Ward & Tartt are typically good in keeping their assignments. He's not bad, but he's also not game-changing.
Ultimately though, I don't think Tartt is going to command a huge contract to re-sign. Bring him back for another year, but look to upgrade.
It all depends on his price and what we can afford. He's a luxury at this point since he tends to miss a lot of time. Huf is the future at that position and more of a ball hawk and player who knows where to be.
Ward is staying because he's so versatile and makes plays and is more reliable. Ward costs big $$ though if you look at his averages.
I'm not sure if anyone remembers what life was like when ward and tartt were out...

He was inconsistent but he is more of a playmaker than ward and tartt combined. He had more highlights than both of them.
He also whiffed and gave up more big plays than Ward and Tartt combined. I remember him getting yelled at by Whitner because of how often he'd freelance and get out of position. That came back to bite the 49ers in many big games.
Once they started legislating the big hits out of the game, he just became a free safety that struggled in coverage, was prone to missing tackles and committed a lot of penalties.
Facts. Goldson flamed out after 1 year in Tampa. I just want to get younger and cheaper, but I forgot that Tartt didn't make much last year. For what he was paid, we got a bargain, so I'd gladly say bring him back if the deal is anywhere near that. Looking forward to adding two more corners in the draft and one or two UDFA. The latter two aren't likely to make it, but we need to rebuild that group.
