1. Even though they've traded multiple first round selections, they're quietly stockpiling picks. They have nine picks this year and eight picks next year, and that's before they trade the NFL's #9 ranked QB.* They lack a first round selection, but have one each in rounds two through six, and three seventh round selections. Garoppolo will bring (my guess) a fourth round selection this year and a third rounder next year. That's assuming no other players are involved in the trade. And if the Niners lose more coaches and/or more players, they'll pick up more picks:

2. Daniel Jeremiah thinks the draft is so deep with starters that it doesn't matter that the Niners don't have a first round pick:

3. QB Coach Rich Scangarello leaves for Kentucky as their new OC.

4. John Lynch turned down a broadcasting job. This time.

* As measured by quarterback rating
QB ratings are misleading. Off the top of my head and in no particular order
Rodgers
Stafford
Murray
Wilson
Prescott
Cousins (close)
Carr
Mahomes
Allen
Burrows
Jackson
Ryan
Herbert
Tannehill
That doesn’t take into account the young QB’s. like Lawrence, Fields, Wilson, Jones, Tua
Those are...?
Better than Garrapolo.

It's Rob Manfred who keeps saying this, specifically citing a recent supposed study by investment bankers.

Think about that for a second - the Commissioner of a sport saying his product is a bad investment. I realize it’s pure bullish-t. But still. No one believes anything that clown utters anyway. Worst Commissioner since Bowie Kuhn.
As an example, Johnson et al bought the Giants in ‘93 for 100 Million. Obviously building* the park was a major expenditure. But still - today they are valued at 3.1 Billion. According to one source, Giants were worth 335 Million in 2002. Pretty decent jump in 20 years. By contrast, I used a historical stock calculator. 335 million in ‘02 invested in market brings 1.6 Billion.
