Brandon Aiyuk’s WR coach believes the 49ers overpaid for Brock Purdy

The San Francisco 49ers got their main piece of offseason business done last week, signing Brock Purdy to a five-year, $265 million extension that includes $181 million in guaranteed money.

Purdy, a seventh-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, was coming off his second full season as the team’s starter, throwing for 3,864 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions in 2024.

That came after a strong 2023 campaign where Purdy tossed for 4,280 yards, 31 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions, leading the league in a few efficiency categories.

San Francisco sought to get the deal done early in the offseason, finalizing terms before organized team activities (OTAs), which begin this week.
