Well to be honest, Brock Purdy has had trouble with Baltimore and KC. So yah he would have a tough time in the AFC playoffs. Purdy has shown he can beat the best in the NFC though.

So has Josh Allen.

Josh Allen is undefeated in the playoffs against the ravens.

But winless vs KC!

I would give Brock a 10 year deal with an out after 6 years. That way you can keep restructuring his contract every season to keep the cap low. Look at what the Chiefs did with Mahomes,He's into like year 6 of his contract and I don't think his cap hit has ever been high because every year they keep restructuring it. You can't do that with a short-term contract. There is no wiggle room. It's why Dak's cap hit was like 50+ Million last season.

Why would he do that? He's going to want to hit free agency again by 30. He isn't going to let the 49ers have him locked in for a decade when we all know they can get out of those deals whenever. Its all about guaranteed money.

Dak - 231 mil
Burrow - 219 mil
Lawrence - 200 mil
Tua - 167 mil
Love - 160 mil

He's probably going to want around 175 mil guaranteed.

People need to just get over the fact that QB's get PAID. Thats just the market. You can either pay up or rebuild. Purdy is young, he's a fast processor, hes won in the playoffs, and hes a great role model. The only reason people don't want to pay him is because he was a 7th round pick. If he were a 1st round pick everyone would be happy to give him 55+ mil.

No.

I don't want the team to give Purdy a huge contract because he can't play in bad weather, his arm strength is average at best, his can't see the target 40% of the time because he is short which means he has to throw to a certain area without knowing if the receiver is gonna be there which also means he wil get picked more and more every season, he has had 3 injuries in his already average throwing arm and he needs an all-world supporting cast to succeed just like all the other mid-tier QB's out there.

Purdy is the type of QB that you give a 3-year contract with 2 years of guaranteed money and no more of 45M per year and then you keep looking for someone better. If he wants to hold you let him hold because he might lose his job to McCorkle.

Love, Tua, Lawrence and Dak got money they didn't deserve and their teams are paying the price for it.

Idk how many times Typecast gotta explain it. The franchise tag is bad business

For the owners, the "threat" of it is great business. It's virtually 100% team-beneficial and the threat of it will almost certainly get us a better deal with Brock.

The idea originated from team owners, specifically Pat Bowlen, the owner of the Denver Broncos, who wanted a way to retain key players like John Elway while allowing free agency to proceed. It was initially referred to as the "Elway Rule."

NFL players initially resisted the idea of the franchise tag when it was introduced in 1993. During negotiations for free agency and the salary cap, players were concerned that the tag would limit their ability to explore the open market and secure long-term contracts. While the franchise tag guaranteed a high salary for one year, many players viewed it as a tool that primarily benefited team owners by restricting player movement.

Ultimately, the franchise tag was accepted as part of the broader collective bargaining agreement (CBA), which included free agency—a major win for players. However, the tag has remained controversial, with many players continuing to criticize it for limiting their financial security and career flexibility.

Everything's not black and white. Being upset about your team taking advantage of leverage they may have is very suspect; do you want them to WIN? Or do you simply want to see a favorite player or 2 every weekend, and you're satisfied with that?

He should have been given away already if these smooth brains that drafted Trey still have questions. Franchise tag just pisses players off while backfiring on owners. I know we will not win going that route (games or contract), and I want to win. It also looks so low on their part to string his career along like that after he's made so little and saved jobs. Should have let him go if they still have no respect. You love the idea because you hate the player, but it really just looks bad and always backfires

We got a front office that doesn't know what it's doing or what they want. The same front office that got us to move off Mac to draft Trey. They are incompetent and it should be frustrating to you too

You clearly didn't watch what he actually said if you took that as a knock against him.

Also as a reminder, you're not paying him.

Well at least Purdy is not acting like a diva like Aiyuk.

Yet.

Lol I agree that Dak, Lawrence and Tua were overpaid. Mostly, cause they are overrated qbs. Heck, even Lawrence said he was surprised he got the offer, cause in his mind, he wasn't that great of a qb or something like that. He was right lol, dude sucks. Tua also has been injury prone. Dak, you can see ints coming from a mile away lol. All bad contracts, yes. But we have a qb who is better at processing than all of them, who is more accurate and has already won two NFC Champ Games back to back. Was he perfect last year? Nope, as Brock put it, he was spoiled those first two seasons with the team that we had. Last season was one of some true adversity. A cluster cluck really lol. I think he has learned from the experience and will help him grow as a qb. Brock tends to learn and adapt quickly. He says he wants to win multiple SBs for the 9ers lolol I would be happy with just one.

Its not about " getting over the fact that QBs get paid"

Allocating a large portion of your salary cap to one player has impacts on the roster. This is already showed its effects. If Purdy cannot play at a high level that aligns with the pay raise, we are in trouble.

He'll be more like Trent Williams and Nick Bosa. He'll post nothing on social media but his agent will sure use Ian Rap and Schefter to have a lot to say.

2 nfc title games, 1 super bowl where he didn't hurt the team and had it in position to win. All of that in his first four years or so?

Dont be f**king stupid. Sign him.

I guess people need to get over the fact that food prices have gone way up. That's just the market.

We know that's the market but that doesn't make it right. Fans have gotten used to these crazy salaries but they aren't making the game better. Massive salary increases cause repurcussions down the road. Other players start holding out and demanding more. Why wouldn't they? If you're responsible for protecting the QB or catching his passes you're going to want more money. Maybe not quite as much as the QB but certainly big numbers. We just saw what happened to the 49ers this off season. They had a lot of highly paid players at their position. CMC. Bosa. Kittle. Warner. Williams. Deebo. Aiyuk. That caused them to part ways with several supporting players. Now they have to try and replace them with cheaper and younger draft picks.

So has Josh Allen.

He had better stats than Mahomes in that game and was right there till the very end. I wouldn't call that "having trouble." The team lost,...but football is more than a 1-man show.
