Blue Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Personally, I can't get over the fact that a bunch of people tried to tell me as recently as February that "Justin Fields would be the first overall pick in any other year!" and now he looks to be no better than QB3 or 4 in his own draft class behind guys like Zach Wilson and Trey Lance. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 35 minutes ago, Uncle Buck said: I can see what you're saying, but at the same time, people have to remember that trade negotiations aren't always just a 2-party situation. If the Niners can find two potential suitors for Jimmy G., they can play each one off of the other to drive up his trade value. As valuable as quarterbacks have become these days, I could certainly see that happening. But Jimmy G would also have to play at a pretty high level this year to have significant trade value. Alex Smith was traded to Kanas City for a 2nd round pick and then after two consecutive Pro Bowl seasons was traded to Washington for a 3rd and Fuller. Nick Foles was traded to Chicago for a 4th round pick. Ryan Tannehill was traded to Tennessee for a 4th round pick as well. So unless Jimmy plays very well the 49ers probably won't get a huge haul for him and if he gets hurt/doesn't start they'll probably cut him and lose without getting any return. Especially with guys like Foles, Winston, Newton, Brissett, Mariota, Taylor, Tribusky, and Darnold likely hitting the free agency market next offseason.

In Shanny's system, I think Fields is an absolute stud. If you were to pull him out of that system and put him somewhere else? Say, Denver (just using that as an example bronco fans)? I wouldn't be as bullish on him. I get to view things through the shanny spectrum, which also accounts for why I loathe spending any real capital / assets on running backs lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 If we do want to go 100000 IQ...Shanny has coached Justin Fields before at the QB collective a few years back. I think that it cuts both ways and there's no reason to just assume that it was a good experience between the two, but there is a personal, previous connection. You'll see it pop up on twitter a lot, I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think even Shanahan can turn that into consistent Super Bowl contending play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll just have to wait until he gets his turn to play. He could be a superstar or a total bust. Hard to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cypher Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I sincerely hope it's for Fields, but deep down, I know Lance is coming off the board at 3 and it breaks my heart. Carolina will be stuck with Fields, Mac or Teddy again. HUGE yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
