J-ALL-DAY Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 I never understood getting mad at that. I mean isn't that a Thanksgiving tradition? The winning team and the players of the game always have been eating turkey regardless if it is on the opponent's field or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissooner49er Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 My real issue isn't with the $$$. My issue is "Will we regret not going for someone else" because we grabbed Sherman but he could not get back to his previous self? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you're in love with a rookie CB, none of the other corners hitting the market will make you feel this way looking back. Butler and Breeland probably have the best upside, but even then, one would be hard pressed to pass up a chance at an all-pro corner, even if coming off an Achilles, and especially when you can do it on a team friendly deal.

I never truly liked Trumaine, I'm meh on Butler and don't think Breeland is that great. So no, not really. There seems to be great corners in the draft every year, recently. If Sherman fails, let's grab one next year. Or sign next year's top free agent. Or maybe we draft someone this year who develops into a starter over the year, or next year. I don't see it as the end of the world, if the Sherman experiment fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravity Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Most likely 49ers get a slot mid tier CB and draft a Cb de develop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4L Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 In warming up to this move a lot. A motivated Sherman is someone I don't mind having on my side. Interesting point that John Clayton made today, he said that he anticipated we allocated some funds towards Johnson before we knew sherman would be available. By giving the contract that we did for a 'top' corner but not spending as much as we might have, it gives us flexibility in adding some money to another position in free agency. Interesting take. We really have three corners right now - Witherspoon, Sherman, and Williams. If I am not mistaken teams usually carry 5 or 6 corners (depending on who plays STs) so we need at least two more. We will undoubtedly draft one early, so signing a veteran in the second wave of free agency for a good price should fit the bill. I wonder how much our lack of pass rush will affect FA cbs' decision. You would think it's like a wr who wants to be paired with a good QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flip side if we didn't sign Sherman, you could make the same counter-argument, "regret signing someone else because we could've grabbed Sherman who does return to his previous self" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissooner49er Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'd really like to sign Aaron Colvin. Former Sooner and Oklahoma native. Always liked the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NcFinest9erFan Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Richard Sherman tells @knbrmurph he will wear #25 for #49ers after having a talk with Jimmie Ward. "We had a good conversation and he's going to give me my number, and that's cool and a testament to him." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 As long as he is close to being his old self, we probably got the best value from any CB signing. I don't like going after Shead even though he has experience in the scheme. Why not someone like Desir instead? Not like he is going to be too expensive.
