Trade Deadline Moves, News, and Speculation


Leeroy Jenkins PhD

Recommended Posts

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,

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.

    • Aho…come out and prove me wrong boy. 
    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
