(Opinion) Trey Lance To The Dolphins?

[Charlie Rivers]

Lance was once a highly-touted NFL prospect, coming into the 2021 NFL Draft as a redshirt-sophomore from the University of North Dakota. That season the 49ers made Lance the third overall pick, with the idea that he would come in and start right away, giving them a young, athletic face of the franchise.

What?

Nope. Didnt think he should of been as hyped up as he was coming out of college, he didnt do much in school either. People just enamored with the running ability and his big arm, but hes lacking football IQ.

I'd consider picking him up off of waivers, but I wouldnt sink any assets into trading for him.

I think, could be wrong, McDaniel was still a part of the SF team when they were scouting this kid, he might want to take a look at him.

He was in the Waddle draft, which was when Flores was still here, so McDaniel was still in SF, so very likely had some input in the drafting of Lance. He is so inexperienced but at least he has physical tools that are upper-level. Whether he puts it all together who knows. A lot more upside than Thompson or White.

Not sure if he’s legit or not BUT he’s better than our current backups

I got this nagging feeling that Lance is going to be reeled in by the Dolphins...just a feeling.

Go Fins!!

Who knows......McD clearly has some history with Lance from SF, but they also moved on from him pretty quickly.

I would think you would want more of a proven commodity at the backup spot and not a project, but if they feel like Thompson and White aren't cutting it, anything is possible....

 

[EasyRider]

Just say no

Would be comical to fleece the 9er's over with that 3rd pick swap. Then end up with that 3rd overall pick a few years later. Only reason I would do it.

How so? Because he can run?

 

[Hargitt01]

So Dallas won't keep both Rush & Lance?

 

[Scotty_P]

A team that is extremely well coached and turned Brock Purdy in to a star, cast him off after investing the #3 pick in him.

So why are we talking about him??

 

[mrhankey81701]

Its an interesting pick up idea. Would definitely prefer Lance over Skylar Thompson. That said I'm not trading a fifth (or whatever it would cost) for Lance. If he's put on waivers/released I would try to pick him up.
