LaMichael James was a Niner (CUT!)

GET WINSTON BACK

I wish we could have sent him to Ravens for a late round pick. I wouldn't doubt we tried after Rice being cut and Pierce being benched. No doubt in my mind he was the voice of discontent in locker room. There are probably a few others that were drafted but have seen little playing time that were on his side. I also don't doubt veterans were pissed with practice vs. Ravens but I don't think it was to point to dissension probably just normal amount of resistance and annoyance when anyone is asked to do more than expected.

LMJ ,like Jacobs, can have fun looking for work somewhere else and since the season already started he should have no problem being buried on another depth chart.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

No surprise. My concern is who do we bring in as a 3rd rb? Position was considered deep in offseason but now with hunter out and James released we are thin as far as depth

Activate Kendall Gaskins from the practice squad !

What a waste of a roster spot. Should have kept Winston.

I thought the same thing, I'm wondering if he has been the source of Florio's/rapoports "inside informant"

this. what were they thinking? lets try you out for a game and continue to see you suck ass like before. Lost a player on a deep roster because whoever couldnt pull the trigger when they needed to.

Oh thank the Lord !! Finally (even it was LMJ who requested the release) !!

All I can say is I wish I could have Winston back !! What a waste !! Baalke cut him for LMJ and for what ?!

First off, let's just say no more of these so-called small "change of pace" backs. We are in the NFC West, the most physical division in football. Just look at Seattle for starters, all 3 of their tailbacks are powerbacks. Believe it or not, Beast Mode is the smallest guy they got at 215 lbs and both Turbin and Michael are both over 220 lbs.

Now promote that Gaskins guy from PS to the 53 and see what he's got.

I was pretty certain that LMJ was the "source" of Rapoport's hit piece. This release confirms it. He was pretty worthless as a running back and receiver. He was hyped as a Darren Sproles type of player. He never showed much speed or any tackle breaking abilities.

anybody have the FA list? we dont have a lot of cash to spend...

49ers grant LaMichael James request to release him, his agent @jeffsperbeck says.

As it turns out, team should not have cut Glenn Winston.

I for one am happy to see James go.

Alphonso Smith did a good job in the preseason and adds ST's utility, so he might be an option.
