Not really, that tells me the Jets weren't willing to trade down from #2 because if the 9ers were willing to trade up to #3 they were willing to trade up to #2 to secure their guy. The Jets want a QB at #2 and is most likely going to be Zach Wilson even if the 9ers were to prefer Wilson. My guess is the 9ers will take Trey Lance. Fields is also a possibility, but my guess is Shanny and Lynch prefer Trey Lance.
They're going to take Lance, dude has the biggest boom potential and after seeing Mahomes beat them in the SB he reminds them of him. Kyle is very confident in his coaching and the talent around him that Lance will not be a bust. I'm perfectly fine with Lance and hoping it's him. Jets aren't passing on Wilson
Daniel Jerimiah keeps making a big deal on Pro Day timing. "Lance and Jones have had their pro day's but Fields has not, why not wait?"

I love Mac Jones, but I doubt we gave up this much to get a SAFE pick. I think Lynch and Shanny are positioning themselves to get Wilson. Either another trade is coming to get #2 or they found out the Jets like someone else. I could see the Jets telling Lynch #2 is available, but we aren't dropping all the way to #12, so figure something out and Lynch did just that today.

Zach Wilson is going to be our future franchise QB.

This is a very good point. I wouldn't be surprised if the Jets trade with us and then trade down again a little bit for more picks. New coaching staff can see what they have in Darnold. If he flames out, they will likely be picking very high again next year and have the draft capital to move to basically any spot they want.

If we dont get Wilson this trade was a massive mistake.

Not if Shanahan feels that Fields can be just as good.

Shanahan thought Beathard was legit. I really hope this move isnt based on his scouting eye.

hardly, he was drafted to be a backup and a backup he is,

He was a 6th round talent that Shanahan traded up for in the 3rd. You don't move up in the 3rd for a backup QB.

Shanny has never developed a rookie QB either. Im very nervous.

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

49ers want to win a Superbowl not have a QB throw 30 TDs.

Yes, Jets keeping Darnold and taking Pewell to protect him. Thanks Salah!!!

I hope to god its not fields

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.

Josh Allen, Pat Mahomes and Deshaun Watson were huge trade ups as well

I wouldn't be shocked if they took Sewell, Douglas is all about OL/DL.
I'm just trying to figure out what the plan is here.

Go all in for a SB this year with the current team and Jimmy while getting the new QB ready then what? Complete rebuild as they wont be able to afford to keep next years free agents.

I don't get it.

Agreed. I have no problem with this trade
Wow, you don't look at the zone for a few hours and this is what happens. I hope they know what they're doing.

Sewell and Becton at OT would be insane.

Chargers did just fine.

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.

The 49ers can compete for a SB in 2021 with Jimmy. With a rookie QB, they cant. Plain and simple.
