Don't think he is much of an upgrade from Big Ben the past couple years. That's a tough division. Pittsburgh could be considered #4 right now fighting it out w the Brownies. If we play them early in the season, we will face Mitch. If we play them late, we face Malik Willis😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With both him and Lance still on the roster, why would the 49ers pay for a former 1st rounder on his 3rd team in 3 seasons who hasn't played a game since 2020?

I though the rumors to the Giants was just poor journalism. If he gets over 20 mil, the Bills and Josh deserve a cut Actually he deserves himself choosing not to take any of the bad options he had last year and deciding to refocus getting the ghosts out. Good organization in general to play at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s why 49ers are looking at Mariota too. So yeah, Niners were definitely a spot he made sense. No indication if they were interested or not, but they are also stuck with Jimmy G right now because Watson trade will hold up Jimmy G. By the time he gets traded there may not be a lot left to pick from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 He said it was down to Steelers or Giants. I think he made the right call. While he would know the system in NY with Daboll, ownership there has made it real clear they're gonna do all they can to make Daniel Jones the guy. Mitch gets a much better chance to start where he's competing against a QB the Steelers don't have a major investment in with Rudolph. But it is interesting to see how this dude went from undesirable to "come win a starting gig" after a season in which all he did was kneel, handoff, run for a TD or a throw a pick. Understandable though, since there are quite a few QB-needy teams and the prospect group isn't great this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estro Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Sam Monson @PFF_Sam · 2h They just signed a QB for $15m a season. If that doesn't affect your status with the team, your status was a backup to begin with. Quote Tweet Gerry Dulac @gerrydulac · 3h The Steelers plan to have Trubisky challenge Mason Rudolph as the replacement for Ben Roethlisberger, per sources. The deal does not affect Rudolph's status with the team and he is not expected to be traded or ask for a trade. I'm not sure if Sam Monson, of PFF. Is just spitballong that'll be in the $15M range or if he's heard something, but this the first I've seen a value assigned to what Tribusky signed for. If it is indeed for $15M per year we are in line for a 3rd round comp. Pick assuming we have a net loss of FA's. A nice gift! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even consider him to be almost as good as Cousins. Now I'm really puzzled, because in fact, with Trubisky's 4 years as a Bear, the team's record was >0.500 (29-21) and in fact, the team was over .500 each year except for his rookie season. So if he's already done it, how can he be incapable of doing it? I don't think Trubisky is a top-10 QB in the league, but I think he's a capable starter who can win more often than he loses with the right pieces around him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
