The FO should get criticism for the trade, but they should also get credit for finding Brock. Both the trade for Trey and finding a Mr. Irrelevant in Brock and have him put up top 5 QB numbers is incredibly improbable, yet both things happened. You can't make this stuff up.
If Brock looks like he did last year, we found our guy for the next 15 years.
That's all I wanted. Mission accomplished.
If Brock doesn't work out, we are back to square one since we all know what Darnold is. Garbage and he proved it tonight besides the one throw.
Trading Lance was a mistake since if Brock gets hurt we are f**ked. I get it though he was moved to make room for Bosa and there needed to be some sort of pin drop.
I look at it this way. JL said we need the money to ys. There was no competition. KS spun it that way, but knows Darnold ain't it and is hoping to God that Brock doesnt get hurt. If Brock f**ks his UCL again, his career is most likely f**ked since he will need Tommy John Surgery. Look at Ohtani, poor guy is about to lose 200M cause of the same injury.
The clock has started to tick because you better be right when you fail this badly to evaluate talent at the most important position. 6 years... 6 years and we haven't found a franchise QB... Though it's looking like we lucked into one. Still we don't know if he's the real deal given the sample size. Furthermore, the unwinding of this FO and Coaching staff has begun. Lynch said it's not Lance's fault that they didn't build an O around his talents... KS is now saying that he believes they did but he got hurt....
So which is it? I think we are starting to see who wanted Lance and who didn't...
As much as I love KS... I always believed his stubbornness would be his downfall. There's a crack in the ship... We better hope that Brock can patch it make all go away or else it might be a long long season.
Agreed ,,Trey would not of saved the day . IMHO ,Trey ended up being slower then expected coming out of college , he may of been fast in ND state but in the NFL he looked like a slug to me ,Slow in every aspect slow in his reads ,,which may have gotten better with more experience , but it shows his mental process ,,i expected him to pull away form defenders when scrambling ,,he didn't ,he was not the runner i thought he was coming out of college , there is no teaching ,or experience thats going to teach him awareness and speed ,, he'll panic ,hold on to the ball or get sacked, .. I was hoping for Trey Lance, after all he was a 49er and I didn't want him to fail ,But honestly as it looked up into this trade I didn't think he was a fit for team.
This team is ready to win now,, thats why they stuck Trey to 3rd string, bad circumstances with the injuries set Trey back here and there isn't the time with the team to try and grow and fix him as we try and compete with top teams in the NFC to get the SB.. So am I ashamed of the front office the way they handled this ,,Hell no for what ? Ive been with this team since the late 70's , I've been around when they traded Montana, cut Craig, Lott and Rice , got rid of Haley and can't even begin to try and write all the stupid draft picks i've seen over the years ..First and foremost its business ,not personal . A business is going to make a bunch of mistakes big and small what makes a good business is how they deal with the adversity and overcome it . I see this trade as smart business over a big mistake..that makes sense to me..
