This isn't fantasy football. You can't just make trades or sign guys because you like them.

BUT if Q-Will becomes an All Pro for the next 6 years then the Cowboys move would not be bad at all regarding of how much they pay him.... everyone thought that KC gave up too much for Mahomes when they traded up, I personally thought they did not because Alex Smith was never gonna take them anywhere.. AND I did feel that we traded TOO MUCH for a young QB who only had 1+ season in a small school..

The point is Dallas was in a more desparate position after trading Parsons. They needed a D linemen that could pressure the QB. They were also in a better position to make that trade. If the Niners had traded a 2 and a 1 to get Williams fans would have been complaining for the next 5 years how bad the 49ers drafts are.

Kinda like how bad was wasting 3 first round picks on Trey lance?? Or all the blown first round picks, the draft don't mean s**t anymore cause lynch can't draft

I FIRMLY believe that Lynch will be a better GM and even drafting better players who is similar to his ways of playing if Shann Softy aint the HC.

If I cared to waste time to respond to you I would have. But since you spend so much time soiling your pants screaming about the salary cap;

We have 40 mil in cap space for next year. I would have never extended Aiuyk, Deebo, Trent, McKivitz or even Purdy to those massive extensions. That would have freed up about 120 mil or more.

We could have easily kept McGlinchey, Al-Shaair, DJ Jones, Buckner, Armstead and Hufunga and one of Key or Ebukam. Especially if we aren't paying 125 mil to Aiuyk, Deebo, Trent, McKivirz, and Purdy.

Depth wins games. Not resigning overpriced veterans.

In what world would the 49ers have paid 3 IDL the kinda money they make? And in what world would DJ Jones want to be a backup? Like it or not the 49ers couldn't afford all those guys, next you're gonna say we could keep Hargrave yet he never would have been signed, nor would we had traded for Collins, these are all wishful thinking, they would never work, also in what world are the 49ers not paying Brock, Trent, also guys like CMC & Kittle & Warner & Bosa, right there with your 6 there are 12 plus the fact that you probably think we could/should add in FA signing big name FAs when that's never happening, I don't get how you actually think this would have happened, the 49ers were never giving this kind of money to that many players, especially as I said 3 IDL which never will happen.

Depth win games yes it does and signing overpriced vets doesn't indeed which is why you don't give three IDL big money, or go crazy with the signings you think would have worked, just not feasible, but I get it you think I'm some hack or nobody when I've been doing this since 2005, it's not/never was feasible, just get over it, teams change their personnel every year.

You're assuming an awful lot thinking I'd want us to sign feee agents. I hate free agency. It rarely works paying big money to free agents.

It's simple. Don't pay Brock, Trent or Aiuyk.

DJ Jones isn't a starter in Denver and wouldn't be a starter here. He's paid 10 mil a year which is what rotational linemen get.

And and FYI, try using the space bar and make proper sentences. You'd think for someone who has been "doing this since 2005" you'd know how to string a sentence together

With that said the 49ers did not need to trade for him. They have two good draft picks with very good potential in Collins and West. They need to get a 3rd and maybe a 4th piece to give them breathers so they can be on the field and wreck havoc at the end of games. Keion White can be that 3rd piece in the interior, hopefully, he's not as good outside- so far. Also, hopeful they can find a 4th rotational guy and a good Edge opposite of Bosa.

We really need Mykel to be a hit, though. His injury worries me. I really hope it's not like Trey Lance where the dude breaks and then he's permanently done. If that's the case, I wouldn't blame the FO for just going full-blown Rams and trading all our 1sts for proven talent over the next decade. Not all first round picks this regime has made are bad (like some users in this thread are implying) but they really shouldn't be coin flips, either. First round picks are the selections where you should really be hitting 75% of the time, not 50%. If Mykel is another bust, I say eff it and just trade our 1sts for proven talent moving forward!

The solution to picking bad and busting isn't trading away all of your picks. It's finding somebody WHO CAN PICK! If this isn't the guy (he's not) you move on.

Brah... stop it... you're wasting your time w/the Shannanigans..

It's like they believe this is all you can do. Just Shany/Lynch. No matter how much the miss and bust. Their solution is to trade away all our picks and stick with the guys who pick bust after bust.

main issue here is the HC... dude thinks he can win because of his system regardless of whichever players he's got.. these Shannanigans stay quiet of how poor both Lynch and Shanny been doing with the OL... Shanny thinks he can replica the great job his father did w/the Broncos' OL when they won back to back Super Bowl..

We've lost two Super Bowls eventhough we had the better teams because of his inability to attack KC's weakest link... The Rams was giving away the NFCCG a couple years back and Shanny still had not clue how to get it done..

Lynch gun shy because of the Trey Lance fiasco and now believe that he's drafted a bunch of DIAMONDS IN THE ROUGH that he rather not make a trades and rather save MONEY AND PICKS not realizing that the CORE of this team is heading down..

PATHETIC
Heavy duty whinging again I see.

The Broncos had Terrell Davis and Elway. That's so much different IMO. CMC is a dual threat guy. Davis was a pound straight ahead one cut guy. From a different era where teams ran more. I like and have supported Brock. But he's not tall, big, strong like Elway with a rocket for an arm. Just totally different. Yeah they didn't have a great offensive line. More of a zone blocking scheme with just patchwork guys. It's why Shany thinks he can do it. Because his father did. But that was a different era with much different key pieces. He had a unique situation that isn't likely to be repeated. Certainly not with our composition.

You can't just trade all your picks for players because the salary cap prevents you from simply acquiring whoever you want unfortunately.

Cap forces you to build through the draft to stay under the cap, and I'm sure the team is well aware of the trade–off. It is what it is. They will go big if it fits financially and pick resource wise. Nothing fit that at the deadline beyond what we'd already done.

Gotta disagree with people saying that Quinnen Williams couldn't fit under the 49ers salary cap. His cap hit for this year is only $8 million and next year wouldn't be that much more at $21 million cap hit that. BUT, I'm sure Trent Williams $38 mil cap hit in 2026 will be reworked and so will Aiyuk's $15 mil cap hit, no denying that!!! The cap can be and will be manipulated next year to free up money. Yetur Gross-Matos will surely be released, dude straight up stole $9 million from the 9ers this season, that's actually a bigger hit than Huff. Jake Brendel, IMO is surely a goner, I doubt they keep him at $5 mil and gonna be 35 years old. Jennings is also a goner, all his other years are voidable and they will be this upcoming March. Kittle and CMC's contracts are the only ones I doubt they'll touch.

Teams with high paid QB's work the salary cap to stay competitive all the time!! Tell me how the Patriots, Chiefs, Philly, Baltimore did it all those years? They're consistently in the race for the Super Bowl each year and it's not like they have a bunch of no names around their QB's either!!! Is anyone gonna admit that the 49ers have been mis-managed all these years?
