What history says about 49ers picking third QB in NFL draft

With the No. 3 overall pick of the 2021 NFL Draft, the 49ers are set to select the quarterback of their future. With all signs pointing to the Jacksonville Jaguars and the New York Jets selecting quarterbacks with the No. 1 and 2 picks in the draft, the 49ers will have a chance to take the third. Only twice in NFL history have quarterbacks been taken consecutively as the top three picks of an NFL draft.
