    Ideal draft scenario.

    My more realistic dream scenario would be: Trade #1 pick to the Raiders who want Bosa because edge rusher is their biggest weakness by far. 49er trust their QB enough to pick yet another interior DL in Quinnen Williams. Jets can't pass on Josh Allen who fits their scheme and need perfectly...

    Cardinals signing DT Darius Philon

    Still young and has been very productive for an interior DL. Not just the 8 sacks he had over the last couple seasons, but last season alone he was credited with 15 QB pressures. Remember him from a few plays on TV and he looks very compact, almost like Aaron Donald. Looks like a good interior...

    Nitpicking Nick Bosa

    Who knows. Can he get in better shape so that you don't have to pull him off the field so often? Will he stay in shape once he has some success? Those are questions you have to ask for any 1st round DT, let alone a potential 1st overall DT. Can he destroy an offensive gameplan? Because that's...

    Flexibility

    It's a good point, but Murray isn't gonna cost much more than Rosen. In case we draft Murray, Rosen will most likely be off our books by next season. This season I don't care about cap ramifications, because we have enough space to work with and all of the few building blocks we have are under...

    Cards meeting today (3/19) in OK with Murray

    Bucky Brooks has historically always undervalued the QB position. He is a good scout. But if Brooks would be a GM, his franchise would never draft a QB because some DB from a big college would be on the board who is running 4.4 and a solid tackler. The hardcore scout Brooks is, he would never...

    Cards meeting today (3/19) in OK with Murray

    I think it's more about comparing their arm talent and what Cutler made out of it. Cutler, probably even more so than Rosen, had a big arm and could make all the throws in the world. However, he made too many crucial mistakes, too many missed opportunities on easy throws. Ultimately, he still...

    Is Keim a fool by showing his hand so early?

    Nobody could know. But while Baker and Allen were big risers in the predraft process, Rosen slid. Darnold was highly rated from the start. Everybody knew we needed a QB desperately. Bradford, who couldn't even walk properly the last time he played for the Vikings, on a 1 year deal and Mike...

    Cards meeting today (3/19) in OK with Murray

    It all comes down to if we have rated Murray higher than Rosen. If so, we can already run to the podium. Given his great accuracy, effortless release and once in a generation athletic ability for the QB position along with the unteachable feel to use it, it's honestly hard to see Murray being...

    Ed Oliver

    Ed Oliver with the #13 pick we get from Miami for Rosen would be great value.

    The Sunk Cost Fallacy

    If Murray completes 60% of his passes and throws more TDs than INTs in his rookie season, nobody on this forum will know who Josh Rosen was a year from now. Because I don't see Josh Rosen walking into Miami, Washington or New York and play very well in his first year, that's if he doesn't have...

    Is Keim a fool by showing his hand so early?

    Or Keim is really good at playing mind games and is driving up the value of the 1st overall pick, having his eyes set on Bosa or Quinnen for quite some time already. If an offer is blowing him away because one team totally falls in love with Murray, Keim can get a huge haul. In case the Raiders...

    Cards meeting today (3/19) in OK with Murray

    I don't understand the media ignoring the 49ers need to find a spark for their franchise. Garopolo isn't bad. But after looking like a legit franchise QB when he was aquired from the Pats midseason, he didn't look good after a full offseason. It's a limited sample size, I know. But the torn ACL...

    Cards meeting today (3/19) in OK with Murray

    Btw the Murray to 49ers rumors can only help us. If we ultimately take Murray, it's a moot point. But if we are looking to maximize the value of the 1st overall pick, this is the perfect scenario. What's better than just acting like we are very interested into Murray with the #1 pick? The...

    Cards meeting today (3/19) in OK with Murray

    Absolutely. Murray is a perfect fit for Shanahan and would finally be something for the 9ers fan base to get excited about. They drafted what 4 or 5 DL with the 1st round picks they recently had, with every single one of them either being a bust or not living up to expectations. Their fan base...

    Cardinal decisions

    Absolutely. I've made this point twice and I think it did came through as sarcastic, while I meant it for real! Remember Jimmy Garopolo suffered a torn ACL and isn't young anymore. He cost them a 2nd round pick, most guarantees are already paid. On the flip side, Murray's mobility would make...

    The Depth on the Defensive Line is a Huge Concern

    Lots of good DL out there in free agency. This is due to the draft being loaded with DL. I'm sure we will get some DL help one way or another. Being back in a 3-4 base defense also puts less emphasis on DL than it would be in the 4-3. Space eaters can be found in the mid and late rounds as well.

    Especially when he already knows that he's most likely end up being the 1st overall pick.

    Keim is also on record saying that anything that's said in the months leading up to the draft is ******** :D

    Cards meeting today (3/19) in OK with Murray

    The hole would be even bigger if things aren't going well and Murray is still on our books. I'd rather see him leaving for baseball than sucking for us. Or even worse, Murray showing flashes so that you still pay him after his rookie contract is up, like Miami payed Tannehill or the Jags payed...

    Cardinal decisions

    We botched it big-time to find a future QB during the Palmer era. Understandable since we were contenders, but the smart move all along would've been to find a Palmer successor in the 2017 draft, not even knowing that Mahomes and Watson will look great. We were too passive to get either of the...

    Cardinal decisions

    What hasn't been discussed at all is that MB/SK didn't think a year ago that they would hold the 1st overall pick in 2019, along with a new HC in charge. Remember BA officially "retired", so this wasn't the usual coaching hire that happens after you fire the coach at the end of a 3-13 season...

    Cardinal decisions

    But will Rosen get the shot to be in one system long enough, or have a strong supporting cast? Many similar talented QB have failed because they were put into bad positions. Some were labeled as damaged goods immediately, some got a fresh start or two, hence even three or four if somebody still...

    Cardinal decisions

    I disagree. If Murray grades out just 10% higher than Rosen, it's no question that we have to go with Murray. Of course, if you think Murray grades out just like Rosen, it would dumb to ditch Rosen just for the fun of it. But even in this case, we don't know what KK's offense will exactly look...

    Giants feel Ohio State QB Dwayne Haskins "doesn't fit" with the team.

    In case of us picking Murray 1st overall, the sooner Haskins goes off the board the better for us. Argument could be made for Haskins to be a better prospect than Rosen (which I don't think btw), but Lock and Jones are without a doubt well below Rosen as prospects. I'm looking at Miami...

    Cardinal decisions

    I'm looking at Miami @13, Redskins @15 and Giants @17 when it comes to potentially trading Rosen. All these teams need a young franchise QB to build around. Of course Cards FO has to deny all offers for Rosen right now. It's way too early, a lot can happen until the draft, and right now I...
