What the ****?

TEAMS STILL NEED CAP SPACE!!!

Teams can’t be against the cap AND SIGN THEIR DRAFT CHOICES.

And another ****ing “Over The Cap” article doesn’t prove shit.

Stop it.

You’re cutting Sorensen to fit Reid, which I wouldn’t mind

Eric Reid 26 - Daniel Sorenson 28

Grade 81.4 - 40.7

Above Average. - Poor

Huge upgrade it would be.

Agreed. I’d try and see if Dorsey would take Sorensen

Vaccaro has been sooooo inconsistent.

3 season grades above 80 AND two AWFUL sub 40 years.

Reid played some LBer last year too. Weird.

Think Vaccaro played best in a scheme similar to suttons.

I wish we would get Reid. He said he would not protest anything so Clark would be happy.

NFL | Eric Reid talking with teams
Thu, 22 Mar 2018 13:38:28 -0700

Free-agent S Eric Reid (49ers) said his agent has been in contact with several teams. Reid said that the San Francisco 49ers have not offered him a contract.

He would be a great addition.

That would be a great addition by subtraction too.

Give me Wright, Reid & Watson & I’ll be happy going into the draft.

Does anyone have Tre Boston's numbers compared to Reid and Sorenson?

Also, Reid retweeted a Chiefs fans asking him to come to KC and win a ring, so IF he does have teams to choose from and we are one of them, I'd like to think we are high up on his list.

Reid does not fit the profile, Hunt will not allow after M Peters was rumored to be let go partially due to kneeling during anthem....Still wish we woula grabbed HB. Vaccaro is a better than what we have currently.

We had a top 10 pick last year. This year our top pick is a second rounder.

I understand that but if that's the case, there would be absolutely no reason for a League Mandated Rookie Salary Cap within the actual salary cap.

The rookie pool is meant to limit rookie salaries.

They're not cutting the bottom 7 players, freeing up cap space, then signing their draft classes.

They need designated cap space to sign their draftees before the bottom salaries drop below 51.

Even if you have to have the full cap space to sign a rookie contract before the bottom player drops off, you don't sign all the rookie contracts at once. You'd only need the space to fit one contract at a time.

Wait, do you think we have to set aside the all rookie money before the draft? Because that's definitely not how it works. If it was, wouldn't we have had to cut Maclin before the draft last year?

Wonder if Reid will wait till after the draft. Does whoever gets his little brother have a leg up? We saw that not pan out with the Fullers, but would be a damn blessing to get the younger Reid and have him mentored by Berry and the older.

I dont get the infatuation with reid. He is okay. We could probably get a better safety more suited to our defense in the third round of the draft this year though.
