If we land outside of the top 10, it may not be a 100% given QB is the pick.

Typical Clemson product.

Dude this isn't NCAA basketball.

That would be so freaking hilarious 6-11 and division winners!!!! The NFL would immediately ditch division winner model and take the 7 best records in each conference. It would be known as the Panther effect.

Yep, I forgot. Levis ahead of Young?

Crazy, but another win or two and we are squarely in Levis territory. The Saints might be tanking better than us for Stroud/Young.

I still stand by Hubbard sucking. On the TD run, Ickey perfectly walled off the end of the line and the LB got caught cheating up for an inside run and ruined his angle. If someone can screenshot it, that entire side of the field was wide open and Hubbard only had break a diving arm tackle by said LB with a bad angle.

Why is it Jackson is always hurt after giving up a big play?

Can we trade Hubbard for a 7th in 2027? Dude runs with no vision and timidness.

Missing our 6th this year, so that may be what we are asking.

Jut hopeful and it could happen (Philly) but yeah, likely split between the 2023 and 2024 draft. If it did happen, though?!?! I take a 3 day vacation for the draft and throw a party!

But if we deal Burns we can get TWO (at minimum) players on rookie deals. I like Burns, but he's no Reggie White. He's a good pass rusher, but I wouldn't put him in the elite category. If Burns was elite, then not even two players could replace him. I understand the cap guru's play with the numbers to find a way to keep guys on the roster even when the cap is tight and for the long term. Simply put if the best and final offer for Burns Fitts received was only a first and nothing else, I wouldn't be arguing this point. Burns would stay. It would be swapping a former first for a current first without the experience. Nabbing TWO impact players (at minimum) and only losing one just makes too much sense.

Either Spotrac or OTC, but our offensive offense is costing us $81.7 million currently

A new deal for Burns would be a cap burden for years to come. This is just making more and more sense to me. We already seen the reports that a team (probably Philly) was willing to deal the two firsts. Two things we desperately need going into next year is cap room and to stockpile draft picks. Dealing Burns provides both of those in not a little, but in a MAJOR way.

Also, Burn is in line for a HUGE payday and by trading him we free up MUCH needed cap room for next year. The more I think about this, the more it needs to happen.

Man, I hope Fitts is holding on for the pot to sweeten a bit. If we can land two first and like a third? At that point Burns would have to go. We'd have THREE firsts, TWO seconds, TWO thirds. That's SEVEN picks in the first 3 rounds. It would almost be stupid not to ship Burns at that point.

I'd take the RB with the 3rd rounder. Gotta get QB, TE and MLB with those first three picks. I'm just now starting to look at them, but the kid out of Illinois, Chase Brown, looks like a CMC clone. Haven't seen enough film of him yet to judge his hands in the passing game, but the same size, same shiftiness and same downhill burst in what clips I've seen.

Is it wrong I've already started simulations, lol????

Untouchables for me: Ickey, Moore (contract mainly), Brown, Chinn and Horn. I would say Burns, but if he can net us two first rounders? Any less than that and Burns is off limits too.

Not a snowball's change in hell. Not unless he get's hurt.

Didn't like his extension. He's continuously banged up, a shoestring duster and gambles too much thinking his speed can bail him out. The only other DB I'd part ways with I'd Henderson. I'd take a 6th for him right now.

With our first four picks, we HAVE to come away with QB, TE, ILB and RB. The only negotiable position is RB, that could be DE instead. We need our defensive general, so Mike LB is imperative. If anyone questions that we need a TE at this point, they are essentially blind. QB? Well..blind, dumb and probably has never seen a snap of football in their life if anyone thinks that's not a need for the Panthers.

Man I would love another first rounder though. I can't stand the thought of losing out on Mayer.

We need a stud MLB in the draft. Shaq needs to be out of the picture. Luvu will the be veteran presence. My top 3 targets are QB, TE and MLB. Now that we have a second 2nd rounder, I'd like a bookend to Burns.

I valued them a little high, but it remains to be seen where the 49ers actually land. I'm not sure they are instant Super Bowl contenders.
