Peters said the 49ers became more convinced they should target Banks the more they studied him. Offensive line coach Chris Foerster has a good relationship with Notre Dame's former offensive line coach. The university also reported that Banks' so-called "squat-peak power" — which measures how forcefully Banks could ascend from a squat lift — was in the "rare" classification.

The 49ers also consulted their own research and development department, which conducts advanced analytics on the draft prospects. That group put Banks in the 93rd percentile when it came to pass blocking on play-action snaps, something the 49ers use often.

Peters also watched Banks in person at Notre Dame's pro day on March 31. He had been 338 pounds two months earlier at the Senior Bowl. He dropped to 325 at the pro day.

"At the pro day, you saw the real quickness," Peters said. "So for someone that big to be that quick — is he as quick as a (former Stanford and current Falcons center) Drew Dalman? No, probably not. But if you combine a guy who's that big and has good enough feet like he has. And even if he's not as quick as he needs to be, he's so big that if he gets on a guy it's really hard to get around him."

Great find NY. That 93rd percentile on play action passes is probably the most valuable asset an OL can have for our team. NC is pleased and I'm ecstatic

Great info there

Let's not even bring up Rachel's name in here. Banks is 10 times the player that guy was. That dude was one of those addition by subtraction guys. We cut his ass and the OL instantly improved.

Wonder why he changed from #62 to #65, gotta say though I'm digging the change. #65 is such a perfect number for a guard, always use it for the best lineman I draft in Madden lol
