2021 Draft Grades

[Topcat]

LIGHT BULB MOMENT

Thanks for the video bro. The "pop the cherry" was interesting... That aside...

What caught my attention was the reference to Juszczyk. How does Juszczyk keep getting paid silly multi-millions as a "fullback" when FB is supposedly a dying position?

-Blocking in space
-Overall athleticism and versatility
-Reliable hands

Staley as the Rams DC was forced to study the 49ers and he quickly learned just how much Juszczyk meant for the 49ers. He said "Holy Crap" His exact words, good Catholic.

***DragonIce gets it now***.

Staley knows what an elite blocker in space can offer a team...esp. when combined with other threats. Staley said, "Gimmie some of that!" Staley believes Tre can block in the open field...for draws, screens, reverses, erasing second level threats...yet is a player who also can catch and release.

McKitty is our Juszczyk in the Park.

Be damned sure of this: Day 1 assignment when Staley sits down with McKitty: "Kid, Watch Juszczyk play football."

Good analysis there, Dragon...

FYI Here are the top 25 steals of the draft. ( The value is the draft trade value difference of where the player was expected to go vs where he fell). ie Penei Sewell was the #2 player on CBS's big board and DET nabbed him at 7.

All those high grades sure do fly in the face of the detailed hate of each pick by a few during the draft day threads...

Which is why none of us have "GM" next to our name.

Popper earned some points with me with this recap
this is basically how I feel about the draft overall
B+

Only the #Browns, #Chargers and #Patriots an A+ grade from PFF.

Jax, Minnesota, & Detroit were also superb.

I don't know why, but I have a feeling that Staley and his staff will do a better job developing some of our young players than the McCoy and Lynn staff's did.

Can you really do worse? Less leading men more coaching them that is all.

This will be McKitty's job:

Okay, this is a complete joke. They gave 2 of the picks their apparently lowest rating of "poor" and 2 more picks were called "below average", apparently their next lowest rating. How that can combine with anything to make an A+ is a complete mystery. Their analysis here is internally inconsistent.

Which 2 did they list as poor? Which two as below average?

The Y receiver is lined up on the LOS next to the OT.
The F receiver is lined in the offset Full Back position.

I think that is right.

I thought his plays as h-back looked intriguing. I also noticed he kept doing one-handed catches as well in the senior bowl practices which seemed very unnecessary to me. Dude secure that ball. I guess he's just trying to catch scouts' attention.

I really like his blocking potential and very active feet. I know he had a 7th round grade but his senior bowl stuff probably brought him to 5th round grade on many boards.

The first two picks were fallers at our greatest positions of need. Unbelievably lucky and plus value for each. The rest of the draft picks were average value. Palmer, McKitty, Rumph and Jaimes are potential starters in the future. Jaimes may be a steal.

This could look really good in a few years.
