Not stirring the pot, but he gets one last jab in there. Sort of like when I concede a point to my wife during an argument and directly follow it with a "but"......
That being said, he's entitled. Because I think despite this quote being ridiculous that his "Player friends" knew what a GM...
Just curious and I realize this is kicking a bee's nest, but why is it when there is a "bad" move we scream about Graves, but when one makes sense to the fans do we congratulate the head coach?
Who gives Q his information? I am not connected, but I have only heard of 2-4 team even willing to make an offer, not half of the league. Sure, they'd take him, but if they were so willing to "go get him" why did so few make an actual proposal?
Love the move, may even be able to push Larry at center. The open roster spot is interesting. I would assume a FB would come in to replace Green, but no announcement yet.....
LMAO I think it is funny he had to qualify it as NOT being a Drew idea. It is like he is implying that the rest of his antics up until this point WAS Drew's idea........
The only major things he could announce would be 1)something from his personal life 2) He is retiring....... everything else would simply be restating what we already know. Sando said it the best when he said this would be a good measurement to see what DD feels is "important" and if anything he...
I think too often we think "should have been done by X", but how often do we look at other teams and when/how they extend players. This deal is not slow by any stretch of the imagination compared to other players. Are the Niners slow because Staley was extanded at the same time as Wilson? Their...
This all reminds me of Pat Riley's "Disease of Me" bullet points in Michael Lombardi's article.

Sound like any players recently?
I understand that $ could be spent elsewhere, but the truth is that money is not keeping the team from making any moves they want IMO. And yet have I heard of a move they just couldn't do because of cap space other than Boldin, and that has more to do with who is in line in front of him...
I know a large population on this board think he is as good as gone, but I have always seen players take cash in hand over the promise of a big payday tomorrow. So if the numbers are close, I still see no reason Dansby won't resign. To me it is just aligning the values Dansby and the team see...
The money he makes over Palko is less than 0.5% of the cap, and only 75K over veteran minimum. It is like not paying for insurance because you have never been in an accident before. And you are right, talent is irrelevant. But QB is one position I would pay a small amount more and hope he never...
I assume the coaching staff sees the difference in talent worth an extra $415K. I have to say that is a small "premium" to pay. Heck, our third RB makes a cool million, our backup, underachieving DT counts 1.7 million, and our long snapper makes 845K. I guess there is worse fat on this roster...
Minimum Salary for an 8 year player is 730K, so we only gave him a 9-10% bump over the minimum. Not exactly breaking the bank to encourage him to stay instead of go to KC.
