This is the most confusing move I think I have ever seen the Panthers make.

Weird.

Need to revise the title to "Future All-Pro Kicker" since every kicker we trade or cut goes on to be awesome.

Does Zane have to be on SF’s roster week 1 for this trade compensation to stick?

49ers are dumbasses, 49ers could have him for free!

Not if he wanted to sign somewhere else

Fitt has gotten something for Zane, "Chosen", and Little. How good is that?

You don’t get it. The 49ers can cut him for nothing and our conditional pick likely goes poof. They added him to compete for a spot and likely lose nothing if he doesn’t make it. If he was released then they have to sign him and add some guaranteed/bonus money competing with other teams. Gonzalez was solid in 2021 and was a higher than normal draft pick, so he’d have a market, albeit a kicker’s market.

Yep. He’s got a contract with no guarantee left. That’s valuable especially when you can cut him for nothing and probably get your conditional pick back.

I sure the hell hope they thought this out right.  The Niners should be contending this year.  If we swap picks it sounds like we will be dropping down in the draft instead of moving up.

Also the Huddle is going to cry when he makes a kick and our kicker misses any. 

Thanks, Captain obvious.
