This all presumes the 49ers were set on taking a quarterback in the first round.
The Los Angeles Rams made a bold move on Thursday, trading a haul of picks to climb from No. 15 to No. 1 in the 2016 NFL Draft. They are expected to draft a quarterback with that pick, and it could mean both Jared Goff and Carson Wentz are gone in the first two picks.
The San Francisco 49ers are impacted given that they are picking No. 7, but how they are impacted is up for debate. ESPN's John Clayton looked at winners and losers from the trade, and he decided the 49ers and Colin Kaepernick are among the losers.
