Marcus McNeill is not going anywhere. Without a CBA he'll be an RFA. With a CBA, he's most likely getting the franchise tag. Teams don't let 26 year old Pro Bowl caliber tackles go, and if they do, the price is very, very high.

You might be right. I still think one of the Chargers Free Agents like Floyd will be the odd man out as far as not getting tagged. We can go after him. They have Nerriman, Sproles, Jackson, McNeill, and Floyd hitting free agency this year. Teams have 1 franchise tag and 2 transitiion tags this year, so that will leave 2 good players to go after. Most likely Floyd and Meriman.

I really, really hope that can be the case. I think Pashos under Solari will blossom though. He is a solid RT IMO.

without a cba, they are all RFA's.

Thats right. Because of the 5 year rule right?
Carlos Rodgers has some bad football instincts from a CB. I think i seen him drop about 5 int's this year and he is constantly I mean constantly getting burnt on double moves. not a bad player but I just don't see him as an upgrade. I like Landry. and what about Roth from Cleveland? Niners should try to get that guy again.

i remember that hit...what a thing of beauty. Patrick Willis is unbelievable
If you listen to the webzone, then we should go after every single free agent.
I like Malcolm Floyd a lot, but I doubt we spend the $$ for another WR.

would love to do this, but don't think we will be able to! Would be great if we could pick up an OT in FA and then draft a G with one of the top 3 picks
