Lance would be the most exciting pick in the draft if the 49ers drafted him because of his insane potential with Shanny molding him.
Still, it's a pretty scary pick in my eyes. Shanny and Lynch have job security, so they are positioned to swing for the fences if they wish.

Maybe it's time for shanny to try something else.
It's frustrating watching Josh allen and the Patrick Mahomes types knowing we could have a QB like that. A guy that can make something happen when the play breaks down. Our guys just get sacked or turn it over

What kind of job security would they have if Lance is the pick and it busts? That's a world of hurt.

This is absolutely what I'd be looking at doing. The draft has a ton of recency bias, the fact Lance hasn't played this year will hurt him.
Sure he may be able to pull some back in the off-season, but there are 3 guys who are locks to go above him. I think there's a big chance that he's there.
Absolutely wouldn't be ready to start year 1 and that also plays into our hands.
I wouldn't trade up for Lance but if he's sitting right there when the 49ers are drafting, he'd be hard to turn down. You draft him, you sit him for a year and you let him immerse himself in the NFL environment, learn the offense and absorb as much as he can in moving from the FCS to the NFL. Run him out there in some packages in the same way that Harbaugh used Kaepernick as a rookie, stuff that can build his confidence and by Year 2 he should be your starter from Day 1.

A lot more than if they traded a boat load of picks for Wilson or Fields and they busted. But there is no question that the bust factor is a lot bigger for Lance. If Shanny and Lynch think this kid has Pro Bowl potential then he has to be the pick at 12 even with the risk.

Agreed. At this point I'd have no issues whatsoever if they took him @ 12. It just could very well be the turning point for the franchise....in either direction.

The same job security if they decide to continue with Jimmy paying another 27mil and his world of hurt and he misses next season

It's scary how much he reminds me of Kaepernick. Great athlete with a good arm. But he stares down at his targets which translates into disaster in the NFL. Even on his highlights you can see it.

Pretty sure they won lol. But I'm sure Mac Jones could have made every single one of those plays that Allen did
