Best case scenario, Jets take Wilson, 49ers trade us the 3rd for Teddy and a 1st, 3rd, next yrs 1st or whatever, we snatch up Fields before ATL...

that's not gonna happen 

[Mother Grabber]

that would essplain why we were all in on the watson train. maybe this year will be about filling out the roster, and we go after a QB next year.

Why would the 49ers trade back down after spending all that draft capital to trade up ? They're just as locked onto that pick as the Jags are at #1 at this point.

No one seems to definitively know what the Jets will do but it's a extremely high probability they pick a new QB to go with their new regime.  Trading up to two might be just as improbable as trading up to one if the Jets are locked on to a QB. 

History seems to indicate there's usually at least one highly touted QB that falls in the draft, but that may not be the case this year .   I think it highly depends on what Atlanta does. If they don't pick a QB that will open the floodgates for trades for other teams wanting to leap us because they know the Panthers are QB starved. 

The most realistic senario is the Panthers can't or won't be willing to trade a haul of picks to their division rival falcons to trade up for the 4th best QB. Fiterer will probably sit at 8 and go BPA or trade down . Trading down could land a wealth of picks because a early run on QBs will push top 5 overall players down to 8.

We could actually trade down twice, still have a 1st rounder and have a shitton of 2nd rounders. Which would be perfect for rebulding the oline and secondary.  Take a flier on a QB later, and you're set.

I just don’t see a lot to be excited for next year if we don’t get a QB. 
Parsons, Pitts and that CB whose name I forget may be great players but won’t inject excitement like a new QB would.

We’ll have to trade up next year as well. Unless the wheels fall off and we go 2-14.  The QB prospects pale in comparison to the potential this years group has. Which is why what has happened is such a disappointment. 
Once again the Panthers are on the outside looking in.

What Atlanta does will dictate what we do

[Panthers Rhule]

Actually, that statement is probably true. I could understand that. Doesn't mean they won't draft someone else but it could still be a true statement. I mean, it looks like the 49ers aren't so big on Fields and probably Lance neither. So who knows how each team evaluates them.

We are still 2-3 years away from being a contender every year

There's more truth in this than folks want to admit, but it is the case here and beyond.
