Early Look at 2011 FA

I have included pending FAs who have agreed or signed new deals with there 2010 team.

QB:

Troy Smith- 49ers veteran to start while groom rookie.


RB:

Brian Westbrook- 49ers veteran backup who should be cheap.




OL:


David Baas- 49ers cheap incentive laced deal only please

Logan Mankins- Patriots break the bank since Mankins is worth every penny

Tony Wragge- 49ers veteran who could play every position and above average backup at OG and C.
Barry Sims- 49ers possible resign depending on draft and Boone development

Davin Joseph- Buccaneers very big road grater. Has been huge for Tampa's running game since he stepped on the field. Joseph is everything our staff hoped Chilo would be. Won't be a cheap signing.

Max Jean-Giles- Eagles another big road grater that is a RB's best friend. Just look at LeSean McCoy production in Philly.

DT:


Shaun Rogers- Browns trying to sneak a gun onto a plane might lower his asking price. Being labeled a lazy trouble maker might be a good project for a motivator like Singeltary.

Haolti Ngata- Ravens break the bank since Ngata is worth every penny

Aubrayo Franklin- 49ers cheap incentive laced deal only please



DE:


Ray McDonald- 49ers a top priority to resign. Should be retained for cheap. Excellent situational player.

Robaire Smith- Browns upgrade over Evans?
Richard Seymour- Raiders big name player on the wrong side of 30. Doubt he leaves Oakland though.
Tamba Halli- Chiefs break the bank since Hali is worth every penny


LB:


Manny Lawson- 49ers cheap incentive laced deal only please
Ben Leber- Vikings might be another option if Spikes leaves. Wrong side of 30 might make him expendable in Minnesota. Has experience in 3-4 and coached by Manusky in San Diego.



LaMarr Woodley- Steelers break the bank since Woodley is worth every penny
Takeo Spikes- 49ers veteran backup to stick around until Bowman/McKillop/rookie can take over.
Shawne Merriman- Chargers maybe worth one more shot. Greg Manusky link.


CB:


Chris Houston- Lions
Eric Wright- Browns
Lito Sheppard- Vikings
Will Blackmon- Packers
Ellis Hobbs- Eagles
all decent nickle or dime CB's. Might even become starting candidates if team decides to part ways with Clements.

S:

Dashon Goldson- 49ers cheap incentive laced deal only please

Wright is awful. He looked decent his first few seasons but hes been burned every game this season and lost his job to Joe Haden. He was pretty pretty much responsible for T.O.'s 220 yard game early this year as well as giving up catch after catch to the Bills' slot receivers last week. Hes become a target for every QB week after week to pick on.

Dolphins NT Paul Soliai, an impending free agent, is expected to be in high demand in 2011.
Originally penciled in as a backup to Randy Starks at the beginning of the season, Soliai has keyed a run defense that has allowed just 54.5 yard at 2.3 per carry over the past four games. At 6'4" and 355 pounds, he has ideal size for a 3-4 nose tackle. Pro Football Focus ranks Soliai as the 13th best interior lineman in the NFL this year.

Didn't realize Paul Soliai was having that great of a season. He is an upcoming free agent and according to rotoworld he will be in pretty high demand. He is only 26 years old and would be a great addition to our team (pending we stick with 3-4)
