If they can't trade down, Travon Walker shouldn't be the pick. I don't have faith in our coaching staff to develop "raw athletes" Chaisson is exhibit A that we shouldn't take a project at #1 overall. I think Hutch or Thibs should be the pick, and I'd even take Karlaftis over Walker if they insist on going Pass Rusher.

I get the vibe watching this that there is no consensus at what to do at #1. IMHO this negates the advantage of having the first overall pick, we should have had this settled when the calander flipped from March to April and began projecting what to do with our 2nd rounder and the rest of the picks to construct the roster. Having the first pick gives you so much flexibility bc you know you're guaranteed to get who you want to start things off, and it feels like we're squandering that with Baalke thinking he's the smartest guy in the room.
