It's pretty much guaranteed that SF will franchise Jimmy if they can't get a deal done before then. Assuming he doesn't flop.

Yea that was my thinking. Why bother trading for a QB who is expected to hit FA after this year with 8 games to go this year and being winless? You don't make that trade without the intent to extend him. The 49ers essentially traded a 2nd round pick to see how he does for half a season and also be the first team to get to sign him to new deal (if they want).
