iamskibibitz: Why do I have the feeling that come Monday, Brock Purdy will once again be "Mr. Irrelevant"?

He'll be in the starting QB discussion for the Niners next year.

There won't/shouldn't be a conversation. Jimmy G is a UFA, so he is gone, and the team gets nothing out of him. They can choose between Lance and Purdy, but one of them will probably demand a trade. I'd stick with the guy who has performed better, and done it under massive pressure. They would be far better off trading Lance sooner rather than later and getting something of value while they can. Purdy will definitely be looking for a raise this off season, and he absolutely deserves it. Bring in a vet as a backup and draft another late round QB to be the #3.

tedduque: mjbok: Dafatone: Aren't Lance and Purdy both on rookie contracts? I think the Niners likely trade Lance, but he can't exactly demand it. I guess he could hold out.

Lance 4 year/34 million all guaranteed.  Purdy 4 year/3.7 million, less than 100k guaranteed.  If they can move Lance that gives them picks and money to play with on a team that is already fairly solid.

My gut says Purdy is a serviceable quarterback but not a starter. He is no Dan Marino. More like Trent Dilfer. He plays mistake free football, which is good enough for the team he is on. To be a long time starter, he will need to be a playmaker, which I don't think he has shown himself to be. Maybe that is all SF needs for the next 3 to 4 years.

JFC. He's a rookie who has played a small amount of games and performed well under tremendous pressure and hasn't shiat the bed. Give 'im a break. For all we know. what we've seen is the tip o' the iceberg. If the 49ers take the Superb Owl, it's a given. He's a starter for minimum 3 years. Fark serviceable. Rodgers puts up amazing stats and farks up in the playoffs. I'd prefer a game manager who takes me to the promised land. It's all about how he does Sunday and, hopefully, in 2 weeks later. Shait, I don't even like the 49ers and I'm still rooting for the kid. I sure as shiat want to see the 49ers win more than the Bengals.

Thing is, he doesn't look like a game manager. He takes risks and tries difficult throws, and he moves well. He doesn't have the strongest arm, but his arm strength is okay.

You mentioned "tight windows" earlier. He's made some good throws, and he's gotten away with some bad throws. I don't think he's the love child of Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, but he looks good so far. I hope he continues to take care of the ball over the next two games.

Next year when the league has tape on him, it might be a different story. He does have a shiatload of weapons at his disposal, and a good play caller.
