Since Garoppolo is the main topic of discussion, I'll touch on an angle nobody has mentioned yet. There were reports that the 49ers were offered 2 second round picks for Garoppolo, presumably one this year, and one next year. That's a story I don't believe for one second, but if 49ers actually turned down that offer, then it's poetic justice that they can't trade him now.
Got a tip for us?

100% agreed.
And the owner told one of the coaches, maybe more, to start tanking games to better draft picks... so...
Yeah, but….Garoppolo doesn’t seem like he wants to be in San Fran anymore and the 49ers seemingly don’t want him either, so; they’re both doing each other a disservice if he stays. I don’t see the advantage here. He’s young, talented and has had some injuries, but he’ll recover. He should be traded as soon as possible to find a suitable team, given he has loads of potential.
And neither of them, SF or Jimmy G, are as good as they think they are... lol.
What’s wrong with Garoppolo? I think he’s plenty good and has a bright future in the NFL. If he wasn’t, he wouldn’t be making this much of a media frenzy if he was a ‘nobody’.
There was a fire at Empower Field in Denver today.

Tom Brady possibly venturing to the Dolphins? Seems totally TMZ-ish type of report, but it’s been the circular talk in terms of a multi-trade-deal with other players following.
@maflynn
You’re Very insightful. Do you have any feedback on that, being you’re a Tom Brady fan (Or were).
Edit:
Garoppolo possibly to Seattle as well. But now it sounds like, he may not be going anywhere. What a strange situation that’s turning out to be.

Some of the sports writer commentary is suggesting Garoppolo hasn't been traded because the 49ers were asking too much in return for him....and then suddenly most of the possible trades went elsewhere.
Speculation now is he may be with the 49ers until close to the start of the season on the possibility that some team's QB will get injured creating something of an urgent need for ....Garoppolo.
Or maybe the Panthers will reconsider their needs right after the draft, or maybe the Houston Texans ....SF commentators continue to doubt that the 49ers are willing to trade Garoppolo to Seattle.
Or maybe they're just going to cut their loses and release him if a trade doesn't appear......but who knows.

Ah! That makes sense now! Brady wants to be the first and only QB/Head Coach to win a Super Bowl. Look for another announcement soon... 
The timing was classy. He made sure his defensive coordinator, who's African American, would get the HC job with Brady at QB for at least one year.
One more complication about the possibility of Garoppolo to Seattle; I recently read some commentary pointing out that Garoppolo's record playing against Seattle was not good, something like 1-5, which may have left Seattle unimpressed

Man, I have a feeling we are going to see a lot more of these in the coming years. I just did a quick search via google and a lot of the players I grew up watching in the 70's and 80's are now in their 70's, 80's, and 90's. Ugh.
