\"We're the San Francisco 49ers, we can do whatever we want.\"
Once upon a time, the 49ers were waiting until the league year began before they released—or possibly traded—Brandon Aiyuk. We live in a different world now, one where Aiyuk, without any guaranteed money left on his contract, remains on the 49ers with no end in sight. As you might guess, many are wondering what the […]
49ers to host Texas A&M WR KC Concepcion on pre-draft visit “For his career, 1,232 of Concepcion’s receiving yards have come after the catch, according to Pro Football Focus. He also contributed on special teams, returning 30 punts for 501 yards and two touchdowns.” Why 49ers delaying Brandon Aiyuk’s departure is about business, not breakup revenge […]
The San Francisco 49ers had quite an impressive season last year, finding a way to 13 wins despite dealing with a number of injuries once again. Stars like Fred Warner, Nick Bosa, George Kittle, and others dealt with long-term injuries, forcing a number of first and second-year players to step up into bigger roles. But […]
The start of free agency has been extremely productive for the San Francisco 49ers. The wide receiver group needed a makeover, and adding Mike Evans and Christian Kirk helps with that issue. Trading for defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa gives the 49ers a true pass-rushing threat at defensive tackle. You can expect the 49ers to add […]
The San Francisco 49ers have been active thus far in free agency, looking to shore up some of their needs. So far, they’ve made additions at wide receiver, offensive tackle, defensive line, linebacker, cornerback, and punter, adding potential starters at most positions. At wide receiver, the 49ers brought in Mike Evans and Christian Kirk, who […]
Once the Dallas Cowboys invested in Quinnen Williams and Kenny Clark, Osa Odighizuwa became expendable in their eyes. Ahead of the San Francisco 49ers trading for a star interior pass rusher, there were reports of teams monitoring Odighizuwa for a trade. On Wednesday, ESPN went through each team’s free agency, and in the Cowboys section, […]
As you read through mock drafts for the San Francisco 49ers, especially with Trent Williams’ contract status in limbo, left tackle or a selection of offensive line is becoming more and more popular. Then, you realize the Niners’ investments up front have been few and far between in the NFL Draft under the current regime. […]
The San Francisco 49ers made it a priority to address wide receiver and an interior pass rusher in free agency. History would suggest that one of the offensive line signings could compete with a rookie to start. We’re also waiting to see what the 49ers do with Trent Williams. Because of the uncertainty, offensive tackle […]
49ers pledged to study injury woes. Then they signed several oft-sidelined free agents (Paywall)“From a financial perspective, they are each low-risk moves. But the collective risk is significant. It appears all four players could have important roles. And they have joined a roster loaded with key players who are bad bets to play 17 games […]
Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht spoke to the media on Wednesday, and the topic of Mike Evans came up. The San Francisco 49ers were fortunate to sign Mike Evans to the deal that they did, considering the caliber of player they are getting. When asked about losing Evans, Licht said, “That one’s really […]
It has been nine days since the legal tampering period began in the NFL, and the San Francisco 49ers have taken full advantage of adding to their roster with offensive and defensive help. Mike Evans, Christian Kirk, Vederian Lowe, and Brett Toth have been the new faces in the wide receiver room and offensive line […]
Former San Francisco 49ers All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman shared his thoughts on his podcast about the safety position. Sherman said, “Safety first. You got to find a safety, a veteran safety who’s played good football.” There are plenty of veteran safeties available, but how many would be substantial upgrades to what the 49ers have on […]
Free agency continues and we’re all hoping something gets worked out with Trent Williams sooner than later. There’s plenty to keep us all occupied as 49ers fans, but let’s not forget the first round of the NCAA Tournament starts tomorrow! While I remain a diehard 49ers fan, my college basketball fandom has sort of gone […]
The San Francisco 49ers played a playoff game against the Super Bowl champions without a player who is arguably the most critical to their offensive success. George Kittle tore his Achilles tendon the week prior against the Philadelphia Eagles. Kittle made an appearance on an episode of the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast on Tuesday, […]
The 49ers have, overall, done an impressive job of plugging gaps in their roster during free agency, but there are still several issues that remain for San Francisco this offseason. And there is no problem more pressing than the issue of Trent Williams’ contract. It was reported early this offseason that the 49ers were open […]
Raiders sign former 49ers OL Spencer Burford“Across four NFL seasons, Burford has appeared in 56 games with 38 starts.” The reality for the 49ers at Pick No. 27 (paywall)“WR: If Concepcion is still there, take him. I’m not certain he’s a definite, first-round-worthy player, but he’s undeniably a special talent with the ball in his […]
NFL Insider Aaron Wilson reported that former San Francisco 49ers free agent offensive lineman signed a one-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders. Burford, who started 38 games at both guard spots since 2022, gets a fresh start in the AFC West with the Raiders. The Niners elected to go a different route than they […]
The San Francisco 49ers made one of the early splashes in free agency, signing Mike Evans to a cleverly-structured three-year deal to make him the team’s No. 1 wide receiver in 2026. With the move, the 49ers addressed one of their biggest holes, adding a proven veteran at the position at a very reasonable price. […]
The San Francisco 49ers have been busy during free agency. Mike Evans, Christian Kirk, and Osa Odighizuwa have joined the team as immediate contributors. The 49ers also added secondary and offensive line depth ahead of the NFL Draft. But which signing was deemed “under the radar” by Pro Football Focus? Dalton Wasserman of PFF chose […]
The San Francisco 49ers will travel to Melbourne, Australia, to open the regular season and face the Los Angeles Rams. The NFL has historically had the first game of the season on Thursday night. That game, reserved for the Super Bowl champions, will take place on Wednesday night on NBC, according to Joe Flint of […]
A splash trade on Tuesday morning sent Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos. Miami sent a fourth, while Denver sent their first-round pick, as well as the 94th and 130th overall picks in the draft. Five years ago, the San Francisco 49ers made a franchise-altering trade in March, too. Fast forward […]
We’re a week and a day into free agency, and several of the San Francisco 49ers’ unrestricted free agents remain unsigned. Is it all that surprising? A couple of the offensive linemen took visits within the past couple of days. The Detroit Lions hosted Ben Bartch, who had yet another season where he was banged […]
On Monday, we asked which move in free agency so far by the San Francisco 49ers was the worst to date. Answers varied. Today, we’re expecting more of the same, but are turning around and asking the opposite. There will always be different points of view. For example, ESPN looked at which teams improved the […]
