But one could argue CB is just as big of a need if not more, IMHO.

I would agree but there are fewer CB's worth a 1st round pick. Unless Okudah or Henderson drop. Then you could end up choosing between a WR, tackle and CB.

That would actually be pretty ideal.

I agree OL and CB are our 2 biggest needs. it comes down to what is harder to find? For me it's generally OL.

Staley
Tomlinson
Richburg
Garland
Brunskill
McGlinchey

Sherman
Mosley
K'Waun Williams
Ward
Tartt

Vs.

Deebo
Goodwin
Bourne
Pettis
James
Hurd IR
Taylor twice on IR

Yet OL and CB are the two biggest needs. Those two groups hardly changed from the Super Bowl only Mike Person has left.

Unbelievable!!!


Outside of Deebo, that WR group is completely underwhelming. Either injury concerns or simply very average (Bourne), or stinks (Pettis).

It is until you factor in Kittle is our #1, Deebo #2. Then Kyle tends to distribute along X (a need), SWR (variety) and RB's.

And if Kittle gets hurt? Dude is running around with one foot and a torn labrum. Throw in a calf, groin, knee injuries as well... you want him to play more than another 2 yrs lol?

You can't expect someone like Kittle who's just as important in the run game to be getting 150 targets on top of it.

Kittles more important to our run game than our passing game tbh

I was just refering the WRs, but having Kittle doesn't preclude them from adding another legit receiving threat. I'm not sure they are ready to bank 100% on Hurd being the impact player they envisioned. No one else in that WR group scares any DC. I think WR at 13 gives them the legit chance to solidify the offense. I mean the cards brought in Hopkins even though the used drafted 3 WR in last 2 drafts. I just think Deebo/Ruggs/Kittle, sprinkle in Mostert and hopefully Hurd is a freaking nightmare to defend.

Meh... I was with Pheonix that QW was good option last year. I just thought we needed an edge to be more well rounded and it showed.

I'm also fine with Thomas this year. I just assumed he wouldn't be there early on. I think he's better than Wirfs and Wills (I haven't watched much of the other tackle prospects) at this point.

Just like with QW the talent is there. We may not go offensive line this year but he's worth of 13 overall.
