Just wondering who would make a call if we were interested in trading say Nate Davis and 4th rounder to Philly for Michael Vick?

What if the Bills were interested in trading for Nate Davis or Glen Coffee, who would pick up the phone in 49er land?

Thats great that this Trent Baalke knows a lot about the draft, the scouting, will be on recruiting trips and can lead our draft board......... but who calls the shots w/o a GM on trades?????

I guess Baalke would pick up the phone, but if the trade involved players on other teams and not just draft picks, Gamble would definitely have some influence.

Nate Davis is better than Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Drew Brees combined. He's better than any #1 pick. We will win 12 Super Bowls with Nate Davis. Never trade Nate Davis.

Jed endorsed Baalke as the man running the show on draft day.

This is a proven fact. Have you been reading Niner Talk?

Singletary, Baalke and Jed York make the group decision based on some tough decision-making, stats, facts and arguments...along w/ whomever wins rock-paper-scissors.

Nate Davis is worth more than VICK, imo.

I'd want a 2nd rounder from Eagles also.

But then again i dont' want to get rid of Nate Davis, he's future.
