Ok, so the other day I did 4 different 53-man roster projections, 1 with 3 QBs, 1 with 2 QB, along with with each having 1 with Tartt on PUP, and Tartt on the 53, so today I’m going to revist this, as we have some new developments.
Most notably Jalen Hurd has some sort of injury, with Kyle Shanahan saying it’s hurting his chances, and Tony Jefferson II is also injured at the moment.
Alright, with that said, let’s begin with the roster with 3 QBs & Tartt on PUP.

**Denotes International Pathway Player who automatically goes on the Practice Squad if the team chooses, but he’s ineligible to play during the season.
With this roster, the 49ers would have $3,861,826 in salary cap room to begin the 2021 season.
Now, as I mentioned in my last article, the 49ers need to create cap room, with Arik Armstead being the logical choice, as it would save the team $4.528 million, and only add $1.132 million to his 2022-2024 cap numbers.
Also the 49ers will need to have $1,432,352 to payback 15 players’ per game roster bonuses that don’t count against the cap.
Now, we have those players below.
QB Jimmy Garoppolo – $517,647
RB Raheem Mostert – $132,353
FB Kyle Juszyzck – $23,529
TE George Kittle – $52,941
TE Ross Dwelley – $11,765
C Alex Mack – $70,588
LG Laken Tomlinson – $23,529
LT Trent Williams – $132,353
DE Arik Armstead – $44,118
DE Samson Ebukam – $29,412
NT D.J. Jones – $44,118
NT Zach Kerr – $20,588
SLB Marcell Harris – $5,882
CB Jason Verrett – $235,294
FS Jimmie Ward – $88,235
Ok, so, the overall cap room, both with & without the restructure of Arik Armstead is below.
3 QBs + Tartt on PUP: $3,036,826, $7,564,826 with Armstead restructure
3 QBs + Tartt on Active Roster: $3,816,826, $8,344,826 with Armstead restructure
2 QBs + Tartt on PUP: $3,279,226, $7,807,226 with Armstead restructure
2 QBs + Tartt on Active Roster: $3,861,826, $8,389,826 with Armstead restructure
So with all of this said, I thank everyone for reading article, as always you can follow me on Twitter @49erscap, or leave a comment below, and I’ll get back to you.
