i'd do 5 year 200m. set brock and the team up for success. if he wants the be the top player in pay then he needs a reality check

faith got his strwy laugh he was looking for lol

I love this forum. Always good for a laugh.

he signed yet?

I think they will do it after the first wave of FA. The Niners have less opportunity to ideally structure UFA deals. So they need the optionally. They can give Purdy the money in a more ideal structure once they know how FA fell for them.

Twice

I think people on this site have to get used to the realisation that Brock Purdy is going to be the San Francisco 49ers quarterback for the next 12 years.

That is a football lifetime.

So, you can spend 12 years rooting for him

Or 12 years complaining about him.

Or swap game for game and root for him one game and then complain about him the next and then root for him again and then complain about him and so on and so forth ad infinitum.

Hence why I constantly say no to Dak money. Again look at HIS deal. It is not fluff made up money. He's getting most of that cash. Same with Burrow.

love's deal is basically a 3 yr $163m deal if GB wants it to be. There's fluff to make the total look bigger. Cool do that with Brock.

Dak's deal is basically a 4 yr $236M deal, A LOT of that s**t is GTD his cap hits the next 3 yrs is $90M, $68M, $61M and it's real money, not massive cap hits with no GTD cash.

Structurally, the Dak and Love contracts aren't too different.

• Dak
  • 269M in total cash over 5 years, 231M practically guaranteed
    • 2024 - 81.25M gtd at signing
    • 2025 - 47.75M gtd at signing
    • 2026 - 40M guarantees 3/25
    • 2027 - 45M guarantees 3/26
    • 2028 - 17M guarantees 3/27. 38M remaining is never-guaranteed
• Love
  • 231M in total cash over 5 years, 160.3M practically guaranteed
    • 2024 - 79M gtd at signing
    • 2025 - 13M gtd at signing
    • 2026 - 51M, 10.4M gtd at signing, 40.1M remainder guarantees 3/25
    • 2027 - 20M, guarantees 3/26. 23M remaining is never guaranteed
    • 2028 - 45M is never guaranteed.

The problem with Dak's deal was that his previous deal had 29M in salary left and 66.9M in unaccounted for cap allocations. The Cowboys are still paying for the mistake of not extending Dak early the last time around. Love only carried over 11M in compensation (salary + workout bonus) and 7M in unaccounted for cap allocations. Love's deal simply has 1 full season less guaranteed and 18M less still owed from the previous contract.

The cap hits on Dak's deal is a product of the unaccounted for cap allocations that resulted from Dak's previous deal. The Cowboys are still paying the price for not extending Dak's rookie contract and waiting to the point that his deal was a completely new contract. Giving Dak the free franchise tag credit in 2021 also didn't help.

Paraag likes to start negotiations in late January, early February. If Paraag isn't trying to play hardball with Purdy, I'd expect it to get done quick. If Paraag overemphasizes his beliefs in his analytics though... Lynch and Shanahan are going to step in at some point this summer to force him to cave.

What does that look like?

By "him" I mean Paraag. Examples include the Aiyuk negotiation, the Bosa negotiation, the 2022 Trent negotiations, the Kittle negotiations, etc.

I know I'm in the minority, but I would play hardball with Brock.

I knew who you meant. I think your examples would point to a similar start, so to speak, to a negotiation with Brock right? Depending on what he actually asks for I guess.

Yea, a negotiation with Brock. I don't think this negotiation is a particularly difficult one. The team has spent the last season at a minimum getting ready to make the plunge to pay Purdy. Jed, Lynch, Kyle, all talk about Purdy as if he's the franchise QB. The only thing left to do is pay him like one. I'm just soured on Paraag's contract negotiating skills.
