Brock Purdy, 49ers agree to 5-year $265M contract extension \ stacker news ~Stacker

That makes it look a lot more reasonable. He's at least not overpaid compared to some of his peers.

Yea, he is probably in the Tua, Prescott etc range of qbs meaning 10-15th best range but that’s a significant amount of cap to pay for a game manager.

Like Goff is also a game manager but surrounded by elite talent. San Fran is in a retooling phase and their best players are getting old by nfl standards.

Will be interesting to see if they can replenish talent and hit on 2-5 round draft picks consistently

He is a top 10 QB but not top 5. I am ok with the contract. It’s a bit more than I would like but the cap is going to take a big jump next year and the Eagles proved you can pay a QB well and still keep an elite team together.

Mahomes
Jackson
Allen
Burrow
Daniels
Goff
Hurts
Herbert
Love
Stroud

Some interchangeability in the above but I’d take them all above purdy on an individual basis.

I think purdy belongs in tier of Stafford Kyler Lawrence Mayfield Tua Prescott etc

I think Purdy belongs in with that Goff through Stafford group. I think Stafford's better than those other guys, but he's getting older and might be more injury prone.

Purdy is better than Goff, Love and Herbert. Love and Herbert have more talent but neither has proved it yet. I would probably have Purdy around 8. I would also have Stafford and Mayfield in top 10.

It’s risky business to keep hoping on cheap labor to overachieve

On pure talent hurts is overpaid

Hurts brings a different intangible dimension leadership and competitiveness wise.

Also probably the strongest qb in the league short yardage wise

The Eagles can afford it, because they draft so well.

Don’t worry I am bookmarking this to remind you. 49ers will have at least one Super Bowl with Brock by the end of his contract. He won’t have a bunch of MVPs but he will have a ton of wins.

$53M for Brock Purdy!!! 😆😆 this reminds me of Daniel Jones getting $40M and Giants fans saying

Well that’s the market! 😆

Telling you as bills fan I lived the life of a bad team overpaying marginal QB talent. It’s not a fun place to be.

Ok sure Blok. The guy that took the 49ers to the NFC Championship in his first year and Super Bowl in his second year is just exactly like Daniel Jones. It’s pretty easy to criticize everyone else’s QB when your team has the reigning MVP but 32 teams need QBs. I am sure the NFL would be just an awesome product if 28 teams were trying to tank every year in hopes they get the next Allen or Mahomes.

Market rate for a good QB is now 50M but you seem to think if they aren’t top 5 the team should just blow it up and rebuild.

Meanwhile the Eagles just won the SB with a guy most people wouldn’t have put in the top 10 before last season.

Teams and owners are complicit in this inflated QB market.

The niners fell apart when all of the high end offensive skill players got hurt. I think this proved Prudy isn’t good enough to carry a team on his owns

Purdy is good and I’m not saying the niners need the next super star but paying middle of the road QBs top 5 money leads to disaster.

And Hurts is good but Philly has an unbelievable roster. Great GM making great moves.

The 49ers had the worst 4th Quarter defense in the NFL last year. They blew 3 games where they had over 90% win probability in the 4th. It wasn’t just Purdy.

Purdy didn’t have his best year but he also hasn’t played 3 full seasons yet. His game is still developing. He ran more this past year and threw deep more. That was his first year really facing adversity. I suspect it will only make him better.

It depends on whether they find a bigger sucker to trade him to.

NFL cap is confusing but I believe with the amount of guaranteed money he’s owed in the first 3 years it makes 0 sense for niners to trade him with the cap penalty they’d get

That might be right. I've never been clear on when salary can be unloaded and when it can't.

Who should they have playing QB if not Purdy? There are only 4 elite QBs in the league and they didn’t have a top 3 draft pick over the last few years where they could have tried to draft a potentially future elite QB. So your idea is they should just sign some guy who isn’t as good for 35-40M instead of paying Brock 53?

The AAV doesn’t matter as the Eagles proved with Hurts. It is how you structure the deal.
