I mean they're taking a risk, but it's for a qb with the youth and traits they were looking for and they didn't even part ways with a first round pick to get it. You can make the argument for trading up for a young qb but the options were probably worse there and the same age QB as Sam. The SF trade forced them into a corner, they decided to take a route that let them keep all their draft picks this year. I don't hate it. 

In a deal like this, you will always overpay

in essence we gave up next yrs 2nd

bet fitts figures out something to get it back

now we get one of the best OL in the draft instead of the 5th best QB

this is a good deal for us

I understand if people have David Carr ptsd though, that looked promising and was a mess

Also, the Bears cut their best corner and made Andy Dalton tgeir starter, they're not making good decisions currently 

That CB went form 14 million to 9.5 million on the open market. They thought 14 was too much and it was. They needed about 5 million to sign Ifedi too. Not going to defend Dalton as starter thats nearly as bad as trading 3 picks for Sam Darnold..

Actually it's been reported multiple teams were interested at one point when the price was too high and they were asking for a 1st or second. After free agency, after the 49ers trade, and after andy dalton there just wasn't any suitors left besides us. 

 

Lol we gave them a second and added to it..

You mean teddy severely under-achieving with a top 5 offense in the league?

Or did you mean Sam Darnold when he played for a team that everyone makes fun of?

I meant their actual performance and registered  production and not whatever weirdo metric you’re using

Oh okay so you're basically saying you're incapable of complex thinking and haven't put together all the variables. Could of just said so. Gotcha

Ifedi isn't a good player though

I get the pessimism, seems a lot like David Carr, but they felt backed into a corner and are taking a gamble. The compensation ain't as bad as yall are making it out to be imo

    • I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!
    • Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce. 
    • Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
