No and that is saying something. After the way Tepper handled Reich, he was the best we could get.

Sign Marcus Mariota as FA and trade for Will Levis (6th or later). Cut Bryce and Andy.

I know they are backups but our starters should be the backups. Arvell Reese please.

Yes exactly. The Dalton deal looks worse every day.

Good thing we gave Andy Dalton a new contract.

I think we finish 7-10 and will pick after Mendoza, Moore, and Simpson are off the board.

I really like Purdue but Mac Jones has shown it is more of the coach/system than the qb and Purdy makes more than Herbert, Jackson, Hurts, Stafford, etc.

49ers always seem to make questionable decisions and they never really seem to pay the price. Lance, Purdy, Aiyuk all seem like wastes of draft capital and cap space.

They still have Chris Godwin, Tev Johnson, and Egbuka. They could also get Evans and Irving back for the regular season finish. I'm thinking Baker doesn't miss too many games. Sorry, not seeing us winning the division.

I think we see some regression to the mean, and we end up picking at no. 11. Arvell Reese LB OSU come on down. He is moving into the top ten on a lot of mocks which is surprising for an off ball linebacker so we may not even be around (I think three qb's go in front of us though). We could take and edge (Davide Bailey TTU) or a DT (Peter Woods CU), but I don't want to see us reach for the injured CB out of Tennessee (Jermod McCoy).

Icky got beat quick a couple of times and then Zavala was just whiffing on guys running down hill. Dalton would not have survived that game.

This guy is great. Loved the Packers one too. Keep them coming. Thanks.

Don't we have until May 1, 2026 to exercise the fifth year option for Bryce? If so, i think we take a wait and see approach since next year is still a bargain for us. It would be so stupid to give BY an extension. He will be here in '26 though.

As things now stand (picking 10-17...that's right, we are moving back in the draft right now from 16 to 17), we would probably have to take the 4th best edge rusher (Bailey Texas Tech) in the draft if we went that route.

Yes.  

Bryce having a great game. 22/29 302 2 tds 0 ints

I saw a mock recently with Reese no. 1. That is an insane prediction for ILB but he seems to be moving up the boards.

By whom? The Cardinals? And it is when not if. I think Kyler would be step up over Bryce but that is a figurative step since they are both too short. The difference is we don't have to pay Bryce 46M a year. How much of that would Arizona cover anyway?

His contract was for 2M. Sign him up.

Bryce would be a better fit for Shanahan's offense, but they would never trade a qb they know can run their system for one who might be able to run their system. We would have to give us too much to even the scales, and I hope we don't do that.

Penix sucks too but they will still win easily. Coons 34 Panthers 13. At some point the D will grow tired of having to keep teams under 10.

I'm ok with Tet over Warren. Warren has looked great but he doesn't have to play with Bryce.

I was in on Mac Jones after his first start for the 49ers, but upon some reflection and early replies from this board caused me to think there are some problems: 1. he doesn't have a strong arm either but can put some zip on short accurate passes; we would have the same problem with him as we do with Bryce in not being able to stretch the field vertically; 2. he's under contract next year so we would have to give up some draft capital to get him; and 3. is Mac actually a good qb now or is he a product of Kyle Shanahan and his offensive scheme (neither of which will be in Carolina next year)?

Agree. It was an extremely expensive move down to #1.
