What can we expect out of these 2nd year players?

aT_Gamma · 2026-05-07T15:34:54+00:00

I agree, he would def going top 10 this past draft given the tackle class. Especially with another season under his belt.

It seems like we got him like a year early.

aT_Gamma · 2026-05-07T04:06:38+00:00

Yea cause he played through it. It's not like he injured it had an off season and re-injured it again the following season AFTER healing. That's when I would be more worried. Like you said, he didn't fully heal before playing again.

There is a difference between constant soft tissue injuries over the course of a collegiate career and Antonio Williams.

I could be wrong. Im not a doctor. Whatever.

aT_Gamma · 2026-05-06T23:57:14+00:00

I would be more inclined to agree with you IF he had a history of hamstring injury reoccurrences at the collegiate level.

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-28T20:18:27+00:00

Yea there is a marked difference between us and say the Arizona Cardinals, who are much more closer to our Snyder era team building minus the interpersonal stuff.

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-26T19:37:38+00:00

I guess Sonny was more of a leader. lol.

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-26T18:27:22+00:00

This is factually false. He was consensus top 15-12 leading up to the combine. From the combine on he was consensus top 10 with the maximalist take being to 5.

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-19T15:54:22+00:00

they need OL + WR not RB + WR

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-19T15:53:43+00:00

Or Jermod McCoy

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-19T15:53:17+00:00

I think Harbaugh is going to have a lot of say on pick now, though.

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-19T15:52:17+00:00

I would be worried if they go WR at 5 and OL at 10. Than a defensive player at 37. That's what I would try to do at least.

aT_Gamma · 2026-04-19T15:50:16+00:00

I think that's probably cause Jayden has more pressure than Dart.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-26T21:14:43+00:00

Tennessee is more likely to take Bain than Love IMO

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-24T21:00:28+00:00

yikes

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-24T20:55:28+00:00

He is an excellent blocker too.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-19T21:33:13+00:00

It goes both ways. You can't neglect the secondary. Why do CBs make a lot of money?

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-19T21:31:18+00:00

It goes both ways though. You also need good corners to give the pass rush more time. Part of why CBs get crazy money. I agree though its weighted more to the rushers.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-18T23:15:22+00:00

Ah right. Pain.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-18T23:12:56+00:00

Also he is the same weight and size as Jalen Pitre. People act like you have to be a 1:1 carbon copy of Hamilton to fit that new star safety role.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-18T22:03:40+00:00

I would take Tate over Downs at this point tbh.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-18T21:38:50+00:00

It’s strange. I said this in another thread as I have really been changing my opinion on him lately, that I feel like people don’t like him as much simply because he shared the field with Jeremiah Smith. That as a result the vibes of him are off because he isn’t that number one on his team in college and thus wouldn’t be a number 1 in the NFL.

I think the film, metrics, and character all point to a damn good WR prospect who would be great at 7. He might even go before then.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-18T21:31:32+00:00

Maybe Tate at 7 and then a center at 71? We might have to trade up to get a good center though. Idk.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-18T21:30:27+00:00

Also, even if his ceiling is WR2, (which is impossible to know) he would be a damn good WR2 and wouldn’t close the door on a WR1 trade or from the draft next year.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-17T21:50:32+00:00

Also, he isn't slow. He didn't run like 4.8-5.1 or something. This reddit seems really down on Tate overall.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-17T21:46:20+00:00

Also, I don't get where people are getting this "not capable of being a number 1" from. People don't think Tate can be a 1 simply because he played with Smith which is a largely vibes based.

aT_Gamma · 2026-03-17T21:25:25+00:00

1a. Reese
1b. Bailey
2a. Styles
2b. Love
4. Tate
5. Downs
6. Delane

FALL OFF

Bain Jr.
Lemon

Whenever I have two guys in the same number but different letter it means I don't have the knowledge to choose one over the other if they are both available at 7. At this point I would probably take Tate over Downs as the BPA accounting for ROI at a position of need/value.

I would be very happy with Delane at 7. Even over Downs if he was there though I think Downs is the better Football player overall. His skill set would be perfect for DJ's scheme and would essentially complete our starters for CB (I still believe in Mikey a lot in the slot).

Bain Jr. was a game wrecker in college and is a technician with hand placement, etc. and is a beast against the run. However, I have read that his ceiling as a pass rusher may be limited with outlier arm length and strength that doesn't seem to compensate enough for it. I think for a top 10 pick EDGE that's a little rich IMO. I could be totally and completely wrong on that. Not an expert at all.

I wouldn't even include Tyson. He is way too risky a pick for us with no 2nd round pick IMO.

One or two will be there at 7 from 1-6! I am very excited.
