Magox Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 1 hour ago, MJS said: Time will tell if he is right or wrong. Good QB's can be VERY difficult to find. Jimmy G is good. He isn't elite. He's in the Tannehill category. I think it’s a separate question if he should have let him go or if he let go a really good QB. Jimmy G plays intelligently and is mobile. He’s a solid starting QB but I don’t think he is top 15. I think he’s in that 16-20 range which is solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y2zipper Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Really good player, massive availability issue. 22-8, efficient passer until it's 30 starts in 4 years. Starting QB is the position where you have to have someone that can play 16. The issue is that the player to replace him isn't on the roster. 49ers strike me as a team that that could do the Wentz reclamation project.

DuckyBoys Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I commend Shanahan for ripping off the band aid SF has a a good defense and great running game. Why eat up cap space for a qb when he isn't asked to carry the team Fails when he has to and is often not available due to injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 2 hours ago, ProcessAccepted said: Brady is gone so he'd probably like the QB room a lot more. NE has the $$ to bring in talent to put around him. I think this is quite a likely outcome. Yeah but they need to spend it. And there isn't much talent at the skill positions in FA next year. 35 minutes ago, peterpan said: He will be in NE by March. Stupid move by the 9ers. Not necessarily.

What is his incentive to sign if they're not paying him big bucks and committing to him as the QB of the future? 3 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: The Falcons might be in total tear down though and as Beane showed in 2018 here if you are going to do that you can bear a single year of horrible cap hit.

It’s a safe vet floor for them til they have a young guy that can step up. he will be unlikely to get a large dollar long term commitment. He will possibly get low end starter money with year to year structure. Or I think likely much like cam, dalton, Winston, etc... take less to try to go to the right situation during the cap dip and hope to earn a payday later 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they were all cheap, unlike what Jimmy G will be. He's not going to sign with the Cheaters, or anyone else, for a 1 or 2 year cheap deal. Especially if he has other suitors, and he likely will.

I just don’t know - seems like you would want a definite answer at the position before this happens. I could see it - if somehow they can get Ryan or Stafford in place first, but even though Jimmy G is not a great QB - they win with him. I am not sure they are a better team with Ryan at QB. I definitely think this makes for a very interesting off-season for some of these teams - QB trades and cuts, lots of potential movement. This could get fun if the salary cap allows it.
