49ers after Olin Kreutz

He said Retirement is an option.........I say F that......come to Ninerville Olin......
We will not sign a center imo. They are saying that Snyder is doing great at the position, we have resigned Wragge, who has expirience as center and we drafted two guys to play center. We will not pick up another center.

We should of paid Baas top dollar. I dont think it would of been any more than we gave Ray Mac. So what?

Do you think Baas is worth a 5 year 26 millions dollar contract?

Honestly? If Ray Mac is worth 5 million at 20million plus, why would Baas be worth 5 for 26? It's a very important position and we dont have a legit back up.

Morover, he's still pretty young and showed a lot of promise his first year at the position. We wouldn't of had to worry about the line for a long time.

Baas is not a top 3 center in the league, no f**king way.

Because we totally need more of this

We are going to see a LOT more of this with Snyder at Center...it is a very important and skilled position and this is what happens...mark my words, we will regret putting Snyder there...

Still pretty young? He'll be 30 Within the first month of the season. Not worth it. You want a guy that everyone here complained about for his first few seasons and then in his contract year he does better? That's not a guy I want to give a long term contract to.

He did that once.

Agreed, I'd rather pay Olin for a year or 2 and groom a young stud behind him! Colin and alex need someone that can do his job so they can do theirs!
Put Chilo at C, he won't get beat as much there!
i liked baas at center but you guys are idiots if you think he was good. he was basically just like heitman jr.: got pushed around, constantly needed help and we had runners stuffed in the backfield up the middle all day long.

now part of the issue was obviously scheme, but iupati didn't get b***hed all day like baas did. i would have liked to keep him but for what the giants paid it's ridiculous. maybe he'll have better luck with the giants but he wasn't worth that on our team.
LOL Kretuz doesn't want to be a 49er
