I am not saying thow in the towel on bryce at all. But I think the smart money would be to invest in some developmental guy who could provide a potential back up option should bryce falter. This is exactly why no one is making a fuss over Trey lance trade up in SF. He broke even their mistake.

In a deep class with guys like spencer rattler and Joe Milton, guys like jordan Travis floating around in day 3 i think its smart money. what say you?

To me, it’s more important that we upgrade our backup QB with a higher-end vet.

 Bring in Minshew, Tyrod, or Brissett to both mentor Bryce and also win us some games if we need them.

Bryce should not be deemed “unbenchable” this year if we have a chance to win a game and he’s struggling or hurt.

Sure why not?

 

 

49ers got Purdy as the last pick in the draft. He's not elite but has shown he can get to the SB with a talented roster.

 

Maybe we find someone better than Bryce and we don't have to take a QB the following year. You never know how these QBs will play out. I would take a chance especially if that QB has the arm talent. With good coaching he can develop into something.

Yes. Countless examples. Just look at the SB for examples. Brock was drafted with trey lance(they traded 3 1s+ for) and starter jimmy. Andy reid made a career out of trading backup QBs(feely, kolb) for prime picks. Kirk cousin was drafted in the 4th in the same draft the wfters traded 3 1s for RGIII. 

If your trusted scouts have a 2nd round rank on player and hes still there in 5th, draft them no matter how you feel about the starter. NFL has a nearly 40% player turnover each year along with many injuries. The goal of the NFL is stock pile talent and it will work out.

I say yes, but we all know Tepper isn’t going to allow it.
 

This is an extremely deep draft at the QB position and they might fly off the board, which would help us. 

However, if Rattler is available in the third or Travis in the fourth or fifth… I’d pounce.

Why wouldn't he? He's "allowed" throwing resources at QB every single year since 2020. Too much hax been one of the biggest problems. A later round puck would be the least wasteful things he's "allowed "

Even if he is still super committed to Bryce the potential ROI on a late round QB that hits should be an easy sell to Tepper. Even if Bryce pans out if the late round QB shows promise you have a solid backup for minimal investment or you flip him for significantly more in trade value than what you spent to acquire him.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
