Those first two picks are what I am currently expecting.
ReplyDeleteHe beats man and press coverage, reliable against zone and plays big with the ball in space. I guess you really can’t ask for much more out of a Round 1 receiver prospect.
DeleteYep. The drops concern me, and not convinced of his ability to catch in traffic, but he gets open and can be a weapon in multiple ways.
DeleteI've cooled a little on Concepcion, but wouldn't be mad if the 49ers draft him. I believe that he makes a faster contribution than what Watkins and Cowings has so far. Kirk will be the 3rd WR, but KC will receive plenty of snaps in his rookie season. Pending...
DeleteHeight is my #1 draft crush. I think he would be a perfect fit for Morris's scheme. I think they might have to move up in the 2nd round to get him. I wouldn't mind seeing them package their 2nd with 2 4ths to move up at least 10 spots. The problem with that is that would leave the 49ers with only 4 picks in the draft and they need to fill more than 4 spots. Maybe they could package this years 2nd with next years 3rd. A IOL/S or WR in the first (BPA) along with Height in the 2nd and I would be a happy man.
ReplyDeleteIn my humble opinion, you don't want to trade any 2027 assets away as it will be a better draft. You want to acquire at least one day 3 pick next year from one of those 4th rounders.
DeleteI agree with you about the 27 draft. I just think Height could get 7 to 12 sacks his rookie year with how Morris could use him. I see him becoming a top 10, top 15 pass rusher. I would hate to miss him by 1,2 or 3 picks
DeleteSimple fix is to trade up for Height and then recoup capital by trading down with another 4th rounder.

OL Robert Jones is signing with the 49ers per Pelissero. That means he cleared his medicals. There's your LG in house favorite, OldCoach. May the best man win!
ReplyDeleteWide body reminds me of Laken Tomlinson
DeleteI don't think this will preclude them drafting an OL day 3. Missed last year, and wasn't that good with the Dolphins.
DeleteI think this is a replacement for Bartch to compete with Toth, Colby, Zakelj and likely a draft pick for the LG spot.
Absolutely Scooter, but he'll still be the favorite. Doesn't mean he can't lose out to a dark horse candidate.
DeleteWhat would be cool is if Nick Zakelj could draw inspiration from McKivitz to come back after being cut to win that LG job.
DeleteCool, yes. Likely? No.
Delete😂I bet you said the same thing about McKivitz!
DeleteThats the competition I asked for. I was hoping for a player with a little higher PFF ranking but he was a starting OG in the league. His signing pretty much guarantees that they wont go O line in rounds one and two. Now all they have to do is extend Williams and sign J. Bosa for them to have the best off season in the past 10 years
DeleteRazor, McKivitz came back and showed some nice reps in year 3, which earned him first shot at the starting role in year 4. Zakelj is already heading into year 5 and is buried well down the pecking order.
DeleteSo, will be cool if it happens, but the above is why I say it is unlikely.
I'm just messing with you dude. You gotta admit though, McKivitz was a surprise.

Mike Florio on the 49ers and Trent Williams:
ReplyDelete“They don’t want to pay the guy $32M in cash to a guy who is gonna turn 38 in July. The problem with no guarantees in the contract, the 49ers can just squat and wait. As time goes by other teams will have blown their budgets and Trent Williams is more likely to take the 49ers best offer because there may not be a better offer out there because all those teams have spent their money. That’s the game the 49ers are playing and if I were Trent Williams, I’d be pissed about it.”
I think Florio’s comment was ridiculous. Trent’s a big boy and he uses his advantages when negotiating and I’m sure he understands the Niners using theirs. Also, who’s to say that’s the Niners strategy? I think they each will try to get as close as possible to their number and most likely there will be an agreement.
DeleteNot a fan of Florio. I haven't forgotten his foolishness when he reported that a top football executive told him that the 49ers were going to draft Fields as their QB.
DeleteAdd Denzel Boston to KC Concepcion and Omar Cooper Jr. The top-30 receiver visits are piling up.
ReplyDeleteAnd all guys expected to go round 1/ early round 2.
DeleteSounds right.
DeleteAny of those three have starting talent and would contribute in their rookie season.
ReplyDeleteAwesome workout by Skyler Bell today at UConn Pro Day.
ReplyDeletePosted an ELITE three-cone at 6.65 (and he had times in 6.5s). Among the best in the WR class. 👀👀
He's among one of the safest Day 2 WR's in the class to me.
Yeah, I hadn't watched him until recently. He's good. Production inflated by usage, but he's good running real routes downfield as well. Super quick out of breaks.
DeleteThe 49ers met with SMU RB T.J. Harden at his Pro Day per Pauline.
