He'll sign the new deal in 2025 probably but it won't start until the extension kicks in in 2026. And the year 1 salary of that deal will likely be very low.
Of course that presumes they decide to pay him. Kyle Shanahan has enough control there that they may just not. Shanahan almost seems to view QB the same way his pop viewed RBs.
He believes - maybe correctly - that they're a product of his system and surrounding talent. And honestly, he likely has 2 SB trophies right now if he got QB better QB play. I think deep down he knows that.
So he may well decide to move on from Purdy rather than pay him. And it may work out really well for him.
Sign me up for watching them draft more Trey Lances. That was damned fine entertainment.
Made all the better by the fact that he was trying to replicate Mahomes. [Reply]

Lmao, I'm as big of a Veach fan as anyone, but Veach did absolutely everything he possibly could to sign Williams. I haven't seen anything that comes out and says what Veach offered Williams, but Williams says that talks the the 49ers stalled and he was going to sign with KC. I think within an hour Williams agent was calling him to tell him he was staying in SF. Williams wanted to stay in SF really bad, so you'd think all SF had to do is get close to KC or match them. I don't think SF came at him with a better deal than what KC did. [Reply]
He has pushed money back for the team and has only hit their cap for 30.5 million total the last 3 years, according to sportrac. He currently has 30m in dead $…so he’s making a smart move. [Reply]

I'd say there's a good chance they have to pay him at the end of this year. Sure he has another year left but he's making pretty much the minimum living in San Francisco, he's getting paid as soon as he possibly can and since he is making the minimum he won't have the usual benefit of being able to lessen the early year cap hits because there's no way to go but up from his current contract number.

I'd trade Purdy (if I could find a suitor) for as much draft capital as possible and attempt to use that and my first rounder to package a trade up for a QBOTF [Reply]
All for a guy with 19 collegiate starts and 318 thrown passes.
They're luckier than shit that they were able to get Brock Purdy at the very end of that draft or that trade could have decimated that team.
That's why it is hi-fucking-larious. That was as quality of entertainment as there has been in awhile.

I think he's pretty damn good. Especially for the pack of chewing gum he's playing for. I honestly don't know where I'd fall if he was getting 50M. Because he's going to get 50M.
I think he's better than Garappolo. But like Garappolo it's hard to differentiate what he's responsible for vs what Shanahan serves him on a silver platter or his play makers do the work for him.
If I were a 9ers fan and they dumped him, I'd probably be pissed. I'm not an entitled cunt and am not out here hating Mahomes thinking we should have beat him (maybe they shouldn't have blown the leads though - LOL). Sometimes you just have to accept that dude wasn't going to be denied. [Reply]

He's very good. I thought he played a good game in the Super Bowl. I would expect he'll get paid. The 49ers wandered through the desert for awhile before he came along wishing they had a guy like him. [Reply]
It was the same deal when he was a FA. He drew it out until someone gave him the most lucrative deal he could find. Which is fine, make that money. Just not surprising. [Reply]
