Ambry Thomas, CB - Michigan, 3rd Round Pick

49ers definitely got left at the altar here. I'd bet anything Molden and Melifonwu had to be ahead of Thomas on their board, and Lynch acknowledged that Adebo was as well. The trade up for Sermon might have been better spent on either Molden or Melifonwu... Sermon may have been available at 102. Heck, they may have had eyes on Asante Samuel in round 2 also.

Thomas is the bare minimum investment at DB and it is slim pickings the rest of the way.

Yeah, I felt like 2-3 times their target might have been picked right before them. Lynch alluded to that as well.

Apparently he was Adam Peters baby, he championed him.

Lynch said we were interested in Adebo (went 76th), not shocked. Lynch loves his Stanford guys.

Ambry Thomas was an Adam Peters pick. Lynch said that Thomas picked up steam throughout the process, as Peters championed him

They might be targeting Trey Thomas on day 3.

Kid has versatility he can play inside/outside. Good ball skills and a great tackler.

not sure I'm putting him on an island but for what we ask our DBs to do he should be fine. I think he will find himself on the field sooner than later based on being able to play all over the place.

solid pick. Probably goes higher if he played this yr.
