San Francisco and Justin Fields at No. 3 overall
What Davis says
“The Niners have been widely linked to Alabama QB Mac Jones almost from the moment they acquired the No. 3 selection from Miami last month for a package that included three first-rounders. And, sure, maybe Jones could run this offense better than incumbent Jimmy Garoppolo and on par with former Kyle Shanahan disciples like Matt Schaub, Kirk Cousins and 2016 league MVP Matt Ryan. But who’s trading three Round 1 selections for those guys, none consistently able to excel outside the framework of this offense? Fields, who completed better than 68% of his collegiate throws (including 70.2% in 2020), could provide the precision Shanahan’s scheme demands while adding mobility that could take it to another level. Don’t forget how well Robert Griffin III fared during his 2012 offensive rookie of the year campaign under Shanahan in Washington.”
