What do we do now at QB?

I've mentioned it a few times but I'm a big believer in the theory that you draft a QB every year. Not a high pick unless you really need one but somewhere in the draft. Pick a guy tha thas something you like. It might be size or arm strength. maybe it's mental toughness. The point is if you see somethung there's always the possibility that he can be developed. I mean who thought Purdy was anything more than a camp arm.

There are many players that are late bloomers. Maybe they aren't physically mature yet. Maybe it's mental. Drafting a mid or late round QB gives you a guy to look at in camp. If he works out okay then he can be your 3rg QB. If he's a little better he becomes your backup. If he's one of the rare finds, he becomes your starter some day. QBs are so important that it makes more sense to draft one mid or late round at instead of a DB or O lineman that may not even make the roster. If you hit on one then maybe you draft one every other year. They're like pitchers in baseball. They get hurt a lot and you can't do without them. You can never have too many. This year even 4 wasn't enough.

Interesting post. One prob I see is we drafted of course TL and BP. Most teams only roster 2 QBs. Last year we rostered 3, cuz we saw enough in BP and didn't want to expose him on the PS. When a player is on the PS, they can be taken at will by another team who offers an active roster spot. Eventually you run out of active roster spots at this position meaning you lose your draft pick if another team wants him.

They're not doing their job. They weren't when they picked Jimmy over Brady 3 years ago. They didn't when they decided an injured Brock / Trey was good enough for next year. They didn't when they let Fangio walk. And they certainly won't when they skip over Rodgers.

not doing their Job ?

Brady looked awfully and jimmy coming back from injury helped get us to a SB..Sky was the limit at the time
The season isn't even over yet to pretend right now is what we will have going into 2023
Fangio doesn't mean anything really
getting Rodgers will take a couple of first rounds to get.

this is not fantasy island

Call on Aaron Rodgers.. lol.. only in Madden with trade override on

You don't know that they haven't kicked the tires on Rodgers. However, given the situation we have with draft picks, even kicking the tires is a waste of time. GB isn't trading AR to the 49ers under any circumstances. They just aren't.

Brady 100x more realistic.. just give it 40 days

The only way Brady returns to the matrix is if Purdy needs TJ, even then, I think Tom is done this time.

Bosa already counts as 17-18mil under our 2023 cap so at most it would be an additional amount of money, not the whole lot.

Besides, contracts are almost never structured that way. Even if we re-signed him we'd probably still keep his 2023 cap hit at what it is now and possibly even lower it.

We should have the $$$ to go and get Trey/Purdy more support. They're going to need it.

Support is one thing. Someone to enter a battle or start is lame

I understand but if you happen to strike gold you make that guy your backup. It's a shame that the NFL doesn't do something to allow teams to carry at least 4 QBs that can be insurance and possibly developed. They could give them some type of exemptions to the roster and cap.

Something needs to be done because way too many teams see their season go down the drau=in when the QB gets hurt.

Would be kinda cool if NFL expanded rosters to 55 or so and required 3 QBs all clubs for gameday. The product suffers when you have an NFCCG and no QB for a half. Garbage product. That could have been Biskurt or Buzzcut.. whatever his name was.

Is it me or would Tom look weird in a 9er uniform? I get he is from the Bay Area, still would be weird to see though lol.

OK. How do you fit his $59M contract into the budget? ...and then there is the net $10M in dead money we would have.

I get it. You aren't being serious. I just wanted to throw out some numbers.
