It is apparent that we did not have one or two players that we were targeting at the bottom of the first. There's two OT's that are rated highly as well as several defensive backs, including the two guys from UW, that are still on the board. And Obi, I wouldn't be too worried about giving the Niners what they wanted, at least not in the short term. They still don't have a quarterback, so don't expect them to be relevant for at least several more years.
We're not done trading picks, either. Even though we acquired 3 more picks, they didn't address the big gap we had at the end of the 3rd and end of the 6th except to shrink it a tiny bit and add another log to the jam. No way we hold onto 4 picks from between #90 and #111. My guess is that we use one of those picks to move up in the late 2nd and one to get into the late 4th or 5th rounds.
One thing that we did find out for sure yesterday is that we won't be trading Richard Sherman for a 2017 first round pick. If Sherman does come back, it's going to be almost as big of a story as if he had been traded as it's going to be a bit of a shotgun marriage as both parties clearly want a divorce.
Even though yesterday was a bit frustrating as we didn't get to celebrate any new Hawk players, there was some drama to it, which attests to just how boring offseasons can be.

Also, if we trade the 2 comp picks in the 3rd the draft capital would be another 2nd.
We could potentially get Kevin King and Obi.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That would be cloud 9 territory for me.

Lamp is a guard. How many guards do we want? Odhiambo was taken in the 3rd last year, Glow will benefit from a year in the trenches but 39 sacks came off the EDGE last year out of 48 allowed !!!!!!!!!!!!

Going on the cheap will not cut it in this league
What a disaster for you fans
