I think giving up that kind of draft capital for Crosby means they are admitting that they whiffed on Mykel or Bosa is out of the picture next year.

He's a an absolute bulldozer pushing guys backwards. He's a pocket crusher. With extreme power and excellent length. I see what they saw about him in some ways. He's just not a splash player of get the sacks and force fumbles. But he destroys the pocket and makes it very difficult to run to the edge. He does some things extremely well. He just won't show up in the stat line and or splash highlight plays. That doesn't mean he doesn't have an effect. We are better with him for sure.

I stand corrected.

Nevertheless, the Rams have been mostly pathetic since they won the Super Bowl. And following this year, given their cap situation and the draft capital they gave up, they will probably be pathetic the next couple years.

Concerning either way. If he didn't play because of the knee, then you'd have to wonder how much they can expect out of him the rest of the way. And if he didn't play because he has fallen that far on the depth chart, then they have a real problem.

Missing on some 1st round picks does not make 1st round picks less valuable. This is an absolutely r****ded fallacy of "John Lynch has missed on 1st round picks, therefore there aren't good players available in the 1st round".

This last seasons 1st round pick turned into De'Zhaun Stribling and Gracen Halton. Halton was playing lights out and looks like a future Pro Bowler before his injury, and Stribling outperformed every rookie WR in pre-season over the last 25 years and is the prototype X/WR1.

If you wanna criticize bad draft picks that someone made, go ahead, but guaranteeing that a 1st round pick that you don't even know who it will be just because other picks haven't worked out is fallacious.

Nobody cares about the draft in 27 if you get Lombardi #6.
Its not like you trade 3 firsts for an unproven QB. You could get 2 proven Quality Players for a first and a second and work magic with the 3rd, 5th, 6th and 7th. We have good youth coming already from the last 2 years

So who's the reasonable player (that's on the trade block) that will cost all these premium picks that makes this an "all in" f**k them picks scenario?

I don't even know a player that fits the narrative ya'll want…Maxx but I don't think he's actually available right now.

If you overpay enough, the Raiders will trade him. Especially since we just played them and they won't have to worry about playing against him for awhile.

We just saw this with the Titans and Jeffrey Simmons. Everyone has a price.

Now, is Maxx WORTH the overpay? Idk. But I'm about 99% sure the Raiders are going to hold firm for two 1sts that they were going to get from the Ravens. I'm not so sure I would do that. I would happily do it for one 1st + one 2nd, or possibly even the Myles Garret minus Jared Verse package, but is that enough for the Raiders to say yes?

It depends looking into the future. I love Nick as a 9er but are we really going to pay him huge money next year, the last year of his contract. The 9ers are looking ahead. If they already think they just might let Nick go and if Maxx has shelf life beyond the next few years then you could go in knowing Nick will not be on the books after next season.I'm not bashing Nick so please no letters but facts are facts and they may be looking ahead even though we are not aware.

I don't know what they are going to do but there are many loved guys on this team who are winding down. If this is not an all in year then what is?

I would like to see a WR and Rusher some how some way. If they find a seller.

Want the Bills to win and I think they will. It will be the only game this weekend that goes our way besides our own.

A mid-season trade guarantees nothing, and in most cases, if you don't win the Super Bowl that same year, you set your team back years.

The last time a mid-season trade pushed a team over the top to win a Super Bowl, it's when the Rams traded for Von Miller- he was already older and they gave up a 3rd and 5th rd pick for him. I wouldn't call that a "block buster", and it's the kinda trade that John Lynch would get clowned for by the unrealistic 49er fans.

The ONLY time a blockbuster, 1st rd + more pick should ONLY happen when all of these terms are satisfied:

1) They can afford to extend said player

2) The team is otherwise complete

3) The player is generational talent

The Jeffrey Simmons trade definitely improves the Bears, he is arguably a generational talent and he definitely has improved their team... but if they don't win the Super Bowl this year, they will feel this trade the next couple years. Caleb Williams is due for an extension and that number will be north of $70m/year. If I'm not mistaken, they also have some OL that are coming due soon, and they have holes all over every level of their D.

I don't see any generational players in their prime on the trade block right now for the 49ers. If a WR like Chase, JSN, JJ, etc was available, no brainer to give up 2x 1st rounds and give Purdy a critical weapon in his prime. Garret Wilson is good, but he is not that player, and I'd rather that money go to keeping guys like Greenlaw, Renardo Green and Puni around.

Rams gave up a 2nd + 3rd for Von Miller. Not 3rd + 5th.

The defense was very up and down, but I do think these are correctable issues going forward. Hopefully these things are figured out, and this defense is hitting its stride come playoffs.

Right, but some of you seem to be implying that if we trade our high picks away now, it guarantees that we will win # 6 this year. To state the obvious.....it does not, so if we trade our high picks for 27 and 28, stack the team, and don't win the SB this year (and can't afford the players we traded for for cap reasons ), then believe me, you will care about the draft picks we traded away.

I'd be right there with you if we were positive that we'd win the SB this year, but we could make the trades and still fall flat. That's reality.

I'm all for trading for the right fit, but no way am I mortgaging the future for an " all in this year or bust ". Just to risky.

You can play "safe for the future" and draft Lattes and Kwames. You can swing for the fences and get that DT from Tennessee that Washington got for 100 million (forget the name now) and have him turn into a pumpkin.

But the right move, for this team, right now, is to swing as hard for the fences as it can. There's no next year really with this walking hospital of aging players. It may or may not come off. But it's the right move.

I'm all for swinging for the fence, if that's even ann option. Takes two to get a trade done.

I got no problem giving up premium picks for young studs that are part of the picture. I'm not trading a 2nd for say Trey Hendrickson.

To me there are Options out there
Offensive Weapon : Jonathan Taylor - successor of CMC
WR: George Pickens
Pass-Rusher: Khalil Mack / Josh Sweat / Will McDonald

In an extreme Scenario, if i take out 1st, 2nd and 5th from next year, I should be able to get Tylor (first), Pickens (second), any of the rushers (5th).

In the draft, i have my 3rd, a 6th and a 7th.

But my oh my, who wants to Stop an Offense with
QB Purdy
RB Taylor
TE Kittle
SLOT CMC
WR Evans
WR Pickens

Our Defense having Buckner/Osa in the middle and Mack/Bosa setting the Edges and Rushing the Passer?

EDIT: Albert Haynesworth. Damn that memory - I'm getting old.
