Gotta say it: I think a lot of people are completely misreading the Garoppolo situation. The 49ers think they can win the Super Bowl this season. That isn't likely with a rookie QB starting. Unless they get a tremendous offer, why give up the SB shot by moving Garoppolo?

Right. He's probably here until the end of the year. The rookie takes over in 2022, right when the 49ers need his money to starting looking at extending Bosa.
Everyone who reads this board knows I'm not a Jimmy fan, but the smart move is to keep him on the team through 2021. We don't need the cap room this year and it would give the rook time to learn the system and build confidence. Who knows, if the kid is good enough make he takes over mid/late season. This is best case scenario.
The smart move would be to trade Jimmy and a second to New England for the 15 pick. Then trade back. Trade Mcglinchy grab his replacement in the first round. Ship a fifth for Minshew. Then they would have cap space to fill some spots this year and draft capital to fill some of the leftover holes and the team would be in great shape for the future.
That would be incredible, and our rookie QB needs the stability of a vet.
