Tre White, Dion Dawkins, Zay Jones, Matt Milano all starting this year. That's excellent. Even Peterman got a start with a healthy TT. That's more than what Mahomes could say.

Have nice depth LB in Vallejo. Maybe he starts in a year or two. For a 6th, that's all you can ask for.

What a great draft. Only question is, maybe we didn't have to trade a bunch of picks to move up a couple times. But, you like to see they didn't pull a Watkins or a Ragland.

The new regime (mcdermott ) is conservative.
Punting on forth and 1.

I do not see us trading picks to move up.
If a qb falls to 17 or 23 our pick and kc , they might pick him.

I'm %100 confident in the new regime and drafting after this past draft.
Back in the superbowl years, we were picking in the late 20's and hitting. Sometimes the early picks are high risk/reward

where, a few catches in garbage time?


deep ball hit him in the hands yesterday and he dropped it


the only time he looked like a decent wr all year long was the first half vs the chiefs

- homiedclown


Zay hasn't proved a lot, I think my "Fandom" kicked in a bit:

I like him alot. Setting an all time record for ncaa catches, bodes well. But he really hasn't stepped up.

Yet

He's been targeted 70 times, that's not bad in fact that's more than the Rams have thrown to Watkins this year so far
- Stripes77

That's also not top WR #'s either. 20 of them came in two games.

Sammy is in an elite offense that spreads the ball around, and has 7 TD's

garbage time, jets in prevent at the time


try harder

- homiedclown


False

That wasn't garbage time

2mins left in the first half is when he was hurt (he has the CB beat and would have had an easy TD as well)

He already had 40 yards and a TD

Jones caught 1 ball for 4 yards in the 4th quarter with 11 mins left in the game

He caught a ball in the 3rd for 9 yards with 9:50 left in the 3rd quarter

Sometimes he is very fortunate that he knocks them down before they get to him or they would pound them right in the chest.

so if he finished the game and if he repeated that performance

he may have had 80 or 90 yards in one game


I take back everything I said, he is the next flipper anderson

benjamin is signed for next year already
- homiedclown


Yep, but extending him, would affect our draft stategy. Especially at wr , takes a few years to grow into.

Has jimmi g completely played the 49ers into signing him long term? Probably
Wouldn't mind seeing him or cousins.

Save the qb pick for line help on both sides

Cousins would want more than a 1-2 year deal. Are you prepared to offer him 4-5 years?

Looking at Eks thread I look at MTL.

Price is going to be the worst contract in the NHL in two years.
2nd will be 34 YO Shea Weber at 7.8MM with 5 years left.

Man that's bad.

Sure Draft an o-lineman. Ask Miami how drafting the Best o-lineman in the draft helped them when they could have Drafted Matt Ryan instead.

You always take the QB, always.

Ok, but Matthews has been hurt, so has Benjamin.

5 targets a game is #2 WR numbers, and Jones has been our "#1" in multiple games this year.

Tyrod just doesn't throw to recievers consistently.

He didn't play much in the 2nd half his snap total was down a lot because his knee was banged up on that trip.

He was playing well up to that point.

His big knock coming out was his unpolished route running.

That takes time to develop.

With a healthy Benjamin next year I expect Jones to be just fine.

I didn't say he was going to be a Pro Bowler or anything but a good slot receiver.

They still need a guy who can stretch the field though.
