I would not trade Bill Belichick for Aaron Rodgers

I said no. [Hard no]. Belichick's got a longer lifespan. He's pretty old. And he's a better proven winner.

This is subjective, but following this take, the Patriots struggled under Belichick without Brady, while Rodgers won another MVP in 2021.

The 49ers created the best smokescreen in NFL draft history

I would not put that past Kyle Shanahan because this is the best smokescreen that I think I've ever seen in the NFL draft [leading people to believe they wanted Mac Jones].

Opinion Football Medium

The Niners did successfully keep their pick secret until the end, with many experts incorrectly predicting Jones to SF at #3.

The 49ers shouldn't have traded up to 3 for Mac Jones if he was available at 15

The point was the 49ers traded a lot to get up to 3, and you shouldn't take a guy at 3 that you could potentially have at 15 like the Patriots got.

Opinion Football Medium Subjective

The 49ers took Trey Lance at 3 and Jones fell to 15, so the value assessment was factually supported by the draft board, though subjective in terms of player quality.

Aaron Rodgers will go to the Broncos

I think [Aaron Rodgers] is going to go to Denver, and it's got to be an awesome life to be a Broncos fan. Because it's like, yeah, you get a couple seasons that are mixed in here and there, but then you just get good quarterbacks that just want to come to you. And Aaron Rodgers sounds like he wants to go there.

Prediction Football Hot

Rodgers did not go to Denver; he stayed with the Packers for two more seasons before being traded to the Jets in 2023.
