Purdy’s 49ers contract could come ‘close to’ Prescott’s

  1. I’ve seen some rumors of teams offering 2 first round picks for Purdy. That would be something we have to consider imo. We cannot give him 60M

  2. I can’t wait for Purdy to get a contract so these stories stop and we can move on to the “Is Purdy paid too much?” stories.

  3. Relevant quote:

    >”Now if you go back over the last five years or so and you see the quarterback deals that were done, the average per year is usually anywhere from 21 to 25 percent of the salary cap. If it’s on the low end of that, he’s going to clear guys like Trevor Lawrence,” Garafolo explained on NFL Network’s “The Insiders” on Thursday. “Now he’s not going to get to Dak Prescott’s number of 60. But he’ll be in the high 50s.

    Also for what it’s worth I really don’t care that much about the “headline” average per year; what matters way more is how much is fully guaranteed. EDIT: which will definitely be a lot less than what Josh Allen is making.

  4. We get stories like this every single offseason with a contract negotiation and people eat it up like it’s the first time, every time.

  5. I like Brock but we can’t destroy the team’s future like the Cowboys did with Dak to pay him close to market resetting money. That type of money has to be reserved for guaranteed elite hall of fame tier QB’s like Allen/Mahomes/Burrow who can carry the whole team, otherwise you end up stuck like the Cowboys are with Dak.

    If 5-10 extra mil AAV is more important to Brock than winning I’d rather trade him for picks and roll with Mac while we keep drafting for a franchise QB (or if we get lucky and Mac becomes our guy).

  6. I have serious doubts especially with the fiasco with Aiyuk’s contract, Niners agreeing to anything near Prescott’s contract. Purdy has one more year on the contract, so they could force him to play on it if needed.

  7. Off-season contract talk, clickbait-y title, yadiyada. *But*: if we give Purdy anything close to the Prescott contract, we’re crippling the team. I like Purdy. I think you can win with him, and I think you can pay him. But you can’t pay him like a top 5 QB because he isn’t a top 5 QB. He *needs* the requisite pieces around him to succeed in the same way 27 other QBs in the league do, and while there’s nothing necessarily wrong with that you can’t live in fantasyland and pay him like he doesn’t.

  8. This is what happens when you open with a low ball offer

    They should have just offered 55 AAV right off the bat instead of trying to be smart as always

    New year, same old Niners with off season drama

    And btw I have ZERO issues with Purdy taking all that money. He has been banged up in each of his 3 seasons and securing his family’s future, I can understand

    Just make it a very long deal that Can be restructured multiple times

  9. Btw if it’s close and not over that’s very good for the 49ers the cap is only going up and getting Purdy on a mini bargain will be well worth it

  10. With all this talk of BP getting $60+ I can see the front office saying ok play out your contract, or get traded. KS has his bossom buddy in Mac Jones after all.

  11. Allen’s contract is the ceiling. It would be a major surprise to see Purdy get a contract that exceeds Allen’s.

  12. If 49ers are firiring on all cylinders he’s a top 10ish qb. When they are not, he’s a mid to late teens qb. Is that worth our future? Feel like we had it so bad for so long at qb, we marrying the rebound girl with no prenup. Is the best qb we’ve had since Jeff Garcia worth Prescott money?

  13. Just pay my guy and let’s move onto the draft… Whatever contract he wants and gets is going to be a nothing burger in a couple years when the cap increases another 20-25%

    Sheesh

  14. 49ers are 0.500 team without mccaffrey.

    Paying top tier money to purdy is dumb. Especially when he has shown that he cant win without weapons around him last year.

    Only 2 ways to win in NFL. Either have a cheap QB and good talent around him. Or have an elite QB like maholmes or brady.

    Paying top tier money to a mid tier QB is not the way to win championships. Purdy should be getting Darnold type money…not prescott type money.

  15. >While the numbers will continue to be debated, NFL Media’s Mike Garafolo believes Purdy’s annual salary could come close to that of Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott,

    He’s not giving any source, just his own guess out of the blue. This doesn’t need to be made into a big thing.

  16. That’s a mistake. I like Purdy but he doesn’t change the game and isn’t someone that can take over. I know I know he’s young and can still develop but I feel what we see now is what we get and it’s not worth that

  17. I’d rather it be closer to Prescott than Allens. People think Allen’s is less cause it’s 55 APY and Prescott is 60 APY, but in reality most of prescott’s contract is incentives, where Allen’s is mostly guaranteed. Stop looking surface level.

  18. His value is what other teams will pay for him . MAC JONES is cheap insurance policy. He’s a mid level QB at best .

  19. Well one of these QB’s has Super Bowl playing experience and the other does not sooooo 🤷🏻‍♀️
