Trumaine Johnson I'm almost expecting to be a 49er, Robinson not so much. I think the Ravens, Dolphins, Panthers and Browns could all be in the hunt for Robinson. I think it's gonna be too much of a bidding war him that the 9ers pull outta the race. I'm expecting WR's like Paul Richardson and Sammy Watkins (if he sees the market) to be targets for the 49ers.

Only problem with Ravens and Phins is they literally have no money. The Browns don't have a QB as of now but the Panthers do make some sense.

Got to look at it through the perspective of Arob as well, he's not gonna get a long-term commitment because of the ACL. It's probably gonna be a AJ type deal, he's gonna go where he will have the best opportunity to get those stats for the BIG contract.

Trust me I would love for the 9ers to come outta this the winners but I just don't see it happening. I'm hoping the 9ers have strong interest in him, just not gonna get my hopes up.

I also wouldn't count out Chicago as well.
Exactly...AR can get the $ he wants this year or long term here next year AND get to play for a premier FQB who will only get better.

Is there a better option if he's serious about $ and his long term career?

Serious question...

When the media and players say SF will be the place to be in free agency, I hope it wasn't just all talk.
ARob will be a niner for sure.

I mean, logically, there are only a handful of teams who can afford any high priced free agents, even less who can offer up big upfront $ and then throw in a FQB signed for 5 more years and Kyle and his offense in particular, if you're an offensive player, you've struck gold in FA. With our own players stating players are trying to get here, I can believe it, objectively.

Careers are made in this offense and you get paid too? Sign me up!
I think he will be looking for a one year prove it deal. I think we would be one of the top places for it with our system. Hopefully we can sign him to a two year at least then Garcon will be off the books and we can sign him long term after this short one if he looks good (and I think he will).

On paper SF is the place to be:

GM - John Lynch - seems to be well liked by the fans and media.

HC -Kyle Shananan - His offense is on the right path and well known around the league.

QB - Jimmy G. - Everybody and their mama's in love with this guy.

Cap space - $60-$68 million

Hoping Shanahan has some real interest in him. Crossing my fingers!!!

Give Robinson a 2 year deal, with the second year being an option.

Why would he sign that? Surely if he was willing to take a short term deal the Jags would have found a way to keep him.

It's long term deal or a ridiculous (above franchise) 1 year deal.
I'm gonna be super pissed if we don't sign this guy

I think he might have to settle for a 1yr deal ala Alshon Jeffery and prove he is healthy. Then he will get his payday (Like Jeffery) though I think Robinson is an even better all-around player and also younger. I really, really hope we make a run for this guy. It's super rare a #1 WR hits free agency and this case the #1 WR is only 24 yrs old and is a really good character kid to (another rarity for #1 WR's LOL)

1yr $9-10mill with incentives or 4-5yrs $50-60mill

Exactly. For all those reasons he will be offered a multiple year deal. There are ways to protect the team for injury on a multiple year deal. It doesn't have to be short term or bust. Niners are masters at this.
