Overall, I like your thinking here too. I'm wondering though, if signing Trumaine Johnson is the best use of the money. He is going to be expensive. I'm thinking the Niners go for a less sexy name but perhaps a player that is nearly as good...
Also, I don't think the team will sign 2 FA receivers. Of the two you mentioned, I would choose Moncrief because he is more of a red zone threat. After the emergence of Goodwin, I'm thinking that Gabriel would be a redundant pick up. Remember that Garcon, Goodwin, and Taylor are virtual locks for roster spots and the team seems to like Bourne quite a bit too. I think the Niners sign one FA wideout and draft another and call it even. The same thing with RB. I could see them signing 2 FA O-linemen and drafting 2 more though.
Nice work overall, man...
Cheers!
