Rumor: 49ers looking to trade up to 13 or 14...

Point blank, if Star or Lane falls to 14th, the last team I want to get stronger is the defending NFC champ. Why don't we do follow what the 49ers have done for years and stay put and draft on a BPA philosophy?

They don't necessarily stay put, though. They were the beneficiaries of the Everette Brown disaster. They got Iupati out of that one.

I would swap 14 for 31 and 34 without thinking twice. This draft isn't top heavy. We get 3 guaranteed starters if we make that trade.

totally agreed.

in fact i just saw a mock from some bills beat reporter in which we made that trade.

we came out with terron armstead (OT), coradelle patterson, and jesse williams with our first three picks....just to give an idea of what kind of thing is possible at that point.

i don't know about you guys, but that ain't exactly three dimes right there.

improve the OL, improve the WR corps, and improve the DL, esp. against the run?....yeah, i'll take that.

oh...link to that mock: http://www.wgr550.com/NFL-Mock-Draft--6/16111938

and why would the 49ers do that? because they don't have the money for 2 first rounders...that's why. they don't have the cap space or really the roster space for all the picks they have coming their way.

Give me a Safety/Corner in the fourth and wake me up from this dream....

Shamarko Thomas/Sean Williams/Josh Evans

Jordan Poyer/Sanders Commings/Brandon McGee

Might even be able to go Safety in fourth and McGee in fifth....

That would be straight up robbery.

I said this yesterday. We could fill three big holes rather than two. I know this is a stretch but think about when you come up to a parking meter...what good is a dollar when all you need is three dimes?

The problem with this analogy is unless the unthinkable happens and Star or Lane Johnson fall (it isn't happening) the prospects at 14 aren't dollars....

i'd consider it a win/win....much in the same way it was for the bucs/jets.

the thing that gets me most giddy about that possible scenario isn't the exact players mentioned...it's gettleman making the call who those players are going to be.

we could come out of this draft with 3 legit starters from the first couple rounds. i'll take 3 legit starters over revis any day. esp. with that cap hit. we'd get all three players for what revis would be getting in one year...and i'm talking about their entire rookie contracts.

Yeah. But they may have someone highly rated on their board that we don't know about. It happens every year, some teams just like certain guys that no one else seems to. I have no clue who we feel that way about. It will be interesting to find out in a few days. My point is that Gettlemen may think they can get a dollar at 14. I'd still rather have three dimes this year.

      We had Sam Darnold

      By MHS831 · Posted

      And timing is everything.  You don't build the roof of a house before you build the foundation.  Teams that draft #1 overall tend to go for QBs and put them in impossible situations.  Our coach sucked.  Our OL sucked (even when Cam was here, but he could overshadow that deficiency), etc.  They seem to have the idea down (Morgan?) but when Bryce gets paid, you can't have $100m going to the OL and $50m to the QB and still have WRs and a Defense.   We have to develop our talent and be prepared to let them walk and retool.  I am still a bit upset by the Horn CB deal.  Look at the salary we have locked up at OG and CB....Yikes. If it were not for MJackson and Coker, we would have been in deep poopie.   I am still fairly optimistic, and I have accepted the fact that Bryce will be our CB for at least another season.  He is improving, but I do not like the fact that he needs so much investment in the OL and WRs to be average--before his mega deal.  I am hoping we draft an QB with potential to develop on day 3 and see what we can do with him.  Long shot, but some of the top names in 2024 are going to be taken late this draft.  Like Purdy (I wanted him around round 5 or 6), or Ewers from last season.  I like several QBs who may not even be drafted, like the kid from Vanderbilt.  I also like Mateer from Oklahoma.  Raw, but a year on the bench could help.

      Top 5 draft targets for positions of need

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      We've still fuged up in the past going "BPA". We drafted Butler at DT and Shaq at LB when DT and LB were some of our biggest strengths of the roster. Butler was a flat out bust and Shaq was basically a JAG starter at LB. I know that triggers some folks, but sorry that's just the truth. We overdrafted him then doubled down on that and overpaid him.

      We had two shots at #1. Hell, we had them on the roster at the same time. Darnold and Mayfield both.
