I'm not going to fault them for shooting for the moon. He's crazy smart, has all the physical tools, familiar with a more NFL style offense....I Just don't think that he's an overly natural thrower of the football. It's all a guess man, I'm just going with Lance since that's what I've been saying from day one lol. I did think there was a possibility of riding it out with Jimmy/Lance though. If you want a Mahomes move, this is definitely it. My theory just has been that Shanahan loves to micromanage QBs and coach them up the way he wants to...Him and McVay are way more hands on than most coaches and they like to control the QB...Well, what better QB to coach up than one who is as raw as Lance and has as much to learn as Lance? Mac Jones is already polished so maybe he is fine with him but he's not going to change him a whole a lot. That's why I don't buy a move up for him.

J-ALL-DAY Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Oh btw, it was announced yesterday that Lynch/Shanahan would meet with the media on........Monday lol. They obviously knew something was up and didn't want to meet before the trade went down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Also makes sense why they went all in getting the Trent deal done. Some thought maybe the team lets him walk if he asks for too much, but they knew they had to fill every need in free agency to make a move like this one and they didn't want the rookie QB being stuck with a suspect LT. One thing is clear, the team really has shut a lot of the leaks out. You don't hear a peep of any move until the day of the move. Two years in a row. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissooner49er Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I really have a difficult time believing Lance would go in the top 5. I think it was 17 games he has actually started? 19? Yikes. I don't believe it. I could see us taking Fields, if Wilson is gone and they don't like Mac enough. But Lance? Just doesn't jive to me.

Well, More like Jimmy is our guy FOR NOW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge gamble. Big payoff, big risk. I am a fan of experience in my quarterbacks and I can't think of a single player who has as little of it as Lance. Even Cam Newton had years in JUCO. And then to combine with a lack of game experience, he also played on a team that was heavy run based lol. He only threw the ball an average of 18 times a game lol We haven't seen him throw live a single time. We didn't go to his pro day. This whole thing is bonkers and I love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep that's the beauty of it is in the end we just don't know how this QB is gonna turn out in 3-5 years. However with Kyle, I'll take my chances. I've been on the Lance > Fields boat but wouldn't be mad if we took Fields. I wasn't a fan of Allen or Mahomes when they came out and look at them now. So as a Fan, I'll take my chances with Kyle and any QB with Talent... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how that works now that I think about it Come to think of it, I didn't watch much of Mahomes at all haha. So that one is on me but I did go back and watch his college tape and honestly spread offense and all, it was pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
49ersfan Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 After Fowler's report about us being interested in Minshew, & then the Jags signing CJ....this was not the QB trade move i was expecting LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Shanahan/Lynch duo's fate will be decided with this pick. If they bomb on this QB, that would be two epic misses drafting at #3. Eventually that catches up to you. We all know Shanahan was the one behind this trade since it involves an offensive player and we know he can't help himself...But lawd he better hope he hits on this pick. Mac Jones is pretty much a lock to be at least a solid/good QB and one that will be ready from day one. That type of thinking gives credence to Simms thinking it will be Jones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Shanny and Lynch have been kicking themselves for that first draft for years now. One thing I do like about this FO is that they appear to learn from their mistakes. I’m very curious to see what we do with Jimmy moving forward. I’ve been on the bring back Jimmy and sit a high pick behind wagon since during the season last year, so obviously I have no problem with that. His value is so hard to gauge though. If we get good value now we have to take it; who knows if Jimmy plays well, stays healthy, or flat out loses the job to the rookie. Shanny has shown that he doesn’t care when you were drafted or how much money you make, he’s going to play the guy he thinks is better for the job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they gave up all of that draft capital to move up to #3 just to pick Mac Jones, Lynch should be fired right after the pick is annouced. We didn't need to move up to #3 to draft Jones. I just can't see all of THIS for Mac Jones. I just really believe they know the Jets aren't taking Wilson and that's why decided to move all to #3. Now if the Jets trade out of #2, my theory falls flat on its face. But I just don't see any scenario where Jones is the pick. At least I'm praying its not... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
