Factoid: Kyle Shanahan

I will be interested to see what the 49ers do with Trey Lance. They coughed up three first-round picks to get him, so presumably they’re pretty confident he can be a difference-making kind of guy.   more »

Trey Lance should be a fun rookie quarterback to monitor. San Francisco gave up two future first-round picks to move up 9 spots to take him, which shows both how much they like him and how ready they are to move on from Jimmy Garoppolo. I think the veteran is off the roster by August, and Lance is a Week 1 starter.   more »
