San Francisco 49ers cornerback Jamar Taylor went down near the end of the second quarter of the team's Week 12 road matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. He had to be carted off the field and to the locker room after appearing to suffer a left knee injury.
Taylor appeared to be in significant pain as he was helped onto the cart. The injury came on a hit from Rams running back Malcolm Brown.
Taylor has been playing at the slot cornerback position during
K'Waun Williams' absence.
Emmanuel Moseley replaced him.
Taylor, an eight-year veteran, is in his first season with San Francisco. He entered the game with 19 tackles, two tackles for a loss, a sack, two quarterback hits, two interceptions, and three passes defensed this season.
Taylor is credited with three tackles against the Rams.

Last week, the San Francisco 49ers shocked the NFL world by trading up to the No. 3 spot in this month's draft. There is an overwhelming belief that Trevor Lawrence of Clemson and Zach Wilson of BYU will both be off the board by the time general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan are on the clock. If that is how things play out, what will be their move?
We asked the 49ers Webzone staff to predict who the Niners will select at No. 3 overall, should Lawrence and Wilson be unavailable. Below are the responses in the order in which they were received.

McShay: Mac Jones won't start over Jimmy Garoppolo Week 1 if 49ers draft him

The argument for Mac Jones over some other quarterback prospects at No. 3 overall is that the former Alabama player might be among the most ready to step in and play. Some feel that Justin Fields of Ohio State or Trey Lance of North Dakota State could benefit from sitting and learning for a year. Much of that has to do with the system within which Jones played last year.
Fields and Lance are viewed as having higher ceilings than Jones, though. They may be better long-term prospects.
ESPN's Todd McShay released his latest mock draft and has the San Francisco 49ers selecting Jones with their top pick. That

Trust nothing.
No, I am not talking about the pre-draft chatter that the San Francisco 49ers are locked in on Alabama quarterback Mac Jones with the No. 3 overall pick. Although, I tend not to trust pre-draft chatter either. I am talking about April Fools' Day.
Sorry, George Kittle. No one is falling for this one.
The 49ers' All-Pro tight end tweeted out the following, hoping to fool some gullible fans by suggesting that he had been traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars. He even included a mock-up of himself in his new uniform.

Here's what 3 sources told Dan Patrick about the 49ers and the No. 3 draft pick

Dan Patrick shared some insight into what the San Francisco 49ers are planning to do with the No. 3 overall pick after trading some hefty draft capital last week to move into that spot. Many analysts are projecting Alabama quarterback Mac Jones to be the pick, but others feel he could have been had with a later selection.
Would Jones have made it all the way down to No. 12, the 49ers' original spot? Maybe not. But selecting him at No. 3 is viewed by many as a massive reach.
With Trevor Lawrence of Clemson and Zach Wilson of BYU expected to be off the board by the 49ers' selection, both Justin Fields of Ohio State and Trey Lance of North Dakota State are widely seen as passers with higher ceilings compared to Jones. So, what is Patrick hearing?
