Ugh Banks better be a monster because we passed up some damn good talent for a freaking RG

You really hate OL. LOL

Stop it.

you damn well know I care about OL my mocks back that up every yr…I hate reaching for a position that is not vastly important or on a player that I didn't feel was overall that special.

I'll bet you didn't even really know who Banks was before we drafted him

You really hate GUARDS. Sorry.

Don't think you spend a top 50 pick on a RG who really isn't that special imo.

if you're spending that draft capital on one of the least important positions on the team, he'd better be a f**king stud.

It's remarkable you still have this archaic take after watching it cost us #6 and watching your QB get his ankle shredded hanging by a thread because of Laken Tomlinson twice in the same season! And even more so after they spent capitol to get your QB who is going to need excellent pass protection to grow and who runs inside a ton. And even more so after watching the league MVP be reduced to a high school QB in the Superbowl without quality OL play.

It's no coincidence Kyle finally took the G position seriously in the same year he drafted his FQB.

It's more about maxing out value of a draft position not disregarding protecting a QB. This isn't like the Bengals passing on Sewell for Chase. There were a few first round value picks still available. Now our FO may have had Banks as the BPA and if that was the case then that's great but I'd completely disagree with that assessment from our FO.
I have to admit I was surprised ShannaLynch spent that high a pick on an interior OL, that seems to be against their draft approach... they cheaped out on Guard the last several years and it worked OK, but perhaps they thought they were one decent Guard away from getting the OL where they wanted it

Lol again you're missing the whole point of what I said like you have been on this subject for the past couple years.

literally it's not worth talking to you about it anymore…your incredibly stubborn about this topic. Whatever at this pt with you about this

Actually it has far more to do with the prospects that were available. Like has been repeated ad nauseum the last few years the crop of IOL weren't very good.

But you, like NY, would never VALUE a G that high, hence why you have different position values than our own FO. And that starts with an archaic take on the position.

What position/player did you value more than G at that point? And what was your plan to address a wide open 1K-snap hole at RG that needs a starter?

No....no it didn't. They are second biggest reason why the 49ers lost the superbowl.

Ojulari or Marshall. Meinerz instead of Sermon in the 3rd. Who says no?
