Do they draft a QB this year?

Do they draft a QB this year?

Probably, but not early.  They had Tanner Mordecai on the practice squad last year.  He has potential as a good backup

T.O.'s take on Purdy v. Dak:

“I would take Brock Purdy over Dak Prescott any day, number one,” Owens stated on KNBR. “And I think, if you look at his production and how he’s played, a guy that has gone from the last pick of the draft, ‘Mr. Irrelevant,’ to relevant…I think when you have a guy like that—when you surround him with the right talent, he can be an elite quarterback.”

Purdy demonstrated elite-level play during the 2023 season when supported by a healthy roster. He set a new franchise record with 4,280 passing yards in a single season and led the 49ers to a Super Bowl appearance.

Big changes.  Deebo gone.  Reportedly listening to offers for Aiyuk.  Trying to get Juice to take another pay cut.  Hargrave about to be cut.  Greenlaw hitting free agency.  I have no idea how all of this will play out. 

[Dos Equis]

All draft picks have been signed.  Optimistic about this season.  I wish the dog days of summer were over already.

The Niners facility must be built on some kind of cursed Pet Sematary.  First Bosa then Fred Warner.  Hard times.

They are getting decimated by injuries this year. Shows you how good Shanahan is to still win games.

Yeah this might be the first time he wins coach of the year.

Now Bryce Huff is out for multiple weeks.  Somebody must have a Niner voodoo doll somewhere.

They must have the worst luck with injuries ever since Shanahan has been coach. Maybe they should look at changing the strength & conditioning coach and off-season workout program.

I agree.  I think they did change their strength and conditioning coach within the past few years, but whatever they are currently doing is not working.

It's possible they are just drafting injury prone players. Nick Bosa had a torn ACL in high school and torn abs at Ohio State before he ever made it to the NFL and has 2 more torn ACLs since then. His body is so explosive he rips apart just moving.

Shanahan has a history of drafting injury-prone players, but they have gotten a little better with that.  Still, it doesn't explain the number of injuries to so many players.
