Ford begins the season on either PUP or Short Term IR if the NFL keeps the 2020 rule around permanently.

I have to see the teams UDFAs, but for now I'm down to either 4 RBs & 6 WRs or 5 RBs & 5 WRs, with Elijah Mitchell on the 53, especially if he performs well, and Kyle doesn't want to lose him, or they keep a 6th WR.

With these 54 players I have, they account for $170,662,361, while the 49ers would have $14,442,749 in dead money, they're practice squad will cost at the maximum $3.168M, for a total of $188,319,004, leaving the team $7,827,018 under their adjusted cap, which is $196,146,022

My key battles would be as follows.

3rd QB between Nate Sudfeld & Josh Rosen, both make $850K, but cutting Sudfeld leaves $252K in dead money, which is the amount he'd make on the practice squad, if he chose to sign with the 49ers practice squad, that's if Rosen beats out Sudfeld.

As I said above, I'm torn on RB Elijah Mitchell or WR Mohamed Sanu Sr. Mitchell would leave $45,894 in dead money for 2021, $137,682 in 2022, & Sanu would leave $25K in dead money in 2021. The savings between Mitchell & Sanu is a $169,106 savings, which would increase the teams cap room to $7,996,124.

The other camp battles will likely be along the OL, LB, and DB.

The 49ers should, and will extend Fred Warner this offseason, which should take away around $3M if he's given a $15M signing bonus, which would leave the team with between $4,167,018 to $4,996,124, they do have options for gaining more cap room, via restructures, they can save $4.528M by restructuring Armstead's deal, they can save up to $5.86M by restructuring Ward's deal, but that would virtually guarantee Ward is a 49ers in 2022.

Lastly they could either extend or restructure Laken Tomlinson's contract, they'd save up to $2.808M, if they just restructured his contract, they'd have a higher dead money for him in 2022 than his already $1,005,530, if the redo was for 4 more voidable years, they'd be left with a total of $2.808M more, something the 49ers simply shouldn't think about doing.

More on Ward, if they redid his deal, that would add on up to $5.86M to Ward's dead money in 2023, which is $2M, as his deal has a voidable year in it. They would actually save money in 2022 if they did cut Ward, it would either be $7.5M Pre June 1 or just $1.64M if they redid his deal.

As for Armstead, they would either save $3.5M in 2022 with a Pre June 1 cut, or they'd lose $1.028M if they redid his deal this year. Now I don't actually see the 49ers releasing Armstead, so this would be the most sensible one to me.

And yes we can't forget Jimmy Garoppolo, but there is no way he'll take a pay cut, nor should the 49ers redo his deal, if they did, they'd save max $18.42M, but in 2022 they would save $25.6M by cutting or trading him, or it would end up being just $8.58M, so I don't see that happening.

Last thing, I'm intrigued by keeping Mitchell over Sanu, especially if he plays very well in the offseason, so I would consider keeping 5 RBs & 5 WRs, and using Mitchell in the slot, like Curtis Samuel esque.

Pretty damn good, AB. You almost need to do one for yourself and one you think the team will do.

Yeah I might do what I would do, and the what I think John & Kyle will.

What have you got for 22/23 so far?

2022/2023 wise, I think the following players are locks to make the final 53, baring injuries.

1. QB 5 Trey Lance(2024)
2. QB 7 Nate Sudfeld(2022)
3. RB 25 Elijah Mitchell(2024)
4. RB 28 Trey Sermon(2024)
5. FB 44 Kyle Juszczyk(2025)
6. WR 19 Deebo Samuel(2022)
7. WR 11 Brandon Aiyuk(2023)
8. WR 15 Jauan Jennings(2022) - Currently a ERFA who has been tendered
9. TE 85 George Kittle(2025)
10. TE 89 Charlie Woerner(2023)
11. C 50 Alex Mack(2023)
12. LG 68 Colton McKivitz(2022)
13. RG 65 Aaron Banks(2024)
14. RG 60 Daniel Brunskill(RFA) - He'll either get tendered at ROFR tender or re-signed to a 1 or 2yr deal.
15. LT 71 Trent Williams(2026)
16. LT 76 Jaylon Moore(2024)
17. RT 69 Mike McGlinchey(2022)
18. DE 97 Nick Bosa(2022)
19. DT 91 Arik Armstead(2024)
20. DT 99 Javon Kinlaw(2023)
21. DT 90 Kevin Givens(2022)
22. WLB 57 Dre Greenlaw(2022)
23. MLB 54 Fred Warner(2026)
24. SLB 51 Azeez Al-Shaair(RFA) - Like with Brunskill he'll get tendered if no multi-year deal is reached, likely the 2nd rd tender
25. CB 4 Emmanuel Moseley(2022)
26. CB 20 Ambry Thomas(2024)
27. CB 38 Deommodore Lenoir(2024)
28. FS 1 Jimmie Ward(2022)
29. SS 29 Talanoa Hufanga(2024)
30. PK 9 Robbie Gould(2022)
31. P 18 Mitch Wishnowsky(2022)
32. LS 46 Taybor Pepper(2022)

So, 32 players I have making it as of now, the guys below are close locks, but they could upgrade.

1. RB 23 JaMycal Hasty(2022)
2. DE 56 Samson Ebukam(2022)
3. DE 92 Charles Omenihu(2022)
4. SLB 45 Demetrus Flannigan-Fowles(2022)
5. FS 33 Tarvarius Moore(2022)

50/50:

1. C 64 Jake Brendel(2022)
2. DT 96 Maurice Hurst(2022)

Long shots IMO:

1. FB 40 Josh Hokit(2022)
2. WR 14 Austin Mack(2022)
3. WR 83 Connor Wedington(2022)
4. WR -- KeeSean Johnson(2022)
5. TE 88 Jordan Matthews(2022)
6. TE 84 Tanner Hudson(2022)
7. RG -- Keaton Sutherland(2022)
8. RT 67 Justin Skule(2022)
9. RT 77 Alfredo Gutierrez(2022)
10. DE 58 Alex Barrett(2022)
11. NT 78 Chris Slayton(2022)
12. WLB 59 Curtis Robinson(2022)
13. CB -- Ka'dar Hollman(2022)

I thought Flan was extended.

No McKivitz? He played so good when he was out there, especially in Trent's spot, Skule can go, I'd rather keep 10 OL if we can, especially if Mack retires, I love Dohnovan West.

Not sure they go 5 WRs, but it's possible.

No way they're gonna cut Sermon, Hasty isn't worth the roster spot IMO.

Where's Turay? He got $1M fully GTD on a 1yr $1.7M deal.

First crack at it.

No McKivitz? He played so good when he was out there, especially in Trent's spot, Skule can go, I'd rather keep 10 OL if we can, especially if Mack retires, I love Dohnovan West.

Not sure they go 5 WRs, but it's possible.

No way they're gonna cut Sermon, Hasty isn't worth the roster spot IMO.

Where's Turay? He got $1M fully GTD on a 1yr $1.7M deal.

- I don't think McKivitz makes it
- You're right on West. Surprised he wasn't drafted. Skule would be odd man out in that case. Adam Peters said, Zakelj will be tried at Center.
- Sermon will be gone. Kyle has a real problem with him
- You're right on Turray. Who would he replace, Hurst, Willis? Do they drop Ebukam?

No love for Omenihu?

Aquiessed to a couple of good points by AB81, but really went with my gut feeling after Draft and Free Agent pick ups.

QB (2) Lance, Sudfeld
Easily understood.

RB/FB (6) Mitchell, Juszczk, Davis-Price, Wilson, Hasty, Sermon
Jumped it up to 6 RBs with the understanding that we will lead the league in rushing attempts. I believe we will focus on more inside zone with Trey's ability to make it 11 on 11. That's why I have Sermon making it. My prediction is Davis-Price becomes lead back by mid season.

WR (5) Deebo, Aiyuk, Jennings, Ray-Ray, Gray
5 is all we need with the emphasis on running.

TE (3) Kittle, Dwelley, Woerner
Easily understood. Should Kyle get a boner on a better receiving TE available, this is the 3.

OL (9) Williams, McGlinchey, Mack, Moore, Banks, Burford, Brunskill, Zakelj, West
I think Mack comes back with a bigger contract. This frees up Brunskill to become swing tackle. Bye bye McKivitz. Adam Peters said Zakelj will get reps at center. May be future center. Moore wins starting RG and Banks wins LG.

DL (10) Bosa, Kinlaw, Armstead, Jackson, Turray, Givens, Hurst, Ridegeway, Willis, Hyder
No need to keep Ebukam's Contract. Both Jackson and Turray will be better pass rushers with Willis & Hyder to be edge setters on base downs until Jackson is ready.

LB (5) Warner, Greenlaw, Al-Shaair, Flannigan-Fowls, Burks
Easy Peasy

CB (5) C.Ward, Mosley, Thomas, Womack, Verrett
With Verrett back on board and assuming he is healthy because I know he's motivated like no other, 49ers place Lenoir and Castro Fields on PS after passing through waivers, no problem.

S (5) J.Ward, Moore, Odum, Hufanga, D.Johnson (CB/S)
Never thought I'd say this. No way they get rid of D.Johnson after coming up big as the Best Swiss Army Knife of last season. Especially in the playoffs.

ST (3) Wishnowsky, Gould, Pepper
Wish they had drafted Matt Araiza of SDSU and cut Wish. Araiza has an out standing Kick Off leg and is a booming punter.

I think I'm starting to lean towards 5 WRs too, I know Kyle loves to have 6, but with guys like Marcus Johnson & Malik Turner being vested vets, you don't need to have them clear waivers.

I still think McKivitz makes it, and I think Verrett begins on either PUP or IR, I have both Castro-Fields, & Lenoir making it, I don't think either passes waivers TBH, but that's my 2 cents.

I also wish we took Araiza, but I like our draft.
