BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~86 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~103
ANALYSIS: The 49ers have moved on from Jimmy G this season, with second-year QB Trey Lance taking over under center. It's not hyperbole to say that Trey Lance has the skill set that could lead him to an overall QB1 finish this season.
In the passing game, Lance has a huge arm and two really good receivers who can take advantage of that arm in Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk. He also has George Kittle to make plays over the middle and a reliable fullback in Kyle Juszczyk for check downs. Lance should be able to keep the ball moving in the air.
Then there's his rushing ability. Having a QB who can run is a cheat code and Lance...well, he can run. In Lance's one full season as the starting QB at North Dakota State — which, by the way, was a season when he threw 28 touchdowns and zero picks — he ran the ball 169 times, finishing with 1,100 yards and 14 touchdowns.
Last year, Lance saw action in some packages, running 38 times for 168 yards and a score. His arm strength, accuracy, and legs are going to make him such a dangerous player in this league. If you load up at RB and WR early, but still want a QB with elite rushing upside, draft Trey Lance with confidence in rounds 8-10 and go win your league!
