What's your offer to Chicago?

Self-explanatory. We saw both Young and Stroud play big final games. If we want one of them, Chicago's phone is taking calls. What's your offer that convinces them to accept?

There's surely 2 1sts involved. What's the sweetener?

Nothing. I would love for Young or Stroud to fall to us but we've been giving up draft picks for years. Time to build.

No roster is ever perfect. You're always going to have needs and spots you'd like to upgrade.

yeah I know but let's wait on this kind of all in draft move till we closer to a complete roster.  give Wilks a contract and two years to implement HIS plan.

We're not likely to ever be completely there. We'll start every year thinking we're strong at a position, then at the end of the year see it as a weakness due to injuries or players not panning out or free agency. We've had holes basically since 1995 and have spent years plugging them and only twice was that for a QB in the first round. The only teams in recent history that were truly strong at all positions but QB (true "only a QB away") were SF and the Rams...and those teams have largely used their draft picks as trade currency to get there.

2016: St. Louis Rams trade the No. 15 overall pick, two 2016 second-round picks, a 2016 third-round pick, a 2017 first-round pick, and a 2017 third-round pick for the No. 1 pick in 2016 (Jared Goff), and a fourth- and a sixth-round pick in 2016.

In 2012, the Washington [redacted] traded three first-round picks and a second-round pick to the St. Louis Rams to move up from No. 6 to No. 2 to select Robert Griffin III. In 2021, the 49ers traded the No. 12 overall pick, and two future first-round picks to the Miami Dolphins to move up to No. 3 to draft Trey Lance.

I could see it in a year with a Trevor Lawrence or a Andrew Luck or Cam Newton. I will also say it would be better to trade up for Young or Stroud rather than take Anthony Richardson at 9. That's right we are back to 9 now. tankathon

Chicago will be taking a QB at 2. Their QB situation is worse than the Panthers. Justin Fields can’t throw the ball. QBs have to throw the ball. I’ll certainly acknowledge his situation sucks, but Fields is horrendous. Panthers have made plenty of mistakes, but passing on Fields was the right call.

    • New season new teams. Everyone we face has improved their team as well. There's now a full season of tape on Canales's offense and Bryce running it. When they win 7 games I will become a believer. 
    • I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can. 
    • My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.
