Your assuming we were willing trade partners.

Anyone on here who has seen my posts, knows I've always liked JG - but I must say I'm very disappointed that he has been traded. It'll be awkward taking him into the season. I really hope we can off load him - even for a 6th round pick. It's important we clear his cap off the books.

lynch actually said he can see us keeping jimmy.. not one good thing comes out of that. lynch

He wouldn't be their guy with a 1 year 25 million dollar contract, while injured and may not be able to throw until TC. It's a terrible situation to give up anything for atm.

Compared to not having to give up anything(or much of anything) for healthy guys like Mariota, Trubisky, Wentz, and Ryan.

This is a business. You don't make decisions that could cost you a decent comp pick or better by doing something that is nice for a player. There is no reason to cut him as soon as he gets healthy, might as well wait until after TC in the event someone gets injured(long shot yes). We aren't signing some lucrative free agent now. Lots of scenarios with the "what if" game, but only thing we gain by cutting him ASAP as opposed to waiting is his feelings and fans can get over the Jimmy G saga.

Good post.

It's not just people Kolohe, it's also the FO. This off-season speaks volumes. The draft sent a clear message:

- we're okay without our best OG
- we're okay with questions at C
- we're okay with not upgrading RG
- we're okay with who we have currently on the OL
- we're okay with losing Tartt and replacing him with two guys who don't have his speed or range
- we need more talented runners and receivers, not blockers
- we need more role players on the DL (Edge)

This off-season and draft says to me the FO think Jimmy was the problem and Trey will be the answer.

Trey Lance better be the answer and he better guide the 9ers back to the Super Bowl in his second season starting or someone's head will roll. And I'm willing to bet Lynch would be fired before Shanahan.

Yes, Lynch will be the scapegoat even though everyone knows Shanahan has the final word. After all, it was Shanahan that hired Lynch. Without Shanahan's endorsement and approval, Lynch wouldn't be here. Nothing has changed. Lynch is a pleasant frontman, and he has certain responsibilities, however, anything that happens of any consequence at all must have Kyle's approval.

Kyle and John have made it pretty clear they're willing and more

Yet here he is. With a rehab that's conveniently taking a little longer to heal up than originally projected.

If a team believed he was a quality starter those are small issues to deal with. 25M is not that much to pay, waiting until TC isn't a big deal, and the trade compensation is well under the going rate for a starting qb

They made it clear that plan A was to unload him early this off-season 🤷🏼‍♂️ like literally said that was plan A

A pattern. 4 tds and 6 ints in the playoffs.
Just curious, is it generally the same people that wanted Deebo traded who still think for some reason Jimmy is gonna be back?

Technically, one has yet to be extended, and the other Is yet to be traded/released.

Not a very good Postseason QB. He will get you there with help though.
