2024 Early Bird Draft Thread

So we take QB at 2. What else would it take if we trade one of our seconds and one of our thirds to move up and get one of the more highly touted Tackles like a Mims or a Latham? We would still have 7 picks in this years draft. We are taking a quarterback at 2 we absolutely need to put people in front of him who can play immediately. We currently have a C, a RG, and a LG I am comfortable with. Outside of those three, Biadasz, Allegretti, and Cosmi we have Stromberg who is a question mark. There is really nothing at Tackle and no depth at G.

A few years back, we traded our second rounder and the next year's second rounder to jump back in to the first round to get Montez. I don't see why we couldn't do something along those lines again this year.

I wouldn't mind in the least if we traded up to the first round get a top Tackle. I think we should look into trading for a current NFL tackle, as well.

I would be on board with that.


Also Chief you are right. That was for I believe the last pick in the first though and Sweat wasn’t probably as sought after as Mims or Latham. Im thinking we need to get another pick in the first in the top 15 to assure one of those types of Tackles. A second and third should do that. I think?

To get that high up will probably take both seconds

If SF69 was GM no doubt I am trading back. The reason is I don't think the top 3 QB's that the media has shoved down our throats are as good as advertised for the pro game. They're going to be overdrafted cause QB's always are.

Doesn't matter what the media says... Peters and co will go by their own evaluations of these guys and decide. They will know a lot more about these QBs than the media or any of us.

People still on the Sam bandwagon when we have the #2 pick in a strong QB class have me like

I feel you. I really do. I don't have faith in CW or JD like I don't have faith in Lamar to win a SB. Just that prototype of qb is not my preference and always worry about longevity. Drake Maye in the draft would be basically duplicating Sam in many ways (not just unc connection, but throwing power, accuracy and I feel like he had struggled reading defenses and I feel like NONE of the 3 can look off a corner or safety... Sam also better eacapability and wheels. Guy is very good at it.) which also seems pointless to me. I don't know it's tough. I will always back whoever we choose of course. I just don't see it... the hype reminds me of when we took chase young at #2 - i watched his tape and it really wasnt anything that special. All the holes in his game were on full display IMO. Running around tackles in college isnt really shit... i hated the pick... then he showed us flashes made some places, won ROY and then fell of because a lazy loaf injury or no injury. I see decent highlights on the qbs up for grabs but there tons of holes, too. Will they fix them? Who knows.... Also scarred from RG3 running qb I think lol.

I dunno. Just saw enough in Sam and really think if given a fair chance, last year was not that, he will develop into a very good long term qb in this league. Just the 2 cents but I feel the naysayers pov, too, understandable.

Editing a post on the phone sometimes takes forever.So I'm just going to make a new one.And maybe content for that record.Everyone keeps talking about while there will not be any advantage in learning curve for any q b's versus sam Having the experience of a whole year in the league playing at the NFL speed.And tempo against professionally coached defenses and athletes definitely counts for something. Part of me feels like peters may have learned something or even be a little bit gunshy after the lance situation(minus giving away picks of course). A small part of me thinks that they may stick with sam.... off my thoughts, my worse fear is we spend #2, they aren't up to par and Sam beats them out / comes in b/c injury and takes the job. That'd be worst case scenario. Pending he's even still with the team come week 1

Amen.

I'd take Maye, but I have absolute trust in Peters.

I haven't said that since Bobby B was around.

It's fine and understandable for everyone to judge Sam but... give any 3 of these "top 3" sams situation the past 2 years and last year with a new offense? ... I feel a below 5% chance they do any better than he did and since that's his biggest knock? I just don't see the logic behind calling these 3 guys "better" without playing an NFL down. Such are rookie qbs tho 🤷
