Atlanta trading up. Idk. All I know is that they never reveal who they are drafting and often times they won't bring guys in or go to pro days etc. I'm going off of what I've seen in the past. The guy they talk about the least will be the one they pick. It's just my guess. I think they have found a few ways to make it look like they're not looking in Fields direction. For what reason idk other than the fact they don't like people linking them to their guy.

Then the 49ers take Wilson who is pretty well suited for their offense. I don't buy this smokescreen stuff one bit. Why should the 49ers be terrified of Atlanta trading up? Why would the Jets trade down and risk missing out on the QB that is highest on their draft board?

I'm on the Justin Fields train now. This has to be the pick. Worthy of the #3 pick. So much 49er coverage since the trade lmao... I'm loving it.

Exactly. I think smokescreen is being misinterpreted by some as the media/coaches/gms etc. guessing

Fields is definitely more talented. But Shanahan offense is difficult to learn even for veterans and there's a lot more to learn to transition from college to the NFL. Mahomes, Rodgers, Steve Young, Big Ben and others began their careers on the bench. Jimmy is the perfect bridge QB, a guy you can win any game if healthy. If dude goes down again, no more CJ or Mullens s**tshow, it's the rookie time.
Tua would hav benefited to stay his rookie season on the bench with Ryan Fitzmagic playing well that year, wasn't a good coaching move to throw him out there.

Steve Young did not start his career on the bench. First he played in the USFL, and then Tampa. And then he moved to the 49ers bench.

I don't think there is a smokescreen, SF hasn't said anything it's more just the media and it being the lying season.

I keep hearing that and yet Beathard started games as a rookie. RG3 won rookie of the year. Jimmy came mid season and possibly played his best football in this system during that 2017 games. Tua and Fitz is not a good comparison because Tua was coming off of a major injury that could've ended his career, sitting him was more for allowing as much time as possible to come back from that injury, for that yes it was a stupid coaching move. I would be for it though, letting Jimmy play the season and letting Fields learn for the year, I just don't see it going that way if we do draft Fields

CJ was forced into games as a rookie and lost them all. That's not our goal. Fields would obviously do better than that but I still see us doing what KC did with Mahomes and giving him a year on the bench just because it's the safer route.

You all are fighting over the wrong guys. Jimmy's gonna win a Superbowl this year and be the QB for the next 3 years.

Possibly Jets. There's some mind games going on between Shanny and Salehs camp with the "Jets are locked on Wilson" news

I like all three qbs for different reasons but Fields upside athleticism and arm will make him the most fun to watch

imagine this wild s**t lol. I'd go in a different direction at 15 and honestly I really want Fields/Lance to sit to give them the best opportunity to be prepared....but this would still be nuts.

If we did this and traded up and got Ojulari I think people would start building shrines of Lynch in their closets
