And then less than a decade later we screwed up again and traded away the opportunity to draft Brett Favre...Fun fact: the Niners drafted Montana with a pick that we traded them. We traded the pick along with safety Bob Jury to move up for LB Michael Jackson.
Maybe not so fun of a fact.
The only trade I'm seeing from that draft was in the late 2nd after Favre was taken. Definitely screwed up drafting a different QB 17 picks before him. McGwire did have much better college stats than Favre though.And then less than a decade later we screwed up again and traded away the opportunity to draft Brett Favre...
You're correct. Just a flat out whiffThe only trade I'm seeing from that draft was in the late 2nd after Favre was taken. Definitely screwed up drafting a different QB 17 picks before him. McGwire did have much better college stats than Favre though.
I believe the Falcons drafted Favre and then gave up on him after his rookie year. Then traded him to the Packers.The only trade I'm seeing from that draft was in the late 2nd after Favre was taken.

H O L Y SHITTTTLove Joe. Great find.
But I'll be damned if Mr Montana isnt starting to look like Hoggle from The Labyrinth in his golden years.

Hahahahahaha!!!!!I Love Joe Montana! But his nose, reminds of the Steve Martin joke: Don't let that guy get close to my cocaine!
From the movie Roxanne:
C.D. Bales: [challenged to think of twenty jokes better than "Big Nose"]
Let's start with... Obvious: 'scuse me, is that your nose or did a bus park on your face?
Meteorological: everybody take cover, she's going to blow!
Fashionable: you know, you could de-emphasize your nose if you wore something larger, like... Wyoming.
Personal: well, here we are, just the three of us.
Punctual: all right, Delbman, your nose was on time but YOU were fifteen minutes late!
Envious: Ooooh, I wish I were you! Gosh, to be able to smell your own ear! Naughty: uh, pardon me, sir, some of the ladies have asked if you wouldn't mind putting that thing away.
Philosophical: you know, it's not the size of a nose that's important, it's what's IN IT that matters.
Humorous: laugh and the world laughs with you. Sneeze, and it's goodbye, Seattle! Commercial: hi, I'm Earl Scheib, and I can paint that nose for $39.95!
Polite: uh, would you mind not bobbing your head? The, uh, orchestra keeps changing tempo
You just described Russell Wilson, as well and even more egregious, Tom BradyTo me, Joe was a stud when there weren't too many to be had back in those days. Far and few between. Sitting there in the 3rd round being passed over multiple times by every team. Always blows the mind, doesn't it. Even San Fran, you think they would have waited til the 3rd if they knew what they were getting?
Of course, Walsh deserves a lot of credit also. Who knows how it would have turned out without him.
Additional Fun fact: the Dallas Cowboys were the original owner of that draft pick and the Seahawks got the pick as part of the Tony Dorsett trade. On top of that the Seahawks were considering hiring Bill Walsh as their first head coach, but Paul Brown sandbagged him.Fun fact: the Niners drafted Montana with a pick that we traded them. We traded the pick along with safety Bob Jury to move up for LB Michael Jackson.
