i'm sure baalke will put that 6th round pick to very good use. like he does all our other picks.
At least he could start somewhere else. Here he is 4th on the depth chart. How much would the niners save
Makes sense now that they know Borland is starter-quality.

Not much. He's cheap. It's more about getting draft value out of a guy that won't play much.
Seems like they could do better than a 6th rounder

They might after Trent Cole after all
Yeah he was a good starter last year and filled in well two years in a row now. Sadly 6th is the best we could probably get although the inside LB FA market is crap right now. Try a 5th!
Not sure they will get much for him, he is going to make the minimum of $585K for 2015.

Wonder if Washington gets in on Michael Wilhoite trade market? Could be a starting ILB in a 3-4 for late-round pick.

even a 6th sounds like a longshot to me.

GM Trent Baalke said LB Michael Wilhoite is a starter. But he likely won't get that chance with 49ers this season.
Seriously give him to a desperate team for a 5th. He is a starting ilb on a lot of teams. We just have the best lb core by far in the nfl so hard to keep 4 starters

Totally unrelated. Different positions.
