Heard this argument the other day on the radio?

QB situation is one thing that a coaching candidate will look for when trying to gey a job with a team.  The most important position on a team, unless there is a plan at that position.  That HC job will not be attractive.

 

Our Current situation looks like 2 things, keep Cam or build around one of the other 2 QBs.  So right now, your a highly sout after coaching candidate.  Whichnis more appealing to you going forward and going to convince you This is the job you want over another one where they have something at QB.

Or option 3. The coach coming in makes a splash moves up to top spot to take qb they want?

Honestly, this is probably one of the first things I'm asking any prospective HC or GM candidate I'm seriously considering if I'm Tepper. How are you gonna handle this QB situation?

I'd lay all my cards on the table in terms of everything I knew about the situation in terms of Cam's current health, the opinion on future prognosis from the medical team, what Cam is wanting in terms of potential contract extension, etc. and simply ask them, "Well, what are you gonna do?"

Here's the thing 

All of that falls on the GM

Thats why this argument came up.  Coaching Candidates will be the ones asking Tepper and Hurney this.  I get it, its a "Head Coaching" job and the money.  But guys arent going to step into something they think could set them up to fail.  They want to know what they will be dealing with and have to work with were they to take this job.

But I think I want my HC and GM to be 100% on the same page on this one. You're off to a really bad professional relationship if they aren't.

Suprisingly no.

Some still argue just the question marks surrounding Cam's health

I just don't view the Allen/Grier situation as much of a pitch from a "future of the position" perspective, I suppose. With Cam you have a valid pitch, although you are going to have to temper their doubts on the injury(assuming the team doesn't have the same doubts). 

I would think a chance to draft a QB would be more attractive than the Allen/Grier pitch, TBH.

Dumb poll. I like Allen and Grier might be good but Cam is still the most proven. 

You and Ron Rivera might be the only two people left on the face of this Earth who think the stars could align in such a fashion that Kyle Allen becomes a legitimate long-term starting NFL QB.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Wanting that type of play and being okay with paying $55 million a season for it are two entirely different things. If Bryce were to become the same player Purdy has been, then he would surpass my expectations of him and I'd be okay with him as our QB of the future (and again, I've long been one of the bigger anti Bryce people here who doesn't think he is capable of being our long term solution). But in no world would I be okay with paying him THAT kind of money, paying an average starter elite money is just a terrible decision.

      I don't think they can overcome that mistake. Hell Lance was a hiccup compared to this. He isn't going to be able to carry that price tag and now he is going to have to do just that. Lol. The NFL is so dumb sometimes.

      So, one could say that T-Mac is quicker than someone of his size should be and while he might not be quite as fast as Evans in the 40, he's more athletic than Evans. If only someone, anyone, could have seen that in his tape and mentioned that on here, hmmmmmmm In all seriousness, hearing he tested in the 89th percentile in that drill at his size is crazy impressive.  Just tried to look up the times of the top WRs in the league right now, most don't show at time for that, but I did see Chase ran his in 7 seconds flat. I honestly don't know how true this is, but I do remember seeing one breakdown of his tape and the person said he has quiet and efficient feet.  That he's really good at using the minimal steps possible to make his cuts and because of that, it actually makes him look slower to the human eye because you don't see all the quick chop steps that the guys like Tyreek would use in their running. I'm still in a state of disbelief that he's a Panther and it might not fully hit me until week 1 and I see him out there making plays for us, still feels like Goodell is going to just be like, "YOU GOT PUNKED!!!  hahaha, he's a Cowboy now, suck it"
