This is why I didn't think it made any sense to take the rawest qb ever with the roster we have.

So you don't think we should've drafted Trey?

No sir. I didn't like the trade up to 3. I would've traded up a tad for Slater or Surtain, filling a hole on an already ready to compete roster. Then building depth throughout the rest of the draft.
I do agree we needed a qb of the future but I don't believe in Lance. And aside from that, a team like the Niners shouldn't have taken a complete project, if taking a qb, get one either ready to play, then cut bait with Jimmy and strengthen the roster elsewhere, or just stay out of the market till next year.
Bottom line is, instead of strengthening the team, we kicked the fan down the road for a "possible" future payoff

Lol that thread is pretty telling

Don't completely agree because there are clearly some guys in there like myself and a few others who are clearly fans of both 49ers and Mac Jones.

I know it's a wild notion for someone to be fans of both yet here we are

But I do agree that there are also a few who certainly make me quietly question their fandom as well.

Oh for sure. Should have specified. Guys like you, Phoenix etc don't fall into that category

He will. It's going to be nice to finally have a good QB again for the first time in 20 years.

Remember when we said this for Alex? And Kaepernick? And Jimmy?

Because our 1st round picks have been so great under Lynch. Dude, we traded what could have been Solomon Thomas, Reuben Foster to draft the guy with the highest ceiling. If it works out, sounds like a win to me.

We also traded what could've been a new #1 WR and outside threat for the rawest QB with the least amount of playing time and film.

McVay said he thought we traded up for Pitts. That would've been a fantastic move, even in year 1.

My hope is that Lance absolutely balls out on Sunday and stuns the NFL, but I don't have the feeling he will. I have had reservations since he was drafted and we knew he was going to be a project. I have been waiting for the next great 49er QB Since Montana and Young. I have been a fan since Deberg was QB lol, and while I hope Trey is "the guy", I am pretty jaded by the wait.

Sunday will tell us all a lot. Not believing it until I see it doesn't mean I won't welcome him if he comes through. He doesn't have to show me a complete polished performance to win me over either , just show me he belongs out there after a year of practice. If he makes good decisions and looks any where near worth what we gave up for him I am going be a happy camper, but let's see it first.

That is the dumbest idea I've heard in some time, even in here. Spending three 1st rounders on a TE when we already have the best in the league would have been a fantastic move? Right….

Some wanted Kyle Pitts.

I actually feel the same way. Hoping he was the right pick for what was spent on him.
