The Miami Dolphins have signed Broncos restricted free-agent RB C.J. Anderson to a 4-year offer sheet, giving Denver five days to match or lose him. The San Francisco 49ers, who have been looking for some running back help, showed interest in Anderson.
Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee
reported the 49ers' interest yesterday. "While splitting carries with Ronnie Hillman for most of the season, Anderson finished 2015 with 720 rushing yards (4.74-yard avg.) and five touchdowns. He started Super Bowl 50 and rushed for the team's only offensive touchdown," Barrows pointed out.
There are also some questions regarding the durability of Hyde, who missed nine games last season with a broken foot. Hyde
appears to be recovering well and is on track to take part in the team's offseason activities.

With the August 30th cutdown date coming ever so soon, it's becoming more realistic that the San Francisco 49ers will release quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo due to the lack of available trade candidates, especially with teams understanding that the organization will likely move on in ten days.
NBC Sports' Peter King made an appearance on "49ers Talk" with insider Matt Maiocco and shared his beliefs that, if released, the veteran signal-caller should wait for an opportunity to rise after being released rather than signing immediately, contrary to public opinion.
"If I were Jimmy Garoppolo and I got my release, I think there's a very good chance I might want to wait until some team out there has a crying need," King told NBC Sports Bay Area's Matt Maiocco on "49ers
