Since everyone has a San Fran rumor tonight:

Quote

A high-ranking NFC personnel man responded to my query Monday morning, and the name he gave me for San Francisco's pick was a surprising one: 

Patrick Mahomes.

This team source said that he heard over the weekend that the 49ers would take Mahomes at No. 2 overall. Some believe Mahomes to be the best quarterback prospect in this class, so if San Francisco shares that opinion, Mahomes would be just as logical of a selection as Trubisky.http://walterfootball.com/nfldraftrumormill

This is what a pre-draft looks like when a draft doesn't have a QB in the top 10

most people on draft twitter have trubisky/mahomes/watson ahead of where they had goff/wentz last year.

i can see 3 qbs going before the panthers even pick at 8.

Ha!  And then there are these 2 tidbits....Throwing darts to see who wants to trade up.  They are desperate!

Comment on these NFL Rumors 

4/24: The 49ers are strongly considering Mitchell Trubisky. - Ian Rapoport, NFL Network
Yesterday, there was a Deshaun Watson rumor for the 49ers. I'd like to point out that all of this could be smoke, with the 49ers, who are desperate to trade down, trying to create interest for the pick. The 49ers would be insanely stupid to take a pedestrian prospect like Trubisky over a better player, as it would echo picking Blaine Gabbert/Blake Bortles over J.J. Watt/Khalil Mack. It would also block San Francisco from ever getting Kirk Cousins, which seems like a strong possibility. -Walter

 
4/23: San Francisco supposedly wants Deshaun Watson. - Greg Gabriel, Pro Football Weekly
Uhh... what? If the 49ers take Watson at No. 2 overall, it'll be one of the worst draft picks in NFL history. No team we've spoken to has Watson in the first round, with some of the smarter front offices even slotting him as a third-round prospect. This would also block the 49ers from landing Kirk Cousins next spring. This makes no sense on so many levels. Then again, the 49ers did hire a TV analyst to be their general manager, so all bets are off. -Walter

      This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY.

      The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.

      I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
