LOL "This isn't a big deal" You must be new to football. He only made the Pro-Bowl his first 7 years in the league (of his 8 seasons), has been the face of the defense and franchise since he's been there, and just got a toe injury in week 6 last year which sidelined him. No big deal. But to be fair, Nico is a Cattle fan :P It's the end of an era (a short ass one) for the Niners especially since Justin Smith is expected to retire as well. Welcome to Yed Jork's vision of the future. |

LOL "This isn't a big deal" You must be new to football. If I discarded his injuries I apologize, however, in order to get younger and healthier you need to make sure that you need apply. I understand Willis may be instrumental to almost all of the defensive successes San Francisco has had over the past 8 years he's been in the league, but sometimes when you do have good enough replacements in line like Borland, you have to sort of feel optimistic for him too. It's what keeps a franchise effective. Players come and players go. Players usually aren't the same after injuries these days, maybe it ruins their passion for playing. I probably should not have said it's not a "big deal," what I meant to say was, Willis can be replaceable so it's not exactly the end of the world for the 49ers defense. I was impressed with Borland, think he played just like Willis at times, they're not the same player understandably, yet when a young option is in line, the safest bet to franchise stability is giving the young a chance rather than blocking their potential. |

Glad to know Green Bay locked him in for less, this organization is probably who players should be playing for. Not those desperate free agent greed hunters. Suh to Miami is smoke, I'm not sure about Dallas re-signing Murray. I bet it's smoke as well. No one has any further news except for those Twitter handles. Saints locking Ingram up is confirmed though, I like the move. Thoughts, Legendre? I'm glad they kept him. Last year showed huge signs of improvement and if he keeps working at it with that type of drive I think he'll be able to produce at a high level for another 3-4 years. Ingram's a good player and I'm glad he's still on the team. I just have no idea where we're getting the money to pay him. We're pretty much in cap space hell from everything I've seen. Aren't they trading Gallette to clear cap space? Seems like they are at least shopping him. Apparently Curtis Lofton is on the block too. Curtis Lofton released. Also, the Patriots are letting Revis become a free agent. |

Its not a super good draft for corners either, but knowing the Hawks, they'll draft one in the 6th or 7th, and he'll be the next Sherm. |

Didn't they move him to safety after being slow and out of shape in the offseason though? I honestly don't much about him, because I don't watch a ton of college football, but he has the size that you guys love, so assuming he gets back into shape, hopefully he can be molded into a good corner and/or big bodied safety. |

He was on PUP all year but I love his size. He's got a lot to work and he might not be a star with us but maybe some other team. I remember thinking he'd be the next Sherman upon drafting him when I saw his videos. He's got great coverage with both man to man and zone, just might not have the speed to keep up. |

Welcome to Seattle, Jimmy Graham!!! Win-win trade for both teams, Legendre, you'll love Unger, guy is a leader. We also didn't really need the 1st Round pick because we've got a boatload of compensatories to back it up. I like this trade, the Cary Williams deal is shit though. Could be an easy cut for next offseason if he bombs it. It's better at least than Buster Skrine or Davon House. Both who got recklessly overpaid. |

No. Revis would rather get paid $40 million in guaranteed cash (which apparently the Pats balked at). He's always been about the money. Last year's contract was just to prove that he was back to form and to cash in this season. Plus, he's already won his bowl. He's going to the highest bidder. |

If the Jets somehow pay him that, they're equally stupid. Dee Millner would have no future on the team then. I bet the Jets aren't even interested in him and think Buster Skrine will be their #2 cornerback getting paid a contract that completely will backfire when he has to cover Sammy Watkins and other AFC East receivers twice. The highest bidder I can imagine being from that of a winner. You think he has a chance of going to say, Oakland? Maybe. But I doubt it. |

Both of the big time trades seem to make sense. I'm guessing the reason to go after Graham was to duplicate what the Pats have that might have been instrumental in beating us. Now that a top tight end is on our side, things may be easier on the passing game. Willson can be an effective #2 Tight End as a result. It works out for both teams. Drafting a Center early might be a must though. Not sure if Lemuel Jeanpierre or Patrick Lewis is any good in the long run, although we can win without Unger for sure, just not easily as we did with him. We got a 4th from the Saints in the deal as well, we didn't lose any draft picks but got a later one. I'm trusting of what Pete and John did here, the Williams deal on the flip side makes sense in getting a talent at CB, but he's too much of a guy that could blow up the locker room if something goes wrong. If he calms down though and plays well, might be a better deal than I thought. Ngata effectively replaces Suh, Lions won't be going away next year. Eagles completely lost the Foles for Bradford trade. Although, I'm not sure if Foles is really a winner. Bradford is a guarantee to get hurt every year though, so they're banking on a Sanchez-lead team to carry them next year with this pattern. |

Both teams helped each other out with getting premier players at certain pressing needs. You got a 1st, we got a late pick. Both teams can build from that point onward. Not sure about what's going on with Keenan Lewis though. I'd worry for him. Chip Kelly in the wake of the final details of the Foles and picks for Bradford and picks trade seems like he just went and played Madden and accepted a trade that the computer would have most likely rejected. It's that funny. They're not getting Mariota at this rate unless they trade Fletcher Cox and possibly the rest of their draft to Tennessee. |

This past year Graham dropped a shit ton of passes, and in a few different games he did next to (or) nothing and was completely useless in those few games. He's still arguably the biggest mismatch in the league though, it's a great get for Seattle and they do come out on top in this trade. I'm happy picking up Unger, but I'm not optimistic the extra first rounder will turn into anything. The Saints have been a pretty bad drafting team under Payton/Loomis. |
Mar 10, 2015 5:27 PM

I wonder if the dropped passes were just a lack of passion and of course, an excuse to maybe get out of town. That being said, when part of us, he better not have a down year, otherwise we could cut him loose in the wake of Wagner/Wilson extensions. It's a good move on paper though, whether or not it works out completely relies on how Graham adapts to us. Not sure if we'll take a passionless tight end, he'll get benched for Willson, a tight end with a TON of passion if that's the case. Have the Saints been bad at drafting lately? I thought the Cooks pick was good. |
