Everyone who wants to replace Jimmy G needs to seriously consider who is better. Looking at the list of starting QBs, there's fewer then like 6 I'd take over healthy Jimmy G. If you want to draft better, that's fine but the 49ers aren't going to pick high enough. So what are you going to do?

Here's my list of QBs I'd take over Jimmy G in no particular order:

Patrick Mahomes
Lamar Jackson
Deshaun Watson
Russell Wilson

Aaron Rodgers - Maybe
Dak Prescott - Maybe

Tua Tagovailoa - Potential

I’m laughing at that list but it’s worth noting that Jimmy was really only 100% for a single game this year so I am not sure how you evaluate that aside from being concerned about his reliability.

I feel like I am taking crazy pills when sports media or others constantly act like Garoppolo is above average in the ~ QB10-15 range. Putting him at QB ~8 seems insane. He is probably closer to QB20, with little ability to stage a comeback if they fall behind, he is a game manager who throws 10 random interceptions a year with no pressure on him to a defensive back that is just standing by himself or into triple coverage (on top of normal turnovers when DBs make good plays etc). He is Foles tier at best and the only thing making him look better than garbage is significantly above average offensive play calling and coaching for his whole career. The 49ers win when Garoppolo does not need to do anything and lose if they do need him to do something (though I guess that could be axiomatic because if they don't need him to do anything by default he is winning).

I am finding it hard to make a list of starting QBs that are objectively worse than him, since most of the ones like Darnold have a terrible team, but it is not a long list without going into QBs that are backups that have ended up starting. Maybe Darnold, Haskins, Trubs? I would have him in the same grouping as Lock, Foles, bad Minshew etc. Put Stafford on the 49ers and they won the SB last year and win 2 more games a season.

He is an inverse Alex Smith, where Smith might have been above average and looked terrible for the first half of his career due to bad coaching, Garoppolo is probably below average but looks better due to good coaching.

Oh yeah Kyler is definitely better. I dunno why I forgot about him. Tannehill leans on the run game just as much as Jimmy. I haven't watched Herbert too much tbh but sure, put him up there too.

Stafford and Burrow have suffered under bad coaching/bad rest of the team; it's fair to say they would do better under Shanahan.

Even putting everyone else listed as an improvement, it would be difficult to get any of them on the team.

There are a lot of valid reasons to get rid of Jimmy, but I want to know who the upgrade is.

Jimmy G is firmly in the tier of PA Boot system guys along with Goff, Tannehill and Cousins. You wouldn't dump him unless you have someone better and he runs the system well, but if a guy like Dak was in reach you would dump him in an instant.

Since I don't feel like being productive working, here are a few broad QB tiers:

QBs I feel comfortable saying are better than Garoppolo:
Murray
Wilson
Prescott
Mahomes
Josh Allen
Jackson
Watson
Tannehill
Brady
Ryan
Rodgers
Burrow
Roethlisberger
Brees
Herbert
Stafford

Likely better, but debatable:
Carr
Mayfield
Goff
Minshew
Wentz
Fitzpatrick

Garoppolo tier (loosely in rank order):
Cousins
Rivers
Bridgewater
Mullens
Garoppolo
Kyle Allen
Lock
Foles
Jones

Likely worse than Garoppolo:
Newton
Trubs
Darnold
Haskins

It feels like there is such a big tier drop off from "decent" QBs to not, that even if he was generously ranked QB 18 or whatever he would be closer to QB 25 in performance than QB15.

I did not realize I was so opinionated about Garoppolo until it was time to start typing about him.

I'd say it's a good list, but Wentz has been flat out awful this year (which seems to be a continuation of the end of last year), and it looks like Minshew mania is ending (sadly) as he's not making the step forward that he should be. I'd easily rank them as "likely worse."

I think Garoppolo belongs in the debatable tier instead of the Garoppolo tier.

Either way he's entirely mediocre, can't stay healthy, and they should dump him in an instant if there's anyone in FA or the draft they think is better.

Yeah and I'd flip Bridgewater up (he could easily have done what Garropolo did last year in the same situation). Maybe cousins too. Jimmy is just acceptable but has The Look.

While you definitely want to upgrade at QB, the conversation started as "will he be cut after this season". So it's not so much about who is better as it is "do you want to pay $26m+ for Garoppalo" as opposed to either less for another established QB or fight hard to try and land a potential up and comer. I don't see anyone top notch coming out with the exception that Dak doesn't get franchised and makes a full recovery.

Pain of Mind posted:

What QBs are available next year? No idea how cap space looks, but if the 49ers could replace Garoppolo with Prescott they would be quite good! Assuming they don't all get hurt again.

I would recommend going through the draft. Maybe targeting Justin Fields or Trey Lance maybe? You could also check out guys like Kyle Trask, Zach Wilson or Mac Jones although I don't like them that much. I don't think there will be as many quarterback needy teams this year so one of those guys might be available without moving up.

To me, the Jimmy thing is basically over. He's only a fraction better than the other two quarterbacks on the roster and sometimes he's worse. It's time to get the most out of this roster and this offense imo

Garoppolo reminds me of Joe Flacco. You know, that guy who won a super bowl (against the niners!) but then showed season after season afterward that actually he was just a basic, NFL replacement-tier competent who could certainly occasionally put together a great game, but who could absolutely not ever carry the team and definitely needed top-notch play calling, protection, and weapons in order to do well.

Of course all of this is academic, because what the Niners need to win is for their RBs, Kittle, and monstrous DL to be healthy. Joe Flacco, even today, could win another superbowl with that team and that coach. I don't care if Jimmy G stays in for the next six years, that gives the niners multiple years of good shots at a title. I'd be delighted to get someone really good in there! But we don't actually need it.

The real question is can you get someone else in there who is good enough for less money, so you can keep those necessary elements of the team around him

I do mentally bin Goff, Cousins, and Garoppolo together in that they can look all-pro one game and then look like they have never played football before and drank a 5th of vodka 2 minutes before the game started. The reason why I put Goff higher is that I feel he has a little more fun slinging ability. Watching 49er games it seems like Garoppolo pads his stats early in the game or with a reasonable lead, but then when he is under pressure to win the game through passing he falls apart. I knew the super bowl was over last year the second the 49ers fell behind because Garoppolo seems to get panicked and get worse in situations where the 49ers need his arm to win the game, and not their ground game or defense.

As someone who helped kick off this season's Jimmy panic here, I'd still call him passable and rank him around the middle of the league, which as noted is usually fine to keep the team competitive when our actual star players are available.

The broader problem is that there's almost zero free-agency market for even passable QBs; they're all locked up on other teams, and the draft is the only real option.

Also, I know Daniel Jones is still very young and on a significantly worse team, but he's unquestionably on a lower tier than Jimmy, c'mon.

Just double checked I didn't even realize that (as of right now) his $26.9m is 11th among QBs. That will definitely drop a few spots as others get paid, so... maybe keeping him on is not that crazy?
