If Jimmy G sucks we gave up a high second rounder, which could have been another D-linemen!!!!
This Sucks!!!!
If Garoppolo indeed becomes a franchise QB, it would be a huge freaking steal!
what 2nd round pick have we hit in awhile, can't remember. So getting JG is already a steal
Well, Niners traded up from that 2nd round pick the last two years for Garnett (we'll see) and Foster (looks good so far when he's healthy)...so kinda hard to judge.
Those were 1st round picks not 2nd round picks.
.......
Correct.....but how did they get those picks?
I'm not following?
Are you trying to say that trading a second round pick for a first round pick, makes the player a 2nd round pick?
What I am trying to say is when you suck at picking in the second round, trade the pick for proven players or trade back into the first round which is an easier pick for novice gm's.
?
I think you are reading more into my comment than I intended.
1) I don't think drafting ability magically dissipates between the 32nd and 33rd pick.
2) I'm saying the last few years the 49ers haven't made a 2nd round pick because they traded it to move up a few picks and take a guy they targeted and we don't know yet how that will turn out.
3) The last two 2nd round picks the 49ers actually used were on Jaquiski Tartt and Carlos Hyde...two players who are pretty good and may or may not be a part of the rebuild. Thats only 2 2nd rounder in 4 years.
4) I'm saying that trading that 2nd round pick may preclude them from doing what they've done in the last 2 years and trading back up into round one. Doing that doesn't guarantee anything but that is what became of the last 2 picks. IE there have been no 2nd rounders in the last 2 years to judge.
5) To be 100% clear, I am 100% on board with the trade. I'm simply stating that the pick wasn't worthless.
