I mean they are picking 3rd and the top 2 are already decided so im not sure what sort of maneuvering is being suggested...they will take who they take and everyone else will still be on the board.

Who is it they are faking out saying they are going Jones but go Fields or Lance instead?
it's a valid point. But then again, we don't know who has been driving the "Jones to SF" bus. I don't think the Niners have, because frankly, they have nothing to gain here. Other teams might have. If, for example, Atlanta wants to shop the 4th pick (and apparently they are interested in moving down), then spreading rumours that Fields might be available at 4 is not a bad play.
