It was ridiculously Jerry.
Hoodwinked

The real focus should have been how the 49ers and mediot draft pundits could possibly have been so stupid as to have rated Trey Lance as a top five pick in the first place.

Instead it became how the 49ers hoodwinked Jones and got some value for a player who shouldn't be in the NFL

You should always be skeptical of a player that a team gave up premium draft picks to take that wants to dump them while they are still on their rookie deals. See Mingo and Lance.

Not saying those players are always trash but generally there is a pretty good reason why the team that gave up all the resources to get them and still has them on a cheap deal is so eager to get rid of them.

Part of me thinks they're lying about that. Even for them it'd be pretty crazy if they have no idea what they are thinking about doing.
No, I'm sure they sort of have a plan. I just don't trust that the plan isn't to sit on their ass and see what others do.

Hopefully Sunday's game won't influence them either way, but these are the Joneses we're talking about.

Here's why I have 0 respect for the Skins winning 11, maybe even 12 games, and expect them to max out next season at about 8 or 9 wins depending on what happens in FA and the draft:

-2 wins vs. Giants (currently 3-13 and 4th in the draft): in the first game the Giants lost their kicker early, had to go for 2 and 4th down's all game because they had nobody to kick XP's, and Nabers dropped a wide open 4th down conversion with about 2 minutes left that would've iced the game
-1 win vs. Titans (currently 3-13 and 3rd in the draft)
-1 win vs. Browns (finished 3-14 and will end up with a top 4 pick)
-1 win vs. Panthers (currently 4-12 and 6th in the draft)
-1 win vs. Bears (currently 4-12 and 9th in the draft, won due to a miracle hail mary)
-1 win vs. Saints (currently 5-11 and 10th in the draft, were a last second 2-point conversion away from losing to Spencer Rattler who has looked like an XFL QB in the two games afterwards)
-1 win vs. Eagles after Hurts went out with a concussion on like the second drive, looked to be cruising for a blowout as the Eagles were up 14-3 when Hurts went out, and despite all that the Eagles were set to ice it when Devonta Smith dropped a wide open 5-yard slant with about 2 minutes left that he probably catches 998 times out of 1,000

That's 7 wins against the literal 10 worst teams in the league, including one off a hail mary, and another because a starting QB went out early in a game that looked like it'd be a blowout.

Their only somewhat respectable wins were against the Cardinals who will finish below .500, the Bengals early in the year who might finish 9-8, and the Falcons with Penix making his 2nd career start, and their backup kicker coming up about 2 yards short of a walk-off winner.

Based on the eye test they look like a 8ish win team who has had a ridiculously soft schedule (literally 31st SoS) and an extreme run of luck.
