It's frustrating but I don't expect the niners to make a big splash trade after Buckner.
Did you think Buckner was a splash trade? 9ers don't make splash trades for veterans. Sure they gave up a few picks for CMC but that's hardly a splash trade, more like balling on a budget trade.
What is a "splash trade" then? I'd say trading for an eventual Offensive Player of the Year as a huge cannonball splash.
Young player that cost two 1st round picks is what I consider a splash trade.
So in recent seasons, here are what you'd consider splash trades: Sauce Gardner, Micah Parson, and anyone else? When I think splash trade, I think more about the player coming back, not the package being given up. CMC is a splash trade to me because of the quality of the player coming back.
CMC went for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and a 5th. By your definition, this is not a splash trade, but had the 49ers given up two 1st rounders instead, then it becomes a splash trade? meh
CMC was a good trade no doubt about it. But I look at that more like a value trade more than anything. According to the draft value chart they basically could've just given up one 1st round pick and it would've equaled same but they found their way around that.
Wouldn't you call a trade for Jefferey Simmons and Dexter Lawrence splash trades?
Yes, I consider Simmons and Lawrence splash trades, because they are both high quality players. Lawrence didn't get traded for two 1st rounders so I guess you don't think that's a splash trade. All good, we can agree to disagree.
I still consider it a splash trade, that 9ers wouldn't have made. Like I said Lynch just doesn't spend 1st round picks on veterans.
Lynch has said himself that the package he offered up for KMack to the Raiders was better than the package that CHI offered. So it's possible that Lynch will dive in for the splash if the player is right. KMack went for: two 1s, one 3rd, and one 6th.

Lynch then confirmed that he considers the offer he made better than the offer the Raiders got.
Two factors that still happened my friend. One Raiders don't make trades with the 9ers. Two, they still didn't end up spending a 1st round pick for a veteran no matter what he said. Until we know exactly what Lynch meant by this hard to determine what they would've given up. For all we know it could've been DeForest Buckner and a two 2nd round picks.
Look at splash trades like this, you could get any player in the NFL for a 1st round pick or two. Could you get any player for a 2nd and 3rd round pick?
Yeah that's fair, Lynch may have thought his package was better even though it didn't contain two 1s. Nowhere did he say that his proposal included two 1s. Getting back to Wilson, I won't pretend to watch NYJ games because I don't. If you think Wilson is worth two 1s, then I get why you want Lynch to offer that up.
Nope I don't think Wilson is worth two 1st round picks. That's what it will probably take to convince NYJ to trade him, but I wouldn't give that up. Most I'd give up is a 1st and a 3rd this year. I might give up a 2nd next year too, if that's what it took to outbid a team.
ah ok. NY listed a bunch of recently traded high profile WRs and the average cost was one 1st + one 3rd.
I can't think of one WR I'd trade two 1st round picks for. Justin Jefferson, J'Mar Chase and Puka Nacua aren't even worth two 1st round picks. IMO
That's crazy to me. The odds of you getting a player of the caliber of any of those guys with a 1st round pick are pretty low. Especially if you're picking in the 20s.
Yeah one of those number 1s could be anything. You could get a Pearsall or a Garrett Wilson outta them.
