This however is not a bold assumption:

Baker Mayfield ranks either #31 or #32 (of 32 qualifying QBs) across the efficiency metrics. He's been objectively terrible. Would be quite a reclamation project. I think the 49ers believe in Brock Purdy and his ability to avoid backbreaking mistakes more than that

Who said Mayfield has been good this year? I would rather hope his problems were with the mess in Carolina and roll with a guy who won a playoff game recently. Then hope a 7th round rookie becomes the next Tom Brady.

I love what I saw yesterday in Brock. But it's a fairytale story. We need another insurance card. He has chemistry with CMC. Do it. It doesn't mean Brock can't start.

Bosa might flip a table if we sign Baker. I think he hates the guy

Put all your fan mojo on Brock Purdy the dark horse getting help from the NFL and officiating

NFL media is spinning it as an impossible dream and bigger than Bradys 1st SB

It would be huuuuuuge money and content generator for NFL

Brock deserves to start. He's put in the work.

The only way you get Baker is if he clears waivers and agrees to be the backup. He was playing OK in the past, and could be better than Josh Johnson, but that's not saying much.

So anyone picking up Purdy in fantasy?

I thought he was released, not waived ?

if released we don't have to wait for him to clear. would be interesting if he joined the 49ers

After the trade deadline, pretty sure everyone has to go through waivers. I might be wrong though.

I believe it depends on number of years accrued in the league, doesn't it?

If a team waives a player after the deadline, the player is subject to the waiver claim process, which is done by reverse order of the NFL standings

Who cares what you think? I will tell you, we are definitely not getting Baker.

Normally but after the trade deadline they lock it up so teams can't do these workaround deals to put a player in a specific destination.

Yep.
