49ers Acquire No. 31 Pick From Seahawks

Who says you can’t trade within your division? The 49ers have acquired the No. 31 pick from the Seahawks. With that pick, they will select Alabama linebacker Reuben Foster. The Seahawks will receive pick Nos. 34 and No. 111 in the deal. Reuben Foster (Vertical)

Foster, at one point in time, was viewed as a top ten pick. However, his stock tumbled due to a handful of red flags.

  • Red flag #1: Bad shoulder.
  • Red flag #2: Getting into an argument with a hospital worker at the combine.
  • Red flag #3: Submitting a watered down urine sample at the combine.

Still, he is immensely talented. If he stays on the right track, Foster could prove to be one of the best values in the entire 2017 draft.

Our first mock draft had Foster going to the 49ers within the top ten. It took a little longer, but Foster has landed in San Francisco.
