Totally. Lance will cost $9,301,434 next year with Purdy costing, $889,253. That is one cheap QB room. And draft another Mr. Relevant.
Gonna get your Center with the savings
Any one of the 3 1st round picks would have grabbed a nice center too fml
And hindsight is always 20/20. LOL
For real. Give it up. The dumbs**t comments about the 2 first round picks we gave up is rather annoying. Get lost if you can't get over that.
We used 3 1st and a 3rd bro, and it's hard to get over such a terrible move.
It is what it is. The NFL draft is just a big gamble. To act like those draft picks crippled our organization is short sighted and comes from fans just looking for a reason to b***h when there really is anything to b***h about today.
This always bothers me.
Draft picks have no other purpose then to gamble with them. The more talent a team has on it, the less valuable the picks are.
People also forget that Picks cost money too in yearly salary. So you pay to gamble.
Trading those picks for Trey was a solid gamble, and you could argue that combined with the picks that went out for CMC are the reason the 49ers could AFFORD CMC.
From the way I understand it, and I could be wrong....There is roughly 8 million in salary missing due to the Trey Lance trade. Add in another 2-3 million for the draft capital that was spent getting CMC and it seems like solid book keeping to me.
