I think that it is fair to say, that no matter who they pick after giving up that much capital, they will certainly be hoping that he pans out.

Yep. Plenty of examples of jumping up to the top 3 for a QB - and he doesn't pan out.

I think I saw something the other day that out of the last six or seven QBs that were taken after a team traded into the top 3 to get him, only one is still on his original team (for now) - Sam Darnold

If I am the 49ers I would take the Best non qb at 3. I don't know stats, but I think if you look at the past 10 drafts and the first non-qb picked your chance of an elite player skyrockets.

Problem is you don't keep your job trading the farm for non-QBs.
Cerrato would have taken a replacement for our long snapper with the #3 pick.
LOL.

Re: NFL Free Agency Around the League

Watson is probably paying all the accusers to come forward. :-))
He wants out of Houston that bad.
Or you could argue he has to play now to settle all the lawsuits.
LOL.

LOL.
The bigger problem is the best player is an OT and they just signed TW to a major new contract. So now they are either taking the 3rd Qb (assuming 1 and 2 are qbs) or at best the 2nd best non-qb player.

Dumb trade no matter who they take.

Maybe ... but you aren't saving a ton of draft capital in a trade to move to just 6. You're still giving up a butt load of picks. So why risk just going to #6? You may as well go all the way to 3, and dare one of the top 2 picks to draft Jones.


This could all be smoke.

But the way Shanahan has talked after pulling off the trade, and the similarities between Jones and Matt Ryan and Kirk Cousins ... it certainly "fits".

It's not a gamble I would make.

But I'm not sold on any of these QB's after Trevor Lawrence. (I'm also a benefits specialist. So what da fuq do I know? haha).

Re: NFL Free Agency Around the League

I'd be floored if the 49ers gave up what they did for Mac Jones.
