You wouldn't sign a player to a two year contract if he was "camp fodder"!

2 contract not guaranteed bro.

True, but then why not just make it for 1 year? I guess we'll find out.

Yah, hopefully he turns outs to be the next John Randle.

The San Francisco 49ers announced on Friday that they have signed free agent LB Brandon Long to a two-year contract.

Long (6-3, 254), tallied 68 tackles in four seasons at Michigan State, including 11.5 tackles for loss and 7.5 sacks, in 43 career games. As a senior in 2008, Long was named honorable mention All-Big Ten by the media and had a career-high 39 tackles, including 5.5 sacks.

Long, a 23-year old from Canton, OH, attended Glen Oak High School where he finished his prep career with 274 tackles, 34 for losses and 24 sacks.

Again?

Hopefully he makes a positive impression and finds a way onto the team or the PS at least. Dude's measurables make him look like he has some potential.

The two year contract thing is prob for Long to sit on the PS until one of our other OLBs gets injured.

Basically, I see Long as the Briggs in 2009. If LaBoy goes down, I can see Long activated to the 53 man roster.
