2020 free agency

Ndamokung Suh and Robby Anderson both would've had to have come in at discounted price tags of about $6 million per year max, per my estimates, for those signings to fit into the 49ers' salary cap puzzle. Came in at $8m and $10m. A big George Kittle extension is priority No. 1.

Great 49ers gift ideas ⇨

I love all his articles, but yeah he's full of s**t thinking they couldn't have signed someone like Suh. He's really on the FOs nuts this off season...there's nothing wrong with saying they've done a poor job in FA. It's okay to be a little critical, but he won't do that.

I think Suh picked Tampa because of Tom Brady and their chances of going to the Super Bowl. IMO

I think they are next years Browns with an aging Brady trying to learn a new offense. Paper tigers.

Yeah 9-7 team competing with teams like minn atl philly and sea for the last 2 wild card spots

The #49ers were among the teams that strongly pursued DT Ndamukong Suh before he signed a one-year, $8 million deal with the Bucs, per @RapSheet. The 49ers likely wanted the experienced, effective veteran to fill DeForest Buckner's vacant spot on the defensive front.

Well...dangit

Shelby Harris time?

They're only gonna sign guys that have some sort of connection to this staff. Is what it is. They're not spending any cash

Lets see how on pt this site is

#49ers are still talking with the #Eagles about a CB Rasul Douglas WR Dante Pettis deal. Also there are a couple teams involved.

Verrrrrrry interesting. I liked Douglas coming out of college.

Eagles fans have been banging the table for better CB's for awhile now for a reason. No thanks.

You wonder if the Douglas trade talk came from actual knowledge or a newspaper article suggesting the trade like this one:

Oh PFT also put out a article a while ago

He actually played well in 2018 but s**t the bed this past yr. I would pass on this. At least Pettis has two yrs of his rookie deal left

It's not on point. I thought we already discussed this

Well Douglas seems like a better scheme fit for us vs. PHI. Plus he'd be learning behind Sherman and a new team for a fresh start.

Tomlinson was considered a bust but now he's been a consistent starter for us. All for a 5th round pick.

Middle of the pack in space, but something like 7 mill is needed for rookies.

Being 1-2 mill on apy below what a player gets is maybe an indication of the FO placing a max value of what they feel a guy is worth. They may prefer to be overly cautious. You can call it money ball but the Pats and Ravens have done the same in the past.

You seemingly don't agree with the FO's philosophy and approach but that doesn't make them wrong, nor does it make your philosophy wrong either. There is no one surefire philosophy to building your team.

Those with less are still signing players.

I only took exception to his line about the CAP is the excuse as to why we missed out of 5 or 6 players so far. That's just a lie or someone who doesn't understand the cap at all and I know David enough to know that's not the case.

The FO always put a $ on a player and once it goes over, it's over...bridesmaid theme we've seen for years here.

This FO puts parameters on themselves like Lynch coming out days into the off season stating he was done restructuring contracts. Why put those hard limits on yourself if your goal is to always try to improve?

That's the only real issue I have with the FO. Basically, I just don't think they've put themselves up for optimal freedom in the draft and that's what FA is for.

That's doesn't mean it's the wrong approach...could still work out perfectly.

I'll wait till at least May to start criticizing the FO for the off season. I understand some of the frustration going around, and I know the FO sees and hears it too. I don't think they're done by any means.
