49ersfan Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/04/27/pfts-one-and-only-mock-draft-of-the-year/ Quote In recent years, we’ve shifted to a one-shot mock draft, with no concern for accuracy and no pride in authorship. Especially since I have now exported the assignment to a seasoned scout who currently is not employed by any team but whose credentials would not be questioned if his name were to be mentioned. I thought about tinkering with his selections. But then I realized that I just don’t care. If any of these picks are right (and the first two are virtually guaranteed to be), the anonymous, unattached scout with no skin in the game gets the credit. For all that are wrong, I’m sure to still get the blame. Again, I don’t care. So here’s our one and only mock draft, with responsibility totally abdicated to someone who knows how to put together a draft board far better than I ever will. Quote 3. 49ers (from Houston via Miami): Justin Fields, quarterback, Ohio State. Yeah, the 49ers reportedly have narrowed their pick to Mac Jones and Trey Lance. Until they make the pick, however, anything can happen. Maybe something surprising will occur, as the 49ers strike the balance between the need for someone who can play now against the reality that the fans will lose their minds if it’s Mac Jones.

That would have helped I mean does it matter if he disclosed what made him change his mind? Guys like King and Breer who are plugged in said they don't know for certainty who they pick but opposing teams think it is Mac. Doubt Biderman is getting inside information over anyone else. Tomorrow afternoon/night will be interesting to say the least…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the thought was Mac v Lance, lis, I don't know how likely it is that we throw Lance out there immediately. So maybe that trade is making them think it's Mac?

King, Rappaport, Schefter, Simms & McShay lately say Jones & possibly Lance. Local media has now completely shifted to Jones Florio is the only major media personality linking us to Fields. He's gotten pretty reliable, but lets see who's right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The potential Jimmy trade they could have known about since Kawakami wrote about that over the weekend and what he was told. That alone doesn't mean it is Mac though.

49erurtaza Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I will say I am excited to see 49ers twitter have the worst meltdown ever when/If we pick Mac. Going to be some good content on there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all know about the Jimmy trade, so they buy in to the narrative that Jones is the only QB that Kyle would trust to start from day 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
