Golden Nuggets: Like I said, boring.

by James Brady on Mar 6, 2010 3:00 AM PST in 49ers Links

Morning everyone, hope you're all doing good, even after a rather boring day of free agency. Oddly enough, I took part in the thread all day yesterday, but I didn't pay much attention because it was pretty obvious the 49ers weren't going to make any big moves. I guess that's for the better, the team has a lot of young talent they need to resign and that is definitely the priority. So I'm sitting here, waiting for Midnight so more links could come up.. my dilemma currently is whether I should wash a bowl and spoon, or try and eat Cornflakes out of a cup with a knife. I'll let you guys know how it turned out. Anyway, I'm going to go ahead and just get to your links. Enjoy, folks.

The 49ers are visiting with QB David Carr... which could spell bad news for QB Shaun Hill. Also, this guy is awful. Really all I have to say on the matter. (SacBee.com)

To add to that: David Carr..... really? Couldn't have said it better myself. (SFGate.com)

Patrick Willis' comments on Twitter do seem a bit out of character. Either way, I agree with him. (PressDemocrat.com)

Battle is scheduled to visit with the Steelers--good for him. (PressDemocrat.com)

David Baas faces uncertainty as a RFA. (PressDemocrat.com)

Is it too early to write off the Cards? Nope, I did that when Warner retired. (ESPN.com)

i think its just copies of his tweets

But Im having a hard time beleving that he said that. He just doesnt say things like that. I better Willis response would be something about putting his faith in the organization and they will continue to grow.

Whooooooops.

See below for explanation. I was… very tired.

And then God created Saturn.. And he liked it, so he put a ring on it.

Three things for today

Battle-I’ll be glad for him if he signs somewhere. He may have had more than one season that would be considered bad, but one stood out like a sore thumb, which unfortuately was likely his last one with us. But I think he did more good than bad while he was here. He deserves a shot with a willing team. I just hope he doesn’t do what happens so often; all of a sudden become a star with whomever it is and we’ll hear whinings about why we didn’t keep him. We are all brilliant when it comes to afterthoughts!

Baas-His future is indeed uncertain, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. At best case he gets a multi-year deal with another team (we’re not matching anything.) At worst he becomes a UFA (I really don’t think he’d be dumb enough to take that route.) We’ll know by April 21st what happens with him, for anyone bored enough to find out. My surmise is he stays.

Cards-They’re the fire sale of the off this season. I hope they’ve got something good up their sleeves, or we could see them going from NFC Championship contenders to last pl. . .ok with the Rams in your division there’s always hope.

I am going to be pissed if Hill gets cut for Carr. Why? Let’s go back to the 2008 season. Niners vs Cards.
Do you all remember that Shaun Hill scramble for a first down? I think it was Singletary’s 2nd or 3rd game as a coach. QB draw play, runs up the left sideline, helmet ripped off. The passion and desire for those extra yards on Hill’s face. He gets it, kneels, and motions for the 1st. Most epic play I have ever seen.
