No "ifs" about it - Young should have been the QB traded - But, here is the rest of the story.
Sensing the end was near for the Greatest of all Time with 5 going on 6 rings, we would have drafted the QB steal of the '93 draft, Mark Brunell, with our 5th-round, 116th pick instead of drafting Artie Smith (who?) and continued our playoff prowess.
Brunell, now with the 49ers gets over the hump winning at least one ring and is voted to nine pro-bowls on his way to a HOF induction.
Thus, if we had traded, instead of keeping perennial playoff pant-shitter Steve Young, we would have had 7 Rings (6 by Joe), AND back-to-back HOF QB's.
Instead we got 5 Rings, back-to-back HOF QB's and a pair of play-off pants full of shit! But, hey, I'm not bitter.
