Late Wednesday night, San Francisco 49ers fans sighed in relief as wide receiver Deebo Samuel reportedly followed the team on Instagram once again, which could be a sign that the relationship is getting back on track.
Samuel, who scrubbed his account of everything 49ers related on April 7th, which was around the time of his reported trade request, was not moved during the draft as the 49ers stayed firm with their decision despite fielding multiple offers for the star receiver.
Now, almost a month later, Samuel has re-followed the team, once again utilizing his power of social media to express his thoughts.
Samuel's public trade request was a wake-up call for the 49ers, as their normal operating method when negotiating contracts, which involves a level of "low-balling" before reaching a compromise, backfired
While San Francisco has had contract disputes in the past, like those with tight end George Kittle and, more recently, left tackle Trent Williams, it never became public to the magnitude that the Samuel saga has.
While Samuel will almost assuredly earn more than that deal due to his All-Pro status, it provides an equilibrium between Brown's deal and the deal Tyreek Hill signed with the Miami Dolphins that the two sides can operate under.
The negotiations will continue to take time, but for now, it appears the relationship between Samuel and the 49ers organization is turning in a different direction than previously indicated.
Low balling or good negotiating??? How do you know there was even an offer? You offer no evidence just spit out what you perceive or have heard others say. Low balling would be 15 million per or less. Get out of here. Samuel is great in his role but wouldn't be as valuable anywhere else. Still not a great route runner & if the 49ers cut back on his running the ball which they will he becomes less valuable. I hope they sign him but for people blaming the 49ers for Deebo acting like a baby that's ignorant. Low balling, smh lol. How many games has this dude missed? He missed how many in college??? He's not going to get healthier as he ages.

The San Francisco 49ers likely aren't finished fortifying their defense and have reportedly expressed interest in bolstering their defensive backfield. If they require assistance making a significant move, one 49ers player is prepared to lend a helping hand.
Last week, the Buffalo Bills released All-Pro cornerback Tre'Davious White, who appears to be an ideal fit for San Francisco's needs opposite Charvarius Ward. Over the weekend, Ward took to social media to reveal that he and White share the same agent and that he is willing to nudge the free-agent defensive back in the right direction.
Ward described White as a "hand in glove
The San Francisco 49ers are bolstering their quarterback room by adding a new player. According to his agent, Mike McCartney, the team is signing Josh Dobbs to a one-year deal. McCartney announced the news on social media, confirming the acquisition.
