Look on the bright side: we'll only see him once every four years.

49ers chickened out. They passed on the best player in the draft for the sure thing. Nobody can criticize them for picking Bosa, and Bosa will be good right out of the gate. QW was a riskier pick but a better pick with higher upside. But Lynch couldn't take the risk or he would have been fired if it didn't work out.

Nah, the reasoning is sound, they had them graded similarly so then went for need. I've got no issues with that, at least they would have taken him if Bosa was gone.

Jets made a hell of a pick, they need edge worse than we do, but picked the best player available, kudos.

It's also about team building. It's been said to death, but if you take QW you still have to take an edge player later in the draft. If you take Bosa, you don't have to take another DT. I agree that QW is the best player in the draft, but overall, Bosa isn't far behind. I think the return is well worth it.
What's his role going to be in NY? I heard Williams is sticking with the 3-4. Hope it's not a 2 gap nt.

I think he was trying to play it safe and assuming Q had the better chance of being there....no sense getting your hopes up, ya know

Both guys should be pretty damn good at the next level. Bosa just fit the roster and was BPA at position of need.

They are saying the opposite. Can do either and be hybrid, but are better built for a 4-3.

I had a good feeling it was gonna play out this way

Now move AA to the Pats... go get a WR at 36 and grab some help at DB/OL/LB

Wasn't sure if AZ was going to take Murray - I know you had to reel me in a couple of times. Just glad it worked out for us.

lol I got you

There was so many dots to connect with Murray to AZ, it made too much sense and they went about it horribly. Fine with me!
Happy withtbis outcome. He can clobber Brady twice a year, and isnt in our division. He might be betterthan Bosa, but wasnt atthe position we need. Bosa is a better fit for our roster. I always worry about stud college DT pass rushers anyway. They dont seem to pan out and so few hit over 10 sacks consistently.
