Trey Lance QB NDSU

I've said that from day 1, it was Wilson, then Lance, then Fields, then Jones. I recognize the gamble here. But with Jimmy and our team, we offer a start condition like Big Ben got in Pittsburgh. You don't have to put too much on his shoulders, but his size and athleticism can make up for some of that learning curve.

"He's not going to be ready to play. He has to get in early, stay late and take a ton of notes just so he can learn the NFL position."

"He is the most instinctual quarterback in this draft. I watched him and thought, 'There's no way he's only played 17 games as a starter.'"

"The stuff he does in the pocket is so unique, a Dan Marino-type guy. Either everything comes so naturally for him or he has the best coach in college football."

"He feels traffic from either side. He has a knack for stepping up, sliding left, sliding right. He doesn't raise it or drop it."

"He's so young physically and mentally at the position. But his upside is tremendous."

"He's 6-4. He'll be 240-245 when he grows into his body."

"When all is said and done, he can be as good or better than (Trevor) Lawrence. He's going to be a big, physical quarterback like Ben Roethlisberger."

"He's more of a thrower than a passer. He's like a pitcher who's only throwing 95 mph fastballs."

"What they (the 49ers) should do is take Trey Lance because of the upside. He has the kind of things you want to work with."

"He's developmental. It's going to take some time to get him ready."

"He hasn't played a ton of football, but he is a quarterback. He knows how to play the position. He could be the guy."

All of this.... I'm ok with Fields because he intrigues me too. I'd be disappointed with Jones (and ecstatic with Wilson). But the QB that makes the most sense for us is Fields.

I know he's fallen out of favor here due to Fields, but I love this guy as a young man.



And don't act like that doesn't matter. Leadership matters and emotional stability matters. Mac Jones might piss some people off. Players will bleed for Trey Lance.

Yeah, he's an impressive young man. If Kyle wants to hitch his wagon to him I'd get on board.

I don't see how Shanahan could see both Fields and Lance throw the ball in person and then turn around and draft Mac the weak-armed giggling fatty. It defies all of the rules of reality that the universe has spent the last 14 billion years establishing.

You just sound ignorant saying things like "weak armed fatty" so I can see how that would blow your mind. Do you though
