Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

Purdy's stats last year:

65.9% completion rate (17th in the NFL)

3864 yards (10th)

20 TDs (tied for 15th)

12 INTs (tied for 4th most)

96.1 passer rating (13th)

They just paid a total JAG starter like he's an MVP caliber QB.

Completion rate, yards, and 20 TDs aren't really black and white stats. 

He was 7th in total QBR. He has the 7th highest pay per season. He's also getting paid for his total body of work, not just last season's stats (where the entire team was obviously down due to injuries).

Not sure why people work so hard to try and say Purdy is terrible.  He seems like a really likable hard working QB.  To put things into perspective look at the panthers all time leading passing stats vs purdys 

So Purdy has played very few games and his down year would be 4 or 5 all time for the panthers and his best year would be 2nd all time for the panthers.  Not sure why anyone would think paying this qb who is still growing in the game 7th overall for this year which will most likely fall to 14 or 15th overall next year is a bad move.  He had no one last year and still put up good numbers the panthers arguably had better skill players than the 49ers did healthy last year.  panthers had better healthy rb, wr were close to equal slight edge to panthers, and the 49ers had way better te play.

A JAG that has been surrounded by a very talented team his whole career!

Panthers had better skill players than the 49ers? I don't know if I agree with that. 

Breakdown of games played for each team's top 5 receivers:

49ers

Kittle - 15

Jennings - 15

Deebo - 15

Pearsall - 11

Aiyuk - 7

 

Panthers

Thielen - 10

Legette - 16

Coker - 11

Diontae - 7

David Moore - 17

 

Which one of the 49ers top 5 wouldn't start for Carolina?

Kittle would start Juan jennings is a 27 year old 7th round pic whose best season up until last year was 35 catches 416 yards he only started due to all the injuries, deebo is washed up was overweight slow and just bad last year injured a ton.  Aiyuk did play in 7 games mostly injured and was a shell of himself caught 25 passes for 374 yards over those entire 7 games normally that would be his stat line over 3 games.  Pearsall returned from being shot but a first round pic and believe will be a good wr.  If I were buildign a team from the two teams of healthy players that played mostly last year.  I took out aiyuk b/c he was a shell of himself.  and Deebo is terrible but just my opinion and will see how he does with the redskins. 

RB Chubba Hubbard

TE Kittle

WR Thielen, Pearsal, Legette/Coker

This is all opinion based and we will see how Purdy does this year but to say the 49ers had an all start team last year is a huge exaggeration.

Jennings has always been solid, he just hasn’t been someone the Niners needed to rely on heavily when they already had Kittle, Aiyuk and Deebo.  He put up almost 1k yards last year, which is more than Legette and Coker combined and almost 400 yards more than Thielen…yet he wouldn’t start over any of them if he were here?

This is a bad take dude..... Fitzpatrick was far far more turnover prone if anything hes a less turnover prone Fitzpatrick 

A 3.3% INT rate versus a 2.9% INT rate?

I would say that is pretty much right on par.

Darnold averages 0.55 fumbles/GM and Fitzpatrick 0.51 fumbles/GM.

a healthy aiyuc would start over theilen, but jennings hasnt shown much he was forced to be the starter the majority of the year last year with a horrible defense and never eclipsed 100yards in a game.  When theilen was healthy he outproduced jennings on a per game basis with worse qb play.  Like I said all opinions but I havnt seen anything out of him to say he is anything more than a third wr, maybe a 2nd if the other options are bad.  his career stats pretty much support that he has never been anywhere near ATs better years.

Never eclipsed 100 yards in a game last year? Does 11 catches for 175 yards and 3 TDS against the Rams not count for some reason?

You are saying the reason for Jennings production being better than any other panthers WR was that he played with a horrible defense and had more opportunties? The panthers literally fielded the worst statistical defense of all time so not sure how that argument holds any water. And how do you figure that thielens per game numbers are better? Jennings only played 15 games and was 25 yards short of 1k, that’s 65 yards per game vs. Thielen’s 61.5. He averaged more catches per game too. 
 

As I said before, Jennings was like the 5th option on the Niners super team from 2022 and 2023 so yeah of course his counting stats aren’t going to be all that impressive to look at from those years. The 4 other options in front of him (Kittle, Deebo, Aiyuk, and CMC) were all pro-bowlers. But he’s produced whenever he’s been called on and would be a solid #2 WR on most teams.
