8. Brock Purdy's rise was Trey's demise

We got screwed by drafting him so high, but getting Purdy as the last pick of last year's draft made up for it.
All in all, I think trading him now was the best outcome for both parties.

If Dallas develops him into the player the Niners thought he'd be, there could be some great playoff rivalries between him and Brock a few years down the line.

Wish him well. Should not have been drafted that high. Auggie Aug 2023 #4

Niners are probably looking to clear more money for the un-extended NICK BOSA, too! TeamProg Aug 2023 #11

That seems to be the consensus on the Niner message boards. calguy Aug 2023 #12
