I feel the same way about Purdy. He's not an elite talent. His arm is average at best. Certain throws he isn't good at. The system and the playmakers inflated his stats. Once that starts to decline, and it will, he's gonna look very average.I for one am not sold on Purdy, I look for DCs to make life more difficult for him this season. Especially when he has to face NFC West opponents like the Rams. Teams usually seem to get up a little more for these divisional games.
I feel like the 49ers are gonna be in the same boat as the Cowboys were with Dak Prescott. They have a fairly good quarterback who is not elite. But they're gonna end up paying him elite money because they have no choice.
In 2025 they're gonna be in cap hell. They're already projected to be well over the cap next year. OTC says by 23 million. Spotrac says by 30 million. Their top 7 salaries are 183 million in 2025. And that doesn't include Purdy and Aiyuk. Bosa's cap climbs to 42 million in 2026 and 52 million in 2027. If he plays like he did in 2023 he'd be nowhere near worth the cost.
This year is boom or bust for them. No matter what happens they're gonna have to make some difficult decisions on who to cut. And their depth is razor thin. A few injuries could derail the whole season for them. Imagine them getting knocked out in the wild card round and regressing back to a sub .500 team next year.
Just thinking about what could, and probably will happen is giving me a huge schadenboner.
