QB Brock Purdy Thread

Saw this pop up on my twitter feed and though it was a nice reminder to people who forget that Brock brings some extra with his legs.

Check how many first downs he picked up with his legs


And some of those runs weren't exactly nobody in the vicinity types. Hell Brock led the team with rushing TDs last year(obviously injuries played a factor but still)

Pay the man!!

I wish he would do this more, especially on 3rd downs

We're "loyal" alright. Just not in the order in which people think we are.

Before you start dunking on people maybe you should wait for details on what happened.

Next time maybe don't be so eager to collect the "told ya so"

Naah,...gonna keep the same energy,...especially with how sensitive you get with jokes.

Haven't seen this kinda energy from u since all the "Jimmy's the guy" stuff. Let's keep it going.

Steve had a "told ya so" for Stafford requesting $50M so "Brock should ask for more" before signing with ANYONE and you called it a "great point."

As of now,..Stafford hasn't "GOTTEN" that, so how is it GREAT,...just going by your forced definitions? Are you FOR these forecasts that havent came true or been proven,... or against them? Dont try to play both sides out of convenience.

I dont see $55M/Yr GTD,...nowhere near it. And this "backpayment loyalty" for a guy you gambled on and won is a figment of your imagination. They pat themselves on the back and continue moving forward.

He didn't walk into the offices one day and say "hey guys....I'm Brock Purdy, and I'm here to help you keep your jobs! Thank me later." They DRAFTED him! You generally only get 7 a year. They gambled and the gamble paid off.

The loyalty regarding how much cap space we give him's going to come with "I Believe Heavily In You For The Future." Nothing about this silly "I owe you for the past" stuff. Lynch is sitting around Santa Clara getting family members jobs on the staff,....I dont think these guys were ever anywhere near desperation,...even after this past yr.

p.s.,.... Did you realize that the "we would've stunk in 2023 without Brock being drafted and signing" thing is yet another hypothetical that can never be proven? You're all for using that conjecture as a crutch for your points, though, so I'm just confused?

If you're going to get upset at jokes because people discuss things that have not yet been proven,...at least bring some consistency with the attitude please?

First time you make a joke worth laughing at I'll be sure to do so. You offer nothing to this forum but condescending posts putting down other people's opinions. That's technically not against the rules so I'll let you keep at it but the energy you get coming your way is well warranted.

Try actually making an actual opinion of your own and see how quickly you get called out on it for being wrong.

And for the record nobody claimed the team was going to give him an extra $10 million for the Lance save. My point was simple - this regime owes him a lot and a deal will get done. They're not going to play hardball here. Not sure where you're even pulling the idea that I think Brock will get $55 mil/year guaranteed. That's literally been NOT what I've been saying for months here.

You're too busy trying to trash the only decent QB we've had in decades with extreme mental gymnastics to stick to one point.

How far you wanna dig? Would Jimmy have to throw that pass to Wilson if there isn't holding before the first pick?

Jimmy G as the only decent QB we've had in decades?

Clearly,...in all 49er starter QB threads...we have vastly different ideas regarding "worth." So I'm not exactly waiting around on that one...lol.

My post history is there because I actually have takes. Good or bad. Try it sometimes when you're not busy acting superior.

Looks like you have the time to go digging for old posts, try using it for something productive here. I've said a lot of stupid stuff on here and at the time I felt Jimmy was better than he was. Notice I didn't call him great. So now…what does this have to do with Brock? Cuz that's going more towards trolling.

You want to actually make an actual point here? Feel free.

Here we go:

I think the 49ers have the leverage in negotiations. Given the lack of experience, the questions that may still linger due to 2024, and the fact that he's still under contract and will be for the foreseeable future (2 additional possible franchise tags), I do not see the 49ers surrendering a huge chunk of cap space simply because some outsiders feel like it's the right thing to do.

Backloading a deal with voidable years if that's what Brock's team wants is in play for high figures. I think the 49ers are going to try to meet him @ what he's probably currently worth, and leave it in his hands to sign or not sign.

I don't think they blink at the 1 advantage point Brock would have availabile in play, which is holding out, because he's barely made money in the NFL and he's not ready to risk his career like that. Someone like Stafford can play the "whatever,...I'll just retire then" threat/card,.... but that's not anywhere near in play for Brock.

I think Brock wants his accrued season, and does not want his contract "tolled" for an additional year, and will end up eventually reporting whether there's a huge sum of GTD money offered or not.

--How was that? Was an actual point made?

I like Purdy and have supported him some of the most of anybody. But they have to be really careful with this contract. The Deebo (wants out), Aiyuk (over paid - injuries), Lance (Bust), Hargrave (injuries - bad system fit) all blew up on them. They seem to get burned on these big deals a lot. I like Brock. But the media has some points that he has some physical limitations. Plus we were 6 - 11, .353, #11 overall pick with huge injuries. So you can pay too much. Because we will lose guys and it will be similar to the injuries again. He needs to take a reasonable deal.

the reality is jimmy did good things here and there was a lot of positive. that's why i don't say it as a huge putdown, to wonder if brock is jimmy 2.0. jimmy won 38 games here and has a QB rating that is one of the highest all time. brock would have to put in a lot of work to match some of jimmy's totals. they both are mid level starters at high cost once we pay brock. that is my opinion for now, based on the evidence

Great thanks. Now why are you arguing with me when I've never claimed Brock is going to hold out or demand huge GTD money?

You're literally saying you expect the same thing to happen as me, just presenting it a different way.

I've said the same thing in various forms here the whole time since the season ended. They will get a deal done that's good for both sides, likely one that may look "big" on paper when first announced but will be very team friendly once the details drop and the sooner the deal is done the better for the 49ers.

My guess would be there's a disparity in what you think Brock is worth (and what you think the team may think he's worth).

You can agree on these concepts in principle but an idea of the actual cost would be a critical piece of a disagreement.

I've also maintained I don't know what he will get and haven't gotten into the numbers. I've just said the way the situation is on both sides will get figured out and I'm not going to waste my time talking numbers until they're officially announced.

I wish he would do this more, especially on 3rd downs

That's where I will give some blame to Kyle, you know he wants to find his man and throw it, and Purdy probably feels that pressure a bit. But ya, I wish he would run even more often, although it seemed like last year he did it bit more than his previous year.

I am torn on the running.

The moment you get crazy with it is the moment you have a season ending injury.

He is not built like Allen or Lamar.
