David Shaw won’t interview with the 49ers

According to a source that spoke to The Mercury News' Jon Wilner, Stanford head coach David Shaw
will not be interviewing with the San Francisco 49ers.
Earlier today, Bleacher Report's Jason Cole suggested that, after the 49ers interview Bengals offensive coordinator Hue Jackson, the team would also target Shaw.
Shaw, who has no plans to interview with the 49ers and negotiated his own contract extension with Stanford back in 2012, has repeatedly said that he intends to coach for the Cardinal for many years. Stanford is Shaw's alma mater.
Shaw worked under former 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh during his stint at Stanford. He was the team's offensive coordinator starting in 2007 and became the head coach when Harbaugh left in 2011.

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

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?

Lombardi claims 49ers' John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan disagree on which QB to draft

It's been a while since we've had a report of disparity between general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan. We were probably overdue. Michael Lombardi of The Athletic is the latest to claim the two San Francisco 49ers decision-makers can't agree. This time, the difference of opinions surrounds what to do with the No. 3 overall pick. More specifically, it has to do with which quarterback to select—since we all know that is the plan.
"Someone told me yesterday—not an NFL head coach—but someone told me that there is a conversation in the building that Kyle wants X and maybe Lynch wants Y," Lombardi said during an interview on SiriusXM's The Rap with Patrick Meagher. "Look, I'm going to be very clear here—Kyle is going to make this pick. ...
