The Brock Purdy Thread

[Pattersonca65]

LOL, except he already has been top ten. LOL, this guy suggested the 49ers bring in Deshaun Watson. Genius

Most rankings have him outside of the top 10.

Most rankings. Lol. Sure. He is top ten based on QB stats.

Lol. Avengers again. No other 49er qb under kyle was top ten even JG. You need another fake narrative

No point in discussing this. It's going to happen, the big extension.

Really the discussion should be about Shanahan and Lynch's personnel decisions, not the big contract they offer to one player.

Matty Ass won a god damn league MVP under Kyle, RG3 won ROY under him. He took both Jimmy & Brock to the big game.

Nice pretzel. RG3 was a one year wonder.and JG never statistically top 10 nor has any other QB under Kyle in SF

Sounds like Niners started the bidding at $45 million per. Purdy needs to take that or GTFO.

[clyde21]

I would not go a single penny over $45m. If he doesn't want it, play the year out and see what happens.

[wco81]

Why does it take so long?

Supposedly the team really wants to do it and Purdy wants it.

It's like the extensions with Bosa and Aiyuk, they both dragged all the way through the offseason and training camp. Bosa's deal wasn't finalized until the season had started. Aiyuk also missed most or all of training camp.

But it's supposedly a slam dunk that the team will extend these players.

So it can just be waiting on other moves by the team to clear cap space. They must be hammering down every detail and haggling over every term.

Seattle just traded Geno Smith supposedly because they were $10 million a year apart on the extension. So the longer this goes on, it's likely Purdy wanting every last cent.

It’s taking so long for multiple reasons. First is that the 49ers are having financial problems, the owners need cash and aren’t wanting to pay huge amounts this year. Secondly it’s about future cap implications. Third, they are offering him what they believe he’s worth and Purdy believes he’s worth more.

They should not pay him a penny more than $45 million and they should do a short term deal. There isn’t a single team that would pay Purdy more than that after the season that he just had.

[wco81]

Where did you hear they need cash?

Do they not sell out Levis? Even if they don't the TV money should cover them.

[Samurai]

I think it is inevitable that the Niners will go more than a penny over their opening bid, probably even a few dollars over. In a negotiation, the team will typically make their opening bid on the low side and the agent on the high side. Then, hopefully, meet in the middle without damaging the relationship. I don't even think it is a question of will the Niners go a penny over their opening bid but a matter of how many dollars over they will go and how many dollars under the agent's request Purdy will go. Pretty sure Paraag has a number in mind that he feels comfortable he can take and still meet the financial obligations required for the rest of the roster and I'd be shocked if that number is the same amount Paraag would put forth as his opening bid.

I seriously doubt the 49ers are having financial issues. With the salary cap and revenue sharing, it is hard to not make money. They are just salary pressed and getting older and looking to dial it back a bit

I would not go a single penny over $45m. If he doesn't want it, play the year out and see what happens.

I think they'll settle on $49m which will give the team the ability to say they didn't go over 50 but close enough to 50 that Brock and his team will be happy.

I expect them to play hardball but I doubt the initial offer is the final offer and like any deal making progress one side starts low and the other high and it's about battling it out till you reach an acceptable middle ground.

In fact I wouldn't be shocked if the league in general starts playing hardball because I get the impression they know QB contracts are starting to get out of hand and I think there will be an effort to reign it in.

We should look into what kind of trade offers are out there for him. Good way to gauge his value.

Reign it in? Josh Allen just got $330M with $250N guaranteed

Unicorns will still get there mega deals but I think the league is burnt out from paying guys like Tua or Lawrence 50+ million a year top QB money. I imagine the league wants to play hardball with that tier of QBs.

The guarantees are huge, but I think the Allen contract actually helps us. The annual amount is the same as Dak's, and there's just no way Purdy can now demand more than that. Goodbye all talk of $60 million/year.

I get that guarantees are huge in today's NFL, but if a player actually plays out his contract, I don't see how they matter all that much. Maybe that's my own ignorance speaking, but it seems like when we have lower guarantees, we just end up restructuring and causing ourselves problems down the road anyway. And again, Purdy is not going to be able to demand the guarantees Allen did.

It's not an awful idea if things get jammed up. An elite QB should be able to get two firsts - one in the top half of the round - easily. If he can't generate that sort of interest, then we shouldn't pay him at an elite level.

If we get an offer of 2 firsts for him we should take that deal and run the other way as fast as possible.
