But they tend to target a few specific guys. And if they want to go Sam LaPorta + DTR + developmental corner, safety, and tackle with relatively premium picks, they are going to need more of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamq Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) Man I am honestly not happy at all to lose Lance.. I have been convinced it was coming since the Darnold signing though.. I think he is a better player than most, and could see him develop into a top 10 guy with some patience. Houston would be a great landing spot if they can get 2 more quality pass catchers to go with Collins Nobody could have predicted any of these wild circumstances back when they made the trade up to 3 but man it really feels like they totally whiffed it, just like with missing out on Watson/Mahomes and the other 1st round blunders. If Fields were the pick, he probably would have gotten injured like the rest of 'em anyways 😕 Edited April 19, 2023 by adamq 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its harder to make that move post 6/1 just because the other teams are probably set at their QB room which kills some action in the market and gives him a lot less time to get acclimated. But we will see. I'm still not sure that this is something that happens. I don't know if anyone parts with what it will take. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted April 19, 2023 Author Share Posted April 19, 2023 I think the last report about "taking trade calls" that was made about the 49ers was for Jeff Wilson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustrianNiner Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 I don't think a trade will happen simply because I don't think anyone will have an offer that blows the 49ers away. It's very weird, however, that they declared him a starter last year, he had a monsoon game and a couple of drives before he got hurt and now they don't mind trading him? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
49erurtaza Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Seems to me they are saying basically blow us with an offer we can't refuse and we will trade Trey. If not we will keep him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle thinks taking Trey was a massive mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would just rework someone's deal to create more space. If someone makes an offer for Lance that they want, his contract won't stand in the way. Ultimately I just don't think that anyone makes that kind of offer. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4L Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 This is the first time I think it is actually more likely that Trey gets traded than otherwise. Ian Rapoport is a known mouthpiece for this regime. It's real. This is happening. They have done too much work on QBs in this draft for me to think otherwise at this point. Personally, I would just keep him for one more year, but I understand why it makes sense to trade him this year. If we trade Lance this offseason, that trade up has to be one of the worst trades in nfl history, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing us a bust, a average and maybe one good player. The first round picks really have been quite underwhelming with this regime which makes the succes they have had even crazier since the core isn't just FA signings but mostly drafted players. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
