But then he heard that Atlanta wants Jones to understudy under Ryan and was going to pick him at 4, and Jones is the only qb Atl is interested in this year. So SF traded up to 3 to make sure he gets his man. Now if the powers that be change Shannahan's mind(unlikely) and SF gets smebody else, Then Atlanta will take Jones. Jones will be 3 or 4 either way. But SF hired the best availabe qb evalutor and qb coach in the world as their head coach in Shannahan. Hard to imagine he doesn't have the final say. And he says Jones.


Where did you read this? Because what you just posted is the first time I have ever heard the Birds were looking at using the #4 pic on Mac Jones.

It came from McShay's source inside the 49ers and is why McShay was the first to change Jones to #3. So in other words, McShay didn't hear it from Atlanta but he trusted his San Fran source enough to change it. And his source said they had to do it because Atlanta was going to get Jones at 4 if they didn't.
