Yeah, we've certainly shown to be shrewd negotiators when Tepper falls in love with something. Oh wait...

I still don’t think this was a bad trade if you just factor the cost to get #1 overall and leave the player taken out of the equation.

The precedent was set when the 49ers dealt up to get Trey Lance.


Both were in hindsight stupid, but the cost was the cost.

oh and the 49ers are actually capable of drafting well outside of the first and have a competent front office

That the next year's first became #1 overall just absolutely tanks the value of the trade in retrospect. We basically traded a fortune just to get to #1 a year earlier.

I’m surprised the Panthers have nearly the same odds as the Bengals. I don’t see any way the FO gives up a first round pick after losing the #1 overall pick just a year ago. There’s just no way. If any team gives up a first round pick, I imagine it would be one of the perennial playoff teams. Just too much value coming up in the next draft with a potentially high end QB class.

It's probably more along the lines of the word being out that we have highly impatient ownership that is eager to make short-sighted, poorly thought out deals in a desperate attempt to win now.

As soon as a deal like that gets done with Morgan at GM I'll be the first to agree with you. Until then it's just tired.

    • We have seen Bryce get outplayed by all manner of QBs, from UDFAs to second round picks.  If we actually scouted any QBs it would not be a difficult task to upgrade from Bryce, you guys act like he is even decent. He is one of the worst starters league wide stop making excuses.   
    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
