Trade Deadline Moves, News, and Speculation

[Leeroy Jenkins PhD]

Figured we should have a post for any trades made today before the deadline.  I will attempt to keep this updated throughout the day.

Vernon Davis - Traded from SanFran to Denver.  (Swap 2016 6th and 7th, and a 2017 6th)

The Titans have fired Ken Whisenhunt.

49ers signing Pierre Thomas according to a source

Lions WR Calvin Johnson reportedly not at practice this morning.

A fun one to watch: #Patriots have interest in #Titans CB Jason McCourty to pair him with his twin, Devin. Alas, deal not expected right now

Teams have been talking to 49ers about their OL. Sense they get is Staley more available than some others

Cowboys have released Joseph Randle.

Chargers' WR Keenan Allen underwent a kidney procedure – not a surgery – and could be out for season, per league sources. 2015 uncertain.

Not that there was much of a chance, but #49ers aren’t trading Colin Kaepernick. They haven’t ruled him out starting later in the season.

Names I've heard the most on during deadline day: Staley (among other 49ers) , J. Cook, Kruger, Mingo, Streater, M. Cooper, Willie Young,

[Mr. Scot]

Jordin Sparks did fine.

As to the topic, I'm not betting on any of those moves being ours.

7-0

 

 

Why make any trades?

7-0 is fantastic. Watching this team lose in the playoffs because of a Ginn/Brown drop is going to be heartbreaking if it happens. That if is very small.

We should trade Jordin Sparks, a terrible anthem singer, for Taylor Swift. Could breathe new life to this team.

Sparks did her thing in my opinion

7 - 0 won't matter if we go home in the playoffs prematurely.

Why the hate for Sparks?  She did awesome.

I still get a kick out of this picture.

Yeah Jordan Sparks fine as frog hair though

I don't want to disrupt chemistry, but Ginn has dropped several passes with nothing but the endzone in front of him. It doesn't hurt as bad against JAX and IND, because we won.  However, in January, those drops cannot happen, and I don't think it's fixable on the fly. It sucks bc Ginn has had his best years here in Carolina and continuously gets separation from good corners. It's not the rest of the personnel that concerns me (though lack of pass rush does), but if we have the chance to add a Garcon/Jeffrey/Floyd without hurting our cap long-term (Norman, Short) then I think we should pull the trigger. 

Cam is having a phenomenal year and has improved his touch and deep ball, as well as his patience and progressions. SB windows are usually small, and at 7-0, if we need a more sure-handed WR to help this offense, I'm okay with it.  Conversley, if it doesn't happen, I'm not losing sleep over it..... I just think that the unit of Ginn/Brown/Cotchery isn't the kind of group that marches through the playoffs to Levi's Stadium.
