No 5. Jimmy Garoppolo will end up on a team other than the Indianapolis Colts
This is a really tough one to answer right out of the gate. Jimmy G is probably one of the most highly sought quarterbacks that’s currently under contract with another team. One of the most frequently linked teams to Garoppolo is the Indianapolis Colts.
They just traded away Carson Wentz, they have the cap room to absorb his $24.2 million salary owed in 2022 and he’s got the veteran shine to him the Colts seem to favor over bringing in an unproven rookie that they could hypothetically acquire in the draft.
However, I think there are other teams out there that covet Garoppolo who have better assets to offer San Francisco. Someone like the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Carolina Panthers, the Seattle Seahawks— it really just depends on what the 49ers covet in a trade as to where they send the two-time Super Bowl champ.
Give me the field over Indianapolis as to where Jimmy Garoppolo lands in a seemingly imminent trade.
Verdict: Buy
