  1. Fields + Harrison Jr. and Laiatu Latu

  2. Williams or Maye and Latu

  3. Harrison Jr. and JJ McCarthy + Harbaugh

  4. Another option

I’d be torn between options 2 and 3, personally. I think Harbaugh would restore respectability to the organization and might be enticed by the opportunity to continue coaching McCarthy, who is still really young and moldable. It’s easy to forget the kid isn’t even 21 yet and can still add a lot of mass to his frame. Personally, I’m ready to move on from Fields and start over, too.

  1. The best way to create a durable championship window is to acquire a SB-caliber QB as one of the last pieces of the rebuild. Maximize the rookie contract and give the QB a chance to develop into the god-tier while on their rookie deal, so that when they resign they won't need as complete of a roster.

The best course of action is to resign Fields at a very reasonable number, and then incubate opportunities once you have a solid line, weapons, defense and Fields as the QB bridge if we draft one.
