I personally don't want a receiver. Recent history has proven that stud receivers don't win rings. Our passing is set up throw scheme and our ability to run the ball. I want offensive line or defense.

I'll take a WR or DT, either way.
Trade Down

In late rd 1-2 Take the best of Jefferson or Mims or Aiyuk (or Claypool)

Then take another WR later in rd 4-5 area
Consider Antonio Gibson / Bryan Edwards / Lynn Bowden / Isaiah Hodgins / Gabriel Davis /
Or in Rd 6 are Hightower / Joe Reed / etc

This draft is super deep in WR and we can get a #1 WR late rd 1 or rd 2 and another excellent WR in rd 4-5 area
WR going in rd 4 this year would normally be rd 2 level WR
Definitely trade down if possible and get more picks in rd 2-4
Trade back because someone will give up a haul to have their pick of the first WR off the board. I don't see this scenario happening though. At least one WR is going before 13. I think Lamb is a lock to go before our pick. Ruggs will probably go before as well. He's the hottest name in the draft with the most hype. I think Jeudy falls into the 15-20 range.

I'd pass on WR at 13. We need to be looking for one of the tackles to drop between Wirfs / Wills / Bechton / Thomas. Thomas is probably the only realistic option as the others will be gone. I'm not sure of how well he actually fits in Shanahan's scheme so I'd try to see if someone would be willing to give up a haul to get Jeudy.

If we are picking WR, I'm a Reagor guy.

I like Lamb the best, but Ruggs is also very good. He has big hands and he's a reliable pass catcher. Imagine all the plays Shanahan can dial up for him? It'll be exciting. I just hope we won't have to trade up for him. Maybe we can trade down a couple spots.
Someone other than a WR. I'd take an OL, CB, or DL first. The draft is deep at WR so why take one at 13 and not later?

Just because it's deep doesn't mean all the guys in the second are going to be great. We have to many guys who are 2nd or 3rd receivers at best. We need someone who can produce like a number 1 receiver.

To me it's about value and scarcity at a position of need. So if you have an OL rated at 93/100 available you take him over a WR who is a 90/100, especially if you can get a 85/100 WR later but the OL drop off is steep.
Trade back and load up. If one of the top OT is there then that is tempting
