Why would the 49ers go public with their discussions and his demands? Seems like a CYA to appease their fan base after not getting Manning and explain why they haven't made more moves.

They've already upgraded the receiving corps and re-signed their QB. I think the 49ers are fine. I think this was to embarrass Wallace who is making absurd salary demands.

Well according to some on here he is a Top 5 receiver like Fitz, so maybe he should be paid accordingly. On second thought, no way he is nowhere near the caliber of Fitz nor does he deserve more than him.

All he does is go deep. Not worth nearly that much per year or for eight years. As soon as he loses a step he will be worth have of his value now as it is.

He'd be lucky to get a Vincent Jackson type deal.

What a coincidence, I would also like more money than Larry Fitzgerald.

There's no doubt that I'd like to see Denver send their R1 pick to PIT for Wallace, but not at that price.
It's interesting though if you compare the first 3 years for each WR. 39 / 756 / 6 60 / 1257 / 10 72 / 1193 / 8 171 rec / 3206 yds / 24 TD 58 / 780 / 8 103 / 1409 / 10 69 / 946 / 6 230 rec / 3135 yds / 24 TD They're nearly identical - aside from the huge rec year that Fitz had. The difference being, Wallace is entering his 4th season while Fitz is entering his 9th season and for the last 5 years, Fitz has been a freak with 4 seasons over 90 receptions each - 3 with more than 1400 yds and he has 49 TDs in that span. So, Fitz has certainly earned it - don't know if Wallace can be that guy - he is about 3 inches shorter, but if you compare the first 3 years ... one could argue that he's on the right path. But, 8 years for $120M ... I think not. That averages $15M a year, don't know what bonus he got or the way it's structured. I'd be fine with going 5 years and $55M - averages about $11M a year, structure the bonus money and guarantees appropriately, and I'm cool with that... I think. Wallace would be 30 when that contract is up and still able to earn that last final big contract should his trajectory continue as it is now.
