If he is not playing week 1 or with a limited snap count, then that is a failure by the front office for not getting this done in a timely manner. He needs to be ready to go for that game, so get it done!

Why is that on the FO?? If Bosa is off in crazy town — why would the Niners meet him there?

Youre talking about week 1 2023 problems when this is a multiple year contract. They are not the same.

He's not in crazy town and if reports that they are $4 million apart then it's a HUGE fail by the FO. Bosa has all the leverage in this situation, and if the team even loses him for 1 week and it costs a game, they will have shot themselves in BOTH feet.

Yeah, PER YEAR! What, from $32m per year to $36? That's $20m over the anticipated 5 year contract, over what's already a record contract. We can't do that.

Bosa does Not have the leverage. He's on his 5th year option guaranteed now, and two additional years franchised would Not cost us more than his new contract will. Plus, that way we have injury protection year to year, and Bosa doesn't, and we can still work on a long term deal.

Come on, we're glad to make him the highest paid non quarterback Ever. Take Yes for an answer, Nick. Your royalties will be much larger when you are a multi time Super Bowl Champion.

Well what if that $4M is the difference in being the highest paid non QB ever, or not?

I think the team long ago acknowledged that expectation, so I think no.

They are probally low-balling him if they are $4 Million apart. Because even if Bosa is asking for $35 Million it means they are offering him $31 which is a low-ball offer imo because it doesn't involve him being the highest paid non QB which is what everyone knew they would have to pay. He's probally asking for 34 and Niners are offering like 30. He's currently the best defensive player in the league who is 25 and just entering his prime and should be paid like the best defensive player in the league.

I mean just pay him. People want the best defensive player in football…that s**t is expensive.

Give him a 10% stake in the 49ers as an alternative to giving him an all time high contract.

Only if you report it....

Now what I said at all. I said there's a close-to-$4M gap between the top of the edge-rusher market, and what the highest paid defensive player makes. It was analysis, not a report.

Gives Bosa one week to get up to speed, which probably won't be a problem for him the way he keeps in shape. As others have said, most likely he'll be on a pitch count to make sure he eases back into things.

On top of a cake walk no camp you shouldn't need to warm up for the season especially when making over $30m a year (soon). He's not porcelain. Throw his ass out there and get sacks.
