The Niners still take the cap hit. I'm not sure if there's way in th NFL for a team to absorb another team's cap hit. If there was I'm sure they would have tried to work that out.

For those wondering, the issue with a Deebo for Allen deal is that Allen costs $17M for any team trading for him, so on top of the $15.68M lose, they'd lose another $17M in cap room, and they'd likely decided not to pay Allen whatever he may want, especially being 30 now, or this season, I doubt the 49ers give out another Hargrave like deal to a 30yr old IDL, and restructure just creates more cap room loss in 2026.

Extend kittle
Originally posted by frenchmov:I read it went from 61mil to 34mil. Big hit but a few moves they could clear up 15-20mil
I didn't think about that part. What is our cap space AFTER deebo hit (including the raised total cap)?

So how is taking an additional $20M cap hit for a measley 5th round pick instead of releasing Deebo effective June 1 a good thing? We could have signed a couple of pretty good FA's with that money. The Commanders taking on Deebo's salary doesn't give us any more cap space, right? I think Lynch and Shanahan have lost their marbles!!!

Because they gained $33 mil in cap space next season. They can always free up more cap space by extending Fred Warner and George Kittl, which I heard gets the 9ers $20 mil back in cap space.

Ssems like they are sacrificing this season for 2026, which makes no sense if they are in "win now" mode with their older core group. If they are throwing in the towel, and in rebuild mode, then it makes sense, but not for making a Super Bowl run this season.
