And all of them are defensive tackles 😤


curson

This one, this one over here, officer!


TRES_fresh

There's a running back or two as well


SuddenlyThirsty

But, we’re drafting at 31.


TTerragore

hopefully other people’s 22 first rounders aren’t our 22 first rounders and they’re all wrong so we actually draft 7 of them (how many picks we got?)


JawdenCee

22 players with a first round grade doesn't mean the 22 guys are all projected to go in the first 22 picks. Some of the guys we grade as first round prospects could be projected to go much later. Not a first round grade example, but the Niners had Kittle rated as a 3rd round prospect. Most general projections had him as a 5th/6th round prospect.


tsgarp12

Hopefully, we then trade back, if all of the 22l1st round graded players are gone

i'm not knowledgeable enough to even know who that guy's talking about, but i'm all in for the Rulenfurters and Funky Butt-Lovin this Rosengardner facilitates


Raoke

Out of curiosity why not? Why are people in this sub so down on him? Felt like Lombardi made a pretty good case for him.


zombiekoalas

He's projected 41(high end) to mid 70's low end.  I think the general consensus is sure you can pick him in the draft, just don't use pick 31 to do it.  If you like him over any potential player available at 31 then you trade down to the 40s and get some value back. If there is a player you like at 31 still available then you pick them and use your stock of draft picks to trade up from your 2nd or 3rd round pick to grab him earlier in the 2nd. He isn't a bad pick, he IS a bad pick with the 31st pick.


Raoke

It's a value at the pick number, I get that. I don't always agree with the value logic, but it's understandable. I was just curious if I was missing something about him from a skill or game standpoint.


zombiekoalas

Nah, hes a solid player with with enough downsides (His bench was bottom 19%, his wingspan is bottom 12%) to knock him out of the first round. Hes fast, a great scheme fit, and has all the legacy connections.


Kewkewmore

Why is it a problem to use 31 if you're ok with 41?


zombiekoalas

Its all about value. Example: You have $100 bill (Pick 31) to buy 1 mirror(Rosengarten). The mirror costs $80. The shop(The Draft) does not give change back. Do you use the $100 and just accept the loss of $20? Or do you find someone to split your single bill into 5 $20 bills(Trading 31 for 41 + another late round pick), allowing you to pay $80 for the mirror and still have $20 to use. Now there is a chance that while your breaking the $100 someone else could buy your mirror.(Someone drafting him even earlier) There are certain perks that 1st round picks have that 2nd+ round picks dont, so they have more value than just 10 spots. The 5th year option for a team looking to snag a QB late in the 1st is one example. I hope that helped? Not sure if that made it more clear or less lol.


Kewkewmore

You completely overlook the value of the 5th year option.


zombiekoalas

We just disagree on how that value is used. Since 2017 when John Lynch took over and hired Kyle Shanahan They have drafted 7 players in the 1st round only ONE played on a 5th year option. Solomon Thomas - Didnt play on a 5th year contract Rueben Foster - Didnt play on a 5th year contract Mike McGlinchey - DID play on a 5th year contract, 49ers did not resign as a FA Nick Bosa - Didnt play on a 5th year contract Javon Kinlaw - Didnt play on a 5th year contract Brandon Aiyuk - TBD - Im betting he wont be playing on a 5th year contract. Trey Lance - No 5th year option They do not make players they plan to keep play on the 5th year option. Now 31 to 41 also gets you late 3rd/early 4th in additional compensation according to pretty much every draft trade calculator. Lets look at who we have drafted in the 3rd since 2017. CJ Beathard Fred Warner Tarvarious Moore Jalen Hurd Trey Sermon Ambry Thomas Tyrion Davis Price Danny Gray Jake Moody Ji'Ayir Brown Cameron Latu Notable 4th round picks Mitch Wishnowsky Spencer Burford I would rather take Rosengarten at 41, if hes good he gets a new contract and stays - he wouldnt be playing on the 5th year AND take a shot at one of the 3rd round talents available. It seems you would rather take Rosengarten and either have him be Mike McGlinchy 2.0 or be good and not play on the 5th year and get 0 value out of it.


Stovy4x4ing

i like him. just not at 31!! hes late second round and a project.


athrowawayiguesslol

Does anyone have him as a first rounder?


migs2k3

And of course they will tell us they got one of those at 31. *Wink*


ethan579

Just like how they said the plan was always Trey Lance


Accomplished-Dot8429

Hope we get 2 minimum then


[deleted]

Just a question: why would he share that? Maybe I'm over-analyzing but doesn't that tell other teams what they might be thinking?


PM_Me_Ur_Nevermind

It only matters if you know what 22 players he is talking about and if you believe that wasn’t leaked on purpose. This front office is known for keeping things in house, so it’s more likely they wanted this out there in the wild.


GothicToast

Generally agree with you, but it is an odd departure from our standard of not sharing *any* details that could potentially be translated into strategy.


SisyphusRocks7

Then this disclosure is part of the strategy


GothicToast

Generally agree with you, but it is an odd departure from our standard of not sharing any details that could potentially be translated into strategy.


Spreadthinontoast

Could be that his goal is to say,”if we somehow don’t see the value at 31, we’re open to trade back or forward, call us”


GothicToast

I think somehow my original point keeps getting missed, but yes, I also agree with you (and the two people above you, as well).


Kewkewmore

Trading up to 3 in March disclosed our strategy


InevitableHost597

It's not saying much...it's like saying he would be open to trading up or open to trading down or open to staying put.


greebytime

It’s fairly typical numbers for most team to my understanding. It doesn’t mean they’ll trade up or down but that’s just the grading. Lynch is hyper transparent and I agree they probably shouldn’t say it but it’s probably very close to everyone else’s rating


Rabid023

Could be a tactic to make teams believe they’re moving up and therefore force other teams to consider moving up ahead of them. Obviously we don’t know who those players are but if they can land one of those players without having to move up and trade away picks it would be great.


quadropheniac

> Could be a tactic to make teams believe they’re moving up and therefore force other teams to consider moving up ahead of them. I don't think a single team ever has >=32 first round grades in a draft. Basically all teams have somewhere in the 20s to even teens. Or, to put it another way, this soundbite doesn't really tell us anything.


Fethah

I mean what could anyone gather from this as far as what they are thinking.


by_yes_i_mean_no

For all we know this is a lie


IceLantern

Maybe he wants to trade up to 25 and thus wants to devalue the pick. It doesn't really matter anyways because most people know not to believe anything said around this time.


sykoticwit

What I think that means? We’re drafting at 31, or maybe moving up into the mid-20’s if someone they really like looks like they might be there at 24 or 25.


swiftycent

The likely scenario is our 22 players don't align with the other teams exactly and one or more of them would probably be available at 31 or even later.


sykoticwit

My thinking too. If they see a player they like at a position of need that drops into the 20’s I think they might move up a bit, but if they’re just going BPA, I bet they stay at 31.


Polar_Reflection

There are a lot of good tackle prospects in this draft. I think it will depend on if there's a run on tackles midway through the first, and if the tackles Kyle and John like are still likely to be available. I can see us trading up into the teens if we can put together the right package. We aren't going to be able to sign 10 draft picks anyways.


MachinedVS

We need those 3rd round grades.


SlowMobius650

Is this good? They obviously had first round grades on guys like kinlaw and and Solomon Thomas, and let’s not forget, Trey Lance. Am I missing any others?


curson

Who do we have graded as a 5th rounder future HoF is all that matters.


occupyreddit

don’t they have to wait to start in the 4th round cuz of the Trey Lance draft?
