Just because he is tendered for a first round pick doesnt necessarily mean that the team who accepts a trade has to recieve a first rounder.

For example, he is tendered at a 1st round level, but the Ravens own Gaither's rights right now, and can trade him for anything.

Remember when we had Brandon Lloyd tendered at a 1st round level, and the Redskins had no first round picks. We traded Brandon Lloyed away for a 3rd and 4th rounder because we owned his rights.

So technically, the 49ers can give up the 17th pick for Gaither.

You are correct. But if we actually sign him to an offer sheet and they refuse it will be our #13.

Which tells me it will either be #13 or nothing. I don't see Balt intentionally trading him for a mid teen pick just to try and draft another guy to play LT. Wouldn't make any sense.

But if we make an offer they can't match. Then they have no choice but to take the #13 and hope for the best.

If Gaither leaves, Oher moves to LT

i would like this trade for our 13th pick! he is a proven player ha ha i sound like a briken record im sure! didnt even read the rest of the thread ha ha! baltimore gets boldin and gives us gaither, sounds like a fair trade for our 13th pick ha ha!

I'd rather it be our #17.

Can't trade a pick that wasn't originally yours. For instance, if Seattle wants Marshall, and Denver sticks to their guns about his tender, it's going to be for the 6th or no 1st rounder this year. You can only trade your own earned picks.

That's not true. You can TRADE any pick. But if an offer sheet is signed and compensation is to be awarded. It HAS to be your pick. But you can trade any pick you have if deal is reached. It just has to actually be a trade and not compensation for the actual tender.

I can't understand why people actually believe this bulls**t! It has no credibility what-so-ever. The Bleacher Report is someone's opinion.

I don't think people believe it, but now people are starting to think it would be a good idea to sign him and trae a 1st for him.

Yeah, so now they'll get their hopes up, then they'll b***h and complain if the 49ers don't do it or can't pull off a trade for Gaither.

Why wouldn't we "b***h and complain?"

Even Patrick Willis is "b***hing and complaining" about how lousy our front office is right now. No moves whatsoever other then David f**king Carr? Ugh

Not talking about the David Carr move, but I think the reason for not making any 1st rate signings have to do with father and son Yorks.

I thought Scott made roster decisions am I wrong?

True he does, but owners give the go ahead on money. If the Yorks really wanted to spend money on free agents, they would, see 2007.

The Yorks control the purse strings, but we've got several key young players that are looking at huge extensions in the near future.

I don't think the Yorks are cheap, just trying to build a new stadium and retain the talent we already have.

I wasn't trying to imply that they are being cheap, just saying that I think the Yorks are holding off on spending big for awhile.

I think Jared Gaither would simply come in to replace Pashos (once Pashos flees back to his boyfriend OC in D.C.), and help mentor the rookie Tackle/depth of the o-line.

But if anybody thinks for one second Jared Gaither should make us think less about taking a tackle in the first round is living in Marvel Smith la-la-land.

Jared Gaither is 24 and is really good. He would not be a mentor.

yeah, dudes a beast
no more wasting time lets go!

Gaither was by far our best offensive lineman and one of the top tackles. The problem with Gaither is his toughness. He gets hurt way too much for a guy who is only 23-years old and is even younger in football years.
