49ers will not make an effort to re-sign Beasley

Feb 28, 2006 at 12:42 PM--


According to Matt Maiocco of the Press Democrat, fullback Fred Beasley's days with the San Francisco 49ers may be numbered. The team is not likely to make much of an effort to re-sign Beasley and he will become an unrestricted free agent on March 3rd. Instead, the team would rather re-sign free agent fullback Chris Hetherington.

Beasley has fallen out of favor with the coaching staff and saw his playing time drastically reduced during the 2005 season. He was drafted by the 49ers in 1998 out of Auburn and impressed the coaching staff so much that they were willing to trade their starter, Marc Edwards, before the 1999 season.

Beasley has started 80 games for the 49ers.

Jason Kelce: 49ers adding Javon Hargrave "not going to make it any easier" for Eagles

By David Bonilla

Adding Javon Hargrave was a huge (and shocking) addition by the San Francisco 49ers. While it seems like a perfect fit and addresses a significant team need, no one saw it coming. The Niners didn't have considerable salary cap space, so signing Hargrave to a four-year, $84 million deal was unexpected. The former Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle, nicknamed "Grave Digger," joins a defensive line that includes NFL Defensive Player of the Year Nick Bosa and Arik Armstead, bolstering the middle of that unit. One of the defender's former teammates is happy for Hargrave and his financial good fortune. However, he also knows the loss could be problematic for the defending NFC champions in the upcoming season. "I'm happy for my man, Grave Digger," Eagles

The San Francisco 49ers ended the questions around their center debacle when they re-signed starter Jake Brendel to a four-year deal worth $20 million on Tuesday, locking up a key player from their offensive line a season ago. Brendel, 30, reportedly received more money from the New York Jets, but elected to remain in San Francisco on a four-year deal, providing the 49ers with a capable option at center, a position the organization has heavily valued during the Kyle Shanahan era. Here are the key implications of Brendel's new deal with the 49ers. 49ers in C market The San Francisco 49ers were definitely involved in the center market, as they placed an interest in multiple players at the top of the market at a position that didn't see

The San Francisco 49ers made a splash move on the first day of the legal tampering period, signing Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Javon Hargrave on a four-year, $84 million deal that includes $40 million guaranteed. Hargrave, 30, had become the top defensive tackle on the market after the Washington Commanders franchise-tagged Daron Payne and extended him to a four-year, $90 million deal, and now gets handsomely paid by the 49ers, who will pair their marquee free agent with fellow interior lineman Arik Armstead. Hargrave has been an underrated contributor for



What to make of the 49ers signing QB Sam Darnold

By Rohan Chakravarthi

After a major splash in defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, the San Francisco 49ers have reached an agreement with Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold on a one-year deal. Darnold, 25, is coming off a tumultuous season with the Carolina Panthers where he finished strong as the starting quarterback, and was expected to receive interest on the open market in a backup role. However, he lands with the 49ers on a one-year deal, which currently places him as the backup quarterback behind Trey Lance, but likely ends as the third-string option when Brock Purdy returns from his UCL injury near the beginning of the regular season. Darnold's fit From the 49ers perspective, Sam Darnold is a solid signing as a player with starting experience,
