The video from Lombardi said something about the 49ers decision coming during the combine. Makes it sound like the 49ers wanted to get a look at the college kickers, before deciding to pursue Gould or not. I'm thinking they told him no, and it's more of a team decision than Gould wanting out.

He played hard ball last time, and even then he wanted to stay closer to home and his family. Its time we move to a younger kicker. We enjoyed the streak of playoff makes, but a younger kicker will kick the ball deeper without chances of a runback, and probably won't get scratched during warmups like Robby has done lately.
Yep. Pretty much. Clutch on FG attempts. Horrible kickoff guy. Outside of Mexico City, where the air pressure helped sail the ball into the stands, Robbie could only muster long balls to the 10 which meant the opposing team always had a chance for a good return. Will miss him though…

He was team mvp in the early shanny years winning games with 4 5 6 field goals. Had to be perfect with sir lord game manager game plans, and he was. Great performances. Gonna miss robbie. Tip of the hat. He better be signing for good good money or this will be a mystery move.

S strategically yes it could be. But I think now that we have Brock hopefully we will be able to score more touchdowns and need field goals less. So hopefully we can get by with just a good kicker. If we were still strapped on to the five-field-goals beat-2- touchdowns mentality then losing Robbie would be a real problem

There are. And they've won Superbowls already, unlike us.

We will be competing with DAL in the draft for those kickers we've been eyeballing
