There is a very real possibility that T'Vondre Sweat falls to our pick @108 If that happens I hope Kwesi pulls the trigger and drafts him

If nothing else, this gives us all a reason to pay attention to every minicamp, every preseason game and every regular season game, no matter how bad we are. I'm going to give the kid a chance and here's hoping we got it right. The, "Nix was Denver's target all along" media need to chill, though. If you are super confident you have found your franchise qb, you don't sit there and wait until #12. There's still every chance he was our 6th rated QB, which scares me for sure.

Pearsall, who grew up in Chandler, Ariz., said he’s never met Purdy, who’s from nearby Gilbert. But he said he remembers playing Purdy’s team in high school in 2017. “I’ll be the first to admit it,” Persall said. “We played each other. I think he put 70 on my team. I remember him because he was in the end zone a lot.” Pearsall was good that day. He had eight catches for 184 yards and two touchdowns. Purdy, however, had four passing touchdowns in the 70-24 win.

The team took several phone calls for Aiyuk in the run-up to the draft with a few more coming on Thursday. None, however, came close to the mid-first-round selection the 49ers needed to seriously consider moving their top wideout. According to a league source, the best offer the 49ers got was for a second-round pick. Another team picking in the middle of the draft discussed an Aiyuk trade that involved swapping first-round picks, though there was never any formal offer.

Run Left is back, baby!

2022 has netted us two All-Pros and a Pro Bowler just halfway through their rookie contracts. Is that somehow below average? The 2nd and 3rd rounders leave something to be desired, but DAL typically sets themselves up well to have excess capital via comp picks.

Legit could not ask for a better outcome for those wanting a CB! No trade, #1 CB on the board?? GTFOH!

Pearsall is the definition of DAWG. People are concerned about his weight, he's 189. He freaking benched 225 for 17 reps!! That's freaking insane for a frame like that. He blocks like a maniac. People are going to be surprised at this guy.

So here’s my overall thought on the pick. I personally had Latham and Fashanu similarly graded, with Alt graded slightly above them. Alt was a top 7 guy while those two were top 12 guys for me. That’s why the initial reaction was disappointment mixed with meh because I really would’ve preferred to trade back to grab him. The thing with the draft and what fans and some draft analysts miss out on is that 1)You need a trade partner to trade back and 2)You never truly know how the league views a guy. Just because we think we could’ve traded back and grabbed him doesn’t mean that would’ve actually happened. Latham has all the physical tools you look for in a tackle and is entering the league with a truly elite trait/skill. His anchor/strength. That right there is a great enough starting point for Callahan to work with. Add to the fact he’s 21 with so much room to grow and there’s plenty to be excited for. Unless he’s an Andre Dillard/Denis Daley level disaster, I truly hope we stick him at LT full time this season and don’t try to flip flop him between RT and LT. Stick him at one position (LT) his rookie year like we did with Skoronski, even if there may be a bit of growing pain(I felt that’d be the case with my guy Alt too btw), and go from there. The potential of the left side with he and Skoronski is scary. Overall, based on veteran draft guys (Zierlein and Cosell) and quotes from anonymous front office guys in the league, it feels like the league in general was way higher on him than the consensus between most fans and draft analysts. And at the end of the day, I was always of the mindset that whoever Papa Callahan co-signs for I’m all for.
