Kyle and John are in a luxurious position, Hoyer's gaurantees are paper thin, and Hoyer could crack to pieces under pressures of 2018.
CJ knows he has nothing to lose, and this sort of confidence could have him starting in week six (aka Hoyer's statistical cut-off point per season). CJ is gonna reunite the families, and take the grove back!
I think you, or another poster said something similar. Something like, Hoyer, BeatHard, and Mullins as 1, 2, 3 going into the regular season and Barkley would be released if all goes well with BeatHard. And next year Kirk Cousin? If we had something like Cousin's and BeatHard, wouldn't that be something. Then again, 2nd year - if BeatHard does well, do we really need Kirk? Talk about a very deep position if we had those two.
Regardless of how each Qb plays out, the beauty of this is the way prior to FA and draft, that Kyle and John positioned us. They decided no #1 FR QB so bang, right off the bat get the best QB out there who knows WCO...and kyle. That's not only Hoyer, but a backup in Barkeley. Then we get CJ by moving up 4 slots into end of rd 3, so we are sure to get him. Now we finally have a developmental POTENTIAL FR QB in the wings, who is officially in training. We also have mullens. Then more importantly, we have a great relationship of Kyle wiht the one best QB out there who PROBABLY will come available during FA in 2018. Relationship is already established, and current owner is a horse's patoot, who desperately does NOT want Cousins to come here. Point is things have been set in play to get him here if possible. And we have scads of money to pull it off, way more than WASH.
Looking at it like that, here's a question. Just exactly how could kyle/john set us up to be in a better position to acquire Cousins than what has happened to this point? For a guy we couldn't sign this yr, we surely have been put in the catbird's seat to get the 1 guy who would give us instant credibility as far as a playoff team goes. And John has been working like crazy to get the balance of the team needed in place so when Cousins does get here, the O already knows the WCO. I mean just how much more could a HC and GM do to get us in the maximal position to land Cousins?
And more importantly, what else could John have done to have us get the QB we need for a playoff run? Kyle and john have approached this by every avenue available out there...and had decided on it way before FA started. No matter what you think of our HC and GM, they have done the best job possible in getting us in the best position to land our FR QB next yr. Meantime, if Hoyer, or CJ ends up being "THE" guy, well , they have that angle taken care of also.
Their one best move? Not falling for Trubs or anyone else in rd 1 or 2 as the potential FR QB. It may happen for CHI, but i sincerely doubt it. Kudos to our HC /GM and their handling of the FR QB position. And until next yr rolls around , no one will know which direction we go. But as for being placed in the one best position to go one of 4 different ways... that was a work of art by our HC & GM.
If they pass on someone better than Beathard or Cousins, it will be on them.
A work of art would be having a FQB or potential FQB on the roster. Right now the 49ers are just a team without a decent QB.
