Thinking Outside the Mox

As we all know. There are a handful of players who could possibly be traded up for. None of those players will require a King's ransom in compensation. Such is life!

Draft trade- #2 to CAR for #8 (they get Fournette) for 1-8, 3-8 (72nd overall) & 2nd in 2018
draft trade- trade #8 to DET (they get Rueben Foster) for 1-21, 2-21 (53rd overall) and a 3rd in 2018

Yes i know we didn't break the bank like previous #2 picks but it is what it is. still pick up 2 2nds and 2 3rds.

#21 Zach Cunningham LB Vandy (Will)
#34 Takarrist McKinley DE/LB UCLA (LEO)
#53 Tyus Bowser LB HOU (SAM)
#66 Nathan Peterman QB Pitt
#72 Eddie Jackson FS ALA
#109 Marlon Mack RB USF
#143 Josh Reynolds WR TAMU
#146 Keionta Davis DE CHAT (Leo)
#161: Darrell Daniels TE Wash
#198: Javancy Jones LB Jackson st. (Mike)
#202: KD Cannon WR Baylor
#219: Tedric Thompson Fs Colorado

This leaves us still in need of MIKE(no im not sold on Bowman being right ever again)
Still a NT away on Dline unfortunately
Want to see what we have at CB in this scheme before addressing.

Offense Lacking True #1 but enough playmakers on team to get by
Still need a true backup to Hyde..
OL want to see how these guys perform in this scheme before addressing

We'd still have holes but a very nice foundation all the way around.
We just gave smith money to play the will so I see no point in going after Cunningham.

If we are moving down and don't land at the least a 2nd this yr no Fing way. Horrible trade compensation
Not bad

Sub Cunningham for a corner or WR, and I'd be down.
Carolina has 2 picks in round 2 it would take both of them and their 3rd! Plus in a draft where starting CBs should be 3 rounds deep we pass when we need 2 if Ward moves to safety! I don't think we need that many LBs!

Again, i now what the trade value chart says. but reality says otherwise.

If we draft a FS then we wouldnt need to move Ward. Which was my plan. Also we just took Redmond ion the 3rd last year and we don't know what he's about because of his injury. He was touted as a 1st rounder last year if it wasnt for his injury.

We literally have no starting LB's on our team. Bowman and Smith yadda yadda yadda. While they may be good to ahve in the class room. That seems to be the extent of where they'll actually help. Which means we have no LB's so swinging on as many as we can will only help. Plus i only took 3. 1 for each position.
Need more offense. I like the first 2 picks though.
Mock draft

49ers trade 2nd pick to Browns for 12th pick and Browns 2nd round pick

49ers Round 1 Pick 12: OT Cam Robinson (49ers finally make up for losing M Iupati)
49ers Round 2 Pick 1: C Tyler Orlosky (with him Jeremy Zuttah and D Gilgore 49ers have flexibility on the line, Orlosky is said to be the center version of a Panthers DE Charles Johnson)
49ers Round 2 Pick 2: QB Seth Russell (49ers finally their FQB, this guy was the guy that made those dominant Baylor offense go, we get our Kurt Warner QB who should lead us to the Super Bowl. Has great touch on mobile throws, best footwork on 5 step drops in draft)
49ers Round 3 Pick 66: DE Garrett Sickels We get our edge rusher. John Clayton says this guy is the 'Jimmy Graham of edge rushers'. Bats ball down in a way that Chris Doleman tackled.
49ers Round 4 Pick 109: FB Chad Newell 49ers pick Newell due to the Jets and Cardinals trying to trade up for him. Newell is like a super great version of Tommy Vardell. Kyle can go with a 2 FB 3 WR look, confuse the defense. Newell and Kyle J as fullbacks would cause our O to soar

post draft:

49ers move Zuttah to Guard and keep Orlosky at Center, Kilgore moved to Tackle , 49ers trade Joe Staley to the Browns for a 2020 4th round pick and a 2021 5th round pick. OL: Kilgore (T), Zane Beatles (T), Ty Orlosky (C), Zuttah (G), Stanford 2016 draft guy (G), 49ers trade Mike Davis and their 2019 4th round pick to the Chargers for the Chargers 2018 3rd round pick 49ers move Chad Newell to hybrid HB-FB role
49ers sign Austin Collie and Josh Gordon to compete for a roster spot.

Cunningham will be injured more than average because he doesn't have a junkyard-dog body for the position. Hes gonna get roughed up more than hes used to in his conference.
Sorry man. I know we need LBs but I am not too pumped about this draft.
