Patriots Player Departure Jimmy Garoppolo traded to SF for 2018 2nd round draft pick

This was my thought when the trade was confirmed.

Geez, if he waited another day, maybe he could have had a 3RD pick in 2023........

Here comes Kaepernick!!!!!!!!!

People flipping out about getting, at worst, #34 for a backup QB instead of getting nothing for him at the end of the season when he walks.

Still, I'll miss the handsome bastard.
Him being in SF might make them better than the 3rd worst team in the NFL.
 
Clearly all those rumors of Cleveland offering a high 1st was baloney

That's not clear at all.

Comments like yours remind me of the people who said the same sort of nonsense about the Cassel trade when, in fact, there was a potential deal for a 1st round pick being worked out, but the Patriots decided they couldn't (or didn't want to) wait for it to get put together.
 
This isn’t surprising value. The 49ers aren’t getting Garoppolo in time to fix their 2017 season, so it’s basically a second round pick for a half-season tryout and exclusive negotiating rights.

I’m more interested in the thought process behind being willing to trade him away now. Will be interesting to see who they bring in as the backup.
 
A 2nd rounder? I mean...eh. I didn't expect us to keep him next year but that's a pretty weak return considering what we could have had him for. No Brady insurance for the remainder of the year.

But it does indeed look like Brady is sticking around for another few years.
 
Only thing I can say is that's supper annoying that you can't even get more for him than you spent on him.

Jimmy G was pick 62 I believe. Good shot this will be pick 34 (same pick the Pats got for Cassel).

Very surprising at this point though and less than what I would have thought.
 
But...but...the Browns offered up multiple firsts and seconds in the spring, right?

After all, rookie QBs are taken with first rounders. And then there was that one time with the RG3 trade.
 
Are we loading up for a big trade or something ?? Only a 2nd
