I was pretty happy with who I got in each spot, but the complete lack of day 2 picks meant that Jayden had to be enough to win it.
Yeah I really liked your draft, I think it's probably quite close to reality. Although I think Daniels is locked into the commies at 2. But still stacking managed to get some pieces I absolutely love.

What kind of trading up scenario do you like?
I went to third because that's as high as I could get without trading future picks. I was going to take whichever of Maye or Daniels was still available.

I think, with the reality of the QB tax. I don't actually want to trade up to 2/3. Maybe 4/5. But I think it'll cost more than I'd be willing to pay. 11&23 for 4/5 might be what the trade charts say is fine, but really, those teams are going to squeeze us if we want to come up and I'd rather not part with 3 1s for 1 guy. When we could get someone like Penix at 11 and a bluechip defensive player at 23. I think the needs of the team as a whole is more than just a QB. I'm not averse to trading back. Like GR did in his mock, pulling back and getting a fist full of second and thirds is really an interesting prospect.

I like the trading back approach too, but we’re not quite as QB desperate.
I’ll be really curious to see where Penix goes.
reply
I think he gets reached for. It's that 1st round 5th year option benefit. Plus general QB tax.
reply
I think so too. There are so many QB needy teams. Why wouldn't one of them trade into the back of the 1st to grab him?
reply
I think the 49ers might trade back if they can’t get an OLine or DLine stud.
reply
Would it have to be an OT or would they consider interior guys with that pick?
I think the stud tackles and d-linemen will be gone.
I think the Commies are taking Maye.
reply
There's a lot of smoke surrounding Maye. The draft hype/fluff surrounding him reminds me of Levis. Who fell a long way. Maye is sliding down analysts boards for some reason. But it could easily be teams "leaking" fake news to get him to fall.
reply
Peters touched the hot stove drafting Lance when he was with the 49ers. I think this time around he will go for less potential upside and more polished QB. Just my opinion.
reply
Yeah, you make a good point. I can see it for sure. Man I'm so excited for draft night. I think this year is going to see a lot of action.
reply
I am hope we can do a live chat during first round of the draft. Not sure you will be able to join due to time difference but maybe at least until the Vikings first pick?
reply
I might be able to. It really depends. It's at 5pm BST so I should be able to catch some of the first round for sure.
