00:00 Look combines next week
00:02 Give me the positional needs on the Niners like which positions are the most important
00:06 For fans and front office to be zeroing in on in this underwear Olympics
00:12 Marco you go first. I feel like you got something to say
00:15 They should definitely go get a head coach defensive coordinator
00:19 Not not serious. Oh cynical over the last few years. I love it. You're not seriousness
00:26 The the main positional need is right tackle the way the combine everyone's there like the draft should fall
00:33 Right tackle should be there off of the tackle office alignment is deep in this class. I had back in November
00:39 I had nine first round draft grades on offense alignment. It's still that that way for me
00:43 So for me, I definitely think offensive tackle is the key or a guard if they feel like a guard is better center
00:50 With Jackson powers there for me. I definitely think office align
00:54 You can't go to the Super Bowl get your ass whooped
00:56 Because your office line sucks and then not expect to draft an office lineman
01:00 Like it's pretty bad when that's the key for the last few years you lose because of your offensive line
01:05 So definitely I think office lines high up there
01:09 I think address your opposite of Nick Bosa's up there as well if you can't get home with the front four
01:13 That's a big issue. So I think offensive tackle and address is my second one, but if I had to give a third one
01:19 Definitely would be probably
01:23 Corner, but I'm not too worried on corner
01:25 I think you could replace a nickel and then just move demo outside and have a B Thomas not play
01:31 I guess it's not that hard to not have a me Thomas play if you would have had Samuel Womack in the slot
01:35 Don't play him like it's not that hard like so I think that's it's an easier fix in
01:41 Then everyone truly thinks to be honest with you
01:43 Wrong I
01:48 Think what Marco said is pretty accurate, you know, you talk about this this class the Niners the last few seasons
01:54 They've had an excuse in the draft not going for offensive linemen
01:58 You can say it's because they don't like to play them when they're younger
02:01 You know, they prefer more veteran options or whether it was they had a third round pick last year
02:05 You don't want a third round tackle starting
02:07 Like Marco said there might be nine to ten offensive linemen in this class that are first rounders that have first round grades
02:13 They're not all gonna go in the first round
02:14 Which means talent should be there at 31 that could potentially start on day one
02:19 And so I think I'm not saying you go into it saying I'm going to draft a tackle at 31
02:24 I think this is the best class for BPA in the Niners sake but there's
02:27 BPA very well could be one of the most premier positions in football at 31
02:32 Elsewhere the one other position I want to add to the list you talk about edge rusher
02:36 You can talk about defensive line as a whole maybe getting some more depth that defensive tackle if you can't bring other guys back
02:41 but I want to talk about receiver because
02:44 I mean you're here in Brandon IU trade rumors. I don't know how much I buy them but regardless in
02:49 2025 one year from now the Niners like to project you're probably gonna have to make a decision and
02:55 You might even lose your slot guy in Juwan Jennings. You need insurance
02:58 They're the guys you've picked up before haven't been that you know haven't been that impressive
03:02 I would look to target receivers well within the first four rounds. I like that
03:07 I'm a thought some wild cards you guys hit the big ones
03:10 I've been doing a little series for
03:13 Si dot-com all 49ers just like taking stock of each position and I'll just go through each player each position and at the end
03:18 I asked myself is there are there is there arrow trending up or down? I did the tight ends this morning
03:23 I felt like every single tight end on their team is stocked down every single one
03:27 No offense to George Kittle cuz he's all pro but I can't say he's getting better at this point in his career and then every
03:33 Single other tight end on the team is replaceable. Sorry Ross Dwelly
03:36 But they need a tight end. They've needed a tight end for years
03:41 I understand why they drafted cam lots who but I don't think he's the one so they may need to take another
03:46 stab at that position kind of like when they took trailer sermon and then took tired Davis price and then
03:52 That didn't work out either. They should take a good tight end
03:55 and then
03:56 Who the TV on Sanders out of Texas? That'd be a perfect at 31
04:00 Take him there and then go get off in the tackle or whatever. You need positional value and at 60
04:06 What are the 63 or whatever? I?
04:09 mean, especially if you're talking about like potentially cutting Kyle you check which
04:13 I'm not against I mean seven point five million dollars against the cap could do what at this point catch point Kyle
04:21 Come on, you know you shit. Yeah, I'm sorry. I just feel like it's an
04:25 Good player. He's 33. They don't use them much anymore. He's too expensive
04:29 Yeah, if they cut him get another tight end another reason to get a tight end also
04:36 Quarterback not not because of Brock but because I feel like Brandon Allen Sam Donald deuces and good luck, but the
04:44 Brian greasy and Steve Sloak have drafted one quarterback. It was Brock Purdy
04:48 I don't know if it was just them
04:50 But I'd like to see if they what they could do with the second shot. They seem like they know what they're looking for
04:54 Curious to see if they drafts quarterback this year. Although everyone's looking for the next block pretty now, right didn't
04:59 All of a sudden there was an article that came out on that
05:03 But talk about quarterback about tight end. I think those two positions it's intriguing because in free agency
05:09 They're starting to become a little premium in terms of backup quarterbacks backup tight ends
05:13 You're paying six seven million dollars draft might be the place. You know you and they go get Jake Browning
05:18 Hey, man, he's coming back with a vengeance. He's a baller. You're gonna say Marco
05:24 I said if you think about it's funny because the s2 score for Brock Purdy was elite like he was like everyone like that's why
05:31 The Niners kind of drafted him because of those scores and then see this shot comes out and it's like terrible
05:35 But he does great like which is funny. So it's gonna be definitely if you follow in the metrics
05:40 I mean, you're gonna take a quarterback take someone with upside man
05:43 Like don't go like, you know, let's find a quarterback that we could possibly wouldn't go get upside
05:49 That's what I'm less what I'm here for upside. Well with the Niners though
05:52 They're not gonna be taking a quarterback in the top 10 or the first three rounds
05:56 It'd be interesting to see if they take another guy at all or sign him after as an undrafted free agent
06:02 What trait would he be like another Brock Purdy type? It seems like you'd look for that, right? I mean you started this trend
06:08 No, no, can you just be able to throw the ball in the rain?
06:12 That's the one thing about Brock Purdy that bugs me man. Like you can't throw the ball when it's a little bit wet. That's a
06:17 problem in Northern, California
06:20 but
06:21 Maybe we can get him some gloves or you can learn to throw with gloves. That's
06:25 Let's not
06:26 It's not bad on Brock Purdy
06:28 Huh, he's gonna be like Teddy to goes over there man
06:32 It's not gonna happen like don't I honestly if you truly can't grip the ball with with your bare hands
06:38 it means you have two small hands playing in the NFL at quarterback and that's a big issue because I think it's if you look
06:44 At the teams that are gonna be in the playoffs in the NFC for the long for long future, right?
06:48 Most likely the Green Bay is one of those
06:50 So you might be on the road going to Green Bay a lot of this a lot of your time in the NFL if you're brought
06:55 Pretty can you play in that kind of Rohan? What's the weather like when during the playoffs out there? You're obviously in Wisconsin
07:01 It's freezing cold, right? Yeah, you can't get the ball there and you can grip it now
07:06 Like it's an issue in my opinion, but I think he played great. I mean, you can't really say like he didn't play good
07:11 He really played great
07:12 but I think quarterback to is a definitely a big position unless Kyle decides to go with the
07:17 Ladies quarterback to overthrow the football for the 49ers in rescience and Arnold
07:21 You
