2. player. 42. As of right now, the New England Patriots aren’t going to get that first-rounder plus for Jimmy Garoppolo. And it looks like the San Francisco 49ers are the front-rounds to land a trade for him. It also looks like a second-round pick will be involved in the deal. <p>So the 49ers get their QB as HC Kyle Shanahan had him No. 2 behind Derek Carr in 2014. And they still have their first-round pick to take Myles Garrett, that EDGE the 49ers need. Shanahan hired former Jacksonville Jaguars LB coach Robert Saleh to be his DC.</p> <p>He was with the Jaguars under HC Gus Bradley, who was once the DC of the Seattle Seahawks. That means he’ll be using the 4-3 under with the LEO as the primary pass rusher. With his length, burst, power, moves and athleticism for occasional coverage, the position fits him well.</p> <p>The 49ers have a drafted interior D-lineman of late and Navorro Bowman is still there at LB. Garrett would go in and give the 49ers the one thing that defensive front-seven is missing. And you should not be surprising to see the 49ers make a quick climb up the standings. </p>. EDGE. Texas A&amp;M. Myles Garrett
