Report: 49ers were interested in signing Eric Reid to multi-year deal this week Fooch’s update No. 2: Trotter tweeted that the 49ers told him it was only a one-year offer.Fooch’s update: Matt Barrows a different piece of information. This arrived after Trotter reported the multi-year deal.The Carolina Panthers signed Eric Reid on Thursday
Womens Trent Taylor Jersey , bringing in the safety on a one-year deal. He will slot in as Carolina’s starting strong safety following the decision to move Da’Norris Searcy to the injured reserve list.It turns out, they might not have been the only team interested in signing Reid. NFL Media reporter Jim Trotter tweeted that the 49ers made a run at Reid this week, with hopes of signing him to a multi-year deal.This is intriguing, to say the least. Matt Maiocco is reporting that the 49ers told Eric Reid early on that Adrian Colbert and Jaquiski Tartt were their safeties for 2018 and it have to be a one-year deal at backup money if anything was done. This squares with what Kyle Shanahan said back in August when asked about the team reportedly wanting him back on a one-year minimum deal.Reid’s decision to take a one-year deal over a potential multi-year deal could fall under betting on himself to land a bigger deal next year. And give how multi-year deals actually work in the NFL, he might have decided that a 49ers deal (if offered) would lock him in without an opportunity to earn what he believes to be his true worth.What’s most interesting for 49ers fans is what this means of the safety position. Were the 49ers looking for someone to fill in while Jaquiski Tartt and/or Adrian Colbert are hurt, and then go back to the bench? Or is there something else in mind with that kind of potential offer? Now we’re starting to have some fun"In this 7-round mock draft by CBS, we see the San Francisco 49ers trade not one, but two of their former first round draft picks. Let’s get right into it, starting with the first trade.Trade!The 49ers ship Solomon Thomas to the Miami Dolphins for free safety Reshad Jones. A player-for-player deal. Perfect. Jones is a really good player. He’s not flashy, but he’s sound. That’s what the defense needs. Jones is 33, though. So you’re not only punting on Jones but you’re not getting the future at safety
Jimmie Ward Jersey , more of a holdover. Here’s why the trade would never happen. Jones is expensive. This isn’t a “the Niners have plenty of cap space so it’s fine” situation. Jones has a salary cap number over $17 million in 2019. The next two years are at $14 and $15 million. Eh, no thanks.First three picksThe 49ers take Nick Bosa at number two. Then at 36 they take Deebo Samuel. You already know about Bosa. If you missed us breaking down Samuel, you can read that here. Samuel is one of the better route runners in the draft. He’s also terrific after the catch and when the ball is in the air. It’s easy to see why Kyle Shanahan would gravitate towards him.In the third round the team took Clemson CB Trayvon Mullen.Mullen has the pedigree, he’s a lengthy corner that runs well. As far as on the field, I’m not so sure he’s what the 49ers are looking for. He doesn’t take the ball away. Mullen 41 times in 2018 and didn’t have a single interception while breaking up two passes. He never gave up a touchdown, so there’s that. When you watch Mullen, there isn’t a trait he does that makes you go “I want him.”Trade!!The 49ers ship Arik Armstead, who’s playing on the fifth-year option, to the New England Patriots in their annual trade hookup for fourth and seventh-round picks. In this situation, I may have used that extra fourth to move up for another player, depending on if someone fell.Day three picksWith their remaining picks
Womens Richard Sherman Jersey , the 49ers double down on WR, grab a LB, DT, guard, and a punter.WR Mecole Hardman, Georgia LB Tre Watson, Maryland DT Chris Slayton, SyracuseOG Nate Herbig, StanfordP Mitch Wishnowsky, UtahHardman is fast. He ran a 4.33 40-yard dash at the combine. He also has only been playing receiver for a couple of years. So this would be a developmental experience. Here’s the writers take on the rest of the picks.
