The 49ers accept they have their fellow in quarterback Brock Purdy, but somebody with an backhanded association to the group accepts San Francisco overpaid in locking up the fourth-year flag caller to his eye-popping contract expansion.
San Francisco marked Purdy to a five-year, $265 million bargain, which previous NFL wide recipient T.J. Houshmandzadeh — who moreover is 49ers wide collector Brandon Aiyuk’s individual coach — accepts was an overpay.
I accept they did overpay for Brock Purdy,” Houshmandzadeh said Monday on FS1’s “Talk.” “I would have given Brock Purdy $47 million a year. That would have been the foremost I’m giving him. We required you final year. You went 1-6 against playoff groups. We had folks harmed — Christian McCaffrey was out, Trent Williams was out, Brandon Aiyuk got harmed — and you couldn’t truly get it done.
“I think Purdy could be a hell of a quarterback, but I’m not giving you money when you’ve appeared me that when we require you to require over, you can’t take over. When we require you to carry us, you can’t carry us. But at one point, they said Jalen Harms is overpaid. Presently, Jalen Harms is come up short on since he won a Super Bowl with the Falcons. On the off chance that Purdy takes the 49ers to the Super Bowl and they win it, at that point his contract is well worth it. Until he does that, he’s overpaid.”
Houshmandzadeh has weighed in on 49ers things some time recently, particularly when his client, Aiyuk, went through riotous contract arrangements with San Francisco final offseason.
Be that as it may, Houshmandzadeh’s comments don’t reflect Aiyuk’s position on his quarterback, and whereas Houshmandzadeh does believe Purdy could “be a hell of a quarterback,” he clearly accepts he isn’t worth very the level of money related commitment the 49ers made in him.
