True. Dallas lost about 80 points.We should have been angling for their 2nd.

True. But according to reports, whether it's spin or not I don't know, is that we still would've taken Terrance Williams. So in that case I'd rather have had the 3rd and a 4th.We should have been angling for their 2nd.

You have to weigh the risk of losing him by trading down into the early 2nd round combined with the loss of an extra year of contract length. One year is not a small amount of time when you're talking about four or five years total.Love the pick. He was going to be the first center drafted anyways, and seeing we moved to 31 he would've gone shortly after if we didn't take him.
It was either him or Schwenke. Now as far as the tackle or guard position that's a different story. We need to sign a tackle and or guard like Winston and Moore to really improve. Will we? Probably not. It's a process, remember?
I mean how would this board have exploded if they had drafted Pugh straight up?
And Dallas got an extra 3rd rounder by comparison. NFL.com has Frederick ranked higher than Pugh or Long who went 19th and 20th, yet Maycock didn't freak about either one of them having a "third round grade" like he did with Frederick who was drafted over 10 picks later.Exactly right. I would have been pretty unhappy about it, personally.
Pugh would've been a huge reach at 18 in my opinion. And yet the Giants did almost exactly that, and you hardly hear a peep about it.
We never seem to be trading from a position of power. The whole NFL, SF included, knew Jerry wanted to trade down and accumulate more picks. Stephen flatout pretty much said it. So instead of being in a place where we can tell SF to go F themselves for not offering enough to move up, we gladly take lesser value in the trade down because we are desperate. I don't mind the trade down, but we could have done better.True. Dallas lost about 80 points.
The 2nd and 3rd rounds were worth more relative to the late 1st round this year creating a poor market for trading down from the late 1st, but Dallas still managed to get jobbed the worst among those teams trading down in that area. The Rams lost only 20-30 net points dropping from 22 to 30 while the Pats stayed chart-equal with Minnesota.
One added difference under the new CBA is that the Pats by dropping out of the first altogether got a shorter contract for their top pick, so there's added incentive to not trade out of the 1st.
