There's no way we would pay that much money for this guy and I'm sure the Rams would not trade us with the draft capital we would even want to give up for this one dimensional often injured 🤕 player

I feel like saying, "I'm sick and tired of this nickel and dime crap, somebody get that b***h on the phone!"

Yep, takes two to Tango.

Harris wanted to get paid. Why else switch agents (hired Drew Rosenhaus), sit here in fa this long just to resign a one year deal with Denver that pays him virtually exactly what he made last year? He actually could make a little less depending on if he hits his added in incentive bonuses.

This was also the first time he entered the open market as a starting caliber player. All the signs point to him wanting to get paid. It's a shame because I think he's a good football player. Denver got excellent value.

Was just about to post the same.

Yeah enough with defending the front office, fans cannot pick and choose their battles especially when it's inconsistent. This guy performed it better than Suh and he is less than half as much. I don't know many players that would not want to go to the Niners with their culture and their winning organization. Not to mention he would probably love to be on a line like we have.

I get wanting to give DJ Jones and Solomon Thomas a chance but then why would they go after Suh. So disappointing. We better nail this f**king draft

I absolutely believe that if the niners had even put in a modest effort then he would have signed. Like I said in a separate post, all signs of his off-season pointed to him looking to get paid really for the first time in his career.
Give me Dareus!!!

I agree with you it's just a shame the Niners couldn't put in an offer because he may have been our best replacement for Buckner. And we wouldn't have to replace him in the draft and all it would cost us is 4-5 million to lock him up

Like I said, they didn't really push for signing a veteran DT. I mean, Suh can't be the only one they like on the market right? They sure didn't pursue one right after Buckner was traded nor did they try after Suh was signed 3 days ago.

It's not defending the front office, I'm speculating why they're not pushing for a veteran DT. Sure they pursued Suh, but do you even know if thy offered him a contract? If they didn't, I'd hardly call that interested or pursuing.

Anyone got a better explanation on why they're not really pushing too hard for a veteran DT?? Besides Lynch is lazy blah blah blah!!

Doesn't look like they've really been trying to sign much of anyone. I didn't expect them to be very active on the market anyways but I atleast hoped for a couple high end rotational pieces which is what Shelby was. A high end rotational piece/solid starter.

Most of the pieces they've signed have been connected to the coaching staff including Suh. They likely were hoping that due to a connection factor and his age that they could get him on a cheap deal. The fact that they were interested in Suh at the very least shows that they believe more is needed on the interior of the dline.

Their plan is clear. They cleared cap space to save for upcoming extensions and are going all in on the draft this year. Kyle and Lynch are absolutely right. You only either get better or worse. All we can analyze is what has happened thus far and we are worse so far. For the most part I agree with their off-season plan, however seeing some guys like Harris, Vince Curry, Cameron Wake that could ease some of our biggest off-season net loss (Buckner) and add to the rotation of our dline sitting there to be signed for practically nothing and we're just signing low caliber depth players that will likely be cut.

Again, I'm not asking for the team to blow it's wad but adding some high quality depth to our dline that just lost Buck and adding some competition to a injury returning Blair would be smart imo.

Most people understand what their doing. Just like I don't think most expected us to be highly active in fa. We also didn't expect Buck to be traded. With the cap expected to go up significantly next season and some new found cap space this season due to trading Buck. I think people have a right to be critical that the front office hasn't added really anything to the team that will either improve it or improve it's depth/competition.

There were and still are some players on the market that make us a better team and won't cost hardly anything. Guys like Hyder and Benjamin that were relevant 3 years or more ago don't add much of anything imo.

I'm a big Lynch supporter but it doesn't mean I or anyone else has to agree with every move he does or in this case doesn't do.

What's really interesting is usually when a team loses a big visual player, they instantly have a plan B in mind and move on it quickly. For such a huge move as moving Buckner, you'd think they'd have some kind of plan B free agent to help take the sting off the move for the fan base (and themselves regarding talent).

I think plan B was already having a glut of talent on the DL and leveraging that to get #13 to fill other needs while creating both cap and draft flexibility.
I was joking about Bosa, but they are not trying to go into the season with a maxed out cap. They are looking to roll it over

No question...I'm talking straight personnel. I'd cry if they used 13 on a DT simply just to replace Buckner. But it wouldn't surprise me one bit.
