Garoppolo to the 49ers

Looks like Kyle will give Jimmy Garoppolo a test-drive as 49ers QB of the future:

New England Patriots trade Jimmy Garoppolo to San Francisco 49ers for draft pick

If he performs well, I cannot see John Lynch breaking the bank to sign Kirk in the offseason.

Re: Garoppolo to the 49ers

This isn’t a tryout, Grap is the 49ers qb for awhile.

That would be great for the Skins, as SF gave Kirk his greatest leverage. LA Rams are no longer an option either, with Goff playing well this season. I still see the Jets and the Jags as two significant competitors for Kirk's services.

Dumb trade by 49ers. Why not ride the season out and draft a QB at the top of the draft

This. Expect a contract extension soon.

Re: Garoppolo to the 49ers

"Garoppolo, who will turn 26 on Thursday, was a second-round pick in 2014 whom 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan reportedly graded highly when he was the Browns offensive coordinator at the time."

Re: Garoppolo to the 49ers

What if this means the Patriots want Cousins to be Brady's replacement?

Patriots typically do not spend a lot of money in free agency. As someone mentioned, Cousins will likely end up with Jets, Jags, or Browns if he hits free agency.

Belichick isn't giving Kirk big money to be Brady's backup for the next 3+ years.

Because they got their guy for a 2nd and still have their top pick.

It was a brilliant move by the 49ers. They only gave up ONE second round pick for Jimmy G. ONE SECOND ROUND pick!! That is a freakin' bargain. Now the 49ers have all sorts of avenues in next year's draft, plus they have a quarterback who's learned from the GOAT. He's well established and ready to play. And not only that, the 49ers get to get him worked in this season. By next season, JG will know the system and be ready to go. The 49ers can now focus on rebuilding their offensive line and their defense.

And this is great for us! Greatly reduces Cousins' chances of moving on. I would be shocked if he went to Cleveland or NY Jets. The Cardinals could be a strong possibility as well as the Jags, but the leverage is strongly back in the 'skins favor in my opinion.

JG has some good NFL game tape out there. None of the draft picks do. He's been around a winning organization for several years, that gamble is a lot better than going for Darnold or Rosen. Good move by the 49ers.

Re: Garoppolo to the 49ers

Cardinals, Vikings, Jacksonville would be my front runners for Cousins.

Re: Garoppolo to the 49ers

This will take an attractive suitor off the table for Cousins, but the reality of the NFL is that there will always be plenty of suitors for a decent qb that doesn't have to be bought with draft picks.

Re: Garoppolo to the 49ers

Imgaine this scenario: Eli Manning retires at the end of the season and the Giants manage to sign Cousins. Then we get torched by Wentz, Prescott and Cousins for the foreseeable future.

This move earns my seal of approval.

Jimmy has a chance to be good and he should easily be better than what they have at the QB position now.

I think the timing of this move is excellent. By bringing in Jimmy G. now the team should be energized and Jimmy will have an opportunity to settle in so he'll be ready to go next season.
