- Niners nab No 3 pick from Dolphins, who trade No 12 to Eagles
- San Francisco in position to draft rookie quarterback after trade
The San Francisco 49ers have made a big move to grab their quarterback of the future by trading up with Miami for the No 3 pick in next month’s draft.
Two people familiar with the deal say the Niners are trading their No 12 pick along with first-round picks in 2022 and 2023 and their compensatory third-rounder in 2022 to get the third overall pick. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal hadn’t been announced.
