mortgage our future gambling on him. 
 

That’s about all the hot topics for the last couple of weeks I can think of

I wouldn't fret too much, if you look at the remaining schedule, our spot in the top 8 should be a safe bet. 

I could see us as high as third.

I think the most prudent path to becoming a playoff team soon is to sign Jimmy G and add a solid TE.  Any QB we draft is going to by a wildcard and likely take years to develop.  We have a young and solid OL and run game in place with a stout defense.  All you need with that is a solid NFL WB who can game manage, similar to the Delhomme years.

Jimmy G has the same record as a starting QB in SF as Steve Young had thru 59 starts….he’s good enough

Please….no more retreads. Agree on the strong D and running game.

    • Sometimes you get very valuable information from fantasy football sites. I found an analysis that you may want to read from The Fantasy Footballers. Perhaps you'll gain an insight as to why we moved up and got him. As always, here are a few snippets: "As expected, he dominated in the 2023 season. He averaged an impressive 2.03 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play, which ranks in the 86th percentile among all junior seasons since 2013." "Naturally, after initially playing behind two NFL-caliber running backs, Brooks’ career numbers do not jump off the page. However, his 2023 campaign gave us a glimpse of just how massive his upside could be at the next level. In fact, Brooks is one of only TWO running backs in this class to exceed 2.00 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play within their first three seasons in college."  "If you watch Jonathon Brooks’ film, you will find multiple plays in which he created yardage with his quick feet and lateral agility. He is elusive in open spaces and has an impressive ability to stack multiple cuts to avoid contact. Combined with his impressive burst and acceleration, Brooks can be a matchup nightmare in the second and third levels of the defense." "While Brooks is not the most physical running back, he does have a knack for absorbing contact and bouncing off defenders. You see this time and time again in his film." "He showcased a willingness to initiate contact with the pass rusher, the strength to maintain blocks, and the quickness to adjust to the defender’s moves. In addition, per PFF, Brooks was a top-three running back in the 2024 class in pass-blocking grade last season. He was also one of only two running backs in the class to average a 0% pass block pressure rate, highlighting just how effective he was as a blocker." "In short, Brooks has tremendous upside as a prospect. Even with his ACL injury, I would still be comfortable drafting him in the early second round of rookie drafts. In fact, I would not be shocked if he finished his career as the most productive running back in this class. However, we just need to temper our expectations for his rookie year as he slowly ramps up to full health." Marvin Elequin provides more here (including video clips): https://www.thefantasyfootballers.com/dynasty/2024-rookie-profile-rb-jonathon-brooks-fantasy-football/   Basically, Brooks has the potential to be a beast, and was well worth the 46th pick (and most mocks had him going mid second round anyway). He's not JAG. Someone had to make the move and take him, and we were the ones to do it. He's elusive, has good speed and acceleration, exceptional contact balance, and is an outstanding blocker. Just like any nice RB transitioning to the league, he will need to get used to taking what the defense gives him, while also showing discriminating patience, but he has demonstrated some ability on that front in college. Brooks' only real knock is the ACL. But ACLs aren't career ending anymore, or even skill ending as evidenced by Dalvin Cook, Todd Gurley and others. We'll just need to temper our expectations during his rookie campaign while he gets back to form. Once he does, we'll finally have the talented three-down back that has eluded us since Stew retired.

    • 2.43 : Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon 2.52 : Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas 3.65 : Junior Colson, LB, Michigan 3.79 : Blake Corum, RB, Michigan 4.101 : Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas 😎 5.141 : Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia 5.142 : Austin Booker, Edge, Kansas 5.155 : Christian Jones, OT, Texas Note, I traded down from 33 (took the Arizona/Atlanta trade up to 35 - might have actually been able to net an even better deal but whatever, I'll go with this). Took the Rams trade but stayed put at 52 and at the top of the 3rd.
