Benjamin Albright was on the Morning Roast this morning and he basically said there is no market for Mac Jones.

And people here was saying he should be traded for a first or multiple seconds. LOL. This is the Jimmy G thread all over again.

There's always a market, but the 49ers aren't desperate to get rid of him and shouldn't let him go for peanuts

You argued the exact opposite in 2022.

I may have argued people's opinionated value/cost, but no way would I say any current player can't get another gig with another team.

Yeah, I have said this before too, the whole situation is very similar. The only difference is that Jimmy G was more loved here by fans since he played a lot, and the Lance/Jimmy dynamics was bizarre, ie an incumbent QB whos being replaced by a high draft pick, hanging around. While Mac is a clear backup to Purdy.

But its very similar in terms of unrealistic expectations of trade value.

Getting another gig and having trade value are not one and the same.

I think Market might not be used in the correct context
if Jones was being shopped for a 7th, he would be picked up quickly because there is always a market. Just cause no one wanted to pay with a first or whatever pick they listed his value as to other teams means no one wants him.

Yep.

(There was no market at our asking price).

I understand the argument, but to me this is us robbing ourselves of a true value advantage we've created.

From the team or fans?

Probably both, lol.

Raiders and Steelers are the only teams left that could feasibly want Mac.

There is no market for him anymore, especially not when Rodgers could come back, and/or teams would be able to get Cousins, Russ, or Wentz.
