QB Brock Purdy Thread

They are incredible talents. But how many rings did LeBron think he was winning in Miami? He's been trying to stack the deck ever since and still only has 5 4rings. I think Allen is clearly capable of winning a championship his way, but I think surrounding him with elite players would have underwhelming results, like Lebrons Heat. Unless he can play like the all time greats, but I've only seen him in Cam mode

I don't agree with the comparison at all, but I don't want to turn this into a NBA thread so agree to disagree.

It's a ludicrous comparison. You have to love the assumption that Allen couldn't succeed in a system like ours because he's in a lesser one with lesser talent around him. He'd be an upgrade for at minimum 29 other teams and a big one for us.

Do you think there is any chance Brock holds out at that number?

Would you bet Ben Johnson wouldn't, with a similar system, near his school, and near his wife's farm. With luck, dude might even have some head coaching skills and an offensive line.

what the heck am i reading

Translated further by your personal AI assistant. . Could he go to Chicago. Close to wife's farm. They may build or have a really good OL and maybe Ben might be a really good HC and Brock would be a magical fit.

Nope. He's saying if you want to low ball Brock, he's not obligated to chain his career to Kyle's, and he will have options with prospects of success.

but he is obligated. he is under contract.

If you let him play out this season he will hit the open market and every QB needy team will start bidding on him. The 49ers know they have to get this done.

Never said he couldn't succeed with us. Never said he wouldn't be an upgrade. Even said he obviously can win a SB. The point is ball dominant mega talents are incredible at what they do, but surrounding them with elite talent doesn't always produce the sheer dominance you think it would. Allen's style just takes away from the great players. All due respect to him, but I'd rather have a real pure passer over a jack of all trades on a loaded team

Yes it is lol, but like I mentioned don't want to turn this thread side ways into a NBA thread so I'll just let it be.

i'm 100% confident the player and club both want a deal, and quickly. so that is what will happen. i even predicted a time and date of the deal and amount, i think in the lynch thread. i have this as done in 2 weeks

At $5.1m. I wonder if he shows up for the off season and all but the last 6 games of the season to get the season accrual. That money is so far below his market value that it logically would not be worth the injury risk.

In other words, not gonna happen. So if practically speaking, if you can't hold him to it because that's not in his best interest, is he really under contract?

Unless Brock agrees to 45mm, I don't think the Niners are in any hurry to sign him.. If Niners wanted to fork over 52-55mm or more, this thing would already be done. I sense Jed really does want to go cheap for awhile and if this means losing Brock, so be it.

it's certainly not optimistic or optimal for the health of the team but oh well…

you have two parties eager to get it done imo. he probably has $45m aav on the table now. and you think he's holding out? missing regular season games? i will wager.

This is the idea that I was responding to. The assumption that his style would take away from great players around him when it's at least in part a product of not having great players around him and being in a lesser system. He has a larger burden than the vast majority of successful QBs in the league. Applied to him in college as well.

yes he's really under contract. the club holds his rights for 2025. all he can do is pull a chris borland and say i quit / retire. he's not doing that. even if he did do that, he's not free to sign elsewhere. the club has options on his rights for 2026 and 2027, thank you cba. even over his protest, he cannot play for any other team through 2027, if that's the way the club wants to play it. i think he likes it here, so i see all of this as some fantasy scenario you are discussing.

You assume he plays this way because everybody he's ever played with sucks lol. Maybe it's because he's done it his whole life? I can't see him playing like a Joe or Tom, but maybe he has that in him
