That makes less sense for my money.They are tearing their team apart anyway. I don't see the point of having a mid-level $55 million AAV QB on a team that has been torn apart. It will make it harder for them to have the money to rebuild and by the time they do rebuild he might not be the QB anyway.
Personally, if I were them I'd look for a young vet free agent or trade for a young vet like Malik Willis or Milton. Then build the team while having more money. But, yes, worst case scenario I'd sign Garoppolo, Flacco, or even Winston before giving Purdy that money for that long.
This made me think….That makes less sense for my money.
As simple and unreasonable as it may sound, the name of the game is find your QB. And the state of the market means that when you do, if you can win with him (even if he's not all that great), you eventually have to pay the market rate. There's not really a scenario where you don't keep a guy and end up paying him that rate at some point. He's come due and yes, he probably won't live up to the deal, but he won't be alone in that.
Throwing Purdy away by choice, to flail around hoping one of Willis, Milton etc. turn out to be good enough, just significantly lowers your chances of success in the short to medium term, and even if one of them pans out, by that point you'll end up having to pay *them* the market rate, which by that point will probably be $65m+...
I think if you could hit on a way to keep identifying and recycling young, effective QBs that regularly, the NFL would be at your feet.Anyhow, if so, what if a team chose to always roll the dice and go with recently drafted QB’s only to trade or cut them when the bill came due? As it allows so much all over the roster by having a rookie qb on a rookie deal?
Think they got Purdy as the last pick in the draft too…..nothing special but a smart guy who can run the offense the way the coach wants.
I know it would be very very tricky but a fun thought for me.
Shanahan is a choke artistCan we bring Shanahan with him?
Purdy's counting stats fell off a good bit in 2024, but his efficiency stats (Yds/Att, Passing Rate, QBR, etc.) only dropped from "historic" to "rock solid".I would think about it if Purdy had followed up his 2023 season with similar play in 2024. But his stats fell off big time, in part due to a lack of weapons.
That makes less sense for my money.

I remember when this was talked about with Stafford until he joined the Rams.Purdy = Fool’s gold.
San Francisco (when they inevitably pay him) will be making a huge mistake that will put them in the no man’s land of just good enough to lose in the playoffs every year.
EDIT: Pretty much the exact point made in the post above mine, it turns out
You got it. You can have Purdy. I’ll take Stafford.I remember when this was talked about with Stafford until he joined the Rams.
