We have our whopper trade of 2017.

The New England Patriots have traded quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to the San Francisco 49ers for a 2018 second-round pick, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per a source involved.

ESPN first reported the news.

Around The NFL will have more on this story shortly.

Holy cow NFC West making moves

Rumor is just for a 2nd round pick. Considering how much Cheatriots fans thought they would get for him that's laughable

For a 2018 2nd round pick

This is either really bad or laughable. Don’t think we will know until they have an actual team around him.

The question will be which of the 2nd's that the Whiners have theirs or the Saints.

Has to be the whiners. Basically a late 1st.

What a deal for the 49ers. Garoppolo is going to be a stud. As a Rams fan hate this trade. SF just got a lot better with this move

Good move for them but I hope he is a system guy and turns our horrible without the patriots.

i wonder how much they're gonna have to pay him to stay there after this season.

Funny that the Cheaters traded away both of Brady's backups and got so very little in return for what is being tabbed as 2 franchise QB's. Makes you wonder how good they really are since BB doesn't trade away good players.

And the CJ Beathard era just got under way...

 

[shovelpass]

So the Pats have a 40 year old QB and have traded away both of their viable backups this season. Who's their backup incase the oldman goes down?

At the least they'll have to franchise him.
