In the end this is a QB driven league. You have to do any and everything you can to secure a FQ until you do. This may or may not end up being the move that nets that FQ, but as a 49ers fan I appreciate the effort.

Our pick will be 1st or 2nd overall, the Saints have been winning so how is that a steal?

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 play preclude them from doing what they've done in the last 2 years and trading back up into round one.

Oh, OK I get it.

You can ease your mind, as we still have a second round pick (from the Saints).

5) To be 100% clear, I am 100% on board with the trade. I'm simply stating that the pick wasn't worthless.

We still have a 2nd and two 3rds we can use to trade up into the first if needed. Granted, it will take more because we can expect the Saints 2nd to be more at the back end than front.

ShannyLynch were also scared of the 0-16 which was a very real possibility.

i think at the very least, they could feel some heat building and i am sure. while they did it for the long term .. i think they knew they needed to make a splash and give he fans who are not happy something to look forward to

I think they realized they needed to fill those seats at Levi, people will come if only to see if JG is any good.

I know that.

I also know that the Saints are on a 5 game winning streak and that pick will likely be at the end of the round and would preclude a trade back up into round 1.

That doesn't mean I don't support the trade. It means they will likely not trade up from round 2 unless they acquire another pick in moving down from their 1st pick.

Originally posted by Marvin49:

Correct. Thats why I said MAY preclude it. Lots can happen including trading down from 1st pick.

Correct. When you're on the front end of the 2nd, it makes sense to move up into the first for that 5th year option on a player you covet and it won't cost too much.

We can still do that but will need to throw in more for the same value.

I'm surprised by Lynch, his hiring was a big HUH? He is great on camera and surrounded himself with good people. This offseason is huge!
