Per Matt Maiocco
A source confirmed NFL Media insider Ian Rapoport's report that, yes, unspecified teams have called about Lance's availability and, no, the 49ers are not seeking to trade him.
publicly. they said it multiple times publicly. Kyle and John have not done that for Trey.
That's because Deebo was PUBLICILY trying to force a trade.
Why would Kyle and John give credence to a BS report when they could just talk to their players about where they stand behind closed doors?
If Kyle came out and said we're not trading him, would that actually make anyone believe it? Obviously not. Would the forum stop speculating he could be traded? NO.
I don't understand why you and many other posters are spreading a bunch of rumors that Trey's not at working camp and that the team doesn't defend him... its all lazy nonsense.
this offseason, Kyle and John have both PUBLICLY stated everyone is available for trade. Kyle and John have also both stated Brock is the leader and the starter for this team when he's healthy. Kyle and John have also said Trey needs more playing time to improve. if Brock has no setbacks, where is Trey going to get that much-needed PT? if Trey cant beat out Sam Darnold, they'll lose the current value of Trey's "potential". then what?
all these points are why a trade isnt as far fetched as many of you in here are making it.
This is all about risk/reward situation.
49ers have a potential SB roster but we just watched a season where the best roster in the NFL got embarrassed and our season ended because we didn't have a QB of any worth in a must win game.
So we want to get rid of Trey who currently is the only QB under contract who will be healthy for training camp and has actually played in this offense and been inside this locker room.
Ok fine...this is the risk involved
You trade Lance and odds are you're left relying on Brock to get back 100% and Darnold to be a good pickup. Neither is guaranteed. What happens if a repeat of anything near like what happened last year goes down?
What's more devesatitng to our chances of repeating? Not getting that top 50 pick for Trey(while also taking a cap HIT)? Or finding ourselves playing another mid round rookie QB or Josh Johnson level QB?
It's just not a risk worth taking, not for the level of return you're going to get. First round pick...ok you take the risk and hope to hell Brock is back and stays healthy and Darnold and Shanahan are a match made in bust overturn heaven.
Getting a mid-late 2nd round pick for Trey to me isn't worth the risk. The whole idea is you have a team ready to win now and you saw what happened last year. I'm sure even the anti Trey crowd in here would admit Trey is a much better option than Josh Johnson type.
I would much rather take less in a trade for Trey but get a good look at him in training camp. Get a good look at Darnold in training camp and get a better report on Brock's recovery in training camp and if Trey doesn't impress you then you move him. Yes it MAY be for less but you're ensuring you're setup for success for this season.
There is 0 guarantee the pick(s) we get from trading Lance would make an impact this season or at all. Some of you guys are so hard up for draft picks so the draft isn't boring you lose all sense of logic and reason.
it all hinges on how Kyle feels about him. fans' feelings on this forum have no bearing on the decision.
You read all that and got that from it?
Or more likely you didn't read and made the assumption?
Nobody said anything about fans. It's logically a terrible decision. Shanahan basically gave up in that Eagles game because we didn't have a QB. Regardless of how you feel about Trey does it make sense to leave the QB room with the only known being Brock Purdy? An 8 game starter who is recovering from a serious elbow injury that we have very little information about in terms of success/recovery rate for other QBs?
Sure he can make the move, we can draft a franchise RT or a top tier starter with the pick and all can work out honky dory at QB - Brock comes back to 100%, Darnold runs the offense well enough in his absence that we win games then Brock takes over and we never look back.
That's the perfect scenario.
I just don't understand how you can realistically expect that given recent history.
