If the Jets don't take a QB i don't see how they then don't trade down a few spots...this makes me nervous...

ya...Slater and Pewell are good prospects, but neither of them scream out future HOF can't miss OT...

they are either taking a QB or moving down.

Pitts would be the perfect piece to add for Darnold. His size and speed are unique. He will be a superstar. I could easily see him going #2.

This??

JJust exactly thinking this as well

Lawrence is a lock to go #1. The 49ers may have an even grade on Wilson and Fields and they are guaranteed to be able to get one of them now.

I'd put my money on Mac Jones

The question I´m asking myself is if this trade was for Watson originally. And then with the lawsuit, they decided to go all in for a QB.
Honestly, that´s a little bit too much for me. For Watson, I don´t mind. But for a rookie QB??? For me one first rounder and two second rounders could have done the deal.
But well, kudos to Kyle and John to go for it. I´d love the fact they will keep Jimmy.
Now just draft an edge rusher or Kellen Mond.

My guess is the 49ers are sold on Lance at #3 at minimum with the wildcard that Fields exceeds expectations at his pro day and 49er interviews.

NFL Draft:
Lawrence
Wilson
Lance or Fields

ATL is now in a prime position for teams to trade up for the remaining QB if they are comfortable with a big drop back. It really screws CAR as I think ATL will require an even greater premium to trade the pick within their own division.

He said in his first draft that he grew up the biggest steve young fan.

How many more time will we miss out on niner guys. Tommy, A-Rod, soon to be Wilson.

IF you offered a 1st and 2 2nds to move to 3rd overall they'd laugh at you and hang up.

They basically gave up two future 1sts which will more than likely be bottom of the 1st. They didn't lose a single pick in this yrs draft (2022 3rd) and are getting extra 3rds the next two yrs.

They can also move Jimmy some point to recoup some value in those future drafts.

They're drafting a QB at 3 dude. Have no idea where Mond is coming from. There isn't a EDGE rusher worth a top 25 pick let alone giving up yrs of 1sts.

There´s still the possibility that IF the player the Niners like, is gone they trade down again. I would not be surprised at all if that happens.
