SLC is a s**thole. The general vicinity is beautiful but it's a garbage city.

lol how so? SLC is one of the cleanest, most organized big cities in the country. Their downtown has wide streets with full sized parking lanes on either side.

Oh well by those standards...enjoy your watered down beer and getting a membership at any bar you want to drink at. And it's not that clean at all.

Wide streets. Lol. That isn't really a downtown.

It's a two QB draft - after Lawrence and Wilson, it's a crap shoot for next three QB's. Lance has only played one season of football: Jones has a weak arm and Fields lacks experience. We might have been better staying at #12 and taking BPA and do this all over again for the QB's next year.
Fields lacks experience? I believe you're referring to Lance. Fields is obviously the best of this group. He's the pick.

Yeah, I meant to say that Fields only played one year, too. There for he lacks some playing time.

Fields played 2. Most experienced outside of Lawrence

Well if you're a drunk who judges his cities based on alcohol then yeah, SLC isnt a great place. But if you like beautiful mountains, clean air, and low crime, its pretty good.

The main downside is the cult vibes, which is a big deal. But otherwise its a great city.

I could only stomach this if it was for Watson pre-assault charges.

Because they know they will get a QB that they want @ 3. No one knows if Lance is going to be a star in the NFL or not, sure all signs point to it but just because you were drafted high does not mean it translates to success in the NFL. (Solomon Thomas, Ryan Leaf, Demarcus Russell anyone?). The 9ers may end up picking the best QB of the 21 class or he could end up being another bust. Hopefully they don't get a bust, and I'd even settle for above average, but hope for a star. 😎
Who is the best prospect who's not a QB in this draft?
My money is on Fields. He has Shanahan connections. The 49ers will be leaking out smokescreen rumors for Lance and Jones for the next month trying to keep the Falcons happy staying at 4.

If ATL loves Fields, wants him bad enough, and feels like they have to leapfrog SF, the Jets may very well move back to 4 for a haul.

Probably, Pitts.

Guys, do you honestly believe we just re-signed all these vets to win now, and were just going to dump Jimmy and draft a rookie? Common sense. Jimmy is the QB this year.

Correct

Then we get Wilson.

Maybe Kyle doesn't want Wilson. Maybe he wants Fields.

What is the Shanahan/Fields connection?

Ya that seems like the "everyone wins" category! Sign me up. Wilson seems to me like a substantial step above any other option.

Maybe, but he might "settle" for Wilson. He seems a consensus top 2 pick and they've already stated they'll be happy with whoever falls to them at 3.
