Settling in at 3 should guarantee them Jones, as all the pre-draft buzz has him nowhere near the top of the draft.

More and more buzz about 49ers and Jones. Shanahan and crew heading to Bama for their pro day tomorrow.
Could be a huge smoke screen .... or maybe not.

It should probably be said Shanahan is alluding to the 49ers not wanting other teams to be readily aware they were trying to move up way up the board before their blockbuster trade was done.
Either way, there appears to be a growing amount of buzz regarding the potential for the 49ers to make Jones the third overall pick.
Chris Simms of NBC Sports suggested Jones could be an ideal fit for Shanahan’s system in San Francisco:
