Post FA guide to the superbowl

I'm hoping for a small trade back, but this mock is 0 trades, oh except for trading Laken Tomlinson and 2019 7th for a 2018 6th.

2018:

Target(Backup Choice)

RD1: Derwin James, S I've been against drafting James because I was hoping the niners would resign Eric Reid, and keep the draft wide open. However, with Reid looking less and less likely, BPA now coincides with a position of need. A mixture of Tart and James can help with LBer responsibilities in the absence of Foster, and there will be plenty of opportunity to get snaps for all 4 of our top safeties. Nickel safety is practically a base position these days.

RD2: Isaiah Oliver, CB (Carlton Davis) I believe Sherman is very much meant to be a short term transitional player, albeit an elite one. With a year or two of development, Oliver has the potential to allow us to move on without skipping a beat. The size and length we covet with the athleticism and movement skills of a future #1.

RD3: James Daniels, OG/C(Austin Corbett/Braden Smith) Getting our center of the future was a good start, but letting Kilgore and Fusco leave really limits our ability to surround Richburg with talent utilizing only the guys on our roster. Here, we are looking for a scheme fit at guard to start on the left side from day 1.

RD3: Kemoko Turay, EDGE(Jeff Holland/Josh Sweat/Ogbonnia Okoronkwo) Getting Attachou was a start, but far from a guarenteed thing. We need edge rush help bad. I think we can get by until next year, which appears to be a much better class, but one of these guys is bound to fall and be available here in the 3rd.

RD4: Genard Avery, LB(Christian Sam) With the Foster trouble, we definitely need a capable player to step in as an insurance policy. If Foster cones back and stays out of trouble, now were cooking with gas.

RD5: Alex Cappa, OT/OG Staley, regrettably is getting old. I think we have a chance to win a ring with him, but we do need to start thinking about his replacement. Alex Cappa can compete with Joshua Garnett for the RG job. When Staley retires, Cappa moves to RT with Brown sliding over to the left side.

RD6: Daurice Fountain, WR Will compete with Kendrick Bourne to be Garcon's eventual replacement. Can hopefully be for us what we were hoping Allen Robinson would be.

RD6: Michael Joseph, CB Great size and length. Absolutely dominated his lower level of competition, excelling in many of the techniques that are asked of our corners. His size lends well to being an outside boundary corner, but has experience in the slot, offering nice depth and versatility. An excellent candidate to learn behind Sherman.

RD7: Dylan Cantrell, WR A tall and strong possession receiver with off the charts freaky athletic traits. Jake Weineke who? RZ threat from day one, with a good chance to develop into something special. Not a burner, but also not deathly slow; Cantrell tested absolutely off the charts in explosion and agility drills. Very sure hands, with a huge catch radius.

RD7: Peter Kalambayi, SAM Good but not great at: rushing the passer, setting the edge, stacking and shedding, dropping into coverage. Stanford guy, so smart and connections to Lynch.

2019

RD1: Nick Bosa, DE(Joe Jackson) I don't care what it takes. We NEED to exit the draft with one of these guys. If we get a top edge rusher in the 2019 draft, we have a very legitimate shot at the Superbowl.

RD2: Derrick Brown, DT1T Absolute stud at shaded nose. Our defense is now a top end unit.

RD3: Caleb Wilson, TE An excellent piece in the passing game and a very capable blocker.

RD4: Montez Sweat Strong side end depth who can get after the passer and stop the rub.

James Daniels is strictly a C. He would be overpowered at the G position. But i wouldnt expect him to be there in the 3rd. Braden Smith or Corbett would be a good and realistic pick there though.

Honestly, i dont know why so many people have us taking James. Tartt is a beast.

I think Daniels can play guard but I can agree that it is certainly a question mark and one that's likely a moot point since he'll be gone anyway. I agree tart is a beast and i don't expect James to take his snaps. I think there are plenty of ways to get 3 safeties on the field at once, especially with our linebacker troubles
First two picks on the defensive backfield . First pick on a safety . Deep and quality draft for running backs and we dont even try a late pick

Rather than putting a 3rd safety on the field to compensate for our linebacker troubles, why not use that first pick to assist with those troubles?

By the way you are making a huge gamble on Garnett.

We have 0 outside corners for the long term outside of Ahkello. I don't see the problem in spending an early pick on a potential #1. As for why not just draft a LB, I'm hopeful Foster comes back. I'd rather not over react. We are fine at LB if he comes back.

For Garnett, if he doesn't live up to his draft status, I'm A. Not concerned about having 1 weak link surrounded by studs on the OL, and I'm confident Cappa would at the least he serviceable at guard if absolutely necessary.


Skipping on RB was the hardest thing for me...But we have so many needs...I have to hope that Williams comes back ready to ball. McKinnon got paid a buttload of money, and I don't think we need to draft a #2 or #3 with Williams, Breida, Mostert, and McNichols all available

I have to agree here. We need a cb for the future but.... We need a rusher, a guard, and a playmaker on offense NOW.

I strongly disagree.

Outside of Landry, who else at EDGE is going to make sense at 9? I totally get people mocking Landry, I'm just not sold on him as a player. And if you're not sold on Landry, who else are we going to reach for?

For guard, Isaiah Wynn is in my top 4 or 5 for draft crushes...But do you take him at 9 over BPA and a guard, in a verrrrry deep IOL class, later in the draft? If Nelson is there at 9, it's a no brainer..But in the grand scheme of things, a guard, when surrounded by very good players at tackle and center, should not be a position that you reach on.

As for play maker, I think our RB and wr corps are fine, and I'd argue that shanny and Jimmy G agree. But regardless of that, just what "play maker" makes sense at 9?!

We need a CB now. Sherman has achilles issues on both ankles. After that it's Witherspoon and nothing. In a passing league we have one sure fire healthy outside CB. And it'll only be his 2nd season and his 8th start

No. He has one Achilles issue. Bone spur is a quick heal. I don't think Lynch takes Sherman if he wasn't going to be ready. PS if Stanford said it's a go.... It's a go. Pass rusher is the biggest need. Second I'd go guard, if you win in the trenches you win the game. Nelson is 120% worth the 9th pick if there. We can trade back a few spots and get Landry. Landry and Nelson would be bigger impacts day 1. Why because you give Jimmy more time, mckinnon, and receivers will be open. Also Landry would make our secondarys job teice as easy.

Ps I'm all for getting another cb through free agency for depth.

We literally have NO ONE at CB besides Ahkello and a Sherman coming off Injury and getting old. Of course if I was mocking a trade down my mock would look different, but I don't know who would trade to 9 with 4 QBs likely going top 5, and especially with the raiders at 10 who aren't going QB.
