Can't disagree with anything you said. I've liked Jimmy as a prospect, but he did get injured quickly and there's limited tape on him. I think he'll do alright in SF, but it wouldn't surprise me a bit if you're right. I'd say it was worth a roll of the dice for SF though. A 2nd rounder in exchange for 8 games to evaluate a possible franchise QB? If I'm a 9ers fan, sign me up.
Plus the Pats get a pick in the 30's and (probably) their old backup in Brian Hoyer. A top shelf backup who is still young enough to eventually help them transition from Brady to a young QB. This was the definition of win-win IMO.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
