49ers favorites to land Stafford

[NAS]

Grant Cohn (@grantcohn) Tweeted:
SOURCE: #49ers have the inside edge to land Matthew Stafford https://t.co/ctB0S7wZLu https://t.co/xWja0KEei6

 

“The source did not say what the 49ers would have to give the Lions to get Stafford, although it’s presumed the 49ers would have to trade at least their first-round pick this year. Nor did the source say whether the 49ers are Stafford’s first choice. He most likely would love their head coach, Kyle Shanahan, plus their star players such as George Kittle, Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk, but probably wouldn’t love the California state taxes.

Still, the 49ers probably would give Stafford his best chance to win the Super Bowl within the next couple years.”

Probably because they are offering their first rounder. Good for them. Let's all pray we don't get into a bidding war.

Agree. I would rather roll with Lance

Sweet!

now Detroit will need a QB unless Garappalo is included in the deal.

I'm guessing Jimmy G is done???

That was made pretty clear when they made Stafford available. 
 

  Hard to imagine a better spot for him to go to. Very good weapons. KS offense. Talented roster. 

[Mr. Scot]

A chance to play in Kyle Shanahan's offense?

I'd take that.

[CashNewton22]

Cool with me.

[Ivan The Awesome]

No one here said we'd want to get into a bidding war for Stafford. I believe that's one thing every one here can agree on. 

 

If the 9ers offer a 1st + more, then good luck to them. Stafford isn't a QB I'd want to spend MULTIPLE picks on.

I'd take Shanahans' word and Albert Breers sources over Grant Cohn,(whoever tf he is) any day.

NESN has been on the "Garoppolo back to New England train for a while" and published something two days ago saying he may be the Pats best option for 2021.  I've read speculation he could go back there in other places, too.

I know Hoodie liked him when they dealt him to San Francisco, and apparently McDaniels is still high on him.  Assuming the feeling is mutual, that would solve the no trade clause.

Stafford makes sense for San Francisco, and vice versa.

I want a team picking before us to go after him, but a team that might otherwise trade up is good as well
