step 1. lowball and piss off BA

step 4. upper management can now enjoy the excuse created for poor offense performance for the first few weeks of 2024 season!
It goes both ways though, yes the 49ers low ball their players when it's time for extensions, they did with Kittle, Warner, Deebo, & Bosa, but also the players need to have some sense of urgency to get a deal done, and not act petty, I'm all for the players & their agents getting them every dollar they deserve, but when it comes time for the preseason, BA needs to be signed/extended, idk what happened with Bosa & Deebo, other than Deebo wanted a trade at first, then Trent got him to stay since they're tight, so I'm hoping Deebo does the same with BA, since those two seem tight as well. The Bosa thing confused me, idk if they didn't want to pay him the $34M a yr, or give him all that GTD money, or what it was, plus never believe everything you read from the so called experts or insiders, they're either hearing right or wrong stuff, or being given false info, like how every media member nationally said it was Mac Jones to 49ers at #3 as a LOCK.
