San Francisco 49ers Admit Quarterback Help Might Be Needed This Offseason
San Francisco 49ers basic supervisor John Lynch spoke to media this week from the positioning of the NFL Scouting Mix in Indianapolis.
There was some discuss San Francisco’s draft plans. However and not using a decide in every of the primary two rounds and main questions at quarterback, that’s the place consideration shortly turned.
A seventh-round decide within the 2022 NFL Draft, Brock Purdy performed effectively as a rookie a season in the past. Actually, he led San Francisco to the NFC Championship Recreation after changing an injured Jimmy Garoppolo in December. Garoppolo himself changed one more injured 49ers quarterback in that of Trey Lance in Week 2.
If this weren’t sufficient, San Francisco misplaced Purdy to an elbow harm in January’s convention title recreation recreation loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He’s but to bear surgical procedure and won’t be prepared for the beginning of the 2023 season. See a theme right here? San Francisco’s quarterback state of affairs stays largely unsettled with NFL free company slated to open on March 15.

It’s on this that Lynch admitted that San Francisco may search for exterior choices out on the open market.
“We love the 2 guys we’ve got,” Lynch stated this week from Indianapolis. “May we glance elsewhere? Positive, as a result of I feel that’s simply good enterprise.”
There are actually monetary hurdles for San Francisco to beat if it’ll add a viable quarterback to compete with the 2 largely inexperienced inside choices. Per Over the Cap, the 49ers have lower than $6 million in cap house. Positive, Lynch and Co. are going so as to add extra room by way of restructures and the like. However that’s not a terrific place to be in.
What we do know is that longtime starter Jimmy Garoppolo is pretty much as good as gone. “We admire the teammate that he was. I do assume it’s in all probability run its course,” Lynch stated of Garoppolo on Tuesday.
With the 49ers overtly questioning Lance’s capability to remain wholesome and Purdy’s personal harm points proper now, it stands to cause that San Francisco will do what it could so as to add a veteran sign caller to the combo.
How The San Francisco 49ers May Handle Their Quarterback State of affairs
First off, let’s simply fully throw out the likelihood that four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers goes to land in Northern California. Exterior of San Francisco’s cap state of affairs, it doesn’t have the draft decide property to supply up the Inexperienced Bay Packers in a commerce for the longer term Corridor of Famer. The identical factor might be stated about Baltimore Ravens star Lamar Jackson.
As an alternative, the 49ers will probably be on the lookout for a quarterback with a ton of beginning expertise who can are available and act as a veteran presence for Purdy and Lance. The excellent news? There’s a ton of quarterbacks who match that description set to hit NFL Free company.
Former No. 2 picks Marcus Mariota (Atlanta Falcons) and Carson Wentz (Washington Commanders) have been simply launched by their respective groups. Regardless of their latest struggles, each have ample beginning expertise and have loved some success all through their careers.
Former NFL MVP Matt Ryan is on his final legs after some main struggles in his first season with the Indianapolis Colts. He’s additionally probably going to hit free company with Indianapolis set to launch the borderline future Corridor of Famer. Ryan earned that MVP working with 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan when the latter was the Atlanta Falcons’ offensive coordinator again in 2016.
Different potential choices embrace Baker Mayfield, Jacoby Brissett, Gardner Minshew, Teddy Bridgewater, Andy Dalton and Taylor Heinicke.
These aren’t precisely the kind of names 49ers followers like to listen to be linked to their staff. With that stated, San Francisco’s brass has made it clear that its snug with Lance and Purdy vying for the beginning job heading into 2023. Wanting the 49ers getting unhealthy information on Purdy’s pending surgical procedure, I don’t count on Lynch and Co. to alter up their mentality and exhaust extra capital on the quarterback place.
Merely put, San Francisco’s roster simply isn’t constructed to go in that path proper now.

San Francisco West Portal hardware store closing after nearly 9 decades
A hardware store in San Francisco’s West Portal is closing up shop after being in business for 88 years.
Papenhausen Hardware made the announcement, saying it no longer could afford to stay open.
Karl Aguilar walked into this hardware store 29 years ago as a San Francisco State University student looking for a job. But in 2018, Aguilar became a co-owner and thought he would retire there.
Aguilar said it wasn’t just one thing prompting the closure, but two fires and the pandemic took a big hit on his business. He estimates sales dropped about 30% in the first year of the pandemic.
“By the second year, we realized it was time to sell and all of the emotional side of it,” said Aguilar. “What can we do, all the questioning, the sleepless nights happened then.”
On Saturday, Papenhausen Hardware started its going out of business sale. Many of the shelves are now empty as customers come by to make their final trip to their local hardware store.
“We thought there would be an increase in business but it’s just been this crushing avalanche of nonstop business for four days now,” said Matt Rogers the co-owner Papenhausen Hardware. “So, it’s impressive. Touching too really.”
“It’s been overwhelming in a good way?” Aguilar added. “The community is deeply upset. They wish it wasn’t the case and people have come out of the woodwork trying to come up with ideas and find ways to keep us here but the financial reality is that we just can’t stay.”
After 88 years in the West Portal neighborhood, generations of families have relied on this store for basic hardware supplies.
Customers like Lee Bradley said the closing is a huge loss to the community.
“Terrible news really,” Bradley said. “Devastation. The convenience is the whole thing. It’s nice having a store, just down the block that you could little bits and bobs. Whatever you wanted.”
But as customers shopping habits have changed after the pandemic, Papenhausen isn’t the only one struggling to keep its doors open.
Aguilar hopes people realize how important community support is to keep small businesses open.
“The one thing people should take from this is whether it be a bookstore, or a coffee shop or maybe a fabric store that you love,” he said. “I guarantee you that they’re struggling. If you want to see them there, you can support them and every dollar makes a difference.”
Papenhausen Hardware is scheduled to close on December 31st but if they run out of inventory, the store could be closed earlier.
