Sherman Signs with 49ER'S (Updated)

[PWRxWLF]

We don't know if the Pats made an offer or not and probably never will. We do know, of course, that whatever the media take turns out to be, it'll be pure BS because they don't know, either.

Meanwhile, I'll take "Something Up Their Sleeves" for $1.06M.

What’s the 1.06M about? I feel like I’m missing something witty right now.

This is the post about the agents I was referring to.

Where these agents at Odell Beckham's coke party down at South Beach?

And people thought we’d get him for 7 mil ..... geez

If he was going to take a big discount, he’d probably have returned to Seattle anyways.

Oopsies.

Any idea how much money Sherman's guaranteed?

Same agents that no doubt leaked the OBJ footage in hopes of driving up hos hip/fun marketability factor.

Well, shelton is better than nothing so far

And doing nothing is better than doing a bad deal.

Ronald Darby's 2018 cap hit, if he's acquired by the Pats.

Belichick smartly stayed away. The 49ers had the space to take a $10m+ longshot gamble on an aging Hall of Fame caliber corner coming off a busted Achilles. The Patriots don't.

We know that or are you just guessing?

know

Maybe the Giants will trade DRC his 6.5 cap hit should be tolerable for a number 2 corner.

49ers might actually be a contender next season

I would be shocked if they aren't. Elite QB, elite CB, and a boatload of cap space.

Cards fans will be freaking out next season when they know they could have had him.

Well, maybe not "family to feed" at the Antonio Cromartie level, but same principle.

I love the "family to feed" rationale. Didn't Capone use it before being sent to Alcatraz?

I hope we shore up the d line and get LBs if we leave our corners as they're right now.

 

[dafoe2016]

I'm absolutely positive if we get Sherman and we make the Superbowl, Sherman will start if healthy.

I would put nothing past Bill. Control is more important than winning to him.

For some reason your post reminded me of a bit of brilliant political comedy from across the big pond.



Seems to me that a lot of people are having the Politician's Logic problem right now, especially as regards the secondary. The big, obvious media splash move and the best possible move are rarely the same move. I expect Bill to quietly bring in a couple guys we haven't heard of and one of them is going to rise to the occasion. That's where Butler came from in the first place, and Bill Belichick is one of the best in the business at finding these guys before they get expensive.
