Greg Hardy not getting a warm reception ....

SANTA CLARA -- General manager Trent Baalke didn't mince words when it came to the 49ers' interest in Panthers free-agent pass rusher Greg Hardy. The team doesn't have any, he said firmly.

"There's been no contact with Greg Hardy or any representative of his," Baalke said during a half-hour sit down with reporters on Wednesday. “There is no interest that we’ve shown, nor will we show, in bringing Greg Hardy into this program."

Bleacher Report reported this week that the 49ers would have the most interest in Hardy, who had been involved in a high-profile domestic abuse case in North Carolina and who, while remaining on the commissioner’s so-called “exempt list,” is a free agent. Prosecutors dismissed charges against Hardy last month after they said the accuser in the case couldn't be located.

 

 

 

 

 

Bleacher Report says San Fran has the most interest in Hardy. San Fran says "not a chance". 

 

Welp, gotta love baseless speculation by BR. It gets the clicks, and fools many people into believing they are legit.

A few weeks ago Dungy speculated on ESPN that at least half of the NFL would not touch him and that only 2-4 teams will show any serious interest. Made sense then and may be coming true.

 

EDIT: It actually may have been Herm who said it.

Does anyone not suspect that half of these rumors have come from Rosenhaus, trying to manufacture some need for his client?

 

 

Of course they are. Thats what he does, as he should.

 

The problem is legitimate news sources know this and won't run with a story based on only an agent's word. 

 

This is why I don't like people posting BR "articles" here and try to pass them off as legitimate. You might as well take the average Huddle topic and promote it the same way.

I don't know how good of a strategy "no one wants my guy" is for negotiating a higher contract, but I suppose it's possible.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      First of all the out was not caught because XL slipped and was the only person who could have caught that ball.  I'm not sure where you get that it was almost intercepted but go ahead and believe your story. The kick was in the direction we wanted the ball from the opening kickoff.  Do you think Fitzpatrick didn't try several kicks in that direction before the game and after half?  Do you think we just winged it.  Come on, OK so he missed one earlier.  Kickers can't adjust.  You make it sound like it was a wing and a pray. I saw the game.  Yes and we still got 21 yard from the running game.  We also got two first downs via that pass.  So it isn't like it was 100% we were going to run.   You have your blinders on and hate BY so much that you can't give him any credit because it defeats your narrative that he completely sucks.   What I have yet to here is you 100% for sure solution.  Which QB are you going to bring in that GUARANTEES that he'll be better than BY.  See the difference between you and me is I understand that he isn't the greatest QB to play the game.   But he has strengths and he continues to win whether you like it or not.  You and I have been on this forum for many years and agreed and disagreed on many topics.  I don't think I have ever seen you so filled with so much hatred for a player than BY.   I'm just going to leave it here to agree to disagree because you aren't going to change my outlook and I definitely am not going to change yours.  I do appreciate no personal attacks.  Someone said it earlier.  Ride with our game manager until a Mahomes falls into our laps.

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      The key difference being expectation. Jake was basically an afterthought of a free agent signing. Bryce is a guy we mortgaged the franchise on to be THE GUY. Not to mention a different era of football before all the rule changes to benefit the passing game. I don't care how we win either. I just realize that the odds of continuing to win in today's NFL with this level of QB play are very low. If I knew for sure that the Panthers had already decided to pursue other options at QB this off-season I could breathe a sigh of relief but of course they're not going to say that publicly.
