49ers Waive OT Jonathan Martin

[panthers34]

No thank you. Anyone else remember the preseason game where Charles Johnson dominated Martin? It was kind of pathetic how bad he was

In Martin's rookie year? That means nothing.

Remember that Saints rookie OT Terron Armstead that Hardy made his bitch in 2013? He was one of the better tackles in the NFL last year.

I wouldn't mind he played good coming out of Stanford. I don't think he found an NFL team that he can call home yet or fits his play style. He reaches a lot of time and that's the reason his technique is poor. He might be worth a look on our roster and could end up being solid depth or potentially a starter.

[Cookie Lyon]

I wouldn't want him on the team.

 

He doesn't seem to be emotionally stable after the whole bullying incident.

I say bring him in.  Oher, Remmers, Martin, and a draft pick would be much better than last year.  

[gettlemanjack]

last year:

Oher (age 28) - 11 starts (all at RT) - PFF rated 9th-worst OT

Martin (age 25) - 9 starts (all at RT) - PFF rated 60th of 84 OTs

Oher rated "the ninth worst grade of all tackles."

https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2015/03/10/2015-free-agency-deal-grader/

Martin "started nine games last season at right tackle for San

Francisco ... PFF graded Martin as a below - average run blocker and pass blocker, placing him 60th out of 84 qualified offensive tackles.

Still, at age 25, and with 32 career starts under his belt, Martin

could be a decent swing tackle for a team in need of depth at the

position"

No. He's a bad football player and a wuss. Byron Bell is better than him

[RickyManningJr]

Leave Remmers at RT.

[tondi]

At least Byron Bell doesn't cry like a bitch when somebody is mean to him.  Why would we want a guy protecting Cam who is a big pussy?

[Kuech the Sneak]

I don't know, maybe, why not

[Kuech the Sneak]

For depth sure

You needed to be hugged more as a kid.

It's ok.

I thought he had a decent year or improved his game last year. Also the 49ers play in a division loaded with great defense so that could be a major reason why his rating was so low.

If nothing else he would be great competition and offer solid depth at tackle which we don't have. He has experience and is probably more ready to start then someone we draft like Peat. He shouldn't cost much and since he was cut he wouldn't cost us a comp pick.
