keep him and then decide when we have all the details.
Keep him till the league suspends him
Cut.

No brainer.

Maybe I go with 1-year suspension with no pay while paying his next rehab stay, if only to consider his personal well being aside from the game. But I doubt the CBA or league would allow such a thing.

IMO, they should wait it out, but Jalkee will cut him immediately.

Yep. Not very NinerTalk but the right thing to do.

How many posters want to see Aldon Smith in Seattle or Dallas colors by December?

I voted for keep him. He's too good to let him just walk to a division rival. He's our best player.

It sucks, because I want to strangle him. He's just too damn good to cut him IMO.

Guarantee that'll happen, keep him and await the facts

Um, if we cut him like most of the zone are calling for, we lose control of where he plays.

I wouldn't call 2 sacks in 7 games, our best player.

True. Calmer heads should prevail. I'm just pissed, that's all.

Cutting him now may also cause a cerfluffle with the players union. He's on the roster for next couple of weeks at least. And this isn't because the 49ers want to stay out of trouble, but the NFL may also want to minimize player union issues
