He was released today by KC. Last year we offered him a contract but ended up back in KC. KC gave him a 2 year 10 mil contract last year. He had some injuries issues and only started 4 games. 2 years ago, he had 5.5 sacks and 36 Ts , 11 TFL, and 2 forced fumbles. since we had interest last year and he is only 28, I can see us going after him. What do you guys think.

With the last pick i would prefer Xaiver Woods instead of Jones, but would be elated with the rest.

We have upgraded all of our needs, but think they take do BPA which means we will not be picking a QB at #3. If they value one worth the pick, I will be happy but, I have spent hours looking at information and most QB talk are based on need and truly do not have the value . I think we go with 1) Thomas, Allen, or Adams in two if one of the top QBs are left, not likely I would like us to grab Engram/TE. He will be a huge addition to our offense that will offset the potential lack of a true WR. This is Whites third year, and we forget he was views as a #1. Hopefully this is the year, he stays healthy. In the third I see us grabbing a CB like a Cordrea Tankersley/CB or a OT prospect like Garcia or R. Johnson. In the 4th we grab a QB prospect with worse odds at being successful but maybe we get lucky and find a Prescott. someone like Peterman or Dobbs. Also in the 4th this is a spot to add a CB or OT prospect that we didnt grab in the 3rd. Players like Raul Douglas or Howard Wilson at CB . OT prospects like Conor McDermott or Adam Bisnowaty In the 5th we could grab a WR prospect. K D Cannon and Kenny Golladay. In the 7th, I suspect a another saftey or CB prospect to play ST. Xaiver Woods comes to mind. so it looks this way 1) Adams/SS 2) Engram/TE 3) Cordrea Tankeersley/CB 4) Peterman/QB 4) Adam Bisnowaty/OT 5) Kenny Golladay/WR 7) Xaiver Woods/S Depending how the board falls this could be drastically off but we fill some needs with this draft. We did not add a DL but we still have releases after the draft of Veterans and maybe Bullard takes a step forward.( he was highly regarded coming out last year) some players just need more time and more strength. We will bring a couple kickers so most positions are filled.

Im thinking we do better than expected. probably 7 wins but could be 9.

the problem is you get to look back and see how the rest turned out, you do not have that luxury in the current group. I think this group is more comparable to 2013 or 14, not with the Winston and Mariota, or Wentz-Pescott group

Honestly you cant believe anything you hear right now, some of it may prove to be true, but how do you know what rumors are valid or not. There is no way Cleve passes up on a Juilius Peppers in a draft, that would be silly especially since they have the picks to move up and grab a QB if SF does not draft a QB. But then they do not have football people running the organisation right now, so may be a wild card for knowing what they will do.

They are doing the homework to find out who will be the best, but truth is, maybe they find out none of them will. They all have drawbacks. When a Andrew Luck comes out, it is very obvious, and his career has leveled off due to a lack of talent around him. You just never know who it may be , but I do not think #3 is the spot to take a chance just for sake of drafting a QB you do not believe will be special. If they do draft one, then they believe he can be, and i will trust them for it. If they are wrong, fired, if right, we make them heroes.

the two most important things for a true franchise QB is love of football and the desire to be the best he can be. It helps to have all of the rest, but without the first two, probably just good not great. The question is who has that desire? Time will tell

When they talk about Fox doing well in his second year, in this case its his third year. If everybody is healthy at the beginning of the season, we go 2-2 out of the blocks. Actually right now I will predict a Falcons upset.

I think he is one of the better experts for the draft. Not always right but very consistent.

Anything you hear now is just bullshit, what good GM is going to let the world know what players they want. That is just writers posting rumors

I believe Hooker would be our pick if not for the injury concerns, after White and some issues with Floyd last year, they have to draft a clean player. Hooker may end up not having injury issues, but hard to ignore it before the draft.

My dream draft has us trading with Cleveland and getting #12-33-65-145 for #3 1-12 Johnathan Allen/5T drops down due to his medicals. 2-1 Cam Robinson is the OT that drops down in the top 3 group. 2-4 Evan Engram/TE adds a huge target 3-1 Cordrea Tankersley/CB sneaky good playmaker with 9 interceptions the last two years. 3-3 Josh Jones/SS big hitter that has some coverage skills 4-4 Nathan Peterman/QB has some NFL skills, has been compared to Cousins by some scouts. 4-11 Derek Rivers/OLB big time small college player 5-1 Ryan Glasgow/DT a steady run defender 5-4 Josh Reynonds/WR big WR with good hands 7-3 Zane Gonzalez/K finally a worthy Gould replacement.

Love that draft with either of those two prospects. I actually like Kittle better than Leggett but so close ,it wouldnt matter.

O J Howard, I think he is a prime time player, and because he is not slated a top 5, I think he is one of the top 5 players that will come out of this draft. If anybody had the chance to draft Gronk in his prime, he would be worth a #1 pick.

The problem with taking a ILB on any picks, we have to many other holes to fill. OT could use an upgrade there WR add another playmaker with Jeffery gone TE in a run first offense, a great TE would be huge QB , yes but not high OLB we can always use pass rushers DL could use one more stud there S and CB are no brainers. So that is 8 positions we could upgrade with only 7 picks.

I seriously dont see any of the top 4 QBs being studs in the NFL. Trubisky probably becomes a Cousins type. Of which doesnt merrit a #3 pick. If you grab a Peterman, who also has been compared to Cousins , as a 4th round pick, I would be happy with that. Others with some upside, Joshua Dobbs and Jerod Evans. There is less chance any of these hit, so we might as well grab a all pro type player in the first round. If all the injuries questions on some players are good, I would say our choose would be one of these 3, Allen-Adams-Hooker. The more I read about Thomas the more I dont see him being a difference maker, but a good player.

we wont be drafting a ILB, unless Foster slips to the 4th and we just say freak and draft him. OLB may be drafted but that is an edge rusher type in this defense.

There is no rumors we are going to need a ILB that is just people that dont know what there talking about pretending to know what there talking about. Other than OG,OC ILB is the least of our worries. We have 7 picks, in those picks there will be a QB, 1 DL-1 S-1 CB-1-TE-1 WR and hopefully a OT or K but no where a ILB.

In the first round taking a QB, as much as we want a good one, I do not see any of these QBs being anymore than than Journyman. In the second taking a undesize player like a Hassam Reddick/ OLB In the third a reach type player. like a Rausl Douglas/CB that is a 4th or 5th round type.

Of course, professional scouts are 50% on first round prospects, but some are smarter than others and I lean with the group that states no QB is good enough to take top 15. As later in the back of the first and second round is where you take risky QBs.

That is the best article I have seen on QBs. It shows me all the QBs are big question marks, Trubisky seems to have the most upside, but doesnt sound worthy of a high pick. If Kirk Cousins was in this draft would you view him as the 3rd overall pick? In his draft,I think he was a 4th rounder. All of this tells me, there is to much risk with any of them to view as worth 3.

Another thing to consider is A.J. McCarron, nad Jimmy G. will also be available, the cupboard is not bare.

He is not rated high, its just people trying to make something out of nothing. They will be over drafted, not because of value but because their QBs.

I think we will not draft a QB at 3 because Pace says he will take the BPA at that spot and no QB has that value. I thiink Allen is still one of the top 5 players in this draft, and even though he has some arthritis in his shoulders, it will not affect him until later in his life. I also have changed my mind on Adams who I originally wanted, he is a very good player and leader but as many scouts have stated , he is not a special player. Hooker is a special player and if the medical reports are favorable, would think they consider him. Also Lattimore is a high end CB that if his medicals pan out would be worthy of that pick.
