And Lynch and Martin got raises from the PPE for playing enough snaps in their first 3 seasons, $1.818M for Martin, $1.838M for Lynch, those are their new base salaries for 2017. Also 4 players signed reserve/future deals, WR Rashad Ross, OL Norman Price, PK Nick Rose, and P Brock Miller. Ross got a 1yr $615K deal, Price & Rose 2yrs ($465K and $555K), Miller 3 yrs ($465K, $555K, $645K).

Free Agency:
Of the five teams that spent the most money during 2015's free-agency period, for example, only one -- the New York Jets -- finished with a winning record. According to Cardinals reporter Mike Jurecki, of the 86 players chosen for the most recent Pro Bowl, only two -- Arizona's Mike Iupati (who was signed away from the 49ers) and the Jets' Darrelle Revis -- were free-agent acquisitions last year.

Pre & Post-June 1st (May 12th) consideration cuts could be, if needed:
Colin Kaepernick - Opted out/Released
Antoine Bethea - Released
Torrey Smith - Released
Ahmad Brooks - $5.3M potential cap savings
Tramaine Brock - Released - $3.55M cap savings
Eric Reid - $5.68M potential cap savings; deal is fully guaranteed now; trade potential only

Kyle Shanahan's WCO - ESPN
Kyle Shanahan's WCO
Traditionally the Z is the #1 WR, but Kyle did an outstanding job of moving Julio Jones around to all the spots (Z, X, Zebra/E/Eagle). I guess that's the ultimate goal to find a true number 1 that can play them all. As far as our personnel, Torrey is primarily an X. His speed is his main asset and that's needed to function as the split end. Again, a Julio Jones can do it all much like Jerry could so you could put him anywhere. Jeremy Kerley is a Slot/E/Eagle/Zebra and if we find a true Flanker or #1, he could be deadly.

ESPN's article above reviews Kyle's favorite plays. It featured 11 pass plays. Above are the primary, or in some cases, secondary receivers based strictly on position...Zebra is a Slot WR in 11 or 01 personnel situations. Y is the online TE. The article refers to Slot as W:
1) Z
2) Z/Zebra
3) Y/Zebra
4) HB
5) Z
6) Z
7) HB/X
8) X/HB
9) Z
10) Zebra
11) Y
