Free Agency news and signings

Nope. We're set at Rb and we already have Hunter and LaMIchael James to fill a similar role. I'm surprised somebody is willing to trade for him.

I was thinking for our KR/PR issues

 

[Dodub]

I assume nobody would want Sproles at all?

No, he's old. I'd like to take a look at Archer in the draft.

We can find that in the draft. I like DoDub's idea of Archer. Younger, cheaper, and maybe even better.

James doesn't fill a role on this team.

Unless there is a reserved spot for worthless POS.

We need a returner but I don't know that Sproles is the answer. I love the Archer idea, and I would consider Hester if he is still available.

I'm willing to give him another year. He does have value on returns, though.

Remember when he Kyle Williams'd it up in the NFCCG?



He's slow, inagile (is that a word?), he falls down if you so much as look at him, and he's shaky on punt returns. He's a worthless horrible POS of a player and a disgrace to the game of football and I can't wait until they get rid of him.

Even great players make mistakes. If he was worthless he would have been cut or traded. We will just have to wait and see.

I blame James struggle on out coaches not getting him involved or our type of offense. I would love a guy like sproles however he just might be wasted on here as we'll.

LMJ was starting to hit his stride towards the end of his rookie season. There was that key punt return against the Pats and the TD against Atlanta in the playoffs. And he played pretty well in the SB up until that fumble at the goal line when he tried to fight for extra yards. It's been all downhill from there.

Niners interested in Chris Cook

 

[numone9er]

@PFF_Jeff: Chris Cook allowed 9 TDs (T-1st among CBs) in coverage last year, with no interceptions. 140.3 QB rating allowed was 2nd highest among CBs.

I posted this in the other thread, but this is concerning. Giving him more than a small one year contract seems illogical.

I'm hoping this is the same type of signing as Dahl last year. Everyone freaked out thinking he would be the starter then they drafted Reid. Hopefully they are thinking along the same lines...

 

[CalamityX11]

Isn't this supposed to be cb deep draft class?

 

[EaseUrStorm]

Regardless of who they grab as a FA CB, I'd be shocked if we didn't draft a CB in the first two rounds. Same goes for WR. Baalke won't go crazy. He'll make remedial filler moves to address needs in the beginning of FA, and then wait for the market to evaporate before he swoops in and extracts value. He was very patient when we landed Rogers, and expect the same approach again.

That Dahl signing was terrible. I pretty much knew at the time we were going to address the safety position in the draft so that wasn't my main concern, it was the money he was given. Him restructuring this off season helped to heal that a little bit but he still was way over paid.

Lots of good 4-3 DE's left out there. Wouldn't be surprised to see Tampa, Atlanta, Carolina, or the saints pounce. With Jared Allen, Peppers, and Clemons all out there it definitely bodes well for the NFC South.

They might sign Allen to replace him.

 

[numone9er]

@JasonLaCanfora: While many older pass rushers might not do so well, talking to evaluators, sense is Ware could get $10M or more/year in Denver

How the fuck are thy affording all of these guys? They have to make some cuts...right? I hate John Elway more and more each year.

I really hope not. I don't want to scream and yell. People will think I'm crazy.
