Not offering an extension this offseason is screaming at Brock "We are 100% going to replace you ASAP". Better to just pull the bandaid off this offseason than do that. You draft/sign a guy and trade/cut Purdy, or you extend him with a significant pay raise. There's no real in-between. To do otherwise is just p***yfooting around.
Ummmm… you posted with conviction but you did it mention any real consequence beyond us being perceived as "screaming"
The consequence is wasting a year on a QB you've already decided isn't good enough. Why waste that year? Just go get another guy and move on.
You're 100% correct. Either sign him or draft a QB and trade Purdy. Anything in between that is a waste of time.
I'm not sure how you come to that conclusion if we're considering the draft. Sitting a rookie behind a cheap purdy on the last year of his deal is about as good as it gets
Not in the NFL in 2025. Every rookie QB drafted to start now starts his rookie year. Even if a team plans to have him learn behind a vet (which Purdy wouldn't really be) they still end up starting within that year. See New England this year.
This is a recipe for Shanahan to go 2-15 and definitely get fired.
Exactly this. All of the holes on our team and we take a QB with a high pick? Create a QB controversy and ruin the team chemistry. That's not happening. They need to just decide based on what they've seen. And I simply do not see Kyle/Lynch taking another chance on a rookie QB high draft pick.
Now they can take someone in the middle or later rounds. But they better address C, RT, LB, S, and TE first.
