49ers name Sam Darnold QB2; will explore options with Trey Lance

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero said that trading Trey Lance is a possible scenario. Lance was not at practice on Wednesday.

This seemed inevitable. Kudos to the Niners for not spending too much time in the land of the fallacy of sunk cost. They're smart to move on and just get whatever they can.

The more urgent subtext of this is that Shanahan believes Purdy is the guy for the foreseeable future.

Lance is done

RIP Trey Lance, but you were never going to unseat Football Jesus.

It would be hilarious if Lance somehow ended up here & he turned out decent. Pete & John should pull the trigger just for the laughs.

Lance needs coaching and reps.

So if he goes to the right system and coaching staff he might develop.

If he cant beat out Sam Darnold then yes, it’s time for them to cut their losses.

Precisely.

I wasn't a big fan of his coming out of that draft for that exact reason. He was extremely raw as a prospect.

If the cost is only a 5th or 6th Rounder (buy low), then I'm perfectly good taking a chance on him. He can take over as the #2 & replace Lock next year. See if he can develop. If not, that's fine too. The cost is minimal.

Lance should go to the XFL or the USFL. Just like Alex McGough, DiNucci, and Taamu have done. He will get the reps there and may even be a top QB. Probably would help his mindset as well.

This video is the bomb! I love Grant Cohn and the way he manages to trash Lance, Darnold, Purdy and Shanahan in 120 seconds of nasty, bitter vitriol. Why does he hate the team he covers so much?

I don't see Lance beating Drew Lock. I think Lock might be the next guy. They're going to let him develop under #7

Yeah and he needs to go to a team that is not ready to win now and that he can grow with. Multi year project

 

[hgwellz12]

I'm just here so I don't get fined...and to see Frodo's reaction

 

[FrodosFinger]

That face you make when you get demoted to the scout team

With his limited skill set he won’t be doing any growing bud. Stop making excuses he stinks.

Stinky ass on the bench dog!!!!

He's a giant troll. Says the most outrageous things for attention & clicks. He's mastered it.
