JamesMadisonSkins Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Ended with "build through the draft" ... anyone else googling the 2017 49ers free agent class? He said it's a very similar situation, then said they'd be building through the draft and supplementing in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 We got a whole lot of nothing out of that. And that is exactly what you should expect from a well run organization. Peters is an impressive person. Clearly not a rah rah guy. So I would think they go rah rah with the head coach. Or maybe I am reading too much into it.

FrFan Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) Great interview Adam Peters showed, intelligence, wisdom, commitment, knowledge, and motivation. I hope next Friday virtual interview will end up with a virtual contract Edited January 16 by FrFan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander202 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 could see us shopping a bit to do what SF and Eagles done which is like trade a 6th for a starting one year quality player . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Build through the draft was certainly a decisive answer. I beat he still sits there tonight thinking holy **** I’ve got 100mil to work with in free agency 😂 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesMadisonSkins Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 This is a bit new to me on the HC front - we can virtually interview Ben Johnson, but we cannot officially hire or announce a hire until after (obviously) an in-person interview, and the Lions elimination from the playoffs. What risk is there, then, to wait this out until those two things can occur? If Johnson doesn't give us a handshake agreement and the Lions go to the Super Bowl ... and then he doesn't actually come on as a HC, that would keep us out of the race for several other options yeah? This happened with Bieniemy last year but I think that was more of an unexpected move for us. Just kind of curious what the implications are to waiting on someone making a deep playoff run. The same could be said for Slowik and McDaniel, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know I get goofed on some for pimping Keim. But again who said the other day "leadership" is more important to this group than scheme -- of course Keim. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesMadisonSkins Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) Supplement through free agency would be a smart answer either way, but there's a difference between supplementing when you go into an off-season with $20-30m in cap space, and supplementing when you have $80-90m in cap space. I have to think the answer can be somewhere in the middle. We have to fill about 14-20 roster spots to make the Final 53. So clearly we have to add more than just draft picks. In a normal year I'd say yeah, clearly, add 4-5 FAs to supplement and then add 8-10 through the draft and UDFA cycle. But given we have a lot of roster spots to fill, I wonder if "supplementing through FA" means maybe 1-2 impact signings and a bunch of 1-2 year deals to plug some roster holes while we buy time and draft picks to build around. Of course, we could just do a bunch of 1 year deals and roll some of that cap space into next year. This is a multiple year restructuring of the roster. But I think some things will need to be prioritized in FA ... like finding a decent LB and ensuring your OL isn't a piece of swiss cheese heading into the draft.

Est.1974 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I wouldn’t necessarily hang too much on the draft/free agency comment just yet given we have great resource in both areas this offseason. However, the key move is clearly the #2 pick. I mean, if you want to build through the draft for 2 or 3 season then that pick has serious value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
