Who do you guys think we need to resign and who will we lose?

I would love to see us work a long term deal with Goldson and RJF, Would be nice to keep Larry Grant but I think he will test the waters and look for a higher paying starting gig.

That's crazy a link to a link I'm already in. I'm so confused

 

[EKmane]

Gooden

Grant (depending on $)

Francios

Williams (depending on draft)

Goldson (depending on draft strategy)

Sopoaga & RJF are at the top of my list for those guys. Neither one is looking at a huge pay day.

Goldson is as good as gone IMO. I don't want Walker back for what he's worth on the FA market. Ginn? Not sure. He's regressed since last year. Here are some of the players I think could be gone:

Alex, Goldson, Whitner, Walker, Manningham, Akers, Haralson

It would be tough losing both starting safeties, but both are pretty expensive.

Manningham isn't due much is he?

Manningham isn't due much is he?

With salary & roster / workout bounuses, his salary should be about 4 million next season. That's pretty steep for a player of his caliber. I think he's gone.

Manningham isn't due much is he?

He is a 4.95 hit to the cap - very reasonable for what he brings to the table. He's a nice compliment to Crabtree

I'd be willing to entertain the possibility of signing Osi Umenyiora in the offseason. He's be the perfect situational pass-rusher, and it would weaken the Giants.

Not sure how much he's worth at ths point.

1 million of that is signing bounus, so I think the Niners take that hit regardless of whether he's on the team or not.

You think he's worth a 5 million dollar cap hit? I think that's a little steep for a player of his caliber.

Correct on the $1m. As for his value, yeah, all things considered I think $5m is okay. That said, I have no argument with your position and you could very well be correct. From a personal perspective I do like the way he plays; he is a good WR.

Jared Cook and Dustin Keller would be my targets this offseason to replace Walker. My plan B would be the NFL draft.

Walker coming out of college was a WR. We did a very good job in developing him to be a weapon for us as a#2 TE. He's very unreliable but a threat nonetheless. Because of the success we have had with him, I wouldn't mind if Baalke would take that same approach this year by drafting a college WR and then transition/develop him to be a TE. One prospect I have in mind to fulfill this task would be V-Tech's Marcus Davis. I have a feeling he would do well in that role.

I think in the College/NFL draft thread Pozz had announced that Arkansas's TE, Chris Gragg, was invited to the Senior Bowl. If so I will be keeping a very close eye on him.

 

[maniax]

After Alex leaves, the $8 to $9 million cap hit we'll save means we can probably bring back anybody we want to: Goldson, Sop, Manningham should be back.

But with all those draft picks I think it's time to get some younger guys as backups. Ginn, Walker, Gooden, Leonard Davis etc. could all be replaced by rookies so at least you have some upside there.

I can't see both Goldson and Whitner being gone. One or the other I could see though.

Ginn is gone

Alex is gone

Haralson is gone

Akers will depend on if he can regain his 2011 form but I'm expecting the team to use one of it's many late draft picks on a kicker to bring in competition

Walker will depend on the price but I think the team would like him back

Manningham I expect back since I believe the offseason focus is going to work on evolving our passing attack with CK at the helm so I see him getting used more next season. I think we'll see Crabtree and Mario as starters, Jenkins at 3, and Moss and Williams working their way into the rotation.

Akers is gone next season. The only reason he's still around is because it's so hard to find a kicker from off the streets at midseason that's better than what he's doing. At least with him we can hang onto last season and this season's 63 yarder.

I hoping we use one of those late picks on Dustin Hopkins, Senior, Fla St.

i wouldn't mind seeing us draft a couple safeties to replace goldson and whitner. mcdonald and reid look like good fits for our d. we'd save a ton in cap space between those two and smith getting cut.
