The feeling appears to be mutual, as coach Jeff Fisher has spent the week praising Jackson, going as far as to say he wishes he could have coached Jackson earlier in his career. Jackson is essentially a free agent since he has the power to void his $7 million deal for 2013, but it sounds like his first, second and third options are finding a way to remain with the only team he's ever known.

didnt he ask to void that last year of his contract i thought? would love for him to leave st louis, hes a baller.
but why did he ask for that last year to void? he had a nice salary coming and would have stayed... maybe he didnt ask?
and  at jennings. him percy and wallace all wanting this crazy money. nobody will pay them what there looking for imo

No matter how hard i try, I just can't see the niners trading for Harvin. It would take a good amount of decent picks, and Harvin wants a good extension, and we have our own guys to worry about in the next few years. I don't generally concern myself with the "locker room problem", since Harbaugh has shown in his two years that he just doesn't put up with that stuff.
I still think Smith makes the most amount of sense to go to the chiefs, but I will admit that the availability of Nick Foles makes me a little bit nervous about whether or not we will be able to trade him there, and I don't know what other team fits. Reid obviously likes Foles, having drafted him once, and Foles can be seen as QB of the future with potential, where as Alex is a veteran that most people are going to consider to be a stopgap. Also, I think that whole, "Reid likes Alex" thing just stems from something that Trent Dilfer about there being a "courtship" last year, even though I can't remember anyone reporting on it and don't remember anyone confirming what Dilfer said since it's been said. With all of that being said, if the chiefs want to do what's best for their team, they'll trade for Smith. He is better than Foles right now (and there's no guarantee that Foles will become is good as smith is), and also, I'm willing to bet with all of our draft choices this year, that we are completely content to take a pick or two in next year's draft instead. this works for KC as well as they have to believe that they have enough talent on that team that with just an average quarterback they can win 6-8 games and not be drafting first or second in every round. I think the eagles, on the other hand, are going to want a pick (or picks) in this years draft for Foles. |
Some people walk into a store and buy whatever they see that appeals to them at whatever price, others will shop around to try to find something of equal value at a better price. We've shown over the past couple of years that we are the latter sort of team. I just can't see us paying top end prices for any FAs. We've got good young players on our team that we need the money to be able to keep. And we've been able to find really good guys for less money than some of the other big name guys have gone for. If Harvin wants to be one of the higher paid WRs in the league it's going to be for some other tam than us ... I think.

If the Lions were to place the non-exclusive franchise tag on Cliff Avril, do you think your team would sign him under the conditions that you give up a 2nd and 6th (instead of the usual two 1st round picks)? If not, what value do you think they'd give up?
Just to maybe help understand why you guys might like to do this: it would allow the Smiths to rush the passer more often by switching to a 4-3, you also may need to replace your NT and Ahmad Brooks and it's easier to find a DE & a 4-3 LB than a good NT and a LB as good as Brooks, this would allow you to keep Willis and Bowman on the field more often. I'm making a mock lions offseason and would like to get opinions from teams on the other end of my projected deals.

I dont see why we'd move on Avril even with a scheme change on d

Yeah, it doesn't really make sense for us, especially with our cap situation. It's just too expensive and not much of a need.

San Francisco was thought to be in fine shape in the secondary, but then Joe Flacco picked the unit apart in the Super Bowl, causing a bit of a panic. The 49ers sported the league's No. 4 pass defense in the regular season, giving up 200.2 yards per game, but that rose to 306 yards per in the playoffs. Aqib Talib is the top corner in a deep free-agent class. |

I wouldn't mind talib, though he look to be a little pricy. My guess is we are looking more mid tier like mckelvin or Quentin jammer or maybe even a PACman Jones? Interesting. Unless we are looking to dump rogers, looks like we are searching for secondary solutions outside of a high draft pick

The Browns are not expected to re-sign free agent Josh Cribbs.
Cribbs is believed to be seeking $2 million annually, and the Browns aren't willing to commit that much to a return specialist. The 49ers and Chargers have shown interest in Cribbs, who's coming off his best year as a returner since 2009.

that would seem like a bit of a waste to me unless we are going to try and incorporate him into the offense a little bit as well. we are already set at kick returner, it's just punt returning that we need help with

Can't be worse than Ginn. I'd trust his hands a lot more, if he were to play some receiver, at least.

I agree too. He probably could have been a solid WR if the Browns had chosen to use him more there.

The news scroll on NFL Network says we have expressed interest in Josh Cribbs.

He's just a newer Ginn to me. Returner that offers basically nothing at wr. Would rather draft a young guy at corner or wr that can also return. Like poyer Webb woods austin or Wheaton

Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) tweeted at 6:41 PM on Sun, Feb 24, 2013:
49ers also want to re-sign DL Ricky Jean-Francois before agency starts. If he leaves, expect at least 5-6 teams to pursue signing him.
