#NFL QB AAV as % of Salary Cap at Signing Brock Purdy's AAV of $53 million accounts for just 18.98% of this year's salary cap. This places him 14th among QBs with deals signed since 2020.

A tale of two rosters: From 2017 to 2020, the #49ers, given their mediocre roster, invested 40% of their draft capital into the defensive line (left chart). After building an elite DL, #SF shifted their focus, spending just 7% on the defensive line thereafter (right chart)

How have all #NFL teams invested their draft capital over the past 8 years?

Here’s how recent QB deals would translate under the 2025 salary cap. A few QBs near Brock Purdy’s rumored $50-$55M per year range: - Tua Tagovailoa $58M - Jared Goff: $58M - Josh Allen: $55M - Matthew Stafford: $54M - Kirk Cousins: $49M

#SF Draft Picks since 2017 Since Lynch and Shanahan took over, the #49ers have selected: - 16 DBs - 11 WRs - 10 DLs - 9 OLs 5 of those 10 DLs were drafted in 2017 & 2018.

Who were the biggest spenders through the first week of #NFL free agency? The Vikings led the way, dishing out $142 million in guarantees and $245 million in total. #SF spent the fourth-lowest amount in the league, totaling $42 million so far. Source: OTC per 03/17/2025

#NFL Highest Paid Cornerbacks by APY Derek Stingley Jr. completely resets the CB market at $30 million per year. Meanwhile, Deommodore Lenoir, who signed his five-year extension just four months ago, has already dropped to the 18th-highest paid cornerback in the NFL

After the releases of Floyd and Juszczyk, #SF’s dead cap for the year now stands at a league-high $77 million - and that’s before factoring in Javon Hargrave’s $7.4 million.

Career Snaps for new #49ers TE Luke Farrell Over four seasons with Jacksonville, Farrell never missed a game due to injury. He was inactive for two games during his rookie season (2021), but not injury-related.

#NFL Dead Money Cap At $66 million, #SF currently has the highest dead cap in the NFL, taking up 24% of this year's salary cap. Deebo Samuel’s trade alone accounts for $31 million of that total.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 07/03/2025

The #49ers have consistently set new benchmarks for each position with their contracts, averaging one record-breaking deal/extension per year. Here's a closer look.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 07/03/2025

It’s unfortunate that Talanoa Hufanga struggled to stay healthy with the #49ers. Outside of his All-Pro season in 2022, he never played more than 50% of the snaps in any other year.

With free agency approaching, here’s a look at some of the #49ers' most notable signings since 2017. #SF has taken some big swings in free agency in the past, but most of them did not live up to expectations.

The #49ers were the most injured team in the NFL last season according to FTN’s AGL metric (adjusted games lost).

Here’s how recent QB deals would look if signed under the 2025 salary cap of $279.2 million. A starting offer of $45 million per year for Brock? It's a bold strategy, Cotton...

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

The #49ers had a four-year stretch from 2020 to 2023 where rookies contributed less than 8% of the team’s snap count (2023 3.3%). #SF must nail this year’s draft to build on the strong 2024 class and sustain a high level of rookie contribution while maintaining cap flexibility.

Got any draft crushes for the #49ers at pick #11 from the #NFLCombine ? Here’s a look at the latest odds of each player being available up to No. 11, based on 175 pre-combine mock drafts. Combine performances are set to shake things up in the coming weeks (e.g. Membou).

#NFLCombine performances of all Offensive Linemen drafted by the #49ers Dominick Puni displayed elite short-area quickness with his 3-cone and 20-yard shuttle times at last year’s Combine.

RB #NFLCombine performances from the top draft picks over the past decade CMC’s 3-cone drill was exceptional (99.6% percentile).

#SF Prospects to Watch at the #NFLCombine Here are the latest pre-combine mock draft projections for the #49ers' #11 pick. It will be interesting to see how the Combine influences their draft stock moving forward

With the #NFLCombine defensive line drills kicking off, here’s a look at the measurements and stats of the highest-selected DL prospects from the past decade. Nick Bosa recorded the fastest 20-yard shuttle among these players.

#SF Pick 11: Most Likely Position OT is the clear frontrunner (41.8%) for #SF's 11th pick at the moment, followed by EDGE (17.6%) and CB (15.4%). Data from 91 mock drafts over the past two weeks.

#NFL QB Playoff Performance since 2018 Patrick Mahomes is human after all. Jayden Daniels now leads all QBs in both EPA per play and Total QBR among QBs with a minimum of 100 relevant plays in the postseason. Brock Purdy not far behind.

Brant Boyer #SF Special Teams Coordinator During his tenure as the Jets' Special Teams Coordinator from 2016 to 2024, his unit lost a total of 30.5 expected points. The Jets' special teams had two down years (2016 & 2020), but were at least solid in all other seasons.

#NFL Postseason EPA/Play vs. QBR since 2018 Brock Purdy ranks as the third most efficient QB in the playoffs since 2018, trailing only Mahomes and Stafford.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 19/01/2025

With Detroit and Houston eliminated, the remaining 6 teams have a combined $46 million on their reserve lists. The #49ers never had a chance this season due to their injury situation ($76M).

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 19/01/2025

Which #NFL QBs bounce back after an INT, and which ones see their play decline? Josh Allen, Jayden Daniels & Lamar Jackson tend to bounce back strongly after throwing a pick. Brock Purdy often struggles following an INT, as do Hurts, Stroud, Herbert, Prescott, Goff, and others.

#NFL Defenses by Quarter 2024 The #49ers' defense ended the season ranked 26th overall, starting strong but fading as games went on: - Q1: #6 - Q2: #20 - Q3: #23 - Q4: #29 Closing out games becomes tough with such a steep decline in defensive performance.

How Did #NFL QBs Perform in Their First 3 Seasons Before Becoming Eligible for an Extension? Here’s where Brock Purdy ranks: -2nd in EPA/Play (Mahomes #1) -2nd in Passer Rating (Mahomes #1) -2nd in Bad Throw % (Burrow #1) -4th in CPOE (behind Burrow, Prescott & Watson)

#NFL Snap-Weighted Team Ages The #49ers ended the season as the 5th-oldest team in the NFL, while the Packers stood out as the youngest. For #SF, the upcoming draft will be crucial to building on last year’s impressive class and rejuvenating the roster once again.

#SF Receiving Stats 2024 George Kittle and Jauan Jennings with impressive performances this season, combining for 111 expected points. Deebo Samuel struggled to contribute, generating just 11 expected points on 81 targets.

Since some people may have forgotten how dominant Brock Purdy was last season.. Brock was the most efficient QB in terms of EPA/play in 2023 - and it wasn’t close. He was also the top-ranked QB in the 4th quarter. His 0.34 EPA/play from last year would rank #1 this year as well.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 14/01/2025

#NFL QB Play by Quarter 2024 Josh Allen led the league in EPA/play this season, with his performance improving as games progressed. Brock Purdy finished 9th overall and the 2nd-best QB in the first quarter, but his performance steadily declined with each subsequent quarter.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 14/01/2025

#NFL QB Reads 2024 Joe Burrow led the league in 2024, going into progression mode on 93.6% of his pass plays. Brock Purdy ranked 7th at 91%, reflecting Shanahan's confidence in his ability to read the field.

What went wrong for the #49ers this season? A THREAD (1/11) Rest Differential For the second straight year, the #49ers faced the largest rest disadvantage with -21 days (the worst mark in the NFL since 2017). #SF played 4 teams coming off their bye and lost 3 of those games.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 13/01/2025

Where Does George Kittle's 2024 Season Rank Historically? Over the past 15 years, George Kittle’s impressive 0.723 EPA/Target in 2024 ranks 5th overall. On top, Brandon Aiyuk’s performance last year at #3 highlights just how pivotal his presence is to the #SF's passing game.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 11/01/2025

#NFL EPA/Target Leaders 2024 George Kittle was the most efficient pass-catcher this season, averaging 0.72 expected points per target, yet he missed out on a first-team All-Pro nod. TE Brock Bowers ranked 37th with 0.18 EPA/target, making Kittle four times more efficient.

SFdata9ers @sfdata9ers.bsky.social · 10/01/2025

#NFL Red Zone Efficiency 2024 The #49ers finished the season ranked 15th in points scored per red zone trip but an alarming 31st on defense. While the offense steadily improved in red zone efficiency as the season progressed, the defense's performance worsened week by week.
