NFL Free Agency Update Thread

49ers would've been better off paying Gore and Iupati that money.  Maybe we can get Smith on the cheap in a year or two after Colin "One Read and Bolt" Kaepernick destroys his market value just like he did Stevie Johnson's.

 

They probably would have been better off, but like Cam he's needed speed at WR (even though he has a lot of other issues).   They decided to give their QB talent, we decided on Ed Dickson.

I can't remember the last time we signed a big name player. 

 

I remember the last time we were in the playoffs.

 

(back to back years, in fact)

That'd be more than half our available cap room tied up in a single player.

 

But would solve 1 of the 2 largest issues this team has, which is lack of speed on the outside.  The other is LT which may not be fixed in FA anyway.

Yeah guys the cap doesn't matter, the Saints just traded Graham for shits and giggles.

Ndamukong Suh will receive 60 million guaranteed over the contract. ALL OF IT WILL BE PAID THIS YEAR

 

That is crazy ..

Why can't we be like that, right?

lol that losing record we fluked into the playoffs with sure was a sign of our philosophy, I'll concede that

They tried to do the same thing with Stevie Johnson.  Kaepernick's downfield accuracy sucks balls.  When you're constantly scrambling for WR talent, it's probably time to look at the guy throwing the ball.

 

We're going WR in one of the first three rounds.

But but but...If we don't spend 90% of our available cap on one guy today, how will we ever be able to compete six months from now?!!!

Torrey smith to 49ers, 5 year, 40mil

Johnson isn't Smith speed I dont believe, but I'm not argueing Kaep is overrated lol.  

 

We needed to sign someone AND draft someone, so I agree with the draft.  It's still a crap shoot on drafting WRs despite ONE amazing year last year, so someone proven would help big time in case the draft pick doesn't pan out.

Adam Caplan on NFL Insiders just said the Eagles and Cowboys free agent RB DeMarco Murray have mutual interest.
