But we should have played things off and kept Trey one more season until we knew for sure about Brock. See how team adjust to him this season, and how Brock adjusts back... see if he could stay healthy as well.

*played things off meaning having a good relationship with Trey.. nothing but positive s**t.. until we got a firm grip on the next branch. (Be it Brock or Trey or Sam)

Agree with all of this.

The crazy thing is, no one seems to want the QB's that Shanahan likes;

Jimmy G = No Trade Value
Trey Lance = No Trade Value
San Darnold = No Trade Value
Brock Purdy = Every team passed on him 7 times in the draft.

Not a good look for an offensive guru.

Meanwhile Pete Carroll can resurrect Geno Smith???

Coaching is our issue. We have an offensive minded coach and everyone is talking about our defense LOL

It is not correct to look at the trade value. Jimmy G's injury certainly had a significant negative impact to his trade value. So if you want to be fair, look at the contract Jimmy G received this offseason, and the contract Kirk Cousins received when he left Washington.

JImmy's contract was for less money than he was making in 2021.

Quite the contrary. That seems to indicate the whole league believe Shanahan is the reason for whatever success QBs have with him.

Shanahan and Lynch better hope that the Purdy experiment at QB doesn't blow up in their faces. Jobs are definitely on the line if they trade Lance and he develops into something good.

Yes, Shanahan was forced into nothing. He was convinced, against his judgement, and I think a big part of it was Lynch actually, based on the post-draft interview. EDIT: Lynch loves those high character guys. Probably he's the reason we took Solomon Thomas too.

Lance was never going to get those reps here. He's got a long ways to go in terms of the work he needs to be a consistent NFL passer and he may never get there. Either way the 49ers have a SB window open and that doesn't go with a QB needing a lot of work. He needs to go someplace where they will be patient with him and let him go through the ups and downs he's going to need to develop.

Nor is Darnold and at least try to justify the asset mgmt you have spent if Purdy does get hurt. I get it, Purdy is the guy. Fine. Let's say that things don't go as planned and he s**ts the bed. Now what? You're back to square one with no plan at the most critical position in all of sports. Again, piss poor asset mangement. Everyone keeps referring to James Wiseman situation in GS.

Difference is, you have your franchise player locked up. We don't know with Purdy. It's too small of a sample size. Let's say we start off 0-4...*knocks on wood* trading Lance now or starting Darnold would be a complete debacle of the situation.

You can "what if" every team that has ever walked on a football field.

I will give you bonus points for the mental gymnastic of pointing out Purdy sample size, at the same time pointing to Trey as some sort of solution with even less of a sample size....that shows great moral flexibility.

I think Trey will be traded for either two 3s or a conditional 2nd. Smokey, what do you think?

also, where the hell has Mayo been?

While the 49ers are exploring trade possibilities for Trey Lance, the front office has been shopping him for much of the offseason, according to a league source.
The team never received a significant trade offer.

I disagree. I love the fact every other team passed on Purdy, not only shows how flawed evaluations can be, but same thing happened to the GOAT. Jimmy had no trade value based on a unique situation with timing and his surgery. Trey has trade value, it's just not high.

I think we're not getting anything close to that if/when we move him.

A conditional low rounder (5-7) would be my guess. Would love to be wrong
