Tevin Coleman, RB

Without a doubt, this is better than signing Bell. I can't believe that was even being considered. However, this is not an excuse for all the remaning non-signings of safeties or WRs and the ridiculous amount of money offered to kwon alexander and AA this year and JM last year. Has the FO lost their minds.

This has been an awful free agent signing period for the 49ers. Reminds me distinctly of the days of Baalke.

LMAO

Dee Ford alone makes this our best FA period in years.

So just give up a late rd pick for the 0.00000000000000000000000001% chance that Mullens would be picked up and thus not on our PS? What sense does that make?

Maybe I just don't get it. I can't help but wonder why we are soooooo worried about losing our third string QB? Because of last year when we needed him?

You obviously dont get it. Its not about being so worried about losing him. Its about losing him without getting a draft pick back for him.

To me that sounds like getting a draft pick for a punter. I'm not sure what you think we could get for him. A 7th rounder? He didn't win the last 5 games of the season so I'm thinking he doesn't warrant any draft picks.

Anywhere from 5th to 7th. As I recall Trent Brown was a 7th rd pick. You would be mistaken if you think that late rd picks never amount to anything or that Mullens wouldnt warrant any pick at all.

Lynch/Shanahan probably mentioned McKinnon, Breida, and perhaps Mostert in their gameplan when they were courting Coleman. Lynch/Shanahan may decide to cut or trade McKinnon soon, but it still makes me wonder why Coleman chose to be part of a committee which already has three capable RB's. Is he content with 10-12 touches a game max while he enters his prime? Perhaps Coleman really wanted to reunite with Shanahan, but there are/were other landing spots for him that would have translated into more touches per game. Hmmm...

He's not going to pass a 3rd round pick as a 6th or 7th that he was. He didn't show anything more than what CJ is capable of. Besides Kittles production will go down if CJ is traded. Gotta keep them Iowa boys together.

If we could get a pick for him then yeah of course. If a team comes a knocking then yeah. But to cut CJ and keep Mullens would be very uncomfortable to do. Keep CJ, put Mullens on the PS which he will clear waivers, and move on to the playoffs with Jimmy and our freaking awesome defense that sucked last year.

Wow. Lots of weapons in the backfield and Coleman should be a great addition & give a 1-2 punch with Jett. Breida will still get plenty of time.

Another good pickup!

I dont see how anyone cant think this is a great signing for only 10M for 2 years.

This might have been the biggest steal in FA, no homer no joke

compared to the ridiculous contracts going around without a doubt it is.

ok, its obvious Shanahan has no faith in our RBs. Already tried to pursue LeVeon Bell.

May the best man win. Coleman is probably RB1

Why not? Breida had one of the highest YPC in the league last year. And he's high on McKinnon.

Very solid all around RB. I like this move

Mullens will not clear waivers, after what teams saw last year someone will pick him up off waivers.

I approve of this signing. Good job Lynch.

The one that stands out to me is the corner route he ran out of the freaken backfield against the Seahawks for a TD.
