49ers to sign TE Logan Paulsen (via @falFallonSmithCSN), interested in Martellus Bennett (via @benvolin)
Interest in Bennett too? Must not feel comfortable with Bell and Celek.

McDonald, Paulsen, and a mid-round TE in the draft (there's probably 10 good ones to choose from)...

PFF ranked Paulsen 7th in run blocking, 22nd in pass blocking among qualifying TEs.

Where will Marty Bennett land? I'm told Jags, Raiders and 49ers all have interest. Bennett likes idea of being near Silicon Valley

Bennett here does that mean Vance is done?

Doubt it, we just signed him to that extension. Then again, that was before Shanahan and Lynch were brought on board.
If we land Bennett we could have nice 2 TE monster and some insurance if Vance doesn't live up to his paycheck.

Blocked for Kyle Shanahan in WAS. Should be well versed in outside zone and give Celek/Bell competition at TE#2.

Celek is also signed for 3 more years at a very affordable 2.5 million avg. Vance is coming it at 4.3 million this year and it spikes to over 6 million over the next three years.

Thanks, thats actually not too bad. I thought the cap charges for Vance would be higher but its very manageable.
