But that's not really a worry for you is it?

He's completed 52.7-percent of his passes for 647 yards, two touchdowns, three interceptions, and a passer rating of 65.2 on a Super Bowl team. No way to know what he'll do on a below average team like ours.

I just PRAY he's another Gannon or Plunkett and not a Matt Flyn or Scott Mitchell or Matte Cassell

Hah?

Garoppolo career numbers-> 67% completions, 690 yards passing, 7.3 YPA, 5 TD's, 0 INTs, 106 QB rating.

Not sure where he got those numbers lol

Since when is 25 old for a QB LOL?!?!?!

Im pretty sure Steve Young was 25 when we got him.

People wanted Cousins. How old do you think he is?

How Old was Alex Smith when he hit his prime?

I hope people realize that Carson Wentz, in his second year in the NFL will be turning 25 in 2 months.

Excatly. Should've just waited for Wentz when the Eagles dump him for someone younger this offseason.

Well then he better find a julio jones and an alex mack

Probably not as much as what Cousin's would require, but I will add to my first statement. Thank you for not acquiring Cousin's, I think he is over rated. Most other fans on here disagree with me, no problem they have the right and I have mine. JG is by no means a sure bet and has much less experience than KC but for me I like this move better than a KC one.

I agree I didn't want cousins either...was hoping for the kid from ucla oh well now we can build this team around him

When they pick him up I hope he's wearing his rings....

Jimmy G. and C.J. And just like that our QB position is solidified.

Finally, the QB situation is stabilized. Don't have to worry about which QB to take in the draft or sign as a FA.

Yup. Can concentrate on offensive weapons, the O-line, and secondary now.

And pass rush

Garoppolo is that Italian or Greek?

He's a UFA after this season so wonder if that means he signs a contract also

Probably go back to NE

I forgot that 49ers can franchise him

Still got a boner. What a mothaf**king move. Props to shannylynch for going for it, even with the job security they have.

I didn't think Garoppolo would be available but when Brady kept playing great this year that door opened. Cousins was my first choice in free agency but his price tag may have really hurt our long term chances.


I really like this move. I also wanted Rosen but there was a lot of risk with that pick. There's also risk with Garoppolo BUT we could trade our first round pick and recover our second and then some. That way we'd basically get Garoppolo for free, as far as draft capital goes.


I'm excited. We NEED to address this o-line. We need a true #1 WR, a big/fast guy opposite Garcon.


Needs on offense-

Center, gaurds, WR.


Needs on defense-

DE, CB, LB.

It feels really good to take QB off that list for now. Feels REALLY good.
