Such overblown nonsense.

No it isn't. You can't just ignore all of that stuff. I'm in the middle with him, don't think he's the extreme "cancer" but no question he's a drama queen diva. You actually think he would be happy run blocking in the Vikings and Packers game because we won?

How you figure? Maybe Kyle wanted a guy who had his best year in his system
Over Dorsett?
Nah I doubt that. We didn't have the cap for Dorsett

Didn't have the cap?

Short for cap space. He took an expensive one year deal I bet with Seattle
OBJ will never don a Niners uniform...for several reasons. Coach has some history w/Benjamin. He'll know how to use him. It's a 1-yr contract.

Yup yup

I hope that Benjamin still has something in him and not just another bench warmer like Mathews

Thank God we got this guy instead of a real difference-maker like OBJ

Let's hope we trade the 31st pick this year for Odell Beckham Jr. and maybe throw in a player or possibly a third or fourth rounder next year.

Then at 13 we could trade back a little bit to get a second or third round pick or even both so we can draft our interior lineman as well as a corner. We would be set because Beckham Jr. will make Jimmy Garoppolo look even better and the fact that our pass protection sucks at times, and the fact he gets open so quick will really help Jimmy G.

Our passing game and interior OL is our only weakness and this will upgrade it immensely because he is an elite wide receiver

Yes it is. He's not a locker room cancer.

I said he's a bit of a diva, who cares about that? Some of the best WRs of all time got some diva in them.

Has he ever complained once about blocking or not getting the ball a ton WHEN they were winning?

Overblown media junk

Considering SF was trying to trade for him this time last yr and even chris simms (Kyle's bro) has stated kyle loves him some OBJ. So to say never is a bit of a reach imo.

Yep, this is a good signing. It sends a message to some of the down-roster guys that your spot is not secure. Competition all down the roster.

Can we get a special teams coach to push Richard Hightower? That dude has has 3 of the best return men in college history in Pettis, Reed and Mostert and a special team weapon in Wishnowsky and doesn't use any of them and can't get anything out of them...sticks with "safe" Taylor or James.

LOL. Fans still trying to justify inactivity because of the "cap?"

These are conscious decisions, people.

This is an important observation. Benjamin is an elite punt returner as well. 10.9 yards per return is good for 25th All time.

The last 3 signings have all been for ST. No doubt, after a terrible Superbowl, Richie James finally has some real competition.
