Maybe, but would seem unlikely. 23 million now is about 14 million after rookies. If people are signing one year deals, there's no way to hide cap. Backup QBs are guys that I think are going to get squeezed a lot this year. Don't think you'll see back ups signing multi year deals...they'll take one year deals and hope to hit the market next year. So if we want someone like Dalton, that's probably just going to be 3 million off the cap right away. Alex Mack probably signs a 2 year deal at most. New minimums kick in this year and vet minds could be over 1 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on the anti-Justin Fields wagon but I think I'll hop on now. Don't really get why Mac wouldn't fit in the Shanahan scheme. The guy is basically a more polished Cousins(coming out) and from all accounts Shanahan prefers accurate pocket passers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I don't get what Riddick is thinking there unless he had to pick just one. Then I understand saying that Fields fit may be *better* than Mac's fit for the 9ers, but that doesn't mean Mac wouldn't be a fit, if you know what I mean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Shanahan isn't going Jones if he goes with a QB. He will want to switch it up from what he's been coaching. Lance or Fields are more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Just a hypothetical, let's say we pass on re-signing Williams and instead sign let's say Barrett or Ngakoue and just draft a OT in the first round. Would you prefer that or re-signing Williams and going with the best edge rusher in the first or second round? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking more about the blurb underneath him. There literally is no way Jones isn't a fit in Shanahans offense. For Lance i can get it. Kyle has worked with pocket passers almost excusively from Schaub to Ryan to Hoyer or every QB he brought in here. 1 minute ago, J-ALL-DAY said: Shanahan isn't going Jones if he goes with a QB.

The only ones that don't fit that bill are Griffin and Manziel who both got forced on him from above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty confident in him switching it up. He knows the ceilings with QBs who can operate in the pocket but can't offer much else. Shanahan sees how the league is moving.

On the other hand i feel we aren't going to be looking at a base edge and instead will spend that money on the secondary and going with a OT and edge with our first two picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I don't know if it was from his show today, but I saw a video from 4 minutes ago, J-ALL-DAY said: Just a hypothetical, let's say we pass on re-signing Williams and instead sign let's say Barrett or Ngakoue and just draft a OT in the first round. Would you prefer that or re-signing Williams and going with the best edge rusher in the first or second round? The edge class is middle heavy, not top heavy. Ultimately i don't have a ton of interest in edge players at 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Shanahan is pretty set in his ways and will probably never go full athletic QB. Will he look at say a Fields and think he is a good enough passer coupled with athletic ability and like them that sure is a possibility. I think Lance is a step further away from that and i doubt Shanahan wants to mold his offense to fit a guy like Lance. If he gets the choice between Lance on one side and Jones on the other i am fairly confident he goes Jones. With Fields he falls more in that middle ground of a QB that can run but also is a passer like say a Deshaun Watson over a Lamarr Jackson.

He's going to get overpaid for what he is. I'd sign Barrett, but no, I probably wouldn't splurge on the pass rushing class here outside of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I wouldn't mind it if we spend a couple of picks on edge rushers later on in the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 If I'm signing an edge player, it's probably Smoot, Okwara, someone of that ilk. Maybe Judon if he falls through the cracks, but I think he's overhyped for what he does. Too many sacks against tight ends and free blitzing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
