Niners Add Former Pro Bowl Guard Beadles

Mar 17, 2016 at 8:45 AM--


Back in 2012, Zane Beadles was a Pro Bowl guard with the Denver Broncos. His future looked bright with a team that made him a second-round pick out of Utah in 2010.But Beadles, now 29, has had his ups and downs since.He struck it rich in free agency two years ago, signing a five-year, $30 million deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars – but then was released earlier this month with three years remaining on his contract. He went from Pro Bowler to overpriced and expendable for a Jaguars team that seems finally to be on the rise.But, he wasn't unemployed for long. Beadles, a 6-foot-4, 310-pounder, is reported to have agreed to terms with the 49ers on a three-year, $11.75 million deal. After playing left guard in Jacksonville, he'll likely slip into the left guard spot for the Niners that was vacated when Alex Boone signed with the Vikings.The 49ers still need more help on the offensive line – a weak link in 2015 – but Beadle brings experience and durability. In six NFL seasons he's only missed two starts, and those were in his rookie season of 2010 when he played both left guard and right tackle. He's played at left guard ever since.But reviews are mixed about Beadles'...

49ers add pass rusher in new 7-round mock draft

Marcus Mosher of The 33rd Team revealed his latest mock draft, which goes seven rounds deep and projects every selection for every NFL team. While most predict that the San Francisco 49ers will add an offensive lineman with their first selection, No. 31 overall, Mosher has the Bay Area team going in a different direction. The writer and analyst has the Niners selecting former UCLA pass rusher Laiatu Latu in the first round. "It wouldn't be a shock to see Laiatu Latu fall in the draft due to his medical history, but he is too good of a value to pass up here at No. 31," Mosher wrote. "The San Francisco 49ers have been searching for the right pass

Former NFL wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh claims to have recently spoken to Brandon Aiyuk, stating that the star player has no desire to leave the San Francisco 49ers. Aiyuk and the 49ers are currently negotiating a contract extension, aiming to finalize a new deal. Of course, that hasn't prevented significant media speculation surrounding Aiyuk's future, with many wondering if the delay might hint at a potential trade. Well-informed 49ers fans know that the team typically finalizes its significant contract extensions closer to training camp, as seen with George Kittle in 2020, Fred Warner in 2021, and Deebo Samuel in 2022. Last year, negotiations with Nick Bosa concluded just days before Week
