Purdy is significantly better than Jones by just about any measure.Daniel Jones comparison comes to mind - showed enough to get a contract and if thats the case its gonna be a big one. Hope it turns out betterYeah, it’s a fair question how much non-top tier QBs are worth. I mean, the difference between Purdy and a replacement level QB is vast and worth 3-4 wins IMO. But he’s not a top 2-3 QB that can carry you deep in the playoffs by himself either. I don’t subscribe to the title or bust philosophy so I think he’s worth paying something approaching the market rate.Maybe he’s slightly more than “just a guy” but he’s not anybody who can win you something when things go south (see this year) and 50+ is still a big number for a guy like that.I definitely dont think hes a fraud. I think hes looked pretty good this year with a TON of extenuating circumstances and his #s arent bad. Theyve had no consistency at RB all year. They lost their #1 WR after he started off slow due to holding out. His other weapon looks washed up. He hurt his shoulder, then they played in snow, then they played in rain. Its been a bizarre season with absolutely no consistency week to week. Im hoping they take care of him. He is the least of their problems.Does Purdy still get mega paid?
Hell no. Dude has been shown as a fraud
Quite a few QBs in the league should be sending Mahomes/Allen/Jackson gift baskets for setting the QB contract market so high. Teams are so worried about losing decent QB play that they’re willing to pay elite QB money to Lee decent QBs.
