I rather trade him now, when there is a team desperately wanting him back. Do what we was suppose to do to Mullins in 2019.

I am going to assume the 49ers do not want to go 7-9.

9ers have a way better roster.

i am talking in terms of getting the QB ready for the season.

I don't get the hate on Fields honestly. Don't wanna assume it's "black QB" downgrade but it certainly seems like it to me.

Fields is a lot more proven, just as athletic if not more than Lance. And is a f**king baller. Guess people quickly moved on from his game against Clemson when people started talking about him going #1 over Lawrence here and there?

I trust Kyle. I've said it the whole draft process, if he's willing to give up what it takes to get one of them then I'm all in. I just didn't think we'd give up that much given our needs in free agency. However they absolutely killed this free agency and essentially kept their roster together.

This move makes a ton of sense and I hope similar to KC/Houston we get our guy who gives us the next great 49ers QB for many years to come.

They blame him for this years National Championship game when it was painfully obvious to nearly anyone he was the only one doing anything on the field for his team that day.

Disagree, Douglas and Saleh more likely told Kyle what they weren't doing, which is trading out of #2. It tells us to most likely expect that picks 1 & 2 will be Lawrence and Wilson respectively.

I think its more of an Ohio State QB downgrade which is also ridiculous. Fields isn't my favorite but he's an exceptional talent. For nearly two years he was the consensus #2 guy in this draft class and now suddenly people are getting nitpick fever and are coming up with outlandish hot takes. Not a perfect prospect but he does things well enough that he could be a potential Russell Wilson like quarterback at the next level.

I have to add only because the damn guys on NFL Network keep mentioning him, if we made the move for Mac Jones I will absolutely lose my mind.

...but if he turns into Tom Brady 2.0 I'll forgive and forget.

maybe 2/3 swap now coming with the Jets?? Its gotta be Wilson

for what the 49ers just gave up to get there, wouldn't they just have traded w/ the Jets directly?

thats the part of this story that people are missing.

Maybe the Jets don't want to go down to #12.

Ohio state QB's bust way too much. Hopefully if he's the pick is an anomaly.

oregon qbs have been total busts until last year....

True Dat....I hate deals like this as we have seen before. RG III, Sam Bradford, Carson Wentz and most of the high trade value DRAFT TRADE QB'S kinda suck.

That had nothing to do with QB play and you know it....

If it's not wilson I'm going to be pissed. Salah must have already told shanahan that wilson is not their pick.

My want - Wilson

What will (probably) happen knowing the 49ers - Mac Jones


LOL, they didn't move to #3 for Jones. This move is for Wilson! Jets sticking with Darnold and selecting Pewell to protect him.

And they didnt resign everyone to start a rookie QB.
Hopefully it's for Fields. Dude is going to be special.
