we can't worry about what they do, we can only strengthen our own team. for the small picture - when we play them - the 49ers have to play well anyway. no matter who they have, we have to have a good team game anyway.

in the big picture, draft well and we'll be fine.

That would suck if they signed him. We can draft his clone in the Honey Badger this up coming draft if we want to though.

Meh, he is turning 36 in June.

He is still a beast defending the slot though.

Ya, but at that age in the NFL they can and often go from being a beast one year to a nobody the next.

Packers add a new tight end | ProFootballTalk

Mulligan reportedly picked the Packers over the 49ers, who are trying to replace the versatile Delanie Walker.

Seahawks signed Brett Swain. I just wish he'd stick on their roster so the 49ers couldn't pick him back up again.

Seahawks working out 4 possible backup QBs. I'm expecting Pete Carroll to chose between Matt Leinart and Brady Quinn. Tie-breaker to ML

Dang.

I didn't know leinart was with raiders last year, i thought he was already out of the league.

Geoff Hobson:

Hearing #Bengals mulled trade for Raiders LB Rolando McClain before he got cut, but there doesn't appear to be interest as of now

Of course THEY mulled it over.

Speaking of the Raiders, they signed Mike Jenkins from Dallas.

Damnit.. I am actually surprised that we did not look into him at all. Young-ish, talented, possible 7-10 yrs left in the league

Yes it is.

Passing rating vs Jenkins the last 3 seasons: 108.4

PFF rated Jenkins 94th out of 113 CBs in '12.

I'm surprised the Raiders signed him but then I'm not, I think their GM is way in over his head.
