It's April 23rd, welcome to California News Today, powered by AI. The San Francisco 49ers have a rocky history with NFL Drafts, rarely nailing them right. But this year could flip the script if they played Day 3 smart and dodge three big traps that could tank their hull. Offensive tackles top the avoid list because their premium starters, you snag early, usually in the first couple rounds. Day 3 guys rarely pan out as anchors like Trin Williams, so save those fourth round picks for guards or centers instead. Their track record with wide receivers on late days is straight trash. Outside a late gym like Juan Jennings, they burn picks and bail quick on. Mistakes or injuries, leaving those players as special teamers at best. Quarterback scream worst idea ever here, with Brock Party locked in, Mac Jones around another year, and other options like Curtis Rourke. This QB class is weak anyway, so I gamble when any Lyman beats that reach. Quick to needs, like the lines or other spots, and they might finally craft a draft that

sticks, building real depth without the usual bust.
