Myers and Birk have both resigned with their teams. I am not sure about McClure
Whoops! My bad. Looks like I don't have a source, huh...
Sorry, I know I said to quit talking about that. -
Chris Myers, Matt Birk, Todd McClure, etc... are better players to look at.
-
That said, I think Jeff isn't as a good of a fit with them as a rookie center being drafted or a younger FA on the market.
-
Let's talk about Saturday and his fit with the Packers instead of Andy's sources, now, okay? I think that issue has been addressed as far as is necessary.
-
Is this the same league source who told you the Colts were getting ready to release Freeney about a week ago like it was going to happen shortly there after and still hasn't happened, in fact stories have come out since then saying the Colts are trying to find a way to keep Freeney and didn't tell you anything about Reggie Wayne coming back?
I could see Jeff going to the Packers but still I have wonder is your source Incarcerated Bob because they seem to have about the same batting average?
Oh, come on, now. Lots of LaCanfora's and Florio's sources have been wrong too. Just because a source isn't right doesn't mean that the listener should get blasted!
At least Andy gave us something to talk about, right?!?!
-
Favre watch for 100% certainty. People were like, "Come on, Favre, pick and be done with it so we can move on."
With Peyton, it's "Oooh, I wonder where he'll go?!?!? I'll cheer for them... Gooooo whoever signs him! Go! Go! Go! And sign free agents, too. I hope he wins the Super Bowl and comes to my team. Go!"

Try not to be mean, first time I've done one of this and Im 13
Good job on your first time! Very nicely done. And don't worry about any holes that anyone might bring up, everyone of us has them somewhere. They're only trying to help you out! Grigson and the other GM's around the league have a whole staff chock full of guys who do just the same thing you're doing so that they can get eveyone's idea and then create their own. We, on the other hand, are all alone...
Very nice job. I was impressed. You can view my draft picks, free agent signings, and final roster at these places.

Free Agency:
Final Roster: (Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page for the final roster.)

Nope; reports are that the Lloyd signing is almost completed.
Yes, they signed him a little less than an hour ago. Thanks for the update, though! I appreciate it.
-
Good list. I'd like to see us draft a corner.
Guard, Receiver, and Quarterback are good free agent targets, in my opinion.
-
This probably signals that they won't get Lloyd.
-
Understand now, thanks , have good weekend
And you as well! Always good to see you around the forum.

Original 49;r story of non pursuit , thats a March 7th 49'r story, but just this Tues they worked , liked what they saw, and gave a him a physical
Yes, I realize that the link I posted is an old story, bayone, I posted it to help out another member who wasn't sure if the 49ers had always wanted Manning or if they had originally just wanted Alex Smith.
-
Interesting stuff.
I am actually not sure where Peyton goes. Usually I have this gut feeling on these things. I honestly can see a great argument for all 3 teams in the mix.
My mother thinks he goes to TN and will feel the most comfortable there, regardless of the Colts in the same division. He already has fans in TN and loves the area.
I guess we'll see.
'Til next week, then, guys. We'll just have to wonder and speculate until then, I guess. Good night, all.
-
I totally agree with your assessment of Blake being just below Konz. They both have a mean streak, and I like that in my line 'manager.'
It makes a difference. Even Saturday could be nasty on the field sometimes...
-
Well that is something I did not know. Hmmm.......
No Alex Smith will not become Manning or a Rodgers who they passed over for him IMO. But, Harbaugh was really into having Smith at QB.
If they don't get Manning then here is another QB ego to mend........
Yes. But at least they offered him a deal in the beginning and weren't chasing Manning from the start. That should help some.

I am actually suprised Harbaugh is considering dumping Smith when he wanted him so much to be the QB. Of course it's Peyton but still it suprises me a bit.
Smith has not had stabiltiy at coach and has been improving. He was not great vs. the Giants D but a lot of QBs were not either and Smith did not have a ton of WR help. Ask Rodgers how easy it is to play vs. the Giants d line at times.......
Special teams was the main reason SF fell short.
As for next year chad knows about "the patterns".
If the patterns hold true again then the NFC East has the next SB winner in it. Every SB winning team since 2006 has played the NFC East. And the AFC West is a jinx.I agree on Smith, I think he could be good. Actually, I will just lay a 'blanket like' on mostly your whole post. I have heard that Smith wants more money than the 49ers are willing to give him at this point.

I need to read those blogs this afternoon. I know he is a tough center. I am just wondering why we cannot get production out of the two award winners already on the roster and use that pick somewhere else. If they are not in the plans I am all in on Blake.
I agree that we should get something out of them. If we can, Blake's pick could be used profitably elsewhere. If not, he seems to be a sure thing, most likely the second best center in the draft behind Konz from Wisconsin.

Signing bonus $7 paid upon signing is guaranteed.
First year salary $13 is also considered guaranteed.
Without the details of the contract in front of me, I can only guess that the second year salary is also guaranteed $12.5
Totals $32.5
Another explanation is that the source you cited has reported it incorrectly.
It looks like i made an error.
His 2012 base salary is fully guaranteed, which coupled with his 2011 base salary and his signing bonus =32.5.
So it would be about 17 million to get rid of him. so yeah they are stuck with him.
Thanks, guys. And, firejimcaldwell, you're still tied for smartest cap man on the forum...
As Peyton said, "You've still got the best arm in the neighborhood, Bobby!" -
Good coaching and a year behind Reitz and Constanzo (Spell check) should help the back side. Again I have to say a full training camp and rigorous off season workouts will make a huge difference. Center and the right side are a huge worry for me.
In my Heart/Mind mock draft I have us taking the Baylor Center, Phillip Blake. That would solve our center problems, and we could reshuffle the others and get a decent line out of it. Not a perfect line, but decent nonetheless.
-
I just read here that there is 32.5 million guaranteed. Could you help me out with this as well, firejimcaldwell (or UndecidedFrog)? I know that there are different types of guarantees, so...

http://washington.cb...or-andrew-luck/
This quote in the article "Speaking of which, Morgan is looking forward to working with Robert Griffin III or, yes, Andrew Luck. It is widely assumed RGIII will be coming to D.C. though a few quiet rumblings have begun that the Colts may pull a fast one and draft the Baylor product."
I've feared this all along because everyone is saying they're taking Luck. I really hope they don't do this. In my opinion, this will be a huge mistake. I hope after the pro days for Griffin and Luck, they commit to Luck and do not draw this out. I'll be very disappointed... as will many Colts fans I fear. I know there are some that want RGIII but it seems most want Luck. I guess we'll be left pondering this until draft day. I for one don't want the drama.
Are the rumblings coming from Griffin?
Just kidding. -
I think Peyton is better off in the AFC(Denver). In the AFC the main and maybe only threat is Brady. With the 49ers,probably a cinch to win division BUT still will have to win shootouts in playoffs vs Rogers,Breese,up and coming qb's like Stafford & Ryan and don't forget baby bro Eli.Even with the niners good D & easier division the post season is tougher in the NFC,at least till Luck takes over the AFC.
True, the postseason is tougher, but can Denver sucessfully get Peyton to the playoffs and in a good spot as much as the 49ers? You raise a good point, though, as the 49ers had the path cleared of Rodgers, Ryan and Stafford. They did play well against Brees and Eli, but Alex Smith was on fire those games.
-
He has a large contract but they paid him very little guaranteed/signing bonus dollars based on his history of being a convicted felon and the fear or threat of him doing something else to find himself in blaze orange again.
They would take on a 5.6 cap hit to get rid of him at this point in time, or if they wanted to treat him as a 6/1 cut, it would be a 1.4 hit this year and a 4.2 hit next year.
They aren't married to Vick from a monetary stand point.
Thanks! That's why guys like you and UndecidedFrog are invaluable here. I understand just enough to get by, and that's it.
Sorry, I know I said to quit talking about that.
Saturday Drawing Interest From Packers

Is Koppen re-signed by the Patriots yet? I don't think he is, but I'm not sure for a 100%. If not, and if he is healthy, he might be a good fit since the Patriots could roll with Connolly.
