it would be nice but I have a feeling that the FO does not want to sign ANY big money Free agents

I'd like for the FO to take a chance on Bryant but only if the money was right. I don't think they will more so cuz of his past character issues.

haha I don't mind spending a little money to get him. he's a good proven receiver, and we have quite a large amount of $$ to spend with Peppers walking. and as for character issues, Smith will smack em up a bit(literally? :P) to keep him in line.

if we picked him up, we might be able to address other needs with our 2nd round pick rather than a WR.

Yeah I get your point, but keep in mind most of that money they save from Peppers is gonna be used on players currently on our roster. It'd be nice to see him paired up with Smitty though. :)

Yeah I know, but the thing is it's not like Bryant is going to require some giant contract. He could probably be had for a great deal, I mean TJ Housh was worth more than Bryant currently is, and Housh is only making $7 million this year. We can easily afford to sign him and still have room left to get Davis/etc signed.

He would be a hefty price tag. However he and Smith would do some heavy damage. Couldn't afford to double team either of them if they're on the field at the same time.

Hell yeah It'd be like covering Boldin & Fitzgerald. Damn we still gotta wait another week for free agency to start I'm getting anxious.:P Though at the same time I'm not gonna hold my breath.

No, George Costanza has amazing hands.:D

I would be fine with getting Bryant if he isn't expensive to keep. With how we're not paying to tag Pep, maybe we can have some salary left to sign Bryant once we signed Moore & others first. Maybe then we can get a DE or something on our first pick in the Draft instead of a WR.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
