Dashon Goldson’s grandmother apparently is weighing in on her grandson’s contract impasse with the 49ers.
Dashon Goldson @thehawk38“@msrosecooking: @sf49ers showing no loyalty to my baby, @thehawk38 (Dashon Goldson ). Any team will be lucky to get him.”>Tell em grandma!
Haven’t we travelled this road before? Goldson bid his twitter goodbyes 2 years ago to us forgiving and unforgiving fans, as Dashon struck out to find his pot of gold. Unfortunately for him, the gold turned out to be brass, and he came back and meekly signed a 1 year 2 million dollar deal after turning down his 5 year/$25 mill deal that set him on the road to perdition anyway. After a couple pro-bowl seasons, and once again feeling his oats, Dashon wants something in the range of the Tim (?) Waddell (I know, he’s the weird-ass Olympic runner) deal, and 5 years, $40 million.
Uh, no. It ain’t gonna happen Dashon. Some people think he’s a top 5 safety.Yes he has his moments of being a disruptive force, but he also has a lot of brain-dead ones as well. Bad penalties, jumping routes, and the oft-occurring getting burned deep. The playoffs were fairly galling, but that was a system wide failure of not enough pressure, and the entire DB corps getting toasted.
The 49ers have already come out and said they would not franchise him. Not too surprising as that would force the Niners to pay him $7.1 mill. It also leads me to believe that if they won;t franchise him for $7, they won’t offer him a long term deal for $8 / year. The 49ers are likely in the 5/30 range. A little rich for my blood, but I suppose it would do. The question is, does Dashon really think someone will pay him more than that? Frankly, the Niners could very well say we got the same deal from 2 years ago, skippy 5/25. Take it or hit the road, Jack. Harsh? Sure. Mean? Yeah, I guess. Know what? Tough shit. Dashon isn’t Patrick Willis. Or NaVorro Bowman. He’s replaceable. Moreso than those guys. And, like Baalke said, we can’t pay everyone. Plus, with all their leverage in this upcoming FA period and draft, they have about 20 different options to choose from.
So, the same thing will happen that happened two years ago. Dashon finds a lukewarm market (watered down even more by the rookie cap, which deflates a lot of the FA deals) and few suitors. If he’s lucky, the Niners will give him a 3/18 deal. And he’ll take it.
Forty Niners Forever 
Safety shuffle: 49ers in the mix for hard-hitting LaRon Landry
Read more here: http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/2013/03/safety-shuffle-49ers-in-the-mix-for-hard-hitting-laron-landry.html#storylink=cpy
Alex Smith has approx. 10 mins left as a 49er. Any parting words? Are we throwing a going away party? Maybe we’ll have some cake. Doubt it. I’m sure it, too, was fumbled away on its way from the bakery.
Come on Dennis,You know you want to Stuff Alex’s head on the wall at Antlers to view forever.
Looks like Delanie to the Titans, that’s a bigger loss than some think.
Yup, 4 year deal.
Maybe we can swap TEs with the Titans? I’d gladly have Cook over Walker…. any. damn. day.
Delanie wanted/deserves a chance to be the first option at TE, and that wasn’t going to happen here. Good player, but they can definitely find someone else to replace his contributions to the team.
Damn…. My boy, Cook, went to the Rams. That’s even worse. Now he’s in our division on an up and coming team.
Redskins TE Fred Davis is available. He’d be a nice upgrade over Delanie.
Lots of guys changing teams.Delanie Walker now a Titan.Mike Wallace signs with Miami.Goldson talking with Tampa.
Teams are dumping some nice players right now for cap purposes.
Nadi released from Philadelphia. Wonder if the 49ers could restructure a contract.Cheaper then the Revis Island.
Kruger gone as well from Ravens.
Mr. Smith goes to….Kansas.
http://www.49ers.com/news/article-2/49ers-Acquire-Picks-in-Alex-Smith-Trade/8c8998c0-9559-42b7-85ef-fa6997442a8a
Canty now to the Ravens. Our D line needs help!!!!!!!
So far the 49ers have lost Isaac Soap, Delanie Walker, Randy Moss and Alex Smith – with Goldson, RJF and others looking to leave as well. We’ve picked up an expensive Boldin for one year, and gained two draft choices while losing a 6th. It’s looking more and more like the front office will be asking the position coaches to coach up and get their draft choices ready. And Baalke is once again looking to second tier free agents. Jim Tomsula will need to coach up at least two new D linemen, whether it be in free agency or the draft. I’m not worried that both Ice and RJF are leaving. Both were average players in my opinion. It’ll be nice to get some new blood along the D line.
Walker? I just don’t get it. The guy is a great blocker and route runner,but he sucks at catching passes. He was the worst by far at dropping passes. Something like 30% of the shit thrown to him he botched. In the end, if he can’t catch shit, adios, muchacho. Plenty of TEs can block. And run routes. They can also catch at better than a 70% clip. Fucking Reuland was decent. Maybe not as dynamic, but, shit. Walker dropped 6 in the playoffs alone.
Fred Davis would be awesome, but I’d also love to see the Niners find another pass catching TE, or develop Tom Celek and his dolphin shorts.
I think the Niners just may go ahead and ditch the 3-4 since they barely use it anyway.
Get 2 inside guys like back in the Holt/Fagan days.
FA Glenn Dorsey might make a nice addition to our team. 300 pound DE. He didn’t do much in Kansas City, and he was hurt most of last year so there isn’t much buzz around him. He’s only played for 3 years in the league. Tomsula could turn him into something – kinda have a resurgence to his career in SF. He’s the kind of guy Baalke could target and sign because of the situation surrounding him. MIght be cheap with upside.
Grump, just saw your 10:02 post from yesterday. Very nice. Yeah, that game goes down as the worst I’ve ever seen in my life.
Want to know the killer about 1972? After Dallas scored the go-ahead TD, the Niners got the ball, and Brodie hit P-p-p-p-p-p-p-r-r-r, uh, that guy, down the sidelines to get the Niners into FG range, but the play was called back for holding. Redemption lost, Brodie got picked the next play (and fucking Gossett missed a couple FGs that day so he mighta missed the game winner anyway, but fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck, that hurt).
Woodson in for a visit. Please, no thank you,. No more old guys. The Moss/Boldin thing is enough.
Woodson as a FS would work just fine Spit.
He or Ed Reed, mentor/player coach-types, great to have while you develop behind them.
As it looks right now, we’re apparently willing to watch all of ourFAs depart.
Baalke seems to have his ducks in a row, waiting for the proper pieces to become available.
I’d consider doing a decent deal for Dorsey, and perhaps a Cap friendly offer to Seymour as well.
Sean Smith is a head scratcher, if you believe the media types who put us in the mix for his services.
Seems to me he’s looking for a big pay day ala Goldson.
As we’ve discussed, guys will come to SF for the shot at the ring, not to get rich.
I wouldn’t sign Woodson. Mentor is one thing. Legs are another.
Ed Reed isn’t one for the legs conversation any longer either.
What they lack in speed they typically make up for in smarts.
Not getting caught out of position often.
I think Baalke sees either guy as a rental while talent is developed anyway.
Saw an opinion somewhere that DeAngelo Hall could be a candidate to make that move to FS too.
Where older CBs typically end up, when the wheels don’t turn as well as they used to.
That’s the Alex Smith problem I hated so much. You don’t bring in mediocre to develop talent behind if starter is average. Develop the talent on the field. It’s not like the 49ers can’t win 10 games with a rookie starting safety. Now you can’t lean on rookies too much, but right now we’re only in jeopardy of losing two starters – Goldson and Soap. I think the 49ers can and should start rookies at both positions. However, you don’t want to leave yourself vulnerable to just relying on the draft. If Goldson goes, the 49ers have the draft and Trenton Robinson – YIKES! I’d still prefer that over signing Woodson.
We basically married Alex when he was Drafted #1 overall.
To your point, expectations were high obviously.
Once you realize you didn’t get what you paid for, you’re stuck.
Married to the Cap number and the Contract.
With a Vet, you have a body of work to base your price tag on.
Now you have the luxury of a cheaper starter and time to improve other deficiencies on roster.
Look at it as experienced talent helping you through the uncertainties of Rookie development.
At the right price you can afford the Vet leadership.
Doesn’t mean the Rookies don’t benefit or lose out necessarily.
It’s a gradual learning curve, situational opportunities are always part of the game, player packages.
The Vet at any position is a stop gap.
It’s that ‘window’ conversation we had the other night.
Pay for production. We paid Alex, didn’t get much production for a whole host of reasons.
Woodson is a savvy guy, good leader.
Will he fit the Baalke budget? See what shakes out.
He’s not what he used to be, that’s why you get the discount or, you just say no thanks.
Any guy in his shoes is seeking the Ring and knows it’s a temporary gig going in.
I wouldn’t rely on him for 16 games and beyond but, he’s just a placeholder IMO.
Another guy worth checking on for the DLine is Michael Bennett from TB.
He gets after the QB and does a good job in Run Support.
To your point about risky personalities Spit, how do you play Aqib Talib?
He’s another of those high talent, low morals guys.
Belichick took him on and, he gave up a Draft choice to get him.
I don’t think anyone wants to make a huge investment in him due to his checkered past.
Would you risk making him a below market offer to have him on the Roster?
If you do, you run the risk of bringing a cancer into the clubhouse.
It’s one thing to have a troubled player in college. It’s quite another thing to have a troubled player in the pros. If he’s in the pros and bouncing around alla Braylon Edwards, a change of scenery won’t be nearly as effective as saying, “You’re a pro now. You can make a boat load of money if you get your head straight…. and we’ll help you.” I’d take a chance on Rogers long before I took a chance on Talib.
Could happen.
I like the numbers and the size of Da’Rick too.
As for Talib?
He’d bring that swagger we’d like to have in the Division.
Just can’t convince myself that he’s worth the risk.
Titus Young and Albert Haynesworth are shining examples.
Haynesworth was the highest paid player in football and pissed it away.
Jamarcus Russell, Ryan Leaf and Rolando McClain all engaged in criminal behavior and given a second chance. Pros or not they enjoyed being criminals.
As for an answer to the loss of Delanie.
I’d put out a call to Raiders TE Brandon Myers.
I don’t even know who Meyers is. Fred Davis is a stud, and he can block. Not as fast as Delanie, but he has hands and he knows how to move the chains. I hope he sits on the market for a while.
Saw him on NFLN last week.
He isn’t a big guy, 6’4″ 250 but, he makes plays in the Red Zone.
79/806 4TDs.
Until last year he wasn’t utilized much.
It is the Raiders after all.
Worth a look I guess?
Not sure what to expect from Garrett Celek at this point either.
He got some game action last year of course, so that puts him ahead of the curve in comparison to AJ.
Recall reading that he wasn’t asked to catch much in College and he’s been working hard to improve that piece of his game.
That’s the thing…. I think if you have a good team, and the coaches are good coaches, guys like Celek can reach their full potential that’s never evaluated at the combine. It’s all about the team’s culture, and this culture is solid. Guys are convinced they have all the tools – coaches, preparation, great players around them – to excel. Celek could easily replace Walker and be great. But politics get involved. Fans wouldn’t be thrilled with Celek when really, Celek could be the best overall options (money and team chemistry considered) out there.
Celek’s game would have to be different than Delanie’s, though. He’d have to be more like his brother – move the sticks, identify and swat in zones, good hands… That wasn’t Delanie. Delanie blocked and stretched the field…. and dropped passes.
That experience comes with reps.
He got into game action, he’ll continue to put in the work and try to increase his opportunities.
We have a good chemistry for sure.
It’s a constantly evolving process. Depth is needed to cover injuries also.
Who was prepared to lose Kyle and Kendall and Mario in the same Season?
Baalke appears ready to let guys walk on his terms. He’s shown a good deal of foresight preparing the Roster for the future.
Goldson goes, someone else should be ready to go.
If not, he goes to the FA market for a stop gap option.
This is really a great year for Spitblood. Alex Smith AND Delanie Walker gone in the same year, technically on the same day? It’s too good too be true. I should mark this day on my calendar.
It’s Football. Comes in cycles.
Delanie appears to have been replaced by Boldin in the short term.
Baalke will find a long term solution I’m sure.
Look at Chicago with Urlacher. He was done 3 years ago.
Team kept appeasing the the Fan base and didn’t bother to be objective about life beyond what he was.
Kept paying for the past Urlacher.
Did they develop anyone behind him?
Apparently not.
Kept throwing money his way based on what he did in the past.
Baalke has shown that he slides the wage scale proportionate to results.
Celek doesn’t cost squat right now.
If he flops, no harm no foul. He’s gone, the Cap is fine.
I like the way he does business.
You can call it Spitblood’s A Fool Day
I have to laugh at the Ravens. All this for Joe Flacco’s contract? The lose Boldin. Lewis retires. Ed Reed is shopping. They just lost Ellerbe, their promising young linebacker who could replace Lewis? For what? Flacco didn’t beat the 49ers. The 49ers beat the 49ers. I love John Harbaugh, but the owner’s decision to make Joe Flacco the highest paid in NFL history will handcuff John Harbaugh and Ozzie Newsome for a long, long time. And if there’s one person out there who loves the Flacco deal, it’s Tom Brady. Not for the money, but because it basically weakens the Ravens so much that a major hurdle to the Super Bowl for Brady and his Patriots has now been eliminated. I have to laugh… stupid. Flacco’s not top ten.
We’ll have a similar issue with Kaep soon.
The Roster has to be managed to align with the Cap needs.
We’re purging at S and DLine right now.
Baalke will attempt to avoid what Newsome just got slammed with.
Older players move on, that’s the name of the game.
You can’t pay everyone certainly.
But, when you get your Franchise QB, he’s the guy that get’s paid above all.
Baalke will make an offer to Kaep before he gets bent over the negotiating table like Newsome did.
Extend him early.
Don’t wait for him to hit the end of the Rookie Contract.
We know Kaep is capable.
Baltimore waited for Flacco to prove it and they got screwed for playing hardball with him.
You also have to look at teams like Miami that had the Cap money to spend.
They snagged Ellerbe with an overpriced Contract offer. Hard to combat that.
We benefited as well, by taking Boldins’ Contract while their hands were tied.
The game is won or lost in the front offices in many ways.
If you Draft poorly and overspend on dead talent, (NYJ) you get bent over when it comes to negotiating with leverage.
Flacco deserved his Contract, he won a SB.
The problem was the timing of getting all those deals done under Cap pressure.
Do you think Peyton Manning is worth the $40M Denver guaranteed him?
Peyton hasn’t done squat in terms of SB wins to warrant that sort of dough IMO.
But, since it ain’t my money, Denver feels it was worth it.
All about what the Market will bear.
I’m just glad we didn’t get sucked into that situation as Denver did.
That was a desperation move that cost them a boatload of money, especially for a guy that didn’t play the year before.
Flacco got a huge deal, but just as damaging is the boatload of money they committed to Halloti Ngata. In the 3-4 your linemen are more or less there to occupy blockers. Not every lineman in the league can do it well, but there’s no way your nose tackle should be the highest paid guy on the defense.
Now they lose Pollard. HA…. The Ravens will be a joke because of two contracts. LMAO!!!!
It’s also a good sign of sorts that the CB market isn’t running wild with signings too.
Teams appear to be nervous about setting the figure for the Market right now.
Good strategy by Baalke to seek the value guys that aren’t being chased around by the media spotlight.
The longer a high flying CB waits the better the leverage for the GMs trying to sign them.
Spitblood
You are dumb enough and shortsighted enough that you would hire a child molestor to teach kindergarten.
Only if your kids were in the class. Wow…. that’s a low blow. But fuck it ….. it’s Chuck. Lol.
Oh please tell me that Charles Woodson is just visiting the 49ers and that management is not considering signing this washed up fool. 36 years old!! that is ancient! Please, Please tell me this is not going to happen!!
The Packer Defense improves when Woodson is in the lineup. He remains productive.
Do not hold his age against him if he can still play the position better than anyone on your team.
36 years old in the NFL is a day to day player, at age 36 he gets hurt and he will more than likely be gone for the season. Age is everything in sports!! I have watched the SF Giants have to learn hard lessons by continually picking up vet players instead of developing young players!! I would consider this an extremely foolish pickup!
Don’t hold his age against him? Are you nuckin’ futs?
Ryan Vogelsong, Edgar Renteria, Marco Scutaro. Yeah, those veteran pickups have really screwed the Giants these last few years.
If Woodson still has the legs to play coverage at FS then he’s likely the best option they have given what they want to commit in a contract. I don’t know what their plan is for Trenton Robinson, but he was seen as a potential round 2-3 pick prior to the 2012 draft. He may well still be seen as their FS of the future.
Reggie Bush agrees on a 4yr deal with the Lions.
The deals just keep on coming.
Boldin is a steal to me.Dude is fearless. Breaks a jaw one year and wants to still finish the year.
He will also be a huge influence on whoever else the get at WR.Be good for Crabs as well.
I think we have to get two young safeties this year, preferably through the draft – but I would not want to start both in 2013. Someone back there needs to know what the fuck is going on and make the defensive calls. So I’d acquiesce to having either Woodson or Reed for one year, to play FS, make those calls, and be a coach on the field. The alternative is keeping Whitner. Reed and Woodson are old but still playing fairly well. Whitner was awful last year. By 2014, though, I expect both kids to be playing.
I’m all over that thought Grumpy.Been feeling the same thing.I’ll take Ed Reed over Woodson anyway of the week+Sunday.Then you grab Jonathan Cyprien S ,a guy like Philip Thomas,Matt Elam or any other big hitters with size and Reed will help mentor these guys.
Might even now take a flyer on Nadi at CB.Work out a 1-2yr at most deal and under our coaching he could possibly bounce back as a shutdown corner again and really help out Tarrell Brown as well.Who I think played as good if not better then anyone else in the secondary last year.
Well we difinetly need to get some SS CB added.
Godson just divined for 5yrs with Tampa.
Damm Between Goldson and Mark Barron,that’s the some heavy wood.Some Poor Reciever may get killed next year.
Niners signed Chiefs DT Dorsey
My sources were right.
He should be roughly a replacement for RJF, with Ian Williams penciled in to replace Soap. Now if we can draft a couple of big mean SOBs to rotate in, we’ll be in better shape next year.
Man the feeding frenzy continues!!
Adding a Stud on the DL in Dorsey,real great addition. Can play right side and NT.Former 1st rd pick,#5 I believe.
Dorsey is exactly the kind of guy the 49ers need. Can play right now, has experience, and is motivated to play well because he basically washed out in KC. In addition, despite one year of health concerns, Dorsey has been relatively healthy in the NFL. This is a good move. Get him into the rotation, have Tomsula coach him up, and he’ll start making plays. Probably more than Soap. He’s only 300 pounds, so I see him being more apart of the DE rotation than the NT in a 3/4, but like Grump and others have talked about, we don’t use a straight 3/4 often. Dorsey’s a nice addition. Don’t know the terms of the deal, but can’t imagine we overpaid for him.
I’m not going to get too giddy about Dorsey. He is a guy who basically underachieved and flopped in KC. He gives us a body for the rotation, particularly if the draft board does not yield us enough DL help this year. He is insurance against having to reach for a DE, in other words. Now maybe Tomsula can spin straw into gold and jump start his career, and maybe he can’t. But not having to reach to fill immediate holes lets us take, if not the overall BPA, then at least the BPA in an area where we have clear need.
Would I rather have Jenkins or Canty? Sure. But Dorsey is exactly the kind of guy the 49ers can get more out of. Carlos Rogers, Brooks and Whitner were all cast offs. I betcha Dorsey has found a home. I’m not giddy or overly thrilled, but the move makes sense.
Yeah it does makes sense. It’s low risk, low probability of hitting the jackpot, but there’s always the chance. If he is not helping, you cut him and you’re only out a presumably modest signing bonus. If it works out, you at least replace RJF as a reliever on the line, with the small chance he finally plays like the Fifth Overall pick he once was. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
I’d still like to see the 49ers use a high pick on DT…. and then a later round DT as a project. I’m not thrilled about Ian Williams….
The defense still needs two DLs, one OLB, one ILB, one CB and two safeties. Offense a WR, a TE, a T, a QB, and throw in a K.
That’s 12 guys, that you want to keep. A FA safety makes no difference because he would be replacing Whitner in my mind, not Goldson. One rookie safety needs to start. But figure one of those gets filled with an unexpected FA. That leaves 11, out of 14 draft picks. Use the other three on fliers – guys with huge upside, who were fuck ups. Cut them if you need to – these are lottery ticket guys, high reward or busts. If your fliers make the team, they can push off marginal talent or rookies.
With all the picks we have this year, our draft strategy can include some risk. From the third or fourth round on, we should look to take some fliers on guys who have the talent but have been fuck ups in some way. I would take three or four guys like that. If you have to cut them, no big deal. But take guys with the athleticism to be special if they get their head together.
First day of camp, have them and only them come to a special meeting. Have Alex Boone talk to them about last chances. Then have Harbs get up, look each one in the eye, and say, “I’ve got a 53-man roster penciled out in my head… and NONE of you fuckers are on it. I expect to cut you all…
“If you want to change that, you’d better be prepared to get your sorry asses out on that field every day and prove to me why I should keep you. You ain’t on scholarship any more. SHOW me what you can do… or expect to be bagging groceries somewhere come October.”
Grumpy, that doesn’t seem like Harbaugh’s MO. More like this guy:
Airborne, Ranger, Special Forces, I don’t give a fuck, I’ll jump down there and kill all you fuckers. I’ll kill half of you with one hand and the rest of you will kill yourselves trying to get away from me. Welcome to Special Forces selection – Bob Howard.
I don’t know who Bob Howard is but he fires me up…. HIT SOMEBODY!!!
I’d rather we found a way to keep Goldson. Not my favorite player but certainly one of the top few safeties in the league. Any of the old guys looking for a retirement job won’t be half as good here.
RJF’s strength is his ability to backup any spot on the DL. Sopoaga will be harder to replace. What’s Aubrayo Franklin doing these days?
Hopefully, his name is Ian Williams now. If not, we’d better hope the guy we get in the draft is ready to play this year!
I like the Boldin trade. Dorsey’s a warm body. Not expecting much. Goldson got overpaid, IMO. I was also wrong about Welanie Dropper. Didn’t think other teams would cough up so much. I still see us drafting DL, OLB, S/CB and WR with the first 4 picks, depending on any further whealin’ dealin’.
Those fuckin’ Patriots….. just when you think they’re done and no longer competing, losing Welker, they sign Danny Almondwhat’shisnuts. Almondwhat’shisnuts might be better than Welker…. younger, more injured, but didn’t have Brady throwing him the football. My guess is it’s an upgrade. I can’t wait for the Patriots’ run to be over….
The Incas or the Mayans or the Aztecs…. can’t remember which one…… but one of those insane bastards used to play a death match of soccer/basketball – games would last all day and sometimes two days. The losing team would be sacrificed. Now that’s a spectator sport. My sense is, and I know I’m going the long way around the barn (it’s an art form really) but my sense is that Baalke could be playing an Aztecian death match against another GM for who could draft the better wide receiver and Baalke would lose ten out ten times, which really doesn’t make much sense if the loser gets sacrificed the first game, but you’re a little nuts like I am. You’re pickin’ up what I’m layin’ down… and you should be embarrassed.
ElamChunky….Guess Tampa shot your Goldson theory to shreds.Giving him 5/41mil 22 Guaranteed .HE WILL TAKE IT,JUST NOT FROM THE NINERS!!
There are teams out there ready to spend and teams looking to unload.
Crazy stuff right now.Now the Niners are interested in Asomugha like I mentioned this earlier.Hey why not? a big corner there looking for(a possible still shutdown corner cheaper then Revis) who could still mentor Tarill Brown who IMO could turn into another shutdown guy.Still want those Safety’s. in the draft like my guy Cyprien, Thomas,Elam,Amerson,or in thea perfect world Vaccaro & Cyprien!!!! That Secondary would be terrific.
Baalke may shock us all still on Draft day,he’s very unpredictable. as we all know.But we certainly have alot of ammo to use.
Hey wait,we did get Glen Dorsey the football player right?
Not the Orchestra leader Glen Dorsey or Tommy?
Whewww..that scared me a second.That would be a Raiders move,thank god our Niners are alot smarter.Which doesn’t take much,since the Raiders will always a be the laughingstock of the NFL.
I don’t want to see the 49ers pickup another free agent or make another trade. NO MORE FREE AGENTS. NO MORE TRADES! Just focus on the draft. Coach ’em up.
Sure, guys like Greg Jennings, Woodson and Nnamdi are big names, and you’d think – “great, we’re solid there for a year,” if we acquired one. But we wouldn’t be. Woodson was injured last year. Nnamdi wouldn’t tackle or go over the middle for Castilla. Greg Jennings spent the year in the studio shooting Old Spice commercials that really aren’t that funny. But when he runs on the field in the bed you can see his wife’s jugs bounce…. so there’s that. But what the hell was I writing about…. oh yeah. No more free agents. We should, however, be discussing free agent cheerleaders.
Actually….. one name just popped up…. L. Robinson. I can’t spell his first name off the top of my head. It’s something like Laurent? What a gay name. Anyway. He had a big first half two years ago in Dallas, didn’t get re-signed, then dropped off the radar last year in Jacksonville because of two words…… Alex Gabbert. But I digress upon a digression. Robinson might be a good, late, nobody, cheap pickup. But after that, I swear, no more free agents!
I need to call you an idiot on a daily basis Spitblood. Robinson was cut because he had 4 concussions last year and probably should retire if he wants to live a functional life.
The Forty Niners will sign at least 3 to 5 more free agents.
As for Asomugha do you know what your talking about? He had as many tackles as the best Forty Niner cornerback and more passes defensed last season. For the right price he would be a great addition.
I love me some Touchdown Tommy. It’s flattering, really.
Bitches, Bitches, Bitches!!! I see everyone flocked to a place where you can all be delusional agree with one another, with no word from the real world.
Chuck, what happened to your buddy Alex Smith? All these people followed you here not knowing that you blindly supported Alex Smith since 2005? Yeah I definitely want to hear this guys opinion on the 49ers!!! LOL!!!
What are you all Kap Supporters now? Let’s go gangster and try to win that way? Hell Alex might of sucked but at least he had class! With Kap you all must now learn gangsta language. You might as well start rooting for the Raiders, we’re now a carbon copy.
“You dumb mug, get your mitts off the marbles before I stuff that mud-pipe
down your mush – and tell your moll to hand over the mazuma.”
We go from Montana and Young to the Tattoo Parlor, thug as you now enjoy rolling with Kap and his Homies?
Del, you have a lot more to worry about than Alex Smith, because Kap and the 49ers will never recover from choking in the Big Game.
Go ahead Chuck delete me, “I’ll Be Back!”
Bitches, Bitches, Bitches!!! I see everyone flocked to a place where you can all be delusional agree with one another, with no word from the real world.

Del, you have a lot more to worry about than Alex Smith, because Kap and the 49ers will never recover from choking in the Big Game.
Go ahead Chuck delete me, “I’ll Be Back!”
Damn Greg?
You sure showed us huh?
Tats and good football go together now days.
Raider Football is an oxymoron.
Alex is gone, just like JaMarcus.
Oh wait, JaMarcus didn’t get traded, he’s not playing football anymore.
With all the history you have over there in Oakland I wouldn’t talk.
What big game excitement did you bring since Chuckie dismantled you?
Oh wait, Callahan sabotaged that game.
You have Carson Palmer and DHB.
Oh wait, DHB is looking for work?
You still have Rolando McLain. Maybe?
Run DMc is a stud, when he laces them up 6 times a Season.
Wanna deal for some good football players?
Oh wait, you don’t have any Picks left from all those other blockbuster deals Al made.
Raider Football.
Go figure?
Not much football being discussed on the Raider Blog Greg?
i wonder why?
Raider Football.
OXYMORON.
Jesus Christ. What the fuck is going on with this one? Bath salts? Gotta be bath salts.
Unbunch your panties and join the rest of us in the 21st century, Norman Rockwell. Kaepernick’s about as far from being a “thug” as one can get. He’s a favorite among Christian groups and spent his free time in college speaking at churches. I guess it’s not the wholesome locker room environment of Charles Haley waving his dick at Joe Montana screaming “you know you want it” but it’s hardly San Quentin.
NJ…One look at that putrid bowl-hair cut of Al’s dumbass son Mark is all anyone needs to know about Raider Football.
Don’t the Raiders need to cut all 53 (Losers) players as well to get under the Cap?
Bucky Larson:Born to be a Star Alleykat.
Raider Football. Where every NFL Sunday is Halloween.
The Black Hole. The Eye Patch. The Autumn Wind.
Whole lot of history over there.
Ancient History.
Hell at least the Raiders didn’t put a Gangster, Thug in at QB! I understand that your brain is programmed to accept anything but the 49ers with all their past “Winning With Class ”Moments, for them to now be the first franchise to put a guy who looks like he just got paroled behind center, is a travesty no matter how you try an cover it up.
It’s cool, all I’m saying if you accept it please don’t say another word about the Raiders Image. Because our very own image has gone down the toilet and it’s night and day when you compare Montana or Young to the Original Gangster Kap.
Gangster?
How many thugs show up in the Black Hole on Sundays Greg?
You need all those costumes so you can hide your faces.
OK for you to talk image to us?
What image have you ever had?
Don’t like a rebuttal, don’t throw down Greg.
Do a little research on Kaepernick.
You just might find out that the kid has more going for him than the ink he uses on himself.
He may have lost a SB but guess what?
He played in 10 Pro games and almost pulled it off.
Can the speech Greg. You bring garbage, you get garbage in return.
Bottom line Greg.
The 9ers put a QB at QB.
You still haven’t found one.
So, to your point, don’t accept a cheap imitation at QB.
Bad for business.
Carson might be a squeaky clean PR symbol but guess what?
He hasn’t won squat.
“Hell at least the Raiders didn’t put a Gangster, Thug in at QB!”
Really? You think JaWalrus got his “purple drank” from the local Wallgreen’s? Carson Palmer was a U$C party boy and Terrelle Pryor got kicked out of Ohio State for trading game memorabilia for credit at… wait for it… A TATTOO PARLOR!
Like I said it’s cool, if you want to hang out with Kap and his Homie, Thugs down at the Tattoo Parlor, instead of defending a guy who represents our franchise with dignity, knock yourself out. Only remember Class like Rogers, Brady, Eli will always win over a wannabe gangster who thinks only of himself.
Look on the bright side think about the new breed of criminal fans Kap will bring to the stick. They’ll give many people new jobs with all their drinking, doing drugs, fighting, vandalizing and stealing girl’s purses. Tattoos and a Kap Jersey goes together like Chocolate cookies and milk!
Yeah while Montana was preparing to win the Super Bowl, we had a thug thinking about his next tattoo and his Tee Shirt Line, great just great!
With Kap, we need to now let that sissy Red and Gold Color go, Black and Blue baby like, Schlitz Malt Liquor! Del loves that shit!
GO CRIMINALS!
Way to judge a book by it’s cover Greg.
I have tattoos too. No one calls me a thug.
The new breed of criminal fans all got their collective starts in life from the original breeders.
The Oakland Raiders.
Original NFL Thugs.
Kaep has a Charity.
He has a pet tortoise too.
Apparently you have issues with tattoos.
Get over it.
When you have some football to discuss, go somewhere where other Raiders Fans congregate.
Probably on a street corner near a liquor store would be my guess.
Dignity and Class?
From a Raider Fan?
Again.
OXYMORON.
While Raiders QBs were preparing for the SB the Team died of old age Greg.
Don’t tell anyone.
Just win baby.
Yes, all these kids with their tattoos and their hippity hop music and iPhone internet gizmos! What happened to the days when men were men and coffee cost ten cents a gallon and a man could slap his wife in public without fear of getting arrested? Now it’s all baggy pants and tattoos and scary, scary minorities! GET US BACK TO MAYBERRY, GREG!
FlyingV68!
Happy days are here again. I’m fucking tingly with joy.
Flying V!!!!!! Calling Kaep a thug really, really, really is an awesome troll. I so want to bite….
Hollow points. When you care enough to use the very best…
LMAO!!!!
Raiders should be pitied. If they win a couple of games this next season it will be a major accomplishment.
Hell, keeping their players out of lockup would be a major accomplishment for those punks.
Wow. Full circle, eh? I can’t wait for the Eddie rants.
Lotsa shit going down these last couple days. Dorsey? Ehhh. he’s fine as a body in the middle. At least he’s young. Moreso than Soap. Goldson? Wow. He got his $41 mill. Welcome to the erosion of his game. One thing particluarly galling about his comments after signing with Tampax was his statement that he can now take care of his family. Like the Niners were pissing on him by paying him $7 million last year. Poor guy only made $22 million (or whatever) playing with the 49ers. Shades of Latrell Sprewell.
Soap AND RJF looking to go to Philly? Funny, the Iggles are looking for ‘character’ guys now rather than the splashy FA signings. Better late than never.
Whitley and many others compared Kaepernick to a hardened criminal from San Quentin and you guys are talking smack about the Raiders? Hell Kap in Oakland would be their Messiah, all the so-called criminals would rejoice with joy, then riot, then ravage, rape and pillage.
I understand now that ANYONE accepted and CLASS and DIGNITY of this once prestigious QB position was somehow flushed down the toilet. Yes the QB position is the CEO, he represents your franchise. If you’re OK having the first QB that looks like a criminal representing your team fine but please don’t ever call out the Raiders because you’re cheering on their very image you proclaim to hate.
We went for a Golden Boy Image to “Let’s cruise with my homies through the ghetto and be up a case of 40’s”
Yikes. Racist prick now? Good for you, V. Welcome to 1935. Maybe if you actually knew that Kappy was a straight A student in both high school ancd college, you’d get off your racist stance.
Why deal in truth when you can act like the Grand Duke from the safety of your mom’s computer? I knew you wrere always a misinformed idiot, but this is really the best you’ve done, V. Taking pussiness to the next level of bad tase.
Delete you? Hell no! It’s way too much fun reading your delusional ramblings. I see you’ve really gone around the bend. I see some EST in your immediate future.
Too bad Cracker U didn’t take your home-printed misspelled GED for acceptance. Beauty school drop-out, eh? “I likes my QBs white and creamy! Tom Brady is so gosh darn dreamy!”
“But, but, Tom Brady looks so purdy as he chokes in Super Bowls.”
LMAO
“ZOMG!!!The 49ers’ quarterback is a BLACK MAN!!!!! With TATTOOS!!! Lock up our precious white women ‘afore they git CON-tam-uh-Nated!”
Hey, I hear KC has a white QB. Milk drinking Mormon choir boy, even. Go be a fan there.
“Whitley and many others compared Kaepernick to a hardened criminal from San Quentin”
Well if a complete fucking idiot said it then it must be true!
“Hell Kap in Oakland would be their Messiah,”
Raider fans don’t have a Messiah. Al Davis expressly forbids the worship of graven images.
“I understand now that ANYONE accepted and CLASS and DIGNITY of this once prestigious QB position was somehow flushed down the toilet.”
Joe Montana once said on national television “I’ll just be up in my room masturbating.” But by golly, he did it with pristine skin!
“If you’re OK having the first QB that looks like a criminal representing your team fine but please don’t ever call out the Raiders because you’re cheering on their very image you proclaim to hate.”
Darn. Looks like we’ll have to stick with talking about how the Raiders totally suck. WE’VE LOST THE TATTOO HIGH GROUND!
“We went for a Golden Boy Image to “Let’s cruise with my homies through the ghetto and be up a case of 40’s”
Yo yo yo! Funky Kaep gonna cruise to the Youth Group meeting with his homey Mr Tortoise and rap about that OG Jesus Christ! Homie rolled strong with his posse of disciples and that freaky Mary Magdoline.
Please keep this act up, Greggy. you’re a blast to read. It’s like someone crossed Andy Rooney with Gomer Pile and fed it nothing but paint chips.
Boys, what do y’all think? I think Kappy’s inky blackness makes Greggy-Boy nervous about his tiny white penis.
I think Kaep is the new face of America. Better not get stuck in 1970.
Racist? I love how you can’t say a word today without a Liberal labeling you a Racist, lol! All these men died for our freedom of speech and you sissy girls go around crying racist at a drop of a dime, you want us all to give up our freedom and stay silent like you. The funny thing is people actually come here and listen to what you have to say, lol!!!!! I understand without me, it’s peaceful times in a delusional, misguided, upside down world and it’s nice when everyone’s in agreement to stay silent and accept anything.
Sorry in the real world, once known as America this shit just doesn’t fly. I’m surprised No Fear is still here, the other guppies, I mean puppets I understand completely why they found this safe haven.
This has nothing to do with anyone’s color of skin, in fact if Billy The Exterminator, he as white as they come and if he was our starting QB, I’d be saying the exact same thing. The QB represents your franchise, he’s the CEO, do you even remember this? What happened to CLASS AND DIGINTY? I understand anything goes now but come on man! Kap compared to Montana/Young is like night and day. Did you see the pictures of Kap and his Thug Friends at the Tattoo Parlor? Now every 49er jumps around like monkeys free from the jungle under Harbaugh’s watch. Players are getting arrested every week, it’s a Fuckin Free For All! Our Head Coach acts like a sniveling, little baby when he loses and Jumps in the air like a classless fool, slapping coaches in the back when he wins? Who are you people who accepted this Jungle Free For All?
Class has left the building and for anyone to stay silent means anything goes and anything will do and that’s a tragedy no matter how you try and cover up your blindness.
Racist? No a concerned American with Morals is more like it.
I’m not a liberal you ignorant little bitch. I’m a libertarian.
And, yeah, you are a racist. But that’s not your biggest problem. Your biggest problem is that you’re a fucking idiot.
Class and dignity? You never fucking had any, Gomer.
LMFAO Grumpy!!!!!
“Did you see the pictures of Kap and his Thug Friends at the Tattoo Parlor? Now every 49er jumps around like monkeys free from the jungle under Harbaugh’s watch.”
Yeah, nothing racist about that at all…
THIS MENACE TO SOCIETY MUST BE STOPPED!
Man, what a scary image..
Flying V is stuck in 1970. That sucks for him. He’s not a menace or an idiot. He’s just hoping life stays the same because he’s too insecure to get out of his comfort zone.
I meant Kaepernick and his thug tortoise. Look at those soulless, cold eyes. That tortoise will shoot your family and not think twice!
Grumpy, you’re no libertarian, you’re just in agreement with anything that comes your way in life. No Flags Of Contest Fling Near Your Neighborhood! A Gay Guy at QB, that’s cool, when’s the season start, lol!!!!
JDR, Kaepernick’s entire back is draped in ink. His shoulders are covered down to his elbows.
And after each touchdown he scores, Kaepernick kisses his tattoo-covered biceps, drawing attention to Andrion’s work.
Andrion, who works in a small building with no parking lot about 2 miles from where Kaepernick played college football, has seen his business rise along with Kaepernick’s stock. It didn’t hurt when a columnist disparaged Kaepernick’s tattoos, saying the quarterback is the CEO of the team and a CEO shouldn’t have tattoos. In fact, it has helped.
“Yes Kap’s Image has helped the Tattoo Thug, Criminals of the Ghetto and 49er (Raider) fans are now loving it, for some strange reason!”
Split, you know how much I hated Alex Smith, in fact, I was against him since he was drafted but there’s one thing a person living in reality must realize at least Alex Smith had class. He was a loser QB but he represented our franchise well. Kap represents a Thug Life, associated with people engaged criminal activities. If you’re all right with that it only shows one thing, “Anything Goes” with you and that my friend is a tragedy and a waste of existence.
“The 49er draft the first female QB, Cool I can’t wait till she gets tackled wearing her skirt!”
Hey look, Greggy learned how to copy and paste! It’s probably for the best that you’re ripping off sections of old stories for your responses, we’ve all seen what happens when you attempt original thought.
If Kaepernick is the embodiment of “thug life” in America then crime is about to drop through the floor. Though it is funny to picture Lil’ Greggy cowering in fear at the thought of Kaepernick and his pet tortoise cruising the mean streets of Turlock, looking for a church service to attend. SO SCARY!
The only thing I’m in agreement with is that you’re a fucking moron.
Kaepernick is one of the smartest, hardest working guys on this team. He was more of a scholar than 99% of the guys in the NFL, and works with charities. You just can’t deal with his ethnic background. So you’re here vomiting your stupidity about jungle drums or jungle boogie or whatever the fuck your latest code words are.
I say you’re a racist twat, and I say to hell with you.
We’re losing our freedoms because our QB is a minority with tattoos? Who in the fuck is this guy?
It’s FlyingV68, the bane of the Chronicle Insider and as JDR says, Poster Boy for why you should do bath salts.
Got it.. His stuff over there seems like trollish schtick.. Sadly, over here his true colors come out.. Study after study has shown that racism and bigotry correlate with low intelligence.
RJF to the Colts.. 22mil? Haha.
That’s a lot of money for mediocre. I wonder how much of it is actually guaranteed.
Hey FlyingV,
Good to see you still finding flames to fan.
Not being one to accept everything that comes down the pike, I can’t accept your bashing CK7 because he likes tattoos. Most everyone I know in his age group likes them, too. At least he’s not branding himself with a hot iron. I never could understand that. It still wouldn’t make him a prison gang lifestyle promoter. What? You don’t know any upstanding gee-tar pickers that have tattoos?
CK7, aside from his physical abilities, acts like a leader in a way that Alex never approached until his last year here. Even this year Alex was moping and complaining in the press that he didn’t do anything to lose his job until someone reminded him that that was the exact scenario that enabled him to become a starter.
No, I’ll gladly take CK7 and his bicep kissing and all his tattoos over Alex Smith and about 95% of the rest of the QBs in the league.
At least we’re not Raiders fans. …..then we all would be loony.
Judging by the rantings and ravings on this blog, that’s highly debatable.
Vtard, you got what you wanted, right? The return to relevance and Alex Smith being released? Now you’re not happy with Kap because of his tats? You, sir, are a world class schmuck.
Hey I have the QB /Duo player situation solved.
We bring Jarmarcus Russell in as Kappy’s backup then use him as a backup Offensive Linemen as well.
We could rent him out as a breakwater down at the Marina during the week, too.
JDR, remember these words, “The city has turned into jungles and corruption is spanning across the land” Kap as an example of an outstanding individual is laughable! He might not be a thug but he sure dresses and acts like one. Having your QB associated with criminals is accepted and now embraced by those of you who should know better.
“Kaps not really in a gang, he just dresses and appears to be!”
Great, Just Great!
Today Kaepernick got arrested with his posse for drinking a driving and running over ten innocent bystanders”
JDR, that’s a real tragedy, those people shouldn’t have been hanging around there. Excuses after Excuses!
—-
Grumpy, Kaepernick fell asleep during the first half of the Super Bowl. He was thinking about his next Tat and Tee Shirt Line and all that cash. Don’t get mad that I have your number in accepting anything. The Ravens came to win the Super Bowl not to put on a spectacle. No one recovers from choking in the Super Bowl. Remember your friends, Nolan, Singletary, Alex and Jimmy Raye?
Ahhhh…..GO NINERS!!!! I have no brain to form an opinion but count me in, LOL!!!!
—–
Chico, don’t worry you and your family are a big problem we face in America today. Let’s just live off the taxpayers.
—–
Fear, yes he’s better than Alex Smith and so is three quarters of the QB in the NFL. It once was a prestigious position but now thanks to Harbaugh the team that once represented CLASS has found its way representing the gutter. What it never crossed your mind that anyone other than Smith would be better?
—–
Nip, how the hell are you? Yes you’re not actually the Raiders but with Kap and the others on our team we easily can trade places without no one noticing anything.
—–
Sham, yeah we finally got rid of Alex but instead of replacing him with CLASS we got a guy who looks like he just got paroled. Nothing like setting a good example for others to follow. Let’s bring in Vick and complete the transition, LOL!!!
Ah… to be in America, in the Spring, when the idiots are in bloom…
How exactly does he “act” like a thug, Greggy? Is it when he’s hanging around his pet turtle? Or is it when he’s at practice? What is so “thug” about him? He looks to me like any other person his age does these days. Oh, wait, I get it, you’re old and completely out of touch with the world! THAT’S why you’re so bitter!
It’s okay, Greggy. Time passes us all by eventually. Just remember, when that “thug” looking guy comes to take you away later, a lot of policemen have tattoos these days too. He’s only there to help you, Greggy.
My family lives off of tax payers? Huh? You don’t even know me, dude..
I don’t mean to get political here, but since you insinuated that my family lives off of tax payers (my family pays plenty in taxes) — I’ll point out that people like you are really giving republicans a bad name.. With a 19 percent approval rating of republicans in congress, folks like you aren’t doing them any favors.. Your assumptions make about as much sense as your football rants..
You’re a racist tea-bagging piece of shit, and thank god your kind will be dying off in the next decade or two.. Shit, in the near future everybody will be Heinz 57’s.. I’d be happy to lunch you on any topic except racism.. You got me on that subject.
FlyingV would rather have Alex Smith than Colin Kaepernick. The irony is so thick. For years V went around bashing Alex Smith, and now, with Smith jettisoned to KC, V is wishing Alex was back. Nobody with a football mind would take Alex Smith over Colin Kaepernick. Nobody.
But that’s just it – V’s never been much of a football mind.
I don’t even care what the competition is all about – Colin beats Alex at anything. Lets have them both run for public office. I’ll take Colin over Alex any day because Colin overcame stuff in his life and has already taken the 49ers to a higher place. Colin’s adopted. What did Alex Smith overcome to get to the pros? Urban Meyer? Reggie Bush? Colin’s a winner while Alex is a loser, and that’s why V loves him some Alex. V likes losers.
V has never been much of a MIND. Period.
V just misses that roll to the right and throw out of bounds play. We should just name it in his honor. “Alex Smith V right on three, hut.”
If you put a pee under Nnamdi’s mattress, he’ll show up to practice black and blue. And if you have a princess like that who just made 10 plus million per year without wanting or needing to tackle, what’s to say he’s going to take a third of that to start jeopardizing his body? That dog don’t hunt. Freddy P Soft is screaming in Harbaugh’s ear right now – don’t do it! “He’s not worth it, Jim. Damn it, Jim.” He’s old, just got paid millions, and he’s going to play for less and actually go over the middle or start tackling? HA! Surely you jest, and stopping calling me Shirley….. or Nnamdi’s agent.
Nnamdi definitely has the look of a guy who let up after he cashed in with a big contract. Then again, that Philly organization has been so dysfunctional it’s hard to tell with a lot of the players.
Years of bashing Smith, now we get this. Well played, sir. In looney town. Randall P McMurphy wants to take you out on his boat.
Shit, spit. Someone is here that makes you look sane. Like Bill O’Reilly going from loudmouth bloviator to the sane one on Fox , , ,
And the Last shall be First, and the Crazy shall be last, and lots of Shrooms shall be done. So it is written. Probably By Hunter S. Thompson.
The 49ers finally found their first real franchinse QB since Steve Young and all you care about is his fucking tattoos? What kind of goofy fan are you? Colin Kaepernick is a thug criminal?? What the fuck are you talking about, dude?
Chuck, nothing like a programmed Liberal who thinks only the way they tell him to think. Bringing up Bill O’Reilly while taking one side of the most Corrupted Government in the history of the USA. Nothing like being blind when two CRIMINAL sides pit two worlds against each other and a Clown stands by one because “He doesn’t have a brain”
Yeah those evil Republicans, lol!!!!! The guy I just voted in office is not EVIL, LOL!!!! With voters like you we’ll have to hit rock bottom, while you look around asking, “What Happened?”
—–
Spit, no Alex Smith needed to be replaced no question about that, I just thought the people running the 49ers would have enough CLASS and DIGNITY to put a respectable, individual behind center.
No matter what you think is possible, in the real world you still win with CLASS. Maybe VD or Kap needs to pop a Kap in yer ass to wake you up.
—–
Grumpy, I’d rather hear an opinion rather than someone who just goes along with anything. The new NFL rules state “You can’t look at the QB funny anymore or it’s a personal, 15 yard foul!
Grumpy: “That’s cool, when is breast cancer awareness month? I LOVE THE NFL IN PINK!!!”
——
JDR, if you look like a thug and associate yourself with thugs, chances are you are a THUG AT HEART!
So he’s a SECRET THUG? He’s a COVERT THUG waiting for the right moment to take us all by surprise with his SPONTANEOUS THUG energy? He may not even be aware of himself, but when cornered he unleash his secret THUG SUPERPOWERS and the world will know of the THUGGY THUGNESS Colin Kaepernick harbors.
“Blind legions of escaped goats at twelve o’clock!!!”
(Another V classic)
My opinion is that Kaepernick is an okay guy, that the 49ers are better off than three years ago, and that you are a mentally challenged Oompa Loompa who has snorted far too many bath salts.
