PavlovsDogs Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Before this thread gets crapped on, hear me out: I live in the Bay Area - moved from NY 25 years ago and still bleed green. However, SF is my B team, and I'm raising my son to be a Niners fan (I believe if I gave this monkey from my back to his from 3000 miles away I'd get a call from Child Protective Services, but I digress). I watch a lot of Niners football. I think they are insane to move on from Jimmy G in the prime of his career for a Div II Quarterback. Looks, the dude just guts out wins. He can be clutch in the right situations. He can make all the throws. This offense is PERFECT for his skill set. He will elevate the offense. it will become obvious which wideouts are running precise routes, as he will throw guys open. The Great Aaron Rodgers didn't start until Season 4. I've seen enough of Jimmy ( and yes the boneheaded plays) to be convinced he could elevate the team's play, and set a standard for Zach to meet if he ever wants to be the starter. Queue the wolves, Jimmy haters, and Zach coddlers (and BTW I think Zach will evolve to be an excellent pro - I liked how he progressed towards the end of the season). I think 2 years of Jimmy, at a minimum, would make us a better team, and Zach a better QB. 2 11 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GangGreened Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 JD has already committed to Wilson by virtue of the “rookie clock” or “resetting the position” or whatever it was. Don’t agree with his approach, but it’s the one he’s committed to. That means he won’t look at QBs like Jimmy G 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LockeJET Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I hear you but you don’t draft a quarterback number 2 overall, Start him year one and then bench him year two and three. I’d love for Jimmy G to come here and be a back up but he will be able to start somewhere. For better or for worse Wilson is our quarterback for the next couple years but we definitely need a veteran back up. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rangerous Posted January 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 10, 2022 garapolo wouldn't have been sacked 9 times yesterday. he would've been injured after the third one. wilson is learning to be a game manager. he had nothing to throw to yesterday and zero run game. can't fault him for the loss. next season he'll do much better. as for garapolo being right for this offense, that may be but i doubt if douglas would've drafted wilson and traded darnold if saleh and lafleur thought he wasn't the right guy. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I do think the back up QB will be telling as to what they really think of Wilson. They see him everyday in practice, the analyze the film. They know what’s he learning and not. They know what’s in the WR’s. What’s on him etc. if they go out and get a Jimmy G - it’s pretty clear they have little faith in ZW being the guy. if the roll with Flacco and White - seems pretty clear to me they’re still really high on the The Big ZW. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Willie White Shoes Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Horrible idea. In today's NFL, the benefit of a drafting rookie QB is to get those 5 years on the rookie deal. To waste 3-4 of those years as a QB sits behind a vet makes absolutely no sense from a financial or competitive sense. Garappolo likely goes to a team that has no capable veteran QB and no quality young QB either - Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Denver, Washington, New Orleans. Plus, Garappolo is under contract for 2022, so the Jets would need to give SF draft picks to acquire him. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Not particularly a fan of JG or his cost or his fragility. I just want average, middle of the road, 15th or so ranked/rated QB play and production, to start with. I don't care who gives it to us. I just don't want to watch another season where our QB is ranked 32nd and we're out of contention by week 6. Feels like that is not asking too much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
