If you had to guess, what would Trent Williams’ 49ers contract be like? I will make a four-year deal worth about $ 85 million. They are not going to let you hit the market, right? Right?! Hope not.
Chris Simms sees the way for the Patriots to take Jimmy Garoppolo
“… What I’m thinking is going to happen, that the Jets are looking at Zach Wilson and (New York offensive coordinator) Mike LaFleur is going, ‘Wait, my brother, Matt LaFleur, is in Green Bay and he has Aaron Rodgers and wait, the guy who might be here at No. 2 – and I hope at No. 2 – he plays as Aaron Rodgers. Oh yes, I will execute the same attack that my brother runs in Green Bay, ”Simms told NBC Sports on Monday.
“So, I think that would leave Sam Darnold on the table. Deep in my heart or whatever, I could see it happening. Now, Darnold – just as we saw with the Lions-Rams in the business, coaches and people who go from place to place – that conversation happens and he goes there (San Francisco). Now New England and the 49ers also have a history together. (Kyle) Shanahan and (Bill) Belichick, we know there is a respect for it. It is widely documented. So I think when you connect the dots right there – it’s almost too obvious to not think it’s going to happen, honestly. “
Deebo Samuel’s unique ability impresses Richard Sherman, Trent Williams
“I don’t know about (being) on the abnormal athletics level, but Deebo is one of my favorite players too,” said Williams. “Because I feel like he has something that I don’t really see in many people.”
Williams described Samuel’s best asset as “contact balance”.
“It’s something you definitely never see in the receivers,” said Sherman. “You see that sometimes in running backs. But he is just a contact hunter and always thinks he is getting over it.
“He’s not just hunting just to run you over. He’s hunting because ‘I think I can run you over and keep going’ ”.
“I told him my first week there,” said Williams. “I’m like, ‘bro, I’ve never seen anything like this.’
“He has a balance of contact that is out of this world.”
Predict the starting NFL QBs for week 1 for all 32 teams: Where are Deshaun Watson, Jimmy Garoppolo?
New England Patriots: Jimmy Garoppolo
There is a feeling around the NFL that the 49ers are bluffing with their public support for Garoppolo. If they negotiate it, I would be surprised if they recover anything higher than a Saturday draft choice, regardless of the prices inflated in previous quarterback negotiations. The Patriots would do well to take over the $ 51.1 million unsecured in their contract over the next two years and hope to revitalize the boom of success he exhibited in 2016. They would also still have the resources to prepare a quarterback to pair with Garoppolo. often hurt. – Jeff Howe
San Francisco 49ers: Jimmy Garoppolo
The 49ers will certainly answer the phone if Watson’s trade talks heat up. But they don’t have the reservoir of draft choices that other teams can offer, which makes Watson a remote chance. They went to a Super Bowl with Garoppolo and are confident that he can improve. – Matt Barrows

Limit-free extensions and restructuring
Garoppolo and Laken Tomlinson represent the other two lines with the greatest potential for saving money in the spreadsheet, so they are colored in blue.
By converting Garoppolo’s base salary into a subscription bonus, 49ers can reduce his maximum limit reached in 2021 to just $ 13.5 million. They can also restructure their business less aggressively, so that a maximum limit of $ 20 million – the result of a possible partial restructuring – is also presented as an option in the drop-down menu.
While it is tempting to free up $ 13 million of limit space with one click, remember that major restructuring has potentially high costs. They push the cap for years to come and, as the 49ers have been building this strategy with other big businesses, they already have almost $ 145 million in liabilities from 2022, spread across just 19 contract players.
Jimmy Garoppolo still makes the 49ers competitive in 2021
Garoppolo was the quarterback who launched the winning touchdown for the game against Arizona in 2019. The pass went to Jeff Wilson Jr. on a route from Texas, while having a pass in his face. He was the quarterback to complete the pass to George Kittle against the Saints on the fourth down. That conclusion led to Robbie Gould’s winning field goal. Garoppolo was the defender to complete two thirds and 16s against Rams in the fourth period. Giving the 49ers an unmissable game towards the most important game of the season against Seattle away from home. Finally, in his cool and calm way, Garoppolo was the defender who did not turn the ball. He launched a beautiful pass for an open Kyle Juszyzck along the right sideline. In response to a clutch-time Seahawks touchdown, executing Kyle Shanahan’s game plan in the biggest game of the season.
