"We wanted to do right by Jimmy. We have a lot of respect for him. We wanted to send him to a place that he wanted to go. Since no trade materialized with the teams he wanted to go to, we decided to release him and let him have free rein to go where ever he wanted."

Simple. Face saved.

this team is not gonna keep Jimmy G going into the 2022 season.

I'm not so sure anymore.

I hope, but Lynch's words don't mirror this. Cutting Jimmy would amount to admitting they were wrong about his value and they played it wrong. I hope they can.

They were wrong. They did play it wrong. No fortunate (or unfortunate, depending on who you are) events change those simple facts. They miscalculated. Full stop.

I don't know why people are so afraid of making mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. Take your lumps and move on. You don't hold on to a bad hand to save face. That's how you go broke.

The only plausible scenario where JG remains a 49er, and I have said this dozens of times, is if the team does not feel Lance will be ready. That, in and of itself, is a massive problem. Even the mere suggestion of this possibility suggests the 49ers made a massive mistake / wasted draft capital. I don't think they did, but if JG remains, he is remaining on the team to start, not be the backup.

Ok.

Brady was behind Bledsoe. Bledsoe got hurt. Brady took over. Brady got hurt Bledsoe won afc championship game. Brady still keeps his job. Brady wins superbowl. Brady earned his job.

Montana unseats deberg, wins the superbowl the following year. Montana earned his job.

Lance couldn't unseat a gimpy Jimmy. People afraid Jimmy being here would hurt treys feelings next year, don't want him to earn his job.

Is that accurate enough for you?

If Lance sucks, then he has to work through it, or the team figures it out that he isn't the guy. I don't want a plan B (Jimmy). Last thing I want is Lance to struggle, the team puts in Jimmy which prolongs Lance's development - whether it's developing into a FQB or a bust.

Originally posted by JoseCortez:
So let me understand. You keep jimmy until he's cleared, then see if there are takers. If there are no takers, you still hold on to him to keep trying to move him until the very last day when his contract becomes fully guaranteed. Then you dump him? All this during a very important develepmental training camp for trey, when you specifically stated you want no distractions for trey, and to add to that they must keep up with the optics that Jimmy is in competition with trey in an effort drive up the asking price? This plan doesn't seem well thought out.


Where did I say any of that?

I don't think the team has to worry about that, teammates won't crush a new guy making mistakes if they don't become habitual, and fans are gonna complain anyway. If Trey got hurt, I'd rather see Jimmy in there than Sudfeld. I just don't think Jimmy will take a pay cut. But if Jed don't mind paying him, I don't mind him being here. Would probably help Trey to have a successful veteran in the qb room honestly. I don't think Trey is the kind of guy to have a fragile ego.

Jed has to pay that money anyway…it's not his cash, it's the players revenue. Only thing he can do is determine who gets that money.

no one would benefit, including Jimmy.

Its a concern of mine. I know I pushed for Jimmy to start Last year, but in the back of my mind i was actually hoping this great talent would unseat jimmy amd take over. It didn't happen, and I was disappointed.

They aren't gonna cut him. I don't see Lynch having the balls to do that... Jimmy gonna be part of the 2022 9er team.

Last season, it was Jimmy's job to lose. Experience trumped over raw talent. This season, its Trey's job to lose. Experience won't save Jimmy this time.

Only if he accepts a pay cut. They're not going to pay him his $25M to be a backup.
