This however is not a bold assumption:
Baker Mayfield ranks either #31 or #32 (of 32 qualifying QBs) across the efficiency metrics. He's been objectively terrible. Would be quite a reclamation project. I think the 49ers believe in Brock Purdy and his ability to avoid backbreaking mistakes more than that
Who said Mayfield has been good this year? I would rather hope his problems were with the mess in Carolina and roll with a guy who won a playoff game recently. Then hope a 7th round rookie becomes the next Tom Brady.
I love what I saw yesterday in Brock. But it's a fairytale story. We need another insurance card. He has chemistry with CMC. Do it. It doesn't mean Brock can't start.
Bosa might flip a table if we sign Baker. I think he hates the guy

Might get him angry enough to do this on the field.

Put all your fan mojo on Brock Purdy the dark horse getting help from the NFL and officiating
NFL media is spinning it as an impossible dream and bigger than Bradys 1st SB
It would be huuuuuuge money and content generator for NFL
100 percent. A kid from AZ who played out his full college commitment to Iowa State. He is the quietessential underdog we love to hear about. Becasue we can tell out kiddos see, if you work hard you got a chance. I also think him stating he has faith in the lord will play well with some higher ups.
The only way you get Baker is if he clears waivers and agrees to be the backup. He was playing OK in the past, and could be better than Josh Johnson, but that's not saying much.

I thought he was released, not waived ?
if released we don't have to wait for him to clear. would be interesting if he joined the 49ers
