The 49ers staff is genuinely stunned by the first overall pick, and with both Murray and Bosa available the phone calls would be flying fast and furious with Raiders, Giants, Younameits to cash in this lottery ticket.
Assuming nobody meets our very modest trade demands (two first rounders and some middle filler to be named later), we would have a very real conundrum on our hands. Jimmy G has not proven to be durable as of yet and thanks to our contractual foresight he could be rather easily disposed of after the season, especially if he has a great year which would mean a possible draft pick bonanza next year AND a franchise QB who can shop at Baby Gap....
BUT NOT SO FAST MY FRIEND!

With the second pick of the 2019 NFL Draft the San Francisco 49ers select....Nick Bosa of Ohio Community College State Tech!

In what has become an annual tradition like no other the 49ers invest their primary draft capital in a front line defender, who just so happens to be the top player available in the draft (the whole draft!!!). With Dee Ford, Deforest Buckner and the potential of Solomon Thomas/Arik Armstead, the 49ers have accumulated an intoxicating brew of speed and power up front that could rival for the NFL's best sooner rather than later. After investing in a LB that can run and not do things like "tackle" and missing on Earl Thomas, we will need all the edge pressure we can muster until a young CB emerges opposite Richard Sherman. AND with all but one of these contracts still on rookie scale they will have cap space to maneuver for secondary help and a wide receiver in the coming years if they can't nail those picks in rounds 2 and 3 this year.
Now time to start booking hotel rooms for the Super Bowl....
