Insert whatever bum on the Niners roster at QB and he probably has playoff stats.

Any one of which would be an upgrade here. Look, I'm not a huge Jimmy G fan, but it would probably (probably) be an improvement for us. Still, with this coaching staff, they could turn Drew Brees (2012-ish vintage say) into a five win, 20 TD, 12 INT QB.

No matter who we get to play QB, if the coaches can't call a pro-level game, then it doesn't matter.

At first, we went with the smart, physically limited QB in Teddy. Then we went with the physically talented but mentally limited Darnold. Going with a Jimmy G would basically just be regressing back to our initial QB mistake.

If we really wanted either of these players we’d have traded for them already. Lot of talk in the off-season that ain’t got no truth to it. Calling BS on this one.

Panthers plan 1 is to draft a QB. We probably have a trade back contingency in place if one of the players we want is off the board.

as far as players on other teams go, I’ll look at Minshew with the eagles as being the most likely QB to be traded to Carolina. I’d take him over Willis every day of the week. I know there is a Willis hype train but drafting him at 6 would be a huge mistake on a second round talent at best.

Trade for them now and you telegraph your draft plans.

When the next natural step be to acquire a physically and mentally limited quarterback? 🤔

Enter Kenny Pickett. 😂

To be fair, Pickett doesn't appear to be either of those things.

My issue with him has been that he strikes me that as a guy who puked in college and isn't necessarily going to get better.

If we do pick him I will of course hope that I'm wrong.

Like you never puked in college!

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
