I would love someone to go to another teams forum and propose these trade ideas being floated round this thread. They will laugh you right out the forum.

Fans don't make trades. And fans of good teams always seem to overrate their rosters. Just think back to how confident we were through Cam's prime years.

The Browns should be trying to move up. They just landed Deshaun Watson but their WR corps is basically Amari Cooper and... and well, that's it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They don't have a 1st, would anyone trade out of the top 10 for picks 44 and 78? Our other issue is Falcons and Saints being the two option who might want to trade up and not looking to help us out. I think more than likely the team that actually wants to trade up does to with the Giants leaving us stranded at our position.

I wasn't talking specifically for us. But the NFL has changed. Teams that feel they're in a window to make a SB run with their roster are getting a LOT more aggressive to capitalize on it in recent years.

If we get Jimmy I hope they don’t extend him and just let him finish his contract with us and then kick him to the curb. 
Problem is 49ers know Jimmy may not be ready for training camp and STILL want too much for him. 
I don’t like Darnold but at least with him we would be guaranteed another top 10 pick.

I think the chances the Saints move up to 5 are very high.  Seems inevitable.  Almost certainly for a QB but a slight maybe for OT.  Gotta be QB though IMO.

From most insider podcasts I have heard is that the Saints are looking at the NFC and are in a "win now" mode and prefer to get 2 premier players (tackle, wr most likely) to compete this year.  At least that is the message Loomis has sent to the team.  I doubt they go to 5

Many of us realized at the time just how disastrous that meaningless win was while others celebrated that every win is a good one and relished on the wonderful winning culture it was helping to build.

Well, how 'bout now?

@tecc86, remember this post and celebrating that meaningless win when we're talking draft again in October while Herbert is playing like an MVP candidate.

I'm sure you'll remind us in 10 years about that fateful night in Washington that ruined our franchise

I also didn't give a poo whether we won or lost

Nah, hindsight being 20/20 the franchise was already ruined we just didn't realize it yet. The ruination occurred when Tepper signed the papers.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
