You could either have Derek Carr or:

Deebo ($9 million)

CMC ($3.5 million)
Make no mistake - Brock Purdy IS the reason the 49ers are in the Super Bowl. If Grapes is still there with his $27 million cap hit, they don't have this roster. Or if Lance is there crapping all over the field on every drop back, they're not here even if he was cheap.
But they're here because of what his mediocre play for literally the league minimum has allowed them to afford around him. That has IMMENSE value. It makes him a better asset.
It doesn't make him a better player.

Yeah, just having competency with some playmaking ability at QB for less than a million dollars is a real cheat code.
People worried about them paying him or not are missing the point imo. They won't. They'll move on and go to the next guy.
