Finally, it's here. We better get a pass rusher and a guard/center to start things off. Let's go Baalke, do it. Bacardi and cola. Do it. Do it

Hey bro. No more sports Misc for ya and Phoenix? I miss you guys(no homo)

Clements wasn't really a bust but in the end definitely wasn't worth his contract.

Former #Cowboys RB Lance Dunbar to visit #49ers, source said.

I'm convinced he wants to roll all this money into next year.

We're sitting pretty with Kap man. After Osweiler signed with Houston Kap became the best "available" QB on the market. My guess is we're talking to a handful of teams about him and are trying to get someone to come up off a high draft pick or two.

I'd be surprised if he isn't traded before the weekend.

I think people aren't getting the fact the niners could of paid reasonable deals to
Brooks 8 mil
Irvin 10 mil (somewhat reasonable)
And a few other contracts that were good today. Danny T probably wanted to go with fox so I won't use that as an example.

You're assuming those guys wanted to come here. What we are willing to pay someone is irrelevant if other teams are paying the same/similar and they want to go there and not here.

You could hold him until closer to the draft if it makes a team sweat and up an offer. Riskier though

What's up, genus. Good to hear from you. I lurk over there on occasion, but spend more time here, despite the deep, deep levels of hell this place has descended into.

True on Clements. Not an outright bust and certainly wasn't helped by the lack of talent around him, but seems like a bust since we gave him an 8 year, $80 M deal. Haha. Nate Clements was the highest paid defender in the history of the NFL for a while there.
