Ok-- so let's say that he wants to get paid like a QB and teams feel that's too risky because he doesn't have a sample size of snaps worth anything at QB. So where does that land then? You could very conservatively estimate that he gets significantly less than half of the going rate for a good starting QB. You're still paying him 10M/season to be a gadget in your offense. That's on top of a 2nd round pick. That would be ridiculously stupid. If Gutekunst did that, I'd hope the board issued him his walking papers the next day. 2. Yes, and that price is something just under 5M on a one year deal. Remember what I said however long ago when you asked me what he was worth as an offensive weapon? I said 5M. And now they're paying him just under that and you're saying "told you so!" <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/confused.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:" data-shortname=":confused:" />3. If they go into the season with only Brees and Hill at QB, then I will be forced to admit that they view him as more of a legit, true QB (i.e. not just an offensive weapon) than I do. I continue to think that he only works in this league as a starting QB if you completely change the offensive system to suit him, a la Baltimore and Jackson.</blockquote>
