00:00an uneasy offseason ahead for the San Francisco 49ers who entered this past season as the favorites
00:08to win Super Bowl 59, who played in two years ago now Super Bowl and Super Bowl 58. Donnie,
00:16one of the reasons it's uneasy, a lot of moving parts perhaps within this organization. We already
00:22got the news over the weekend that Debo Samuel has been given permission by the 49ers brass
00:28to seek a trade. And part of that is looking at their books and being like, okay, okay, oh,
00:33what is that number? We got to pay Brock Purdy now? We don't get the salary discount of being
00:39Mr. Irrelevant in the draft in a seventh round pick? Brock Purdy's extension up on the tab
00:46this offseason and Niners owner and CEO Jed York saying this week that San Francisco will do quote
00:54everything to keep Brock Purdy in-house. Yeah, I know it's smokescreen season, but if you are an
01:00owner and you're trying to negotiate with your quarterback and you're telling the press you're
01:04going to do everything it takes to keep him here, does that mean blank check Brock Purdy?
01:09Make me general manager of the 49ers. I will play this, Ben, right down the line perfectly here
01:14because I can look at what the Giants did with Daniel Jones. It's okay, Ben, to say, Brock,
01:18we love you. We're going to pay you a lot of money. You know you're going to get it here.
01:22We just want to see if that market actually deserves the type of payment that we're going
01:26to give you. Go out and shop around. We'll match anything that you come up with here,
01:30whether it's $25 million or $65 million because if the market's there, we want you back, but we
01:36want it to be right. I can't see this being like you're not going to get the free agency. We're
01:40going to break the bank because so many times that we look over it, whether it's on Pro Football
01:44Today, Ben, or right here on the early line, who is actually paying Brock Purdy $60 million
01:50on the open market or is the market just with you because he's your starting quarterback
01:55like we saw with Daniel Jones? That's what I'm most interested in here.
