Kinda wild they want to drop Juice and have him take payouts but this guy gets 11 million guaranteed. I understand they wanted a blocker but this signing has been a massive whiff.

Whoever approved this signing should either be fired or never have any say in personnel decisions

Probably our starter next year with the money they gave him as Kittle will be out for most if not all trying a comeback.

He has no guaranteed money for 2026, so should definitely cut him.... he sucks

Not dogging it, he just sucks ... horrible signing by Kyle.... he has the worst personnel judgement

Saubert was way better than Ferrell

Just a total waste.

one of the worst signing in years

Can't block, and very stiff ... looks like Lurch running routes

I said the same thing. He's so stiff.

Look he's not a good player and that's me being nice here I think, but there's no excuses about that lack of effort on the interception. No excuses. I would fire this clown today after something like that. I would be ashamed if I was Farrell on that play. Man, the team was destroyed and was gonna lose but you still have to fight. You still have to help your teammates. And even without that horrible lack of effort, I would still cut him because he's not even a good blocker.

Looked like he's never played a game of catch in his life out there. Ball went right under his arm while he tried some basketball box out move on the defender...

Dead cap if we cut him is nearly 3.5 million

He routinely made bad plays all year long. Not even a good blocker. He should be cut asap

Could have just drafted Jackson Hawes, he made an impact as a blocker for Buffalo and for far less money. Hawes went with one of the last picks of the 5th round and was probably the most dominant blocking TE to come out in the draft over the past few years.

I can't think of one standout play he had other than recovering a fumble in the air and gaining 3 yards (on a forced fumble he allowed).

Garbage player

This felt like one of those players that could obviously help the 49ers, but of course, they always get cute by drafting a RB that they didn't use the entire regular season.
