49ers name Darnold #2, pursuing options with Lance
#31
It feels like a Kwesi thing to do, taking another teams highly
rated castoff and hoping for that player to blossom and be a cheap but
productive player.  Is this his contract
#’s for the trading team?  2023:  $940k (if they paid his training camp roster
bonus or $3.7M if we do)  2024:  $5.3M


I just struggle with the same challenges everyone above
listed out.  If he showed any real
promise of not being a bust, I think they’d keep him and let his value build.  But it really comes down to whether you think
Hall can develop more over 4 years than Lance can over 2.  I guess there’s another option which would be
to roll with Cousins, Hall, and Lance, and then if Cousins goes down with a big
injury hit the FA market for a vet QB or tank for better draft picks.

It's official. What a colossally bad trade up they made for Trey Lance. Horrible. Purdy seems to have saved them, but let's not count those chickens yet. 
Yeah you can.  The kid played at a high level consistently for 3 years in the Big 12.   Will he be a Tom Brady?  Who knows but he is worlds above Lance or Darnold at this time.  He is a LOT more athletic than you think, he ran the RPO at ISU at times and was extremely good running the football.
I don't trust anyone after only 1 year. And neither should you.

Big difference Sticky, while I agree with you one year does not a career make, BUT, Purdy LOVES the game, Matt Kalil didn't.   Purdy beat Oregon in a New Years day bowl at IOWA STATE!!  He played Clemson to a 20-13 loss at IOWA STATE.   Extremely high football I.Q. and character guy.

Mike Silver noting that the 49ers couldn't even get someone to give them a 5th for Lance... excuse me, Awesome NFL Prospect Trey Lance!

So if Shanahan’s offense is so QB friendly, how come they all keep getting hurt?

I'm rooting for a guy like Purdy, from what I've read a great kid. And he for sure had a nice career in college, no doubt about it. But Year 2 for a QB is always much tougher, just ask Mac Jones.

I like Purdy and I like what the 49ers are doing, but mostly
I think they’ve had enough success and am hoping that they’re on the outside
looking in for a while.

That would be nice. But if Purdy can repeat what he did last year, and I'm not yet convinced of that, the 49ers have to be a big favorite in the NFC along with the Eagles.

aside from the injury bug,  the only thing likely holding them back would be QB play.

I see Purdy getting hurt or pulled for sucking,  and Darnold leading them to a SB ala Dilfer.
