Imagine if the first move by Sullivan is to sign Malik Willis?

I mean he’s the GM so if he thinks he’s the guy we have to give him that trust ya know, he knows Malik up close and personal for years now.

I’d be cool with it because that’s his job, to evaluate talent and we need a qb if the future, sure I’m aware Ewers is here but he needs comp for sure.

26 years old, perhaps we all should take a hard look at that dude, maybe we get lucky that our new GM has the qb in his back pocket.

I thought it would be fun to evaluate Malik and post your analysis here just as if he was in the draft?
 
I alluded to this in another thread and was told he will cost too much. I think it depends on the coaching hire.

The other way I view this is possibly like a band aid. The main objective of 2026 is a 3 step plan that should go like this.

1. Build your new culture
2. Shed bad contracts / players who don’t align with the new vision
3. Identify and draft your franchise QB

I doubt this will happen, particularly if the goal is a top candidate for HC. would Harbaugh be OK with 'dude, I just signed a QB. Didn't need your input on roster moves. You know, like the way I'm going to run this.'
I expect the GM to do his due diligence and quickly discuss options with the HC, but I doubt we'll see many (any?) significant moves

Easy said than done. Finding a nfl franchise qb ain't easy. Specially when u picking at 11.
 
Well, it wouldn't be the first move since this can happen until March. However, if he wants to bring him in fine, but not on a big contract. He failed in TN, and he's a back up in GB.
Have you broke his reps down ? Do you think that’s all he is a backup?

That’s a good point however, it is his job to fill out a roster how he sees fit.

Getting comp for Ewers is going to happen

As far as any head coach superceding the GM process, I’m not for that

Coach the players the GM gets you and both do your jobs

Of course we will have a coach by the time free agency rolls around so the coach will have input, I just don’t want that type of working dynamic

Coaches coach the players the GM wants. If they come to an agreement on a player that’s fine
