Not sure how they can pay Kittle, Williams, Armstead and have Warner and Bosa to come.

Just make a decision one way or the other. Still good players on the market we could be chasing if we knew what sort of $$$ we had.

The cap increases, that's how. And other players also come off the books.Plus, Bosa is still 2 more seasons away until we can talk contract extension with him.

Trading Buckner was part of paying for Kittle/Armstead now.
Paying Williams probably takes money we planned for McGlinchey and we kick him to the curb for a rookie RT instead.
Hitting on LB Dre Greenlaw and trading away Kwon Alexander gives us money for Warner
When Bosa needs to get paid we will be shedding existing contracts (Ford and maybe even Armstead)
If you hit on draft picks it gives you flexibility to pay a star at the same time.

Leaking the contract offer has me worried. That just sounds like this is our best offer and he's getting more elsewhere.

He's trying to squeeze every last penny out of us.

I think hes going to squeeze a little bit more out of Lynch. Clearly no home team discount. Big man is trying to cash out for his last contract.

I have a feeling he's trying to see if someone else jumps in, like the Colts, to max out the bidding war, then will let SF match the highest offer.

I think teams will float offers but it wont be absurd. He's 33 not 26. We should be fine.

In the meantime all of the other FA o-linemen will get signed while we wait for him to decide which will make us even more desperate.
