Kyle Shanahan Presser- Question on QB

[TheWiz]

Question: "Do you look around the league trends as to whats been successful (at the QB position) going forward on Thursday." 

Kyle references QB's like: Josh Allen, Deshaun Watson, Lamar Jackson, Patrick Maholmes. 

"Man, you want to find Drew Brees who can move like Lamar Jackson." 

Sure doesnt sound like they're taking Mac Jones to me.

He was simply saying the ideally you'd have the best of both worlds. If they think that's what Fields is then he'll be the pick.

It could mean that since you can't find a Drew Brees who can move like Lamar Jackson, you take the better QB--Drew Brees.  Perspective is everything.

Moo, you got me thinking.  If they had a pro bowl for professional bowlers, what would you call it?

He answered the question and he was truthful. That is the trend. That doesn't mean that he doesn't want Jones. In fact, about 5 years ago, there wasn't a player like them that was considered a top QB. Not 1. It's a new thing which is why it's called a trend. 5 years ago and Mac Jones would likely be considered the 2nd best QB in this draft or at least the 3rd and it would be almost unanimous. I saw a Dan Patrick show saying that teams that interviewed Mac and gave him some of their plays and discussed their strategies and he aced it. Then they contacted him a month later and he could still recall everything from their first interview, plays, strategies and all. He's a football guru. What he lacks in physical attributes he compensates with elite football IQ. He has the football IQ of a Manning or Brady. YOu can insert him into your offense and he will get it immediately and you will soon be able to open the entire book. He is likely the best QB in the draft in that sense. If Jones goes to San Fran then I predict he will be the top QB in this draft by the end of 2023.

Saw on Twitter just now that Shanny wants Mac and the scouting department wants Lance. Could get interesting there. Not like we haven't seen a similar situation here, thankfully it was a much smaller potential cost.

They have already paid a ransom for the 3rd, they have to get someone who produces or heads will be rolling. I would just love to have the 49ers take Lance and Mac 'slip' to the Falcons. Damn that would be sweet!

Falcons would just pick Fields which would be worse for us

Dude, keep the hope alive. If Shanny wants him at 3, why can't we play him twice a year for another 48 hour?

That makes it clear.  He's trading up for Lawrence.

[Proudiddy]

Or it could be him giving the impression that mobility is super important to him, when in fact, it isn't and they already have locked in on Mac.  Then again, they're rumored to really like Lance, too.
