The 49ers front office jumps on a private charter to Miami and speculation around the web starts to go wild. Turron Davenport of Niner Talk Central posted the following on Twitter earlier:
According to a source at Miami international airport, a flight to Miami has been chartered by John York & Trent Baalke set to land at 18:00.

Apparently, the flight has Jed and John York, Trent Baalke, Paraag Marathe, and legal/executive assistant Micheline Capaci.
In response, Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee humorously tweeted the following:
Obvious: Dropping off J Harbaugh; picking up J Martin @CharleyPeppers #49ERS front office is on private charter to Miami. What does it mean?

Jed York even tweeted the following in response to Davenport, confirming that he was in fact on the flight (It was reported earlier that it was just John York and not Jed York):
Hey @TDavenport_BSN, pretty sure I'm on a flight to MIA with my family. Keep getting you @49ers info from this guy pic.twitter.com/lXVfY02mjM

It could be that the entire front office is on the way to make some sort of trade. It could be that they are on their way to work on a contract with a 49ers free agent or extend someone's contract. It could be that they are all taking a fun vacation together. You take your coworkers on vacation too, right?
Turron Davenport later stated the following:
Correct owners meetings are in Orlando March 23-26 apparently there are other League meetings on Monday and Tuesday.

He also stated that "it is rare that two execs arrive for days before a meeting."
Why do you think the 49ers front office is headed to Miami?
