OK. Let's list the QBs of the NFC West. Russ Wilson, Matt Stafford, Kyler Murray, Jimmy G. Where does Jimmy G fall in that group? Dead last. Jimmy G is on his way to becoming Andy Dalton. The QB you're stuck with, but not really the one you want. Right or wrong, McVay and Snead felt the same way about Goff. So the Rams made a bold move to upgrade.

So in response the Niners are forced into making a bold move to counter, and to try and catch up with their 3 NFC West competitors at the QB position. Never easy and it involves risk. And drafting a QB high, and using a lot of draft capital to get there, is the riskiest of business. But, what else were they going to do when Watson took a nose dive off the high board onto concrete.
