Oh if only we were more frugal... oh dear... I'm worried cuz our salaries

+1

His salary clearly wasn't a concern for the 49ers leadership but for the haters look out.

So glad we have JG. Imagine if we cut him 6 months ago to resign Richard Sherman and have Andy Dalton / Trey Lance at QB we'd be watching the games instead of playing em at this point

U can sign a hell of a lot more help then Richard Sherman with 27 million 🤣

Oh yeah cuz championships are won by cutting your starting QB and spending big in free agency. That's worked like zero times yeah we should have done it.

Imagine disagreeing with Lynch at this point when were 3 wins away from number 6

ill ask you this would it have been "better" if he was paid 10 million less this year but then the deadcap for cutting him is another 10 million next year?

It's moneyball because they quickly tried to pay him before his market went up even more (there was a run on QB pay then) and consequently added annual rip cords and had the cap space to pay $40M up front of that.

All that before ever really seeing how he'd fare once he had to play within Kyle's actual system and not hero, off script ball when he arrived.

I totally get your point as to value and ROI. I'm big on that too esp. at the most expensive positions and with this FO and where they choose to spend their cap space.

Most teams want to sign a player early for the same reason…that's not just a SF thing.

Not at the QB position after just 5 games though. That's on the FO.

How many top prospect qbs have landed on a super bowl talented roster…ya mr Trevor and Wilson had a real shot there this year. Friggin Mac jones made the playoffs and new englands roster is minor league compared to ours.

Yeah and great job front office. He's 33-14 with a 99 rating and 3-1 in the playoffs. Imagine if he was healthy in 2018 and 2020 that's really the only knock. He's been worth every penny. Hoping he roasts Green Bay for the obvious let's win reasons but also the added bonus of draft capital. If he goes out and has a clutch game like on road vs Rams our stock is going up even more.

Again they were never gonna restructure his contract like you're saying….I'm talking about a pay cut.

Perhaps not but then you wonder what is the exit strat. I suppose they could tag him after 2022 and attempt to trade while on the tag. My gut says he's gone soon I expect with his solid campaign there will be meaningful offers, we need the draft ammo, it would be a tightrope playing him into his final year, we are dying to kick the tires on Trey after selling the farm, etc.

In any case no need to have this convo now we'll have from February to August that's 180 days of no football
Let's keep it about f the Packers Week
