    49ers get a 3rd round pick

    I think what the NFL is doing is a good thing. Teams aren't being rewarded for hiring minorities into position coaching positions. They're rewarded if those minority appointments go on to bigger and better things. It's not massive compensation. It equates to around 190 points on the old style...

    Seahawks new DC Just Announced - Clint Hurtt

    Hard to believe that the man with the answers to Norton Jr.'s problems was standing just a few feet away from Norton Jr. all this time.

    49ers vs Rams

    Lol @ the post editing. The "If the Niners cut Jimmy G" stuff wasn't me. Garoppolo is an asset.

    Next Seahawks mold to follow

    A few breaks here or there and the Bengals finish 4th in their division. Burrow might not last long in that offense.

    OBJ Question

    The Rams have pushed about $65M of cap hits back. For context the Seahawks have pushed about $60M of cap hits back. The Rams have a lot of talent on expiring contracts. Potentially the Rams could re-sign a lot of it and go $100M behind, which is pretty much what the Packers, Saints, and Eagles...

    49ers vs Rams

    As a Rams fan i'm obviously delighted with the result. The Rams were much the better team on the day but still the 49ers almost came away with the win. I offer my sympathies to 49ers fans but such words will sound hollow. Garoppolo is an above-average-to-good QB. The last pass trying to avoid a...

    OBJ Question

    Any team that claimed Beckham Jr. also claimed his guaranteed contract. That would have cost the Seahawks about $8M. Seems like a waste for a team that was unlikely to make the playoffs. As per his Browns contract anything Beckham Jr. earned above minimum pay from a new team would offset against...

    DK likely to be traded?

    Teams have to pay someone and it makes sense to pay the best players. It wasn't a bad comment by @Maelstrom787, just an exaggeration. Wilson is due $24M and Lockett is due $16.9M. That's a combined 20% of the expected salary cap. Metcalf should expect an extension that earns him more than the...

    We need to talk about Bobby...

    Again, Wagner is due $16.6M next season. That's the number that needs to be thought about rather than the cap number. I don't see any team being prepared to pay him that amount. The contract isn't guaranteed so theoretically the Seahawks could hold onto him and make a decision about him later in...

    Two NFC West teams in the NFC championship....

    Well put. This was never supposed to be the 49ers year. You don't invest huge resources into a developmental rookie and sit him for most of the year with an expectation of being the best in the league at the same time. The 49ers were a good team before 2021. Hit or miss with Lance they'll be a...

    Would you trade Wilson to the Giants for Blake Martinez and

    Wagner is due $16.6M next season. That's the number that needs to be thought about rather than the cap number. It will be a hard number to justify. If it isn't justifiable the question becomes what number would be acceptable to both parties, and failing that both parties will go their separate ways.

    Rams vs Chiefs Super Bowl

    Historically Pacific and Mountain time teams are chopped liver the week after back-to-back Eastern time road games. The vast majority of the time the next game after such a road trip is a home game against an average opponent. This 49ers team is only the 3rd Pacific or Mountain time team to win...

    Two NFC West teams in the NFC championship....

    There will still be a huge contingent of 49ers fans inside the stadium on game day. Tickets are expensive and I have no problem with fans making financial decisions. The 49ers have a bigger fan base than the Rams and they're more prepared to pony up. The Rams will need to be prepared for noise...

    Ken Norton Jr. Has Been Fired

    Desai did a decent job but the Bears put a lot more resources into their defense than will be possible with the Seahawks. The Bears offense was poor so their defense had lower permitted scoring targets. I'm not sure how he'd do with less resources and being a more offense friendly environment...

    Poll: YOU are GM, extend Russell at $50 million per?

    No it wouldn't. The 2022 salary cap is going to be around $208M. QBs are not being paid $62.4M year in year out. If a team pays a QB $25M per year then that's the figure to work around regardless of how the player's team manipulates the cap figures. If a team is accounting for $75M over 3 years...

    Congratulations to the 49ers.

    Poll: YOU are GM, extend Russell at $50 million per?

    It's not about cap numbers, it's about how much players are being paid. Wilson is due $24M and $27M for the next 2 years, and part of the money Wilson has previously been paid was for the Seahawks to have those 2 non-guaranteed option years. It's as if he was due $26M & $29M for the next 2...

    Congrats Niners! What do the playoff prospects look like?

    Good luck to the 49ers this weekend.
