SF was constantly tossing $ around the last 5+ yrs, almost got two rings for it. Time to do what LA did and reset with young hungry players. This is a great draft to build up the DL, which is by far the worst position group on the roster currently.

Now I would have liked Dalman, because the way this draft goes I feel like we can address both lines however it is hard to address the center, but agreed they could literally draft trenches the first 6 picks and it wouldn't be a bad thing. Simply put, they have to draft well.

If it's true he wanted to be LB1 then he was looking for something the Niners couldn't match.

Pathetic they couldn't match that! That's low value LB1

You misread what I said. The Niners couldn't make him LB1 with Warner here. That's what they couldn't match, not the $.

I think people see the approach: make the roster younger and cheaper via the draft. They're just not comfortable with it because it's not "sexy" and it's also risky—what if all your draft picks bust or take years to actually contribute? And determining whether the picks are hits or not is a long-term process in and of itself. I still wouldn't call the 2024 draft successful yet because it's only been a year—we're ASSUMING they'll all develop well but we still don't know yet.

"Just restart the roster with our 11 draft picks!!" is much easier said than done. It COULD work out but we have to hit on most of them, and not a single draft pick is a sure thing. And even if they are hits, they could take 2-3 years before they're actually very good.

I too, dream of having a 2012 Seahawks draft and suddenly being Super Bowl favorites. But that's just not going to happen. A 2012 49ers draft is about 10 times more likely.

Good post. Easier said then done. And the Rams didn't rebuild it all in one draft either. More like two. Let's hope out FO gets it right and that our coach will actually let these young dudes play without being forced to due to injury.

If they draft well along the offensive and defensive line this is a playoff team.

Yes it is.... Hope we do something with both lines. This is a good draft all around from what I hear. Mason Graham may fall to us which is the start. We need a center in the 2nd and a guard in the 3rd. We may pick up a corner with our other 3rd and will be looking good for the future if we hit on those picks. Then we can look at next year for other pieces.

We still have the heart Kittle and Warner on both sides but it's going to be tough this year. Hopefully Purdy can do well so we have some hope for the future.

True but we can say that about half the teams in the league if not more.

Doesn't look like he's gonna have any choice but to play them.

I wouldn't mind at all if they take him in the 1st if there isn't an OL they want. They need DL as we know but there are enough of them available that they can get one in the second or third. Maybe trade up and get another first or another 2nd. Losing Greenlaw makes LB a priority. They can't go into the season with Warner and ?. Campbell would be able to replace Warner when he retires or if he gets injured.

100%. Aside Greenlaw I wanted nobody retained. FA is mostly mediocre players getting overpaid so basically I am very happy they aren't doing anything stupid.

Now I would have liked Dalman, because the way this draft goes I feel like we can address both lines however it is hard to address the center, but agreed they could literally draft trenches the first 6 picks and it wouldn't be a bad thing. Simply put, they have to draft well.

Dalman was overrated imo. Subpar pass blocker and that's what everyone was complaining about.

Only Nixon could go to China, at least that is what Mike Mansfield once said. Then let me say this, only the ultimate Razorback homer on these boards can say this: "Mods, please, it is time for this thread to be moved."

At some point you have to do that though. If you don't draft well regardless your team isn't gonna be good.

This FA class stinks overall and all the guys we've moved on from were all expected to leave. Dre was the only guy I hoped they could resign and he cant stay on the field.

if this FO has shown they can build a good roster which has mainly happened via the draft (and a couple trades) time to do it again…I'd say most of our higher end FA signings have been busts (outside of Ward).
