Should the 49ers trade Brock Purdy?

The 49ers have embarked on a reset of sorts, with nearly half the starters from Super Bowl LVIII gone — and with a plan to break the bank for quarterback Brock Purdy. The situation invites fair speculation and analysis as to whether Purdy will perform as potently with lesser help around him.

The team seems undeterred, with an apparent plan to pay Purdy more than $50 million per year in new money.

Someone would have to want him, obviously.
