Docniner Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Yes drive up his value and get rid of him. I don't think he's a bad QB but he is NOR a great one and.I.still say he will not win us a superbowl. We have enough talent on both sides of the ball to win a SB. We just.don't have the right QB.

JG typically wins when he plays. he was not the issue in 2020. I have been following football for 45 years and have never seen a team hit with so many injuries. no qb could have had a winning season this year with the rotation of missing players. I would prefer that they not trade away assets and let a healthy team do its thing. They still have a young team and a lot of draft picks (maybe trade a few to better their position). In 19 the team had a heavy dose of injuries and he helped get them to a SB ... and was 6 minutes away from winning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we have had a ton of injuries over the last couple of years so I'll give JG the benefit of the doubt and yes he has won games but I still feel he needs a little more umph to his game if he's gonna win a SB. It would be nice to have Watson but the price will be too high and we don't need that. So, that being said I think they could use their 12th pick and whatever else to move up and get one of the 4 QB's that are being highly touted so far. Well 3 cause T. Lawrence goes #1. There's Wilson, Lance and Fields that could be possible. Yet 9ers have been known to move down in the draft on occasion. I'll support JG for now but it would be nice to grab one of the good rookies this year 'cause it looks like the QB position coming out of college is gonna be pretty thin for a few years.

Bier Meister Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I could get behind drafting the right qb. I also think Rosen could be a bargin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docniner Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 One mock has QB Tey Lance falling to us.at #12. I HOPE they'd jump all over that pick if he's there for us because it looks like the college QB's will be a little lean for the next couple of years so if the get the chance to get a player like Trey Lance they better jump on ot. No problem having him sit a year behind Jimmy G. plus he'd be a good insurance policy for Garoppolo should he.get injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docniner Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Watching NFL Live and Field Yates said it would only cost the 49ers $2.1 million in dead cap space were the team to cut Jimmy G or trade him. NFL Live analyst 's said he is for sure a good QB but lacks some in critical moments. Yeah he was awesome against the Saints a couple of years ago but I DO believe he lacks the killer instinct to win a superbowl. I think Lynch & Shanahan would definitely move him should the opportunity present itself. Now after Lynch's recent comments I could see the 49ers making a serious effort into trading for DeShaun Watson and I believe Watson would agree to go to the 49ers. It'll get interesting and intense the next few weeks in, the Watson saga. I don't think it's out of the question that the Niners try to move up and work something out with Miami , Atlanta, the Jets or even the Eagles to draft one of the top rookie QB's. Don't really see the Jags moving out of the top spot to take Lawrence. The college QB situation could be a little lean the next couple of years so if teams are wanting to get a possible franchise QB.they better do it this year.

JPPT1974 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 He did lead the team to the SB LIV. But still for now wonder if that can change at any single moment there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
League_Champion Posted February 25, 2021 Author Share Posted February 25, 2021 I couldn't imagine anyone taking on that salary. They really have no choice but to keep him. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/jimmy-garoppolo-14472/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I am very happy about this trade.... grab a top prospect and groom, see if jimmy can stay healthy/regain high performance, not giving up defensive assets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm shocked you're happy. They gave up a ton for what, Justin Fields? They'll have a young QB and no 1st round picks till 2024. That's not good.

Docniner Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 (edited) Well, Lynch & Shanahan were at Mac Jones' pro day and seems that some mock draft guys have the 49ers taking Jones at 3. I'm not so sure that's the right pick. They're saying Jones has exceptional football IQ and intelligence, that he's a.cerebral QB. I remember another QB with those attributes the the 49ers drafted #1, Alex Smith. Look where that got us. We could have had.Aaron Rodgers with that pick but noooo. Smith had football IQ and Rodgers had the IT factor. Seems to me that Jones would be somewhat like Garoppolo, maybe better and not feeling him as our future.franchise QB. Moving up to 3 you've got to take a QB that's a difference.maker and not someone like what you already have. Someone who can go put the game on his shoulders, go make plays off schedule and win games decisively. Not sure Jones is that guy. I'd rather they gamble and swing for the fences with either Fields or Lance. I think I like Lance a little more but wouldn't be upset with Fields. So I'll it up to the 9ers braintrust to go get the right QB. I just.hope it's not Jones Edited April 3, 2021 by Docniner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was throwing to NFL Wrs, had an NFL offensive line, NFL running backs, etc. He hardly ever felt pressure or got touched. He's a 4th round project on a good day. I don't love him but to me Fields is the easy pick at 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today's NFL quarterbacks have the mobility to make plays when protection breaks down. Jones may be able to scramble some but I still think he's gonna struggle against defenses. If Shanahan wants to get back to a superbowl he better take either Lance or Fields. I think Lance has better upside but happy with either. Jones will no doubt go 1sr round but I just don't want him as our franchise QB. We'll see come draft day if Lynch and company make.the right decision.

That's why I'm starting to think it will be Fields. But Lynch is locked into 3 so there's no reason to bluff anyone. I don't understand the Jones love. There must be something there.

While Rodgers certainly has more talent their legacies could have been very different had they been on the other teams. You also want to discard JG's 1 full season as a starter where, despite injuries, still posted respectable numbers and were minutes from a sb win. I do not recall a team being so devastated on both sides of the ball as the 49ers last year. JG was never fully healthy, plus the oline was suffering...which showed gave all sf qbs problems. I am all for drafting and developing a rookie, and/or getting a more solid backup, but a healthier team will look much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, the bad part is that they are in prime position, in what is believed to be, a solid QB draft. I'm not sure Jimmy G can win them a SB and if he doesn't, they more than likely won't have as high a pick, especially, with a healthier team next year, and therefore, will miss the opportunity to draft and develop Fields or Lance.
