If tanking is really the goal...

An option that hasn't been considered, if we are truly not concerned about 2020 and want to land Lawrence next year then qb is off the table. We have discussed moving up for Burrow, but what about hitting up the ole ball coach in an attempt to snag Young? It has been report that Washington loves Tua or are at least is considering him. 

That said they probably trying to drum up trade interest but if they are serious I would at least hear them out and consider the price point. Even after that if they do draft Tua or someone else trades up for him I hit up Detroit and see what their asking price is. Chase Young is being far under sold in this draft. And with addison likely walking we dont have a prove 4-3  edge rusher.

Young is probably a more athletic version of the Bosa's before him and after a year or two would probably among the best pass rushers in the NFC. Grabbing him would give us a dominate force for years to come but wouldn't be enough to stop the tank from sinking completely. If the goal is Lawrence for next season it should be quality not quantity we are after this season. 

You dont want get to good to soon, but having a gem of this caliber would be beneficial in the long run... question is what would it cause to get to 2 or 3?

You don't trade up to #2 to take a DE. Only QB's are worth that type of value. No thanks on that.

It's been done for a position of less value. Running backs no less. If The 49ers went from picking second to the super bowl largely on defense off the bosa rookie of the year impact, and made a pro bowl why should you not? It's already known to be the second most important position in football so I dont see your logic. Oh I see you rather trade up for a QB already on injury life support... nevermind.

not sure if serious

https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp  Big difference between 7 and 8. according to the draft table  their pick is worth 2600 ours 1500. one and 2 gets you to 2000 alone. any assortment of next years 2 or some 3rd rounders could easily make up the difference from there. I didnt say it would be cheap. but surely worth a discussion. Yes it would be costly, But what is a top 5 rusher worth for the next 9 or so years? surely worth what we have been getting out of the second and 3rd round.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
