In order to prevent us wasting precious years of Patrick Mahomes' career, Veach needs to work some magic this offseason. What's your advice for him? [Reply]
Yeah, we'll see on Williams. Rumors are rumors. Will be fun to follow today. The 49ers are bringing the best deal they can to the table today, in all likelihood. They know this is the last chance, really. If he makes it to the open market he isn't making it back to them. [Reply]
I spoke to a free agent wide receiver about what he expects from the market in general. He said “I really don’t care what goes down in terms of where I wind up but my agent knows I only want a one year deal. That’s the goal”
I say this to say, they likely have the green light in the cash department and also still have the ability to clear a good amount in the cap department. Don't sleep on this team making a few splash signings. https://t.co/u29vowF8QQ

You do realize draft picks dont count until they sign which won't be until after several months of free agency...
So there is a legit 13 mil available right now to go get guys. [Reply]

And this is supposed to be breaking news?
What’s that? A team is working to bring back the #1 LT on the market before free agency? Stop the presses!
It’s already been reported that Williams wants to see what he can get in FA. So unless the 49ers are offering him a 5 year deal and $20 million plus a year....they aren’t signing him before Wednesday. [Reply]

Because of the risk involved.
If the 49ers offer him a competitive package but instead, he decides to test free agency, it's possible that the 49ers move on while other teams may not offer as much in guaranteed money, salary or contract length. [Reply]

I don’t see the 49ers moving on me from their package if he gets offers on day one from other teams.
The 49ers may also elect to let him go. He’s 33 and they can grab an OT in this draft at #13 if they want. Someone like Darrisaw or Slater. [Reply]
