So the current signings/trades that just happened answers your transparency concerns

Definitely helps to see FAs who want to work with Kyle and take a lesser deal. But it's all a combination of factors weighed subjectively, and these are just relevant data points.

From the article about Christian Kirk today, I thought it was interesting that he said there have been conversations about EMF concerns, but those conversations haven't been with the organization. I don't think conspiracy theorists are the only ones who are unsatisfied.

There are sub stations all over the country, all over the world, and a single group of people are the ONLY folks affected by the output from those stations? Nothing in the medical journals about mass injury or infections directly related to proximity to these structures. Why is that?

To be clear, I'm not convinced or advancing the position that the substation is the cause. My argument is that people who matter like free agents remain unconvinced by Lynch's public statement (as evidenced by Christian Kirk) and that greater transparency into the team's investigation and results could help convince people.

That said, I suspect the argument is something along the lines of those millions you're referring to are not playing a highly physical sport that puts the same kind of strain on their bodies as pro NFL players. But you'd be better served asking someone who believes the theory to explain.

You said free agents (implying multiple) but only named one.

care to elaborate on how many free agents and who you are referring to?

The so called Kirk evidence is also not evidence as there's no timeline of when he did his due diligence

You're right I don't have other specific evidence of what other free agents think, but I've seen multiple comments from current and former 49ers, as well as players for other teams around the league, expressing concern or uncertainty about it. That is evidence of what at least some players think about it, and I don't think it's unreasonable to surmise that some free agents think that way such that it is a factor in their decision making.

What's the evidence that free agents don't care at all about it?

That's inconclusive in both directions—your response neither proves nor disproves anything. Just raises a question we can't answer.

It proves that you don't know and now you agree. That was my point from the start

Robert Jones terms, 1yr, $1.75M, $1.64M fully GTD, $1.655M cap hit, $1.3M Base(fully GTD), $340K signing bonus, $85K per game roster bonus, $25K workout bonus, have the 49ers at $30.352M under they $340.19M adjusted salary cap.

So basically it's being around the sweet spot for OL spending.

Which makes a lot of sense. I've been saying it for many years why going all in on OL is dumb. The teams who have spent the most are bad. And then you've also had teams like the cowboys and lions who invested a lot and they have nothing to show for it.

It's all about developing and getting the right guys scheme wise. Only so much cap room is available, so the idea of having 3-4 elite OL is impossible to do so without hurting the rest of your roster.

My thoughts on Jack Jones signing.

I have no issues with it, he likely didn't get more than a 1yr $2.5M deal, so he shouldn't even count against the comp pick formula, and being this late in FA he wasn't gonna get a big deal, so not gonna be mad, same with the Sample signing, it's a low risk, high reward deal, like Robert Jones who only got a 1yr $1.75M deal, so honestly it's not a big deal if he doesn't work out and is cut at final cuts, plus you have a 90-man roster, well 91 with Alarcon since he's the international pathway program player, so they have 77 players signed, so they have 14 roster spots open right now, likely will be all rookies, plus the futures signings will likely end up being cut, well most of them when we sign UDFAs.

I actually think he may be better or as good as any CB on our roster.

Dude that's so f**king shameful. You can't do s**t like this unless you literally were clamoring for Pearce with pick #11 and you have proof.

I would have picked Pearce. I would rather draft a pass rusher at #11 overall. Than a set the edge run stopper. Who later got injured. But you don't pick that so high with pass rushers who are fast twitch on the board. Look how that would have helped us this year. Pass rush is what we need the most.

Lol

And yet he was arrested recently, and has/had off field issues, and clearly hasn't learned from them.
