If Solomon Thomas is there you take him no question. I think he and Bosa would be a phenomenal combo on defense. Watched film on Thomas and was super impressed.

Originally posted by Bolt-O View PostFree Safety was the weakest position on the D last season. On offense, it was the tackles. However, I don't like drafting just because of need. I think they should just go BPA, and if it's a safety, so be it. I'd prefer Edge, if Ingram doesn't stay. At #7 none of the tackles are worth it. I actually think the move north will help in re-signing Ingram, I don't think he thought the lights were bright enough in San Diego.
S and adding impact players at DT. The S position is deep in this draft and I don't think we need to add a S in the 1st just because it is a just because of need. There are good players later, and the number of S drafted high who are busts is a little troubling.
I think we are in the position we were last year. We just need good players. TT should just rank players and draft the guys at the top of the board. There are decent enough FA to fill in as stop gaps, but adding top players at whatever position is something we haven't had since Schotty was HC. Just add the best players around, with an eye towards a few positions.

Originally posted by Steve View PostI still think the weakest spot on O is LG. OT play wasn't great, but the problem was penetration inside much more than outside. Fluker played well, and Slausson was OK (playing out of position), but that is where we need an upgrade. OT isn't a bad idea, but Dunlap is the older more injury prone player, and Barksdale is the worst of the two. We can cut Dunlap, but Barksdale is not going anywhere because of his contract. And if we couldget a LT, then Dunlap would make a decent RT.

How crazy would it be to trade for a second 2nd round pick this year by giving up picks in the 2018 draft? What would it take to trade for a second round pick in the range of the 40th to 50th pick? With Rivers only having a few years left, I really hope there is an extra effort to build up the team quickly to help him win a Bowl.
First round- DE/pass rush- Solomon Thomas
Second round- safety (Budda Baker? if he's there)
2nd Second round (via trade)- Adoree Jackson, to shore up CB position and use as returner
Third round- OL
Fourth round- QB to develop (Davis Webb?)

I don't like using a mid to late pic on a QB this year either. Next year we find the eventual successor. Everybody wants to find the Next Dak. Well Dak fell for other reasons besides his play and that don't happen very often with QBs.
I'm not interested in Chad Kelly either for the record. Don't care who his Dad is. He isn't that good
