Mega trade watch! 49'ers, Redskins and Cowboys


Doc Holiday

Recommended Posts

Apparently the Redskins are getting ready to make what I would say would be one of the dumbest trades in NFL history,  and considering the recent news in regards to the issues in the Redskins front office I can't say I'm surprised to hear they may try something like this .

 What does this  mean why is this panthers relevant?   This means we could see a huge shake up in the draft  because Kirt Cousins has been tagged the 49ers would have to give up two first round picks for him, would  also mean that the 49ers are looking at Fournette anymore

Crazy if it happens. A lot would change.

Contacted by PFT's Mike Florio, "multiple sources with direct knowledge of the situation scoffed" at NFL Network's report/rumor of a three-way trade sending Tony Romo to Washington, Kirk Cousins to San Francisco, and other compensation to Dallas.

One source called the rumor "conjecture," and Florio says Ian Rapoport effectively "made up" the story. Rapoport also reported Friday that Julio Jones was having foot surgery on Monday, but he isn't. The Cowboys certainly would not want to send Romo to a division rival, and there is no reason for Dallas to be involved in any trade sending Cousins to the 49ers. Florio wrote that Rapoport "gets points for creativity and for filling a slow Friday afternoon with a little intrigue." Put simply, the three-way trade isn't happening and was so unrealistic it almost seemed concocted from an online message board.
 
 The SF-WASH part still has legs. Either way, someone who needs a QB would be picking at #2. Shouldn't change much.

Can't wait to see the aftermath when we pass on Fournette for someone nobody is talking about. 

I want Fournette, but I also recognize that running back is nowhere near a big need on the team as the offensive line right now.

if we dont go Fournette I want us to double dip on the o-line this year. The only pick I'm fully against is the anything for the D-line.  If they want another defense event they should've drafted one last year instead of Butler Who I believe is a wasted pick.

Rapoport  is a legitimate source for NFL news,  and wouldn't be reporting it if there was nothing to it.

Florio is one of Rapoport's biggest rivals  so take that into consideration as well 

  Which scenario makes more sense? Seriously? Why would the Cowboys bail out a division team who just traded their QB and is almost guaranteed to regress, for a late round pick? Rappaport is a click-baiter and has been since his days as a beat writer for Bama.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
