Trey Lance appears to be the odd man out in San Francisco. Minnesota (+300) is the betting favorite to land Lance, with Atlanta (+400) and Los Angeles (+400) right behind.
When the San Francisco 49ers selected Trey Lance with the third overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, many thought it was a reach. Boy, were they right!
Lance had outstanding numbers in his first full season as the starter for North Dakota State. He led the team to a 16-0 record while throwing for 2,786 yards and 28 touchdowns. He also ran for 1,110 yards and 14 scores.The problem was Lance was doing it against second-tier college teams in the FCS. While we'll never know what Lance would have been capable of at the FBS level, the 49ers thought they'd seen enough talent in the young QB to draft him at No.
Lance has started a total of four games for the 49ers, completing 56 of 102 passes for five touchdowns and three interceptions. It's been a disaster. He's never looked comfortable, and the 49ers have never trusted him enough to allow him to at least fight for the starting job.
