No one is giving up any assets for Danny Gray.

THIS!

I can see someone swapping a 6th or 7th with us. Especially a team in need of speed. Not a great return but I think it's possible.

Agree it's a possibility.

BUT - who is going to trade for a guy that can't stay healthy?

AND hasn't proved himself as a semi-descent player.

Some team that had him on their draft board and believes in his potential. A late draft pick + his rookie contract means little risk, high reward.

Other teams know there is too much talent on this team so they will wait for him to be released like Sermon, Davis-Price and Pettis rather than give up a pick for a bottom-of-the-roster guy.

I hope you're right.

One Fred Warner is worth 2 decades of 3rd round picks.

If we keep 6 CBs, Thomas makes it.

Finding Purdy in the last round cancels out some of those mistakes. Fans love to point out the picks that fail while ignoring all the ones that worked out better than expected. Not to mention the UDFAs.

I can agree with this, cause if not for those late round hits (Purdy, Kittle, Huff) coupled with the free agents (Ward, Juice) and trades (TW, CMC) we would be in trouble and would have already fired our coach and GM again.

Maybe we should cut him now so he won't get injured tomorrow.

At the end of the day, does it really matter how Lynch, Shanahan, and co. have done in any specific draft round or isolated situation? Surely the pertinent point is that they have put together one of the best rosters in football through the various resources available.
It's like saying Purdy has been poor in the 3rd quarter or something. Meaningless.

You gotta slice-and-dice the data to look for improvement. Whatever metrics they are using for the players they rank in the 75 to 150 range has not been effective. They clearly picked a lot of guys in that range that didn't even warrant a 7th round selection.

That's his best chance to keep getting paid for doing nothing in this league.

He bounced and recaught his pass last week. I think his hands are suspect just like Cam Latu. I'm guessing both have nursed their draft spots to the max and will be cut soon.
