We way overpaid for him
I can dig it. Really want to see full details of the contract though.

Upgrade over Torrey Smith

IMO we are already better talent wise then we were last year and free agency hasn't even officially started yet.

So true!

Yup, need the big-bodied Z...so, Britt, Pryor or Jeffery and resign Streater for depth. Done.

You're way too predictable.

Garcon had to ask who will be throwing him the ball, and it looks like got a really good answer.

John Lynch was a QB going into Stanford

It would be a great signing for sure!
Well it seems like players actually wanna play in San Francisco this year under Lynch/ Shanny. Good sign of things to come.

Let's wait to see the details of the contract before saying that.

stop complaining. The 49ers had a billion dollars worth of cap room. The deal is front loaded meaning that they will be little dead money at the back end of the deal.

Didn't he tear an ACL last year? I thought he went on the IR with a knee issue.

I thought the Z/Flanker was often the "go to" possession type, I'd think Garcon would fit that role
TOP 50 NFL FREE AGENTS OF 2017

25. Pierre Garçon, WR, Washington Redskins
Pierre Garçon's issue is advancing age, because on play alone, he would be far higher. He ended 2016 with a PFF grade of 85.8, good enough for eighth among all wideouts, and he has a complete skill-set, able to beat people with speed, power and gain yards after the catch. He dropped only one pass in 2016 from 110 targets, and even had a solid blocking grade. He won't be a long-term answer for anybody, but may be among the better immediate-impact signings.

Haven't even seen the real breakdown of his contract yet, though you're probably right he is getting overpaid LOL. Still, totally solid FA pickup.
