I honestly don’t understand what football games some of you watch. And Josh Allen is boring? Again, I don’t understand how you process these things. I was only able to watch the 2nd half last night, and Mr. G was terrible. I only remember seeing one completion (a fluttering to duck to Kittle up the middle.) Every one of his passes just floated and two of them could have easily been picks. I did not see any sign of arm strength or great decision making. I don't see any reason to add an expensive option to our QB fold even if the cost was just a 2028 7th rounder. $20m could pay another team need. (Heiny, Corral, and a $20m FA MLB>>>>>>>> adding Jimmy G.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llevron Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 The entire point of the system SF runs is to minimize the impact of the QB and simplify the game for him. Jimmy G plays his role ok but he’s not the answer for anyone. Not even them. 6 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even SF with their system catered around a mediocre QB's skills and a dominant defense realized that Jimmy G just wasn't it and gave up a king's ransom to draft their QB of the future. Same thing the Chiefs did. They went to the playoffs with Alex Smith and then turned around and gave up a bunch to move up for Mahomes. Even teams that see some success with mediocre QBs eventually jettison them for someone with a much higher potential. And we're supposed to be happy about taking their castoffs? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolblue13 Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 I doubt anyone thinks that Jimmy G is any kind of answer to the long term top tier QB. SF obviously doesn't, that's why they gave up so much to get Lance. Jimmy G is the answer to the question "How do we become and stay competitive, while getting that QB".

London Kev Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 The number one priority for me is drafting one of the top rookie QBs and this will almost certainly cost us our 1st round pick. This will at least give us a chance at getting our franchise guy, and will also give the fanbase the type of boost that comes with a getting high-ceiling, shiny new toy. I'm sure that this is also something that the owner/FO would welcome during the name change transition phase. I don't like the idea of also using a 2nd (if that is the cost) to get Jimmy G. He looked like a stronger armed Heinicke yesterday and IMO isn't that much of a step up from a Trubisky/Mariota/Bridgewater type FA. Getting one of these FAs makes much more sense to me, and at a far cheaper cost. We then go into camp and have a Rookie/FA/Heinicke QB battle for depth positions. I will say again that although getting Wilson is going to be almost impossible, if (and it's a very big if) we could get him, then I would give up a truck load of picks and cash, and forget everything that I said above. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy G doesn't have that potential. Most players don't. SF is not so much making Jimmy G a good QB with their system as they are trying to minimize how much damage he can cause and what impact he has on the game (though he still did his best to lose them the game last night). And they obviously know that's not a long term winning solution or they wouldn't have given up a boatload of picks to move up for Lance.

Koolblue13 Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 I've said several times that Carr is the guy that I want to get. I'd send multiple 1rst round picks for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
actorguy1 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) My take: Plan A: trade for Wilson, Rodgers or Carr for multiple first round picks. Not likely to happen. Plan B: sign the best free agent quarterback that they believe fits the system and then draft the best QB they believe fits the system. In mini camp have a competition between the free agent QB, the rookie quarterback, and Heinecke. In training camp have the top two competitors (probably Heinecke and free agent) compete for the starter. Plan C Trade picks and extended a mediocre QB like Garappalo. Please don't bother.

rumplestilskin Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I bet Rodgers is getting sick of the cold and wondering if a move would allow him to play his game in decent weather in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel.redskins Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 A lot of hate for Jimmy G. He is better than anyone we have. He has a strong arm and throws with anticipation. We would have been a playoff team with him. If SF would take a second for him i would pull the trigger. Use our first round on a lb. Playoff team next year. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the thing, you trade for Jimmy then he’s your 4-5 year starter. You aren’t looking for that guy in draft. Yeah, maybe you draft a developmental guy in the mid rounds but you aren’t looking for that long term guy. The best move for us is to draft our qb in round one. If you want to be competitive while waiting for the rookie; then you get that 3rd tier qb in a one year deal. If the rookie busts; then you try again in 2-3 years. By then; you will on a new coaching staff. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJL Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 the top rookie QBs are just not good enough to waste a major pick to trade for. I think one of the top guys will easily be there at 11.

On what planet does Jimmy G mean you can't draft a rookie with a 1rst and prepare for the future? The 49ers did it. We can easily trade for JG AND draft a QB this year and/or next year.

I’d actually argue that a restructure to Jimmy’s contract for an additional year + a rookie is a must if we trade for him. His mediocrity is frustrating, though. And will likely leave the rookie in a place where they could be called upon earlier if Ron doesn’t find success/quell the media and fan rebellion. If he finds success… we’ll obviously be fine. Jimmy should be a low end plan for us. Having said that, again I reiterate, Jimmy’s value to SF likely exceeds what they can get for him and they’d only likely move him right now if someone pays way above what they should for him. They can’t get him back after this upcoming season because his contract is up and then it has to be Lance’s show. Which means they have a year to develop Lance. Why rush it?

Est.1974 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 My guess on our approach is : a - offer a serious haul of picks for Wilson. b - then try for Carr.

I suspect my serious offer is not enough to seal the deal. I'd also make a serious offer for Carr. This too, might fall short, but mainly because I think the Raider's will make the price too high. If we that fails, I don't think I'd go for Trubisky, Mariota, or Jimmy G. I'd go with Heinike and blow the bank on a rookie QB if my scouts tell me there is a rookie QB who could become a star. 1 minute ago, mistertim said: He ended up with a QBR of 11.8 Did he really?

People will see that, reflect on it and think that maybe those comments are accurate.
