Wife and I started watching the show over the weekend and it's pretty good. But yea ASB is good. IIRC he got snubbed for Pro Browl. Dude had a year. He's also fluent and German and I believe he speaks French as well.
For most of the article, Barnwell provides a lot of evidence that Purdy is a very good QB and deserves whatever mega deal he eventually signs. To you and I, the numbers are insane but that's just a reflection of the NFL's strong growth year after year. QB is very difficult to project out but Purdy seems to be at least as good as Trevor Lawrence, who recently got a record-matching deal.As a 9er fan I'm totally rooting for him to get paid, but +$300m seems like a scary proposition. I'm not a contracts guy, just don't know the inner workings, but like Barnwell pretty much said, it'd blow up that roster. It's most likely going to change significantly after this year (maybe even during this season if we can't come to an agreement with BA and now Trent Williams) anyways. Would a contract similar to Mahomes' 10-year deal be in the cards?
They need salary caps for players.. I would that if they put it up for a vote players would go for it. Even if you capped the QB position at 10% of the salary cap it would be like 22.5 million a year.Extend Brock Purdy ($325 million?!) or keep the core together? Every angle of the 49ers' looming decision
One of the most fascinating decisions of the next year has to do with the 49ers' plan at quarterback, where Brock Purdy still has doubters.www.espn.com
Bill Barnwell thinks Purdy gets well in excess of $300M. He also poses the question of whether the Niners (or any NFL team, really) would be "brave" enough to trade away its franchise QB instead of paying him market value. If I'm not mistaken, the Redskins letting Kirk Cousins walk is the rare exception.
It's pretty gross, but he thinks Dak Prescott and Jordan Love will both crack $60M AAV too.
I mainly disagree. They have individual "caps" in the NBA of at most 35% of the team's cap. This distorts the market in two ways.They need salary caps for players.. I would that if they put it up for a vote players would go for it. Even if you capped the QB position at 10% of the salary cap it would be like 22.5 million a year.
No they don't its the same set of rules for every team.They need salary caps for players.. I would that if they put it up for a vote players would go for it. Even if you capped the QB position at 10% of the salary cap it would be like 22.5 million a year.
I just don't see the Niners pulling the trigger and trading him. He doesn't have the leverage, they can tag him next year and again the following if they wanted to really play hard ball. I'm sure they would try to "do right" by him, but that is if it still falls within range of expected compensation for the team.rumor is that it might be Pickens headed to 49'ers , Browns are in the running as well, their package includes A.Cooper+2nd round pick
/also it looks like Vikes rookie JJ McCarthy will be having knee surgery and is likely out for the year

49ers' Pearsall 'stable' after being shot in chest

I wouldn't read that as whether or not to charge. It's more like what is the specific charge, and will the suspect be tried as an adult."District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said a charging decision on the suspect, whom she noted is a juvenile, will be made Tuesday or Wednesday."
really?
Wouldn't be surprised if he was charged as a juvenile and he gets a light sentence because no one actually died. The legal system is "flexible" but not flexible. If it wasn't a celebrity WR, then it would absolutely be the normal course...here in the east, the society of delinquents have become well practiced in carjacking and the hidden jurisprudence is powerless to heavily punish juvenile misconduct."District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said a charging decision on the suspect, whom she noted is a juvenile, will be made Tuesday or Wednesday."
really?
