While I'm still really iffy on Lance because he seems so boom or bust to me, he at least seems to show he's got the work ethic you'd need to be successful in the NFL. He's got the raw ability, the athleticism, and he's willing to work. Like many, I agree that he's going to have a learning curve and adjustment period.
I'm not entirely sold on him, but, I won't be crying if we take him. Early on, I could see plenty of things Shanahan would like. I just hope we take the right guy in the end. We've gotta dip into this class. Too much talent along with questions at the position on this team to not do so.
So I would love to hear your opinion on what YOU think Lynch would/should do if Jones, Lance and maybe even Fields are all on the board at 12. Maybe you still take Surtain if there, or the big tackle? I have enjoyed your takes for years. Thanks.
I think if they have all players graded similarly, they will trade down. Judging by their history, they probably wouldn't trade down too far because they'll still want to get their top guy.
Honestly, I think that would be the right move here. We need more picks to revamp the OL, secondary, and edge depth. Adding a playmaker or two on offense couldn't hurt either. Trading down in that situation still gets us a potential QB of the future, while providing the resources to restock those other areas. We seem intent on trying to build the most balanced team possible, and I think that's a good idea. We just need to make sure we get guys that are durable...
