Imagine a pass rush rotation of Bosa, Ford, Griffen and a healthy Blair.

QBs will be sh!ttn themselves the whole week leading up to playing those guys on Sunday.

With other NFC West teams being mentioned as interested in Griffen, it would be a double positive to bring him in. Also as previously mentioned, if there are any injuries to Bosa or Ford, the Niners are pretty thin at DE.

Come on Paarge, sign Kittle and figure out a way to make this happen.

Would Griffen be being a back up or rotational guy??

Great question. As good as Ford is, he hasn't proven to be an every-down player. Could they start Griffen and maintain Ford on obvious passing downs to keep him playing through the SB...

I'm sure Griffen wants to get PAID, but he's cashed a lot of paychecks. How valuable would it be for him to have a shot at a ring?

I'd only take him at this point if we traded Dee Ford. Kittles extension is looming, so is Tartt, Williams, and Juice. Dee Ford wud free up $14+M., and this move alone (or move Coleman too, $5M cap savings), could do this. Griffin will cost, but not as much as Ford is right now.

These guys can command a fairly decent two to three year contract with a pre-season IR designation on a team in need (think JJ Watt going down in PS game one)…. That's a lot of free'd up cash.

Shocking a team hasn't scooped him up, a lot can use him, a team like the jets makes sense, I literally can't name 1 pass rusher they have. Oh 1, the kid from Georgia lol

He's currently my second favorite non 49er in the NFL.

He's got some issues but he's a good dude.

Yeah I've read his problems have to do with hurting himself more then anything.
