Most players hate being tagged because they want $50M + guaranteed now instead of the one year guarantee. So they hate being tagged twice even more

Even if we sign (which we should) a mid range RT and a few DT’s as noted above, I would still look to draft 2 OL and 2 DL in the first 4 rounds; maybe trade down the 2nd pick and grab another 3rd or 4th so we can also nab a RB, CB or TE. For me the time is now to get serious on the two lines.

But we could tag Tee twice. If Joe's contract does not kick in until 2025, then a new Chase deal would not kick in until 2026? So we could afford the 2025 tag on Tee? He would not betoo happy but that's business.

I suspect that any of Guyton, Lathem, Mims or Fuaga could step in and play at least as well as Jonah initially and then much better down the road. Lathem and Fuaga are probably better than Jonah already.

I dont think anyone really wants Wilson, declining abilities with rising self arrogance.

Dane Brugler has an updated Top 100 https://theathletic.com/5270481/2024/02/13/nfl-draft-2024-prospect-rankings-top-100/

Calahan earning his HC gig here so he will likley follow what he learned here. No need to make a splash trade at all, just pick up good players and strat re-tooling. I have zero doubt we tag Higgins and it will probably piss him off but who cares. Use him for another year and perhaps we get a SB win. Jones in KC - he will go for top doallar now, he has won 3 titles so this will be his big money contract. I dont see KC paying him what a lower tier team can.

Some of the 49er players said they did not know both teams have to possess the ball now in OT. How f#cking dumb are these guys? That is a pretty basic rule, I get they may not know the rulebook front to back but come on...soem thought when they gotthe field goal they won LOL. On another note, Joe can definitlely go toe to toe with Kermit and Lou can go toe to toe with Spags but I am not sure Zac is anywhere near Reid and Tobin's group is anywhere near the Chiefs personnel group. They are not invincable by any measure but they will always be formidable with the coaches and personnel people (and Kermit) they have.

What is the “punter” position? Seems new to me

I have it on good authority that the Bengals will go RT in Round 1. That good authority is all the mocks drafts I have done.

Well, if we do release him I would say that would be, to me, a completion of the “changing of the guard” and the end of any influence Mikey has.

That may be the fans preference but I think Mikey would put his foot down on that after Mixon agreed to a reduced deal last year. That kind of deal Mikey will not back away from.

A few of the draft pundits have said is clearly the best IOL in the draft. This was before the senior bowl.

Probably but I am sure many teams are worried about his weight and commitment to conditioning.

You will just have to get over it LOL. The draft, in hindsight is a muggs game. Every team has piles of 'coulda, woulda,shoulda'. You have to look at any team in terms of picks over a long period of tiem to see how well they draft, not at any individual pick. We have drafted well above average over say the last 5 years but not as well say the Ravens or Chiefs. Recent articles with Tobin and Potts talking about the team and draft2, they both spouted how important it was for the OL/DL to be strong - yet we ahve not always or often set premium picks to those positions. So maybe but specifically stating it this year it will be a focus in the draft? One can always hope. 2 OL and 2 DL in the first 4 rounds!!

He is the next Shelvin

In my playing around with mocks - I have started to draft OL with the top 3 picks lol. It would never happen but man would that be a statement

Yes, but he has to be at his best, he can be very inconsistent

If the 49ers lose today they will be back to the “great team but need a QB upgrade” thing

And that is not a bad thing….

Year after year, Bucky Brooks finishes last in how close his mocks are to the actual draft.

It’s like Amway, pyramid scheme

I beleive Stover is returning to school so he is not in this draft

They have really only run the ball with intention when they are up in the score and running out the clock. Otherwise, they lean far too heavily on the pass, we all know that , defenses know it so Zac should also know it.
