Niners are the only recent team to trade up a haul and still survive after the pick didn't work out. It's also just not very common so it's not a real good sample size... -
Not sure how or where, but I think we win at least 6. -
Has any QB taken with the Number 1, acquired by trade, ever killed it? I think the people that are considered generational will never be acquired that way, a team won’t trade. (which makes trading into it more suspect) Okay I looked because I could not remember a QB taken number one where the pick was traded to their team, ever having the career that was envisioned. I thought Vick was the #2 but n o he was the 1st pick. I didn’t look at the price but if he hadn’t fought those dogs he would have been one. Coincidentally, Steve Bartkowski in 1775 and also an Atlanta selection, is the other. I don’t think Goff was a real satisfying selection either but we are talking multiple draft picks and the 1st overall selection is expected be special going into the proposition. What I remember of Bartkowski is he was that really good QB stuck on a crappy team. I think he wopuld be my choice of the three fwiw, to be worth the investment. Maybe not, it was a long time ago. Memory. Since 1967 https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/35429888/nfl-draft-no-1-pick-trade-history-1967-every-top-selection-changed-teams A footnote: Chicago has an opportunity to nail it with a Number 1 acquired by trade, this year. dammit. We’ll see how that goes.
