Looking forward to seeing some guys separate themselves clearly on a round-to-round basis. Went with PFF for the early round selections this time. Not a subscriber on there so I cannot do a full run.

First run:
Mason Graham - DT - 5th overall out of Michigan
Wyatt Milum - LT - 37th overall out of West Virginia
Tacario Davis - CB - 69th overall out of Arizona
Tre Harris - WR - 90th overall out of Ole Miss

Second run, with Pro Football Network (Full draft, with trades):
Swapped the fourth pick with the 49ers for picks 17, 48 and their 2nd and 3rd RD picks in 2026 (I didn't get a shot at Travis Hunter, CLE took him, otherwise I probably stay)

Will Campbell - LT - 17th overall out of LSU
Kenneth Grant - DT - 35th overall out of Michigan
Rod Moore - S - 48th overall out of Michigan
Sebastian Castro - S - 72nd overall out of Iowa
Xavier Restrepo - WR - 90th overall out of Miami
Luke Kandra - OG - 108th overall out of Cincinnati
Gabe Jacas - EDGE - 127th overall out of Illinois
Raheim Sanders - RB - 144th overall out of South Carolina
Kolbey Taylor - CB - 181st overall out of Vanderbilt
Jake Slaughter - OC - 219th overall out of Florida
Clay Webb - OG - 249th overall out of Jacksonville State

Love the Restrepo and Slaughter picks.  I don't think Slaugter makes it that late but if he did it would be a steal.  Restrepo is one of the best WRs in the draft imo and broke all of Miami recieving records.  As far as Safety, I think it's a bit of a sleeper for the Safety position.  

I'd really like to get Xavier Watts if he makes it to our 2nd round pick.  If we could get either Hunter or Johnson and add Watts our weak secondary could go from a weakness to a strength like the Eagles did with the additions of DeJean and Mitchell.  They had the worst secondary last year and now one of the best.  
Watts has 10 picks since last year with still a few more games to play.  He was a unanimous All Americican last year and will likely be one again this year.  Notre Damn is also of of the best schools to get a safety from with how many great one they have produced.  I hope Watts can run under a 4.5 to show he has the great speed at the position.

I like Watts at Safety. Had the chance to pick him in RD2 on PFF. Opted for the LT that graded out higher because I just don't know what the long term plans are going to be. We've traded Cam, we might lose Walker to free agency. We'll probably move Harrison to LT but then that just leaves a hole again at RT or a major leap of faith having to be taken in Javon Foster going into year two already.

Watts is a good option though. Certainly has that splash play element to his game that we need defensively.
