Absolutely nothing they do should be trusted. To be fair Wentz has put up MVP like numbers before. It was only for a season, which he got hurt in, but Jimmy G hasnt and will never put those numbers up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briantw Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 This is why having two teams in LA is stupid. No one gives a shit about either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the 2017 Eagles The Team was what elevated the play of Wentz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I think the difference between Garoppolo and Wentz's performance this year was very marginal, and frankly negligible, the point remains that - especially considering Wentz's contract is voidable after next year - the two should have around the same trade value. I'd posit the main reason they don't is because the Colts just traded for Wentz last year, giving up draft capital I'd be perfectly happy getting for Garoppolo btw, and already want to move on from him. That's not a good look. Whereas Garoppolo handled his situation admirably, his locker room still loves him, and he even maintains a good relationship with the organization even though everyone knows he's gonna be traded.

Jace, Extat Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I think Garappolo would do better in the Colts than Wentz did. He's just not gonna win a Superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else you can at least say the Niners did it properly unlike the teams rumored to be willing to deal for the likes of Jimmy or Wentz.

I'd probably take that, but Jimmy is good enough to get the Colts into the playoffs. That 2nd next year is going to be closer to a 3. Heck, Colts would have been in the playoffs this year with Jimmy... he wouldn't have lost to Jacksonville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going with Jimmy got hurt, so Sam Ehlinger got the start and never relinquished it because he turns out to be a 6th round stud right out of the gates. He definitely wouldn't have lost to Jacksonville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine didn’t and it’s a major reason, along with his interception rate, why I don’t think the colts would even have had a shot with the guy. But I’m a guy stuck in Kirk Cousins hell who thought his skill set would be great for a team with all the pieces around him to succeed. So, I’d put myself squarely in the football dumbass category.

DMC Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Saw an interesting tidbit on Niners Nation - the last time the Niners didn't make a 1st round draft pick was in 1996. That's because in 1995 they traded their 30th pick, along with their 3rd rounder (94th), a 4th rounder (119), and their 1996 first rounder to move up to the 10th pick and draft..J.J. Stokes. That's quite the haul - and while I remember they traded up to draft Stokes I did not recall the details. Makes it clear high 1st rounders have always had extremely high value. Anyway, obviously Stokes didn't quite work out. Luckily they made up for it the next year by picking some guy named Terrell Owens with the 89th pick in the 3rd round.

Rhom Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I know this is mainly just Lynch using Schefter as a mouthpiece to drive up Jimmy’s value by acting like they may keep him… but it confirms my own paranoia about Lance being ready. So it makes me nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywin et al. Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Also kills the fun idea of the Niners trading both QBs and ending up with Rodgers. And I wouldn't sweat it too much @Rhom, the best looking rookie QB this year won a game passing three times and looking like he wasn't even a HS QB in the Pro Bowl skills competition.
