Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Los Angeles Rams

Yeah, it certainly isn't ideal unless the pick makes it worth it. Would have to be a 2nd at least for me. I think he'd agree since he'd have the chance to be a starter rather than sitting on our bench.

Agreed

I think Washington would be an ideal fit.

With what money? That's the problem JG is making the 5th highest salary at QB in 2021. The team trading for him (which he has to agree too) then takes on that cap hit the rest of the year.

Yeah, I don't see Jimmy going anywhere this year. He'll be competing for his job all summer.

At that point you've decided Lance is gonna be the starter…so you then cut him and save $24M or over $50M for 2022…that's more money saved moving off one player than anyone else in the NFL! go swap day 3 picks for Minshew I don't care, he's a top end backup making like $500K the next two yrs.

we have literally all the leverage. No one is paying him $26M if cut, no one is paying him $15M if he's cut…there is simply no money available for him right now in the market. Teams have their QB rooms setup. He still gets top 12 money and now is a FA in 2022. He gets to determine his future not allow SF to trade him to whomever we want. I mean s**t throw in his incentives to get some cash back, I don't care…he shouldn't be making the money he's making.

I got everyone saying Jimmy starts until he gets hurt, wait so people assume he's gonna get hurt and you STILL want to pay him the 5th most cash in the league?! WTF are we doing here? That's like saying I'm gonna pay $100k for a used KIA that you KNOW is gonna breakdown.

Everything you been saying is 💯 No idea how some think Jimmy has any "leverage" if they ask him to take a pay cut, if he says no they can simply cut his ass, save all but what 2mil cap hit? (Could be wrong) And Jimmy is left looking for someplace to compete for the starting gig, already behind in the process at this point, on a salary that is very likely less than what the 49ers asked him to take a pay cut too.

There's options out there if we really want to get rid of him if we try to force a pay cut and he doesn't accept

odd are he's not going anywhere. so no need to worry about cost

No there really isn't options if Jimmy isn't gonna take a pay cut. He's also got to agree to the trade.

lSaints is a great option for Jimmy.. and why wouldn't he want to be under SP ?

Saints QBs lol
Ian Brook
Trevor Seimian
Taysom Hill
Jamies

Hill has the largest contract out of those guys. We could swap those guys easily.

Still think paying 26m to Jimmy is absurd and that money should be trimmed by half at least

Tingling penis telling you this Mayo?

No, just going by my other head.

does mayo come out of his penis you think?

You tell us!

She totally gushed and he had that smirk on his face before saying a word that he was going to go in for the kill.

Absolutely. People here act like Jimmy would have 10 teams immediately trying to sign him as a franchise QB if we were to cut him. The reality is that nobody will want him for more than $5 million on a one year deal at the most. He's Case Keenum with an injury problem. We'd be doing him a favor by asking him to only take a $10 million paycut instead of just cutting him outright. Even with a paycut, he'll probably make more this year with us than he will for the entire rest of his career.

All of this is correct, but I'm looking at this as if I were KS or Lynch. We've seen twice what's happened when Jimmy went down. We had really bad seasons.

From what KS said, or maybe it was Lynch, that they both talked to Jed and Jed was fine with paying that kind of money for Jimmy and Trey this year.

That tells me that KS and Lynch don't want another repeat of last year, or two years ago. Sure their job might still be safe, but it's gonna be on them if they get rid of Jimmy and Trey either doesn't look that good year 1 or gets injured.

I'm sure someone like Parag is thinking more like a fan would (would be nice to have that much extra cap rolled into next year) but you know coaches, GMs, are always for the most part in win now mode. This season needs to be a success and I think having both QBs on the roster makes that more likely.

if you take feelings and emotion out, it's pretty clear for this year

Go in with QB depth

Umm no. It's not just emotions or feelings. It would be like an extra 20 mil in cap we can have next season. So I definitely understand where posters like NY are coming from. I just rather go into the season knowing we're safe with 2 QBs. The only way I would get rid of Jimmy before week 1 is we get a solid offer for him, like a 1st round pick.

it is emotions as the 49ers are not worried about it. They are still signing players and jimmy's contract has no effect

I agree with this and I think NY does too, but his whole point is that we can still go in with QB depth (Jimmy) but at a much cheaper costs and rightfully so. He is not a top 5 QB and shouldn't be paid like one, especially if at some point this season Trey takes the job, or even worse Jimmy is Jimmy and gets hurt again. AB said week one that 26 million is locked in. A 26 million dollar backup riding the pine is just not good business. Getting some of that money back can help depth elsewhere, we all know things happen throughout the season and it's better to have more flexibility if/when it does.
