The reason the 49ers do not want to turn loose Jimmy Garoppolo at this point has everything to do with keeping him away from the Seahawks.
The 49ers can be stubborn and keep Garoppolo on their roster until Tuesday, Aug. 30, when NFL clubs must trim to the regular-season limit of 53 players.
Garoppolo’s spot among NFL quarterbacks might be in debate among the 49ers’ fan base, but he is generally considered a middle-tier starter and an obvious upgrade over current Seahawks quarterbacks Geno Smith, Drew Lock and Jacob Eason. At the very least, the 49ers do not want to cut Garoppolo loose now, paving the way for him to sign with a division rival and getting a full training camp to become acclimated to the Seahawks’ offensive system.
If the Seahawks want Garoppolo, they’re going to have to pay some price to the 49ers to acquire him now — rather than wait a month and reduce the chances that he can be playing at a high level early in the season.on Thursday, it seems even more logical the Seahawks would want the best-possible answer at the quarterback position as quickly as possible.
