Actually, i'm practically always a koolaid drinker on draft night. Not this time, although i think the fact that davis and ross went off the board was the driver of the trade.
Yep. Shocking that they only got a very late 3rd plus a discounted first (from a good team too) for 17 spots. Sf got more Chi than we got factoring in draft slots, discounts, and expected records next season. Oh well.

One NFL GM said Christian McCaffrey "had the best combine workout I've seen. Ever." It's one reason McCaffrey likely to go in top 10.
agreed. It would have to be more than a first next year, which in draft trade calculus equals a late second because you discount such picks by a round by year out.
end of the season matters more with regard to predictions re next season. He was fully integrated into the offense in the last part of the season. He and Taylor were clicking.
LOL
Even more importantly, he had 15 receptions on 17 targets along with 3 TDs in his final two games with Taylor last season. And on one of those non-catches, it was blatant interference by Miami against him in the end zone that wasn't called.
