Jimmy Garoppolo Next Team Odds: Pittsburgh is Favored to Land the Veteran Quarterback

It appears as though Jimmy Garoppolo has played his final game for the 49ers. Oddsmakers believe the controversial quarterback could end up with any number of teams. For now though, the Steelers stand out as the favorites.

Pittsburgh is given +300 odds, or an implied 25% chance to replace Roethlisberger with Garoppolo. They’re hardly the only team with good odds though. In total 6 teams are given better than a 12% chance to land Jimmy G. Washington is given +400 odds, the Buccaneers are given +550 odds, the Broncos sit at +600, the Dolphins at +700, and the Panthers at +700.

There are some interesting long shots as well. The Packers are given +1000 odds, or a 9.1% chance to start Jimmy G on Week 1. The Raiders are given +1200 odds to trade in Carr for Garoppolo.

Jimmy Garoppolo is such a hard quarterback to nail down. His numbers tell you he isn’t anything more than a game manager. He’s never topped 4,000 yards, he’s only topped 20 TDs in two seasons, he averages 14 INTs per 17 games, and perhaps most importantly he’s only played a full season once. Yet, his teams win games.

He’s 33-14 in his career as a starter. Since joining the 49ers, the team is 31-14 when he starts and they’re 8-19 without him. So, even with his limitations as a passer it’s clear he’s doing something right, and some team is going to value that on the trade market this offseason.
