49er FAs-Pre March 3rd action

Or lack thereof so far. Seeing players negotiating new deals and some getting tagged has me rooting hard for players like Frankling, Baas and Spikes to re-sign ASAP. I'd also love to see the Nate Clements situation get resolved one way or the other before the league year ends. We cannot lose Franklin if all others leave we have Bowman to cover Spikes, a C wouldn't be that devistating to lose, Goldston wasn't very good last year. Franklin is very key to our team. We can't tag him unless we want to pay him $12M/year so I really hope we are negotiating a long term deal with him right now.

I am guessing no FA, and the players stick around because the CBA does not get resolved until july-august. I sure hope I am wrong.

If it does work out, I think Greedy Goldson walks, and Franklin too, since I doubt they give him a long term contract.

I can't believe we're looking at mediation this time of year rather than FA. What a bummer.

If this mediation works in the next week or so we will all be happy and hopefully come out of this like a few years ago with a cb and safety. Lets hope for nmandi and atogwe or at least cromartie or joseph and keep our current safeties. Either way we should come out of fa with a starting RG and cb

That would be ideal, but signing two FA starters at positions of need is easier said than done. We have a better chance than some at Nmandi and if we don't sign him, Im sure we will land somebody. I'm just saying the possibility is slim for both. The CBA will determine a lot.
