Wow, Burke at 79! I was hoping that we could get him with a 3rd but it looks like a 2nd, maybe a trade back into the 3rd will be needed. Basically, if we like him enough to draft him, we're given the choice of EDGE then RT or RT then EDGE as our first and second picks.

Also Keyron Crawford at 54. That sucks too.

The good thing, is that whichever direction we want to go at 31, the board lines up really well.

EDGE - Mesidor, Parker, Lawrence, Young, (with Jacas, Thomas and Howell a little further back)

RT - Miller, Iheanachor

LB - Rodriguez

All within easy reach of 31.

The Mesidor dream is alive!

manxman2601 · Apr 8, 2026

Was starting the process of reading The Beast and the below caught my attention. This should keep @PatsFan2 busy for a while. 380 WRs!

manxman2601 · Apr 8, 2026

Ugh!

Stribling has a 2nd-3rd round grade.

Colbie Young a 4th - 5th.

Skyler Bell with a 4th though which is good.

Mesidor getting a lot of live from SF draftniks:

Top 2026 edge rusher prospects compared to 49ers greats

The 49ers could see shades of their best players in the 2026 edge rusher draft class.

1. Will Kacmarek with a 4th round grade. Ugh.

2. We don't need a center but the 3rd round is the sweet spot. Brugler has 5 (Slaughter, Hecht, Jones, Lew, Zuhn) all with a 3rd-4th grade.

3. If we want a Tonga replacement, Tim Keenan from 'Bama (6-7 round grade) or Dontay Corleone (7-UDFA) line up really nicely in terms of value. Keenan had a bit of a down year comparitively, but in '24 had a 90 run defense grade. The godfather has 4 straight years of excellent run defense grades.

4. Taurean York and Deontae Lawson are both 6-7 round grades. Interesting value at that point. Rolder is a 4th, Jefferson a 5th-6th.

Water Boy · Apr 8, 2026

I'm nervous about missing out on Mesidor and Iheanachor. I think that there are too many teams in need of immediate DE help and high upside OT.

mayoclinic · Apr 8, 2026

I think a small trade up may be required if either is a priority target.

What about Jeff Caldwell?? He more than looks the part also Sturdivant. This Class have some Big WR's who kind of underperformed in College.

PatsFan2 · Apr 8, 2026

IF we come away with that Cmac Clone Swiss army knife Navy kid I'd be very happy.

Caldwell has a 5th-6th round grade as does your other guy Cyrus Allen.

That's life in the fast lane.

IF that's the case both Chris Bell and Ted Hurst are possible First Rounders now.

April fools better than him will probably go later.

Brugler has a solid 2nd on Bell and solid 3rd on Hurst. Could be that you're over-valuing them..

Brugler on Keyron Crawford

Motor is always revving; describes his play style as a “Rottweiler or bulldog — something that is going to bite you.”

High-character person and player (NFL scout: “You always see him working, but the coaches say he does even more when people aren’t watching.”)
