    @Sneakdefreak shit, i wanted him at the Broncos

    We are desperate at RB (and the entire o-line to be fair. oh, and Qtrback. fuck)

    This RB draft is deep - there can be value had all the way through.

    O Line this draft is weak, same as QB.

    @KiwiMurph Next pick for the 49ers will be a DB, followed by a RB imo.

    Holy crap - the 49ers trade up to the back end of the first round and select Reuben Foster - who was a top 10 talent who dropped due to a shoulder issue and some off field stuff.

    The trade up basically cost the 49ers nothing cos they used the extra pick they got for the trade down with Thomas.

    49ers nail it again. Wow what a night they've had.

    Winner so far is the Saints. Get the best CB in the draft at 11 due to other teams picking offence first. Now they don't need Malcolm Butler.

    Bucs are winners as well.. They picked up a great TE.. i was expecting the Titans to pick him up.. load Mariota with weapons

    49ers have to be in the conversation as winners. Their haul tonight is Solomon Thomas, Reuben Foster and 2 future mid round picks.

    For swindling the Bears alone, they're winners. Chicago is now paying starter money to two QBs and no one knows if either are legit starters.

    The Browns had a pretty good day. They got Garrett, Peppers and Njoku and picked up another 1st round pick for next year.

    Yeah but they're the Browns. They'll fuck it up.

    I agree. If it wasn't the Browns, that'd be a helluva haul.

    All jokes aside, I like how they're doing things right now. They know they're not good enough yet, so they're just accumulating picks. It's a smart way to rebuild a team with lots of holes.

    It's also a smart way to accumulate enough draft capital to trade for a Jimmy G, Cousins or up in the draft for a first round QB next year (which is supposedly much stronger at the QB position than this year's draft).

    They will likely get a high pick next year too, so if they're lucky, they might not need to trade up to draft their favorite QB. They're smart not reaching for a QB this year, even though it's a glaring need, but the value just isn't there. With their analytical approach now, they're going to go for guys who match or exceed the value of the pick.

    Browns took QB DeShone Kizer in the second round so seems like he is their guy. Was hoping he would fall into the third and 49ers could create the storyline of picking another Notre Dame QB in the third (last was Joe Montana).

    Good value for the 2nd round. Some had Kizer as the best QB of the draft, although that might not be saying much.

    They still have two 1st rounders and three 2nd rounders next year, so they could still draft a QB next year if Kizer isn't quite up to.

    49ers make another good pick in the 3rd round - CB Ahkello Witherspoon from Colorado. He's 6'3 and one of the many DBs in this draft who can be a starter from game one.

    49ers trade up and take Iowa QB CJ Beathard. Great name but questionable pick. Probably better to wait until the 4th round but hey, what do I know. Best to stick with the Shanaplan.

    Yeah at least Shanahan is picking a qb for his system which will be around for a while. It's a system fit.

    @KiwiMurph At least they are stockpiling picks. They got a second round pick in 2018 from the Vikings. Seems they will wait on Kirk Cousins and if that doesn't work out, draft a QB in next year's stronger class. Beathard is probably there to be the career backup like a Tony Banks or Curtis Painter.

    @Sneakdefreak completely agree. Smart move. I also like the fact theyve picked a smart QB coming out of a pro style system in college too - which is quite rare these days - a much easier transition into a complicated Shanahan offense.
