49ers make Garoppolo highest paid NFL player

[The Franchise]

Jimmy Garoppolo just got paid.

The San Francisco 49ers made the free-agent quarterback the highest-paid player in NFL history on Thursday, signing Garoppolo to a five-year contract. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported that the deal is worth $137.5 million, per sources, and is the biggest deal in NFL history on an average-per-year basis.

Garoppolo joined John Lynch's Niners in a surprising midseason trade from the New England Patriots and, within three weeks in the building, earned the starting role. In six games and five starts, Jimmy G tore up the league, completing 67.4 percent of his passes for 1,560 passing yards, seven touchdowns and five interceptions. Garoppolo was slated to be an unrestricted free agent in March.

Around the NFL will have more on Garoppolo's pay day shortly.

[Sassy Squatch]

Cousins just got an erection for some reason.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

These contracts are getting out of hand.

5 Starts....?

[RunKC]

Looks like $27.5 million average. Cousins is going to ask for more LMAO

[MahiMike]

Wow and the pats got squat. Love it.

[Buehler445]

Well OK then

[staylor26]

Looks like $27.5 million average. Cousins is going to ask for more LMAO

KnowMo thought Cousins was getting less than that LMAO

[RunKC]

The best part is that Drew Brees is most likely going to top this in the next month making Cousins price tag even higher LMAO

[Ragged Robin]

IMO it would have been clever for them to just trade his ass while his hype train is in full force, would have been worth more than they traded for him which is super high value for someone who hasn't proven much yet. That would have put them in position to get the most out of the draft and still be in a good place to bid for Cousins who is more of a sure thing production wise.

These contracts are getting out of hand.

5 Starts....?

along with 7TD 5INT :)

[BryanBusby]

KnowMo thought Cousins was getting less than that LMAO
Well yeah, we established he's a fucking retard a long time ago.

[Skyy God]

These contracts are getting out of hand.

5 Starts....?

Probably not Super guaranteed.

[Sassy Squatch]

74 million guaranteed. Knowmo wept.

[SPchief]

Absurd

[Gravedigger]

In six games and five starts, Jimmy G tore up the league, completing 67.4 percent of his passes for 1,560 passing yards, seven touchdowns and five interceptions

This part makes me chuckle, and gives me hope that it blows up in their face. Those are solid numbers, but in no way are they "tore up the league" numbers. This is worse than when the Chiefs went off the sample size of Matt Cassel during his one year of starting before giving him multiple years. I think Garropolo is better than Cassel, but only time will tell.

[ChiefGator]

Daaamn. That seems nuts. I thought he would get tagged so they could kick the tires on him one more year. Surely the contract he would have gotten next year, even if he looked like Montana out there, wouldn't have been much larger than this.

[Beef Supreme]

I don't know how you field a team with a cap hit like that.

[ModSocks]

At this rate you have to wonder if Mahomes will clip the 40M/per mark by the time his contract comes due...if he is what we hope he is.

[ChiliConCarnage]

Probably not Super guaranteed.

Yeah, there have to be serious outs in this deal. wow

[Dartgod]

IMO it would have been clever for them to just trade his ass while his hype train is in full force, would have been worth more than they traded for him which is super high value for someone who hasn't proven much yet.

along with 7TD 5INT :)

He was a free agent.

[vailpass]

I don't know how you field a team with a cap hit like that.


Agreed. The percentage of the cap QBs are taking up is getting unmanageable. The owners would seem to have to do something with this in the next CBA. They got the rookie deals under control, this though will be a much tougher solution.

[SPchief]

Rogers is gonna make 33mil per year

[O.city]

It’s only what, 71 guaranteed?

That’s not a terrible deal for the 9ers

[RunKC]

I don't know how you field a team with a cap hit like that.

You draft well.

[O.city]

The cap goes up the qbs are still around the same percent of the cap as the old guys did.

[staylor26]

Well yeah, we established he's a fucking retard a long time ago.

Touché

[Skyy God]

74 million guaranteed. Knowmo wept.

So it’s basically 3/75.

That’s pretty much the going rate these days.

[JakeF]

Cousins will get 30m per

[O.city]

The 9ers have an unreal cap space amount so they can front load the ahitkoit of as well

[BryanBusby]

Cousins will get 30m per
That's why I say let the Broncos sign him. No way he doesn't wreck that roster.

[DaneMcCloud]

The 9ers have an unreal cap space amount so they can front load the ahitkoit of as well

The Salary Cap is rising more than $10 million per year for the foreseeable future, especially after the Verizon and Fox TNF deals, so Garappolo's deal is rather reasonable.

[JakeF]

That's why I say let the Broncos sign him. No way he doesn't wreck that roster.
That's why the Redskins didn't keep Cousins, he wants a true 30m per contract. That's going to wreck anyone's salary cap after awhile.

[DaneMcCloud]

That's why the Redskins didn't keep Cousins, he wants a true 30m per contract. That's going to wreck anyone's salary cap after awhile.

:rolleyes:

[bigjosh]

Crazy to think that a guy with 6 starts in his career is getting the highest contract in NFL history.

Kirk will beat him.

Perhaps Brees too at a lesser timeframe.

[Gravedigger]

Just like in baseball this offseason, teams won't be open forever to signing these ludicrous contracts and hurting their team for someone who isn't a Super Bowl caliber QB. I'd like to see the teams turn the tables on them TBH.

[BigCatDaddy]

At one point does over paying for a QB go out of favor?

If Mahomes is not a top 5 QB but say 6-10 range in 3 years do you draft a replacement or pay high dollar to keep him?

[wazu]

At one point does over paying for a QB go out of favor?

If he’s top 5 you keep him. Problem is teams pay anybody who is top 20 as if they’re top 5.

[bigjosh]

I dont even want to think about what a QB contract will look like 5 years from now.

[Red Dawg]

Holy shit balls! Highest paid player and for nothing. He's played in 6 games
My god we will have to give Mahomes 100 mill per year. SF is insane.

[BigCatDaddy]

If he’s top 5 you keep him. Problem is teams pay anybody who is top 20 as if they’re top 5.

Agreed. Which is why Im saying good to very good but not elite..At what point to you start going cheap at the QB spot and investing funds elsewhere?

[RunKC]

I could see the new CBA making a “max player” type deal where you can only pay a player to a certain percentage of the cap.

Matt Stafford was the highest paid player and his highest cap hit of $31.5 million would have been roughly 17.5% of the current cap.

Maybe a rule that a max contract of 20% of your cap and no higher would be a good thing for teams.

[Red Dawg]

This shit is out of control and a reason so many teams suck. They have to pay too much against their cap for a QB. If Brady didn't take a massive discount would they win like they have? Hell no.

[O.city]

At one point does over paying for a QB go out of favor?

If Mahomes is not a top 5 QB but say 6-10 range in 3 years do you draft a replacement or pay high dollar to keep him?

Pay him

[KC_Lee]

So another NE / Brady back up makes bank based off a small body work?

Nice work if you can get it.

[O.city]

They’re projecting and paying for future value of what they think he’ll be

Better chance of getting burned that way but it’s the way you should do it. He could outperform said deal. An old free agent is t gonna over perform the deal you hope he hits even

[Frosty]

Brady makes less than market value and it allows the Pats to keep a good team around him (maybe they are paying him under the table or whatever, but still...). I don't know why more QBs don't do that. I understand making as much as you can but if you are on a consistently winning team, you are going to make a lot of money in endorsements and you aren't going to be a vegetable because the team can't afford to keep a good o-line in front of you.

Maybe tie the contract to the cap so if it goes up X percent, so does your contract but still keep it affordable enough to have other good players. :shrug:

Until he over peforms and bitches about his deal.

[O.city]

Until he over peforms and bitches about his deal.

So? Either sign him to a new deal or move on.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

They'll frontload the shit out of this because they have over $100M in cap space and end up in decent shape for the future.

Brady can do that because he married such a rich bitch. If he didn't then he would have wanted more.

[O.city]

Only other option I see would be franchising Him and letting him play a year

Would be what I’d have done but that leaves open a possibility of having to pay more than you’d like if he goes out and has a great year.

Probably smart to just pay him and be done with it

[KChiefs1]

Rogers is gonna make 33mil per year

$35-40 million.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

7 TDs in 6 games ROFL ROFL Tearing up the league ROFL

[Kaepernick]

At one point does over paying for a QB go out of favor?

If Mahomes is not a top 5 QB but say 6-10 range in 3 years do you draft a replacement or pay high dollar to keep him?

You never let a true franchise QB go. If Mahomes is just below top 5 range, YOU PAY THE MAN and you enjoy your playoff wins.

Everybody with a top QB eventually winds up in the same boat with exhorbitant QB cost, so you end up with a level playing field among them. Havibg a top QB is the most important thing for any team. If you are fortunate enough to have one, you say "thank you sir may I have another" and you then laugh yor ass off at the Browns and Jets and Redskins.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Jimmy is Alex with more turnovers...

[DRM08]

Rodgers should demand about $50m per year based on this news.

[Ming the Merciless]

sandy vagina just swallowed like 500 sleeping pills

[Ming the Merciless]

Jimmy is Alex with more turnovers...

gotta disagree with you here

I went to a game in SF (vs the Titans that took us out of the playoffs) and this kid really is something special.

I think they have got a winner in Jimmy Grapes

I saw him do a quick snap at the end of that game , where 99.9% of QB's wouldve spiked the ball...

a quick snap and ballsy throw for an extra 10 yards that won them that game...

Alex would not have made that play , I dont think...if you JUST watch that last drive of the SF v Titans game you will see that Jimmy G has something alex doesnt

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Jimmy Grapes ROFL

[BlackHelicopters]

Recidivism. Repeat offender.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

6-10 next year...

[Bewbies]

Rodgers, Brees and Ryan are all getting new deals.

And then Cousins on the open market.

If you want Cousins you really want those other 3 to sign first so you kind of set a ceiling...

[Bewbies]

And if you’re those other 3 you wait for Cousins so you can negotiate based open a deal that had multiple bidders.

[Karlos]

Agreed. The percentage of the cap QBs are taking up is getting unmanageable. The owners would seem to have to do something with this in the next CBA. They got the rookie deals under control, this though will be a much tougher solution.

It just means other positions will start losing out on money.

[O.city]

The percent of the cap the qbs are taking up isn’t really changing with the cap going up

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Still no excuse to pay this clown that much...none. 6 fucking games...

[Ming the Merciless]

Still no excuse to pay this clown that much...none. 6 ****ing games...

i kind of agree...i mean i see it as some irrational exuberance but if its like a 5 or six year deal it might look okay by year 5 with all of the increases...

those guys are pretty in love with him, and if he wins a bunch of games and has them in playoff territory in a couple years i would think they might say its worth it...

seems like teams are way overpaying qb's i dunno

[jaa1025]

They are going to regret that. He was ok in his 5 or 6 starts. Nothing screamed anything close to highest played player. I think he has a chance of being a top 10-15 player consistently.

[bdj23]

So another NE / Brady back up makes bank based off a small body work?

Nice work if you can get it.

Imagine being Charlie Weiss

[RealSNR]

Over fucking rated.

[hitchief]

They are going to regret that. He was ok in his 5 or 6 starts. Nothing screamed anything close to highest played player. I think he has a chance of being a top 10-15 player consistently.

Is that wishful thinking on your part cause from what I saw, he looked great with the talent he had surrounding him?

His weapons and line are nowhere near what we had so with all the money they still have and picks they should be in good shape with a young stud at qb, kinda like here.

[Otter]

These contracts are getting out of hand.

5 Starts....? Absolutely. Pretty good potential to become Matt Cassel part deux.

[wazu]

Still no excuse to pay this clown that much...none. 6 fucking games...

That’s 6 more games than many teams traditionally had drafting top first round QBs. If they can take advantage of their cap situation and front load it he seems like a pretty solid investment.

[wazu]

True Fans: “That money should be used on their O-line!”

[Skyy God]

Brady makes less than market value and it allows the Pats to keep a good team around him (maybe they are paying him under the table or whatever, but still...).

Brady has a supermodel for a wife and likely a handshake ownership deal with Kraft.

Those conditions aren’t really replicatable.

[Skyy God]

Absolutely. Pretty good potential to become Matt Cassel part deux.

Jimmy GQ is light years better than Casshole.

[Discuss Thrower]

At one point does over paying for a QB go out of favor?

When around 50% of the playoff field is the same group of teams with their own drafted and developed "Legion of Boom" defenses from season to season.

So, never.

that's a way better gamble than overpaying guys based on past value (cough* Chiefs* cough)

[Setsuna]

No California based team should have this much money to throw around. How do they even generate revenue let alone a profit. No one goes to their games.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

True Fans: “That money should be used on their O-line!”

No, it should be used on a homegrown QB, not a Patriot castoff turd.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

that's a way better gamble than overpaying guys based on past value (cough* Chiefs* cough)

They hust signed another team's seconds to big money. Something the Chiefs are all familiar with. How is this any different than the guys they traded for based on a couple games? It isn't.

[wazu]

No, it should be used on a homegrown QB, not a Patriot castoff turd.

Usually would agree, but this situation is unique. Garoppolo seems to have been cast off due to some bizarre factors, and immediately flashed the potential to be a special player for San Fran. They can pay him this while still surrounding with talent. It’s not like they’re bringing in some game manager retread.

He was cast off for one reason. Kraft loves Brady. That's it. Bill followed his orders to get him off the roster because Brady wanted to still play. They will regret it when Brady looks like shit at 41 and they go in the tank for the next 10 years.

He is not even ar a game manager retread level yet. Overpaid retread as of now.

Yeah... I get it. But at what point do you let an expensive Cousins walk and try to draft another Cousins?

True

But to be fair on Cousins, they could have had him cheaper had they not fucked that all up.

[DaneMcCloud]

This shit is out of control and a reason so many teams suck.

Good fucking god

[DaneMcCloud]

6-10 next year...

Are you fucking kidding me?

The 49ers closed out the season at 6-10 with Garappolo starting 5 games.

[DaneMcCloud]

It just means other positions will start losing out on money.

No, it does not, fucktard

Well, yes, it IS very different.

Do you even watch football or do you just make stupid fucking comments every day ("Reggie Ragland is a JAG)?

Garapollo is 7-0 as a starter. He started 5 games for the 49ers and they kicked the living shit out of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

He's a 67% passer, was highly rated coming out of college and sat behind the best QB of all time for nearly 4 full seasons.

The 49ers were 1-10 when he took over as the starter and finished 6-10.

Anyone that actually watched the 49ers with him at QB knows that he's a special QB.

[Sandy Vagina]

sandy vagina just swallowed like 500 sleeping pills

why's that? I'm a Jimmy G fan, and pleased to see this news. :hmmm:

[Sandy Vagina]

Jimmy is Alex with more turnovers...

eh.. Jimmy G will indeed take more risks. He may just get away with it, since he does have a more live arm and quicker release.

[Sassy Squatch]

His team averaged 28.5 PPG with him as the starting QB. Pretty fucking good.

[Chiefshrink]

So another NE / Brady back up makes bank based off a small body work?

Nice work if you can get it.

49ers just "Matt Casseled" themselves.:D

[Skyy God]

Are you ****ing kidding me?

The 49ers closed out the season at 6-10 with Garappolo starting 5 games.

And some pretty garbage receivers.

[Skyy God]

49ers just "Matt Casseled" themselves.:D

Stay consistent, Chiefs “Shrink”

[DaneMcCloud]

And some pretty garbage receivers.

No tight end, poor receivers and offensive line in desperate need of upgrades.

Garappolo transformed that team like a Franchise QB should. He didn't panic, found open receivers and his running backs played lights out for him.

People on CP are just plain uneducated. Garappolo broke Tony Romo's passing records at Eastern Illinios, several teams had a 1st round grade on him and many liked him more than Derek Carr.

He sat in New England behind Brady and the most important aspect of doing so was learning to prepare, week in, week out, 52 weeks a year.

He was extremely poised with the 49ers, led them to a 5 game winning streak and proved that the game wasn't too big for him.

With the Cardinals and Seahawks in major flux, the NFC West will be a battle for years between Jared Goff and the Rams and Garappolo and the 49ers.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Sure makes Alex look like a Plymouth 4 door but justifies the money DC dropped.

Why isn't Lenny Dawson on the record on all this? What did he make adjusted for inflation?

I don’t exactly know what his ceiling is but I’d rather have Jimmy G than a guy like Cousins.

I don’t exactly know what his ceiling is but I’d rather have Jimmy G than a guy like Cousins.

If the Chiefs had dumped Alex Smith in early 2017 and traded for Jimmy G., they'd have been in the Super Bowl this year.

The guy took an otherwise shitty and depleted 49ers team to Chicago and beat their very good defense, beat the Jags defense, beat the Titans defense and the Rams defense led by Wade Phillips.

The sky is the limit for him.

I'm guessing Beathard will be the projected long-term backup. Not a bad situation for the 49ers. Beathard wasn't great, but I've definitely seen bigger peanuts in turds.

While there is no doubt Jimmy G projects to be good to great, let’s not get carried away here. The Jags and Rams had already locked up high seeds, and even if starters were playing, they were coasting. Wins against Chicago, Houston and Tennessee aren’t exactly ones that mark the makings of a contender. SF dropped a lot of money on a guy who’s body of work is small. They best surround him with some weapons on short order.

There was no way the Chiefs were sniffing a Super Bowl this year regardless of who the qb was. That defense was soft. As soon as Berry was done, so was this defense. The pass rush was anemic and musical chairs across from Peters plagued the team all year.

I don’t think you watched the 49ers versus the Jags or Titans.

The Jags imploded because Garappolo was carving them up. Their defense had several unsportsmanlike penalties because they couldn’t stop him.

The Titans went 1-3 in December.

They best surround him with some weapons on short order.

There was no way the Chiefs were sniffing a Super Bowl this year regardless of who the qb was. That defense was soft. As soon as Berry was done, so was this defense. The pass rush was anemic and musical chairs across from Peters plagued the team all year.

Exactly. :thumb:

The jury is still out for me on JG. Just not enough body of work yet and some of these teams if not all of them that JG defeated bought into the 49ers suck hype thus looking past them. But give JG credit because if he is "the real deal" he should have been able to do what he did against these teams that were looking way past them and JG himself of which he took advantage of this. Next year will tell a lot IMHO.

This is completely false.

The Jags didn’t wrap up the division in Week 14.

You’re dumb as fuck, too, but that’s not no secret.

[Chiefshrink]

Jags got swept by the Tits, Tits were a bad team down the stretch( pathetic for the Chiefs), and the rams didn't care about that game ( or the playoff game they shit the bed in apparently) Meh...

Division games are so different from the rest of the schedule it seems.

[Chiefshrink]

This is completely false.

Like I said, the JAGs and Titans were looking way past the Niners/JG and got caught with their pants down. The fact the Niners won these games definitely shows they have potential but if they play the Niners 10x both the Jags and Titans win 8 of 10 if not 9 every time. Why? Because now they are prepped and have more talent by far at this point.

No California based team should have this much money to throw around. How do they even generate revenue let alone a profit. No one goes to their games.

TV contracts and revenue sharing..

Was that a serious question?

[Ragged Robin]

If the Chiefs had dumped Alex Smith in early 2017 and traded for Jimmy G., they'd have been in the Super Bowl this year.

A little heavy handed with the overzealous fanboy mentality here, dude threw 7TDs 5INTs. Calm your tits ffs. The 2017 Chiefs weren't contending jack shit regardless.

[Kiimo]

Jimmy G’s contract is hilariously frontloaded, which makes perfect sense for the 49ers given their cap space and desire to protect themselves. $42.6 million in the first season. He just went from being Tom’s ball washer to living in SF with 42m coming in.

And they still have $77 million in cap space

I don't understand the love fest for him. At first I thought the 49ers just ruined their cap for a top 10-15 QB but they have so much cap space they are able to severely front load his cap hit and he becomes more in line from years 2-5.

[DaneMcCloud]

I don't understand the love fest for him.

Apparently because you didn’t watch him play.

Such substantive rebuttal and why you rule CP as you do!!:rolleyes:

We haven't had a real quarterback since Jeff Garcia. 14 years.

And, yes, it's awesome timing, as we have the most cap space in the league.

You’re a fucking idiot that knows absolutely nothing about the NFL.

You’re a dime store psychologist that’s dumb as fuck and constantly talk out of your ass.

You’re a pathetic joke of a man.

I'm not so sure which one is more ludicrous, your weird obsession with Garoppolo or the fact that you think the 2017 Chiefs were serious Superbowl contenders ROFL

Fucking good for you.

Other than a brief stint of Montana and Trent Green, we haven't had one since the fucking Nixon administration.

I was offering an explanation for the "love fest," not complaints.

[Red Dawg]

Small sample size but he did show a lot of promise. What were they expected to do? Let him hit FA? Use the tag? Both would have been stupid moves.

[GloucesterChief]

If its front loaded then probably not a bad deal. If Jimmy starts to suck then the 9ers can cut bait rather quickly.

Yep. We were 0-9 without him. Ended the season on five game winning streak with him.

[Mile High Mania]

It's fairly amazing that he set the new bar with that contract... totally resets the field for all others. Crazy deal for such a small sample size, but that's the NFL now. 5 wins with 1,560 yards, 7 TDs and 5 INTs. Nice.

Every guy like Foles, Keenum, etc... what are they worth now with JG getting that deal? Cousins will set the new mark and whether that's in Denver or elsewhere, good luck. I'll buckle up for whatever is in their future, my lone request is that they don't spend that #5 pick on one of the rookie QBs. That's all.

[BucEyedPea]

Well good for Jimmy. Patriots loss.

Yeah... the league has caused this by making so many rule changes over the years to make the NFL qb-centric.

They wanted exciting, high scoring, pass happy games to keep more casual fans interested, but it seems to have had the opposite effect, especially on dedicated fans, who now find the league less interesting than ever.

You can't blame the 49ers, really. Garoppolo working out is a much greater chance than them drafting a QB that will work out, and he's already on the roster.

great post, all around. :)

[DRM08]

He looks like a completely different guy than last year. From having excellent footwork to very lazy/sloppy footwork. From a very quick release to staring down receivers.

Meh. Rough moments against a great defense. He will be fine, so long as they can patch up that IOL. His low depth chart WR did him no favors by running a wrong route and allowing that pick 6.

Jimmy G did force a few balls into too much coverage, but he'll get it together, me thinks.
