49ersfan Posted January 18, 2023 Author Share Posted January 18, 2023 I'm wary of Lamar ending 2 straight seasons injured. My concern as a GM would be; is his body breaking down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the thing is, that gives him even more reason to push for a fully guaranteed deal, if we are being honest.

I don't get why people don't just draft Brock Purdys in the 7th round all the time and stop this stuff 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Browns missed/missed/missed for like 30 years. The 49ers trade a stupid amount of draft ammunition to trade up for Lantz, who looks like he could very well be a major bust (a bit too early, but still), and then they potentially hit a homerun on "Mr. Irrelevant". Kinda an RGIII and Kirk Cousins vibe from a few years ago, not that I'd call Cousins a homerun, but he's a solid NFL starter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get what's so difficult about hiring a Kyle Shanahan and then finding a Christian McCaffrey, drafting a George kittle in the fifth round, finding a deebo Samuel and Brandon aiyuk, snagging an Elijah Mitchell in round six and jujuan Jennings in round 7 and then just grabbing a brock Purdy.

It's not that hard, people I think it's more scheme than players, but that's just me. Sure, having those guys doesn't hurt though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't under any circumstance give him a deal thats guaranteed past 2 or 3 years. There's no way he's gonna stay healthy in his 30s.

Mox Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 2 hours ago, dll2000 said: I don't think the market for Lamar is nearly as high as many here are saying; a trade comparable to Watson's. I like QBs who can run, but I have never been a huge believer in Lamar's accuracy so I would pass personally (no pun intended). I will say I never thought Jamal Adams would fetch nearly two 1s and a 3 from Seattle and was arguing against that high of a return right before it actually happened. So who knows, I have been wrong before. An excited team could offer moon and I could be 100% wrong and Baltimore could get a Watson type trade (if they wanted to trade him). Someone will absolutely pay top dollar/compensation for Lamar. There is no doubt about that. I'm saying I wouldn't want to be the one doing it.

BayRaider Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Jets are currently the heavy betting favorite. Ravens second, Raiders third. If the Jets land Lamar, the AFCE is easily the best division in the NFL…. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only find it on bookies.com, but the article says no one is accepting bets on those odds? https://bookies.com/nfl/picks/lamar-jackson-next-team-odds Everywhere else I see odds that do not include Ravens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that in order for the Jets to land Lamar they have to give up significant draft capital + at least one good young player (most likely Garrett Wilson or Sauce Gardner). Are they still AFCE favorites after doing that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
