we should just buy that contract.. pay him what he wants and now we have our RT problem all solved.. that would also almost make up for not signing crabbypants cus its like we got the #6 pick... thoughts?

Don't think it would work under the CBA.

Also, I don't think we'd offer more than #10 money, and I really don't think Smith would take anything less than #6 money, ie greater than DHB. Bengals aren't offering that, and it's the reason he's not signed now.

They own his rights but if they don't want to sign him can't they trade his rights to us?

I think Kwame Harris is still available also.

Source: Marvel Smith is done

Just moments after we posted on 49ers tackle Marvel Smith possibly retiring, Mike Florio has confirmed through a league source that Smith is, indeed, through with football.

Smith was originally expected to start at right tackle, but his back problems wouldn't allow it. It's uncertain if Smith earned any guaranteed money from the 49ers, but the team did include clauses in their contract with Smith to protect them from injuries.

Smith won two Super Bowl rings in nine seasons with Pittsburgh, and started throughout their championship run after the 2005 season.PROFOOTBALLTALK.COM

The deadline has past to trade his rights.

I'm sure McCloughan will be scouring the waiver wire next week as final cuts are being made.
