D.J. Uigaleilei is now the new projected starter in San Fransisco after Yeameat18 (49ers Coach/User) traded their starter Brock Purdy, and Wide Reciever Ricky Pearsall to the Steelers for a 1st, and 3rd round pick for this upcoming draft. This trade raises questions amongst fans, and peers as the 49ers are a solid team who will probably make the Playoffs, and had Super Bowl potential prior to this trade. Experts seem to state that the 49ers have thrown away Super Bowl hopes this season to have a better future, as the Prospects in this Draft-Class are stacked, and rumours state that there are an abundance of Franchise Caliber QBs in this Draft-Class as well! 

Despite the stacked Draft-Class people are concerned about why the 49ers did this 'bizarre' trade in the first place! Yeameat18 likes the intangibles of D.J. Ugaleilei, but should have probably tested D.J. against a low caliber/tier team before jumping the gun, and putting faith in him Day 1 post-trade. D.J. Uigaleilei does have 97 throw power, which is intriguing and a good intangible. However, D.J. Uigaleilei is currently only a 57 Overall with Normal Development. The 49ers signed a security blanket QB in Drew Lock incase D.J. Uigaleilei starts to suck, but even Lock might be too much of a downgrade from Purdy as well to pose as a huge threat in the Season-58 Post-Season! 

Only time will tell if Yeameat18's risky/crazy move will pay off. It most likely will for the future, but will the present season at hand be sacrificed?
