<p class="">Pierre Garçon to sign with the 49ers. He was our No. 8 WR in 2016 and dropped only one of his 80 catchable targets.

Quote:I'm not going to derail another thread with Caldwell honesty talk, so I'll just say this and stop with any more replies.

 

If you think about the fact that Dave has worked with the most draft capital of any GM in NFL history (no GM has ever had 4 drafts of top 5 picks...and he's somehow about to get a 5th), and objectively look at that list you just mentioned, it would be extremely difficult for any non-raging homer to disagree that it would make for an abysmal greatest hits record. 
Agreed that I don't want to derail this thread-though given the nature of the thread I don't see it possible.

 

I will say your assertion here that Caldwell didn't make the most of his picks is a different proposition than the statement to which I responded.  Had this been your original assertion, I would have no issue with it.

From a pure talent perspective, I don't see Pierre Garcon as an upgrade over Torrey Smith.  I think Garcon was the guy because he knows the scheme.
Wasn't there a lot more news by this time last year?
Quote:I think our defense would be better with 10 guys if it included Campbell than 11 guys if it had both Odrick and Cyp. 
To say nothing of Alualu and Cyp.
Quote:I do like that Tom Coughlin just said in a interview on Jaguars Live before the State of the Franchise address that you have to overpay for guys that you need/want, and that's it's just part of it.  He also acknowledged that the Salary Cap will rise every year.  This makes me hopeful that we are going to do what it takes to get one or two of the big name targets.
 

Overpaying shouldn't even be a talking point with free agency (it's a given as it's what free agency is,) but somehow it always seems to be brought up.

Not a very notable signing in my book.  
I think we get Zeitler Campbell and church. Sign me up.

I heard on the radio today that a lot of teams are scared about what happened to the Chiefs a couple years with Maclin.

If eagles do get him, I have a feeling it's going to be a huge contract...... especially if they outbid us.

He must really like Kyle Shanahan

I think a lot of players do.
Garçon is supposed to make 16 miles in the first year in San Fran.....I'm sure that helps

Look for Shanahan to pursue Cousins.

I'd bring in Pitta (if cut) if the price was right.
