Linderbaum got a 3 year deal with the Raiders for $81 million. By far the biggest deal ever for a center. No way the Niners would have offered that even if they wanted him.

We really should be looking at % of cap space vs. absolute numbers. It's roughly 9% of '26 cap space, perhaps lower if there are void deals or unattainable incentives.

My hypothesis is that it's closer to 6-7%, which is not bad for a blue chip player. Raiders can afford it because they have a young roster with a rookie starting QB. Now with the news of Geno Smith being cut and Crosby traded, the only $20M+ player they have on the roster is Kolton Miller.

Time to load up wisely.

They already have bowers and jeanty and with a rookie qb they can sign some good players

These corners are getting paid. Niners might just need to give Green another shot and draft a corner.

I understand but 9% is a lot more cap space than any other team has used for a center. The Raiders can afford it so mor epower to them. The Niners couldn't.

Don't be crazy. They need to think long term here with those Comp picks. Like Long snapper. For competition.lol
