SF_49ers: We have signed free agent LB Brandon Long to a two-year contract.

Niner Insider (April 2009)

Quote:

Spartan Brandon Long created a small stir with his pro day. He ran a 4.61 40 and bench pressed 225 32 times. The guy looks like he doesn't have an ounce of fat on him; can the 49ers harness the athleticism to rush the passer? This guy will could push Jay Moore for a roster spot.

Long was eligible to be selected in the 2009 NFL Draft, but went undrafted. He agreed to a free agent contract with the San Francisco 49ers, but failed his physical and never joined the team.

You wouldn't sign a player to a two year contract if he was "camp fodder"!

He failed a physical last year as an undrafted free agent because of a foot injury.

True, but then why not just make it for 1 year? I guess we'll find out.
