So long quarterbacks? New draft order following Rams trade to No. 1

In a move that will certainly
throw everyone's mock drafts into chaos, the NFC West rival Los Angeles Rams have
moved into the number one spot in this month's NFL Draft following a trade with the Tennessee Titans.
The Rams
give up their first-round pick (15th overall), two second round picks, a third round pick, and first and third round picks next year to the Titans, per the
Los Angeles Times. The Rams get the Titans' number one overall, a fourth round pick, and a sixth round pick this year.
The trade certainly changes the landscape of the draft. Likely gone will be the two top quarterback prospects in Jared Goff and Carson Wentz to the Rams and the Cleveland Browns – not necessarily in that order.
NFL Media's Albert Breer reports the Rams already have conducted on-campus workouts with both quarterbacks.
What this does mean is that a solid non-quarterback prospect may fall to the San Francisco 49ers' pick at seventh overall.
Here is the new updated draft order in the first round.
- Rams (From Titans)
- Browns
- Chargers
- Cowboys
- Jaguars
- Ravens
- 49ers
- Eagles (From Dolphins)
- Buccaneers
- Giants
- Bears
- Saints
- Dolphins (From Eagles)
- Raiders
- Titans (From Rams)
- Lions
- Falcons
- Colts
- Bills
- Jets
- Redskins
- Texans
- Vikings
- Bengals
- Steelers
- Seahawks
- Packers
- Chiefs
- Cardinals
- Panthers
- Broncos

Albert Breer weighs in on when the 49ers might trade Jimmy Garoppolo
When will the San Francisco 49ers finally trade quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, officially ushering in the Trey Lance era without the distraction of the veteran still being on the roster? The team has tried, but Garoppolo opting to undergo shoulder surgery on March 8 halted all trade talks.
"I felt like we were close in some [trade] discussions, and then the decision was made to have surgery," general manager John Lynch said earlier this month. "That just brought things to a screeching halt."
Now, everyone is waiting for Garoppolo to be healthy again. The problem is that many quarterback-needy teams have already made offseason moves to improve the position. A couple
49ers Notebook: Brock Purdy's draft surprise, Tariq Castro-Fields on his NFL readiness, and more
Rookie minicamp gets underway Friday for 49ers drafted players and undrafted free agents, but before those players take the field, they were hit with a number of questions from reporters during pre-camp media sessions on Thursday.
Among the players to speak with reporters on Thursday were wide receiver and third-round pick Danny Gray (SMU), offensive lineman and fourth-round pick Spencer Burford (UT-San Antonio), cornerback and sixth-round pick Tariq Castro-Fields (Penn State), quarterback and seventh-round pick Brock Purdy (Iowa State), and undrafted offensive linemen Jason Poe (Mercer) and Dohnovan West (Arizona State). 49ers WebZone already discussed what Gray said

Since the start of free agency and the NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers have added more talent to their roster to hopefully get the team over the hump in its quest for a sixth championship. With training camp set to open at the end of July, let's take a quick look at how the 49ers will look on offense. Next week's article will focus on the defense and special teams.
Quarterback
At the start of training camp, the Trey Lance era will officially begin. Since the offseason began, Lance has worked with the other skill position players to hone his timing and offensive rhythm with his pass-catchers.
Jimmy Garoppolo remains on the roster, but he is unlikely to get on the practice field as the team works to trade the veteran quarterback. The move will
49ers announce jersey numbers of entire draft class, including No. 74
Last week, we found out what numbers many of the San Francisco 49ers rookies would be wearing during the team's three-day rookie minicamp. Those numbers will be sticking around through at least the rest of the offseason program. Obviously, they are subject to change after roster cuts ahead of Week 1.
Matt Barrows of The Athletic tweeted out several rookie jersey numbers, including select undrafted free agents. Missing from his tweet, however, was the number of the 49ers' fifth-round draft pick, cornerback Samuel Womack. The team announced that he will wear No. 26, last worn by cornerback Josh Norman.
