If the Niners were going to keep Whitner he would have been locked up during the season.

Jets interested in 49ers' Donte Whitner, per report http://sbn.to/1fYdalh
This, its being reported widely that the Jets have strong interest in Whitner. 49ers will offer him what they think he's worth, if thats not enough, then peace out.

Hello, I'm reality, have we met?
If Whitner is too expensive for the 49ers to sign, then Ward and Byrd also aren't happening. If Whitner walks and the 49ers decide to look around the free agent market, I think guys like Hussein Abdullah of the Chiefs, Kendrick Lewis of the Chiefs, Nate Allen of the Eagles would be more likely FA targets.

I think C.J. Spillman is ready to take over.

I won't be disappointed if he stays or goes, just as long as we (maybe move up) draft a guy that is capable of playing right away like Reid. We need a guy that can cover more than a big hitter.

I hope we can keep him, but I think he follows the money. This is probably his last opportunity for a big payday. I wish the best if he leaves. He played his ass off for this team.
Calvin Pryor would be a nice consolation prize.

Maybe the front office is taking a risk and is trying to reel in the big fishes before settling for whitner. Kind of like when we tried to get Manning before re-signing smith.

Nothing about this front office to me says that they're angling for a big free agent catch, if you're expecting one you're most likely going to be very disappointed. If they do sign someone, it'll be someone that half the fanbase is either pissed off by or goes "meh" in response to.

Oh believe me I do not expect a huge signing with this front office, its just a though. I would very much like to re-sign Whitner to a 2 year extension and draft a safety that we can groom.

Kinda feel like Nate Allen could be a Dorsey this year.
