D A Y – T W O – D R A F T

Well, we traded down twice out of the 1st round, swapped a 4th for a 3rd and gained a 6th round pick. But there are still a lot of good players available.

My son thinks we are going with Boston. I think we go with Howell. Could still go O line with Chase Bisontis. Safety with Emmanuel McNeil-Warren or Treden Stukes. Reading the Chron this morning they referenced the Niners 1986 draft.

No 1st round pick but they nailed it. Wow. A few small-school guys thrown in the mix.

Round 2, Pick 39: Larry Roberts, DE (Alabama)
Round 3, Pick 56: Tom Rathman, FB (Nebraska)
Round 3, Pick 64: Tim McKyer, DB (Texas-Arlington)
Round 3, Pick 76: John Taylor, WR (Delaware State)
Round 4, Pick 96: Charles Haley, DE (James Madison)
Round 4, Pick 101: Steve Wallace, OT (Auburn)
Round 4, Pick 102: Kevin Fagan, DE (Miami)
Round 5, Pick 131: Pat Miller, LB (Florida)
Round 6, Pick 162: Don Griffin, DB (Middle Tennessee State)

No wonder they called Walsh a genius. This is one of the best drafts in NFL history.

    It has been considered one of the great drafts in history for a long time. It really was a major factor in back-to-back Super Bowls wins. One can only hope we can do something half as good as that draft.

    I would like an OG or edge, but more than that, I would like to take the best player available if he really stands out on our board.

    There is a CB that dropped because of a January 2025 knee injury that caused him to miss the 2025 season. He probably would’ve been a top 10 pick if healthy in 2025. If the knee is 100%, he would be the best available, by far. Problem is our history with drafting injured players is not very good.

      Pregnon might be the best fit for the scheme. He has quick feet and strong hands. In Kyle Shanahan’s offense, Emmanuel Pregnon may just be the perfect build. He seems like the safe pick, the one Kyle Shanahan can trust right away.

      the above from 49erswebzone.com

      that cb.is not fully healthy with a pin issue put in on his surgery which was from a comment I cannot find right now

Super Bowl Win, Purdy Please
