The 2nd and 3rd Round Draft Picks/Prospects

Needs in tiers

QB - tier 1

OT/CB - tier 2

Edge/S/G - tier 3

TE tier - tier 4

BPA can change when you get to tier 3 You obviously cannot neglect QB and OT and to a slightly lesser extent CB. Forbes and BSJ might be elevated with coaching but they might be complete disasters.

Just in reading the tea leaves on top 30 visits and per Ben Standig 49ers had a history of drafting out of their top 30 visits…just based on who they brought in…Tackle, Tight End and Edge seemed to be a focus as they brought in guys in that 2nd round -early 3rd round range.

You have to believe that WR, CB and LB is still a need.

Keim also hinted at maybe drafting 2 Tackles in the 2nd and 3rd as a possibility

That is just my wish list , i knew I was forgetting something which was wr. I would put that in tier 3. I don’t think TE is an immediate need but would not be upset if Sanders or someone of that ilk is sitting there in the third round and we got them. We definitely need two tackles. LB is not a need this year but you don’t overlook one if he falls to you. End of the day I really just want QB, OT, and CB after day 2 and everything else is gravy. Rome wasn’t built in one draft.

It is interesting that they didn't bring in any WR, smoke screen or just no interest in drafting one before the 3rd round I wonder.

Should be BPA every pick imo. I'd probably steer clear of DT and C, but even there dpth is good.

This team isn't good enough to worry about need.

Preach.

2nd worst record in the NFL last year and somehow we're concerned about who to draft.

For the record I agree, not much need at DT. But there are very few positions on this roster that doesn't need a young talented rookie on a cheap contract.

Aside from OT, CB is the most pressing need. Either DeJean, or McKinstry would help.

CB being a pressing need kind of shows how bad the last draft was for the Redskins.

I think it's a bit too soon to consider last year's draft bad - with regard to the DBs taken. Many - including DQ think Forbes can play, and a lot of good things have been said about Martin as well. Either way, another CB with the potential to start won't hurt and it appears we may have the opportunity to pick a good one early in the 2nd.

Cooper DeJean looks like he could play CB/Safety and excels as a kick returner.
His highlight reel on YouTube is impressive. Fast, athletic and physical.
As much as I want OL the most, if DeJean is there, BPA logic leans to taking him.

The best OL ranked in round two (not reaching for one) are interior lineman.
There are a couple of LB’s that are lining up BPA and we need.
OT might be a reach at 36 and 40 with who is left.

defensive players are definitely the best value in top of the 2nd right now (and WR), and CB is a need. A bit bummed we missed on the better OTs though. We're in a good spot to get 2 players ranked above our slots, so it's not all bad.
