This kind of hints to me that the Jets will take a QB at 2. You have to think the 49ers offered that deal to the Jets and they said no.
The Saleh connection makes me wonder if the Jets prefer Justin Fields and that allowed for the 49ers to move up to get Wilson.

Now I still think Wilson is going #2 instead, but it makes you think since they've loved him for a long time.

I think Fields with Shanahan will be a problem as well though.

Edit: Appears to be Lance I guess.

Trey Lance over Fields. Lance is way more developed and has just as much potential.

terrible thought:

is this move 1 on a 2 move plan to get Deshaun Watson?

#3 allows the Texans to get their QBOF. now throw #3 + a player or two to get Watson?

I like it. Takes them out of competition with us and probably only nets them the 3rd best QB in the draft. I'll take it.

To clarify. Trey Lance was asked to do significantly more NFL things as a QB at North Dakota than Justin Fields was asked at Ohio St.
Makes sense as he has better feet in the pocket than Fields as well.

I still think if Fields ever processes info quickly could be really great. Big if though.
