Nope, doesn't work that way. Transfers are where they finish their college career, not where they start.  Tua was their man, he's the QB they rode with and why Hurts transferred.  My point remains and Hurts is a Sooner.  

I get that for players like Burrow, but Hurts literally had more starts at Bama than he did at Oklahoma.  I think that's a little different story IMO.

Answer honestly. Would you rather have Young or Richardson?

Richardson and it's not even close.

Can that Bama Qb be Ty Simpson?

if you want a real sickos option, it would take some serious doing and it probably wouldn't cost much from a compensation perspective, but I bet the niners would listen to offers about Brock Purdy.

Probably makes more sense for them to roll with Mac Jones instead of Brock considering their cap situation, state of the team. Their window has closed.

How about stay away from Bama QBs?  Name one successful one recently--NFL success.

This was literally the exact same argument that people threw out about why we shouldn’t draft CJ Stroud since Ohio State QBs before him didn’t pan out. Scout the player not the uniform.

Yeah this always drove me crazy.  Now you have to definitely consider players from these schools being on stacked teams, but you can say the same for UGA, and LSU when Burrow was there.

Strouds game against UGA should have been the end of the conversation.

I liked him before that, but that sealed the deal.  I always thought at worst he could be a Goff type player.  His accuracy and leadership were top notch.

You trade him because he’s valuable. You cannot trade Purdy because of his contract. Kinda stuck in a bad spot in San Fran.

49ers will want picks and probably high ones. Like a 2 and 3 or something. And whomever trades for Mac jones will have to give him a new contract. Something like bridgewater got from the panthers.

Bryce is an add on. No one is going to trade a guy who’s shown he can start and perform well in the nfl (jones) for someone the panthers clearly aren’t going to keep around, if they’re trading for a qb. There’s no world where the panthers trade for someone like Mac jones and keep Bryce around. We saw how well that worked with darnold and baker  

adding more fun to this, when the 49ers drafted lance, that was not the qb shanahan wanted; that qb was mac jones. 

anyway I think the trade would probably be 2nd and 3rd, or maybe a first round swap plus a third. Then new contract for Mac jones. Bryce is an afterthought.  

Oh I would trade Jones if I was SF. He is valuable. Very at that contract price.

Yeah but I don't think they would want Bryce, he isn't cheap at all for a 3rd string QB. Plus, is Mac Jones really worth a 2nd/3rd to us and THEN have to pay this MFer out the ass? TBH, I wouldn't want that.

It's a waste of valuable draft capital for a very middling QB that is likely to now want more than he is worth by a significant margin.

I agree. They should figure out how to dump that Purdy contract. Im not sure how they could tho. That window is closed, if they couldn't win a SB with a cheap Purdy they sure aren't winning one with a ridiculously expensive Purdy.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were shopping Purdy instead. 

I think everyone in the NFL would be shocked to see them be that insanely stupid.
