Won't be surprised if we find out they discussed options with him and he chose the 49ers.

I agree. This was a back of house deal that was most likely instigated by CMC. 
 

many people will disagree, but getting that many picks for a single player is a solid haul. CMC is awesome but what we got in return for him is equally awesome. Especially with the direction the NFL is going away from single superstars to skill set depth.

There were rumors and various levels of speculation about the Rams, Eagles, Bills, and Chiefs. If this is the best deal on the table, all I can read into is that it means no one was offering a 1st.

Yep, gotta think this was the strongest deal on the table by a considerable margin. I'm sure we would've preferred to trade him out of the conference and everyone we were talking to was offered an opportunity to beat the offer.

First would have obviously been nice but not sure how realistic it is to get one for a running back. Even one of the better ones. The haul we got could have been worse. Not to mention the number one pick is all but guaranteed as of tonight. 

A late 1st rounder didn't seem that unrealistic to me to an elite RB that can also double as an elite WR. Getting a late 2nd rounder, 3rd rounder, and 4th rounder is just head scratching... If that's the best offer we could get, might as well keep him and see if any better offers come in the offseason.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?

      If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
