Former NFL general manager Mike Tannenbaum suggests Purdy should aim for a mid-40s salary, not surpassing the top of the market, to secure a significant guarantee and keep the team's core players together.
Tannenbaum highlights the importance of retaining key players like Brandon Aiyuk while discussing the benefits of Purdy accepting a slightly lower salary than top-tier quarterbacks like Josh Allen.
Compensating Purdy appropriately without demanding the highest salary allows the 49ers to maintain a competitive roster, with his extension possibly featuring a smaller salary cap figure in its first year.
