Everyone who knew he wouldn't get drafted feel free to tip your cap.
I knew he would not get a fair shake since his 40 would suck. It is too bad. He would do fine if someone was willing to give him regular workload.

This is a strange flex, dude. I remember you saying he wouldn't get a shot, and I and other TRUE Mizzou fans said he would. Guess what? He'll get his shot.
Why don't you save your "bragging" for the beginning of the NFL season when the 53 man rosters are set. Posts like this make me question some of y'alls fanhood.

I think Schrader not being drafted was a blessing in disguise for him.
He could have been "drafted" by an incompetent organization like the Jets or Panthers and been a misfit to scheme. Instead as a UDFA he was free to chose his own landing spot and he couldn't have picked a better one than the 49ers. Their blocking scheme is a perfect fit for Schrader. In fact, I've watched a shite ton of 49ers football since the Rams moved and more than once I marveled at how much Cody's runs resemble Christian McCaffery and now he gets to be mentored under him.
I've also been surprised how many of the San Francisco reporters have singled him out as someone who could buck the odds and make their 53 man roster. He's not as well kept a secret as I thought he might be. I can't remember which reporter said it, but one commented they can't imagine how (if the same Schrader shows up) the head coach will agree to cut him. That's the Schrader we know.
I'm not prepared to go that far but have no doubt, at worst, he'll make their practice squad this year with a great chance to stick on their active roster in 2025. We all know he won't be outworked, so all that's left is the opportunity and this one is solid gold for him. Be glad, 98. I think he's found his new home.

It was a bad draft for RB’s. Since 1968 or the last 57 drafts there has only been 2 years that a RB wasn’t picked in the 1st RD. Teams can find cheap serviceable FA RB’s and pickup RB’s on cheap rookie contracts lower in the draft. Austin Ekler and Raheem Mostert are starting UDFA’s. Last year Mostert led the league in TD’s and was on the AFC Pro Bowl team.
First 4 RB’s drafted this year
2nd RD #46 Jonathan Brooks
3rd RD #66 Trey Benson
3rd RD #88 MarShawn Lynch
4th RD #120 Jaylen Wright
RB Isaiah Davis from Joplin, Mo was drafted in the 5th RD by the Jets.
Brooks is a risky pick at #46. In 3 years at Texas he only had 238 rushing attempts and is coming off a ACL surgery. Some mock drafts didn’t have him in the top 5 RB’s. Carolina should have waited until 52 or 65 instead of trading up.

Drafts can be weird. Cam Little out of Arkansas was knocking out 50 yard FGs and he went in the 7th round.
