I'm not sure what else Drake can do. There is absolutely no seperation, we're relying on a small, ok but nothing special, slot receiver to be his primary target it's ridiculous. Nobody can get down field, nobody scares defenders, nobody demand double coverage. At no point are the DB's thinking they better sit in soft coverage in case they get burned. We need to do what the Bills did for Allen and go and get the best WR we can acquire whether it's in FA or via trade.

Also, I'm done with Polk. I'm not sure what Baker has to offer but Polk is making boneheaded decisions every week and having no positive impact. Sit Polk, let's see what we have with Baker.

They have to bring in not 1 but 2 top tier guys in the off season and it goes without saying OL.

This off season we will have something we didn't last time to attract FA, and that's a solid young QB that receivers can see a bright future with.

I'd go WR with the first pick because if they don't take a sure thing in the top 10 we will end up with another Polk or Thornton lets be real.

This depends on how they rank the tackles come April. If they believe Campbell or Banks are worth a top 7 pick then take the tackle in the first. If they believe they are mid round values then take Johnson ( CB) or MacMillan ( WR) and then trade up to mid first and take Ersery (OT).
 
Next draft a stud WR is the # 1 pick.

Focus on OL after.
 
They could've just stayed put and taken McConkey. . . .
I don't watch the draft... but that's pretty dumb... considering his resume at GA.(bringing in kids that expect championships is a good idea)

I thought he went before Polk...

What did they do to whiff on that?

Harbaugh saw enough of him in college to draft up...

They had the #34 pick. The Chargers traded #37 and #110 for it, and took McConkey. The Pats used those picks on Polk and Baker.
 
They have plenty cap space and a very nice draft pick to get him help at wr and OL, as well as get an impact player on d at each level to make it a nice unit.
 
Heck, check out the guys at WR who dusted this Pats defense today.

3rd round, 69th overall
5th round, 127th overall
Yep. WR that early in the draft is extremely risky. He'd have to be a once in a generation Calvin Johnson type player for me to take a risk.
 
Tet McMillian with his amazing size and catch radius would be perfect for Maye.
I think Gronk was the last UofA offensive guy they drafted and he worked out pretty well. I actually saw both Luck and Gronk play when I was in AZ. Stanford and UofA respectively.
 
Should have drafted Harrison Jr at 3, Milton would be having a field day throwing to him.
Thats a truly winning formula. Bravo sir, I wish you were making the decisions. Team would be 11-0 right now.

Please add the ability to actually catch a pass to your list. The number of drops to start the game were a big reason that the game got out of hand.
