He could have stuck with his mac jones prediction. They caved and now we have to hope that it works out. I'm disappointed in the whole process, starting with the trade up. I think shanahan panicked. I think giving up two first rounders was a terrible move. Just all around disappointed.

Yeah, who knows. David Lombardi and Barrows thought the move was initially for Mac too (highly suspect it was anything else) and Kyle confirmed it came down to those two too. Never mentioned Fields. Staff and owner thought it was Mac too...has to be for a valid reason.

Who knows what to believe anymore. LOL

He's right. And so was Lombardi. Lynch and Shanahan caved in to pressure to select Lance. Too much smoke and evidence. What disappoints me the most is that they said the presser that would listen to social media etc, and they were going to do their job.

He's not right...at no point did the front office indicate who they were taking. It was always speculation or beliefs that the 49ers were picking Jones. All the smoke was hot air being pushed by the media craving for anything to talk about and no evidence. Also, Lance would not have been there at 12. Reports/speculation had Carolina being interested in taking Lance at 8 and Allbright reporting that the Broncos would only trade up for a QB if it was Lance. Lance to the 49ers picked up steam right before the draft and the Broncos made a trade for Teddy. Truth is, if we picked Jones it would create a QB frenzy with teams wanting to move up for Fields and Lance. It didn't happen and now the media is trying to cover their behinds or pretend it never happened.

Exactly, there were multiple teams who were all over Lance. Not just 2, but like 3 or more. Moving up this far was the only guarantee of getting him. He was going anywhere 4 thru 9 otherwise.

This idiot too. Him & Karen Florio sounded like complete douches trying to CYA the day after. Them, Lombardi and a handful of other dicks are gonna die on this stupid moehill. Hey dumbasses it's not really a stretch they were targeting Lance the whole time.

There weren't any leaks. The reporters talk to player agents as well and if Lance's agent tells a reporter that there are a handful of teams in the top 10 interested in him, then it isn't that difficult to conclude that SF is also interested.

My things is, did Fields drop mainly because of his condition? He seems to be the most dynamic.

I think you have not dealt with what you've just seen. We gave up the farm and selected Trey. Mac Jones got bedsores sitting on his ass in the waiting room til his name got called middle first round. That's tangible proof he never belonged in the conversation anyway

They knew Fields wasn't in consideration because they probably told him, "hey we really like you but we will be going another directions" and his agent probably told reporters. Trey Lance probably gained steam at the end because they probably told Mac Jones the same thing.
