Christian Ponder signs contract with the 49ers

[DJ]

"The quarterback-needy Niners have found a veteran helper.

Former Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder, who hasn't thrown a pass since 2014, signed a one-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday, the team announced.

San Francisco needed another body after watching journeyman Thad Lewis go down with a season-ending ACL tear. Colin Kaepernick, meanwhile, is dealing with a "dead arm"and hasn't thrown a pass at practice in six days."

I feel bad for Lewis. Tough break.

Super Bowl Bitches!!!

Congratulations to the third string wide receivers. They will have a quarterback softly toss them reasonably accurate balls. That should help them look good, so other teams might remember them after they're cut.


Better than Krapernick hurling balls at opposing players or Thad Lewis hurling balls at the ground.

Just need to sign Jake Locker to complete the trifecta of crappy 2011 1st round QB's

Decent depth signing but nothing more than that.
