Let's not forget that SF gave up 3 #1s to get him.  You don't quit on a player you give 3 huge picks for because he has one or two bad games.  

Purdy is the only reason SF doesn't look totally stupid.  

Excluding Cleveland because they took two guys but neither in the 1st…

The model of taking a guy high and taking a shot down the draft has worked out great for two teams that come to mind as having done it. Purdy, and Kirk Cousins are the guys that saved each draft. 
I don’t know about a 1st rounder this year for us but if we ever do it again, we should follow those examples.

That's because the national guys pay less attention to the team than the half checked out Panthers fans. Sounds like some David Newton quality content right there.

Yeah at least in our case. I think they know the league favorites better than the loser Panthers. They know Tepper meddles, that’s about the depth of their perception. They fill in some blanks and have a take.

I was in on Mac Jones after his first start for the 49ers, but upon some reflection and early replies from this board caused me to think there are some problems:

1. he doesn't have a strong arm either but can put some zip on short accurate passes; we would have the same problem with him as we do with Bryce in not being able to stretch the field vertically; 

2. he's under contract next year so we would have to give up some draft capital to get him; and

3. is Mac actually a good qb now or is he a product of Kyle Shanahan and his offensive scheme (neither of which will be in Carolina next year)?

Kyle has made j8mmy g, Purdy and now Jones to a degree all look good.  Im sensing a common denominator here

Bryce was ruined. Tepper has issues, probably just 'newer owner making the usual mistakes' type thing. Rinse and repeat on the next issue. Very general and without specific details. 

Look at sone stats and base thr blah off of that and the generalities floating around. The fact we have won 5 games is going to skew it all to way too opportunistic IMO. Just under .500 how bad could it still be?
