Nas Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Yep and I really don't think there is a 1st round LB this year. Which is why I'm still critical of Reese for not going after Patrick Willis 2 seasons ago (I think) when he was a FA... Salary cap or not the guy is a game changer and you can always find a way to sign an impact player like him.. given our LB situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 are the panthers gonna cut beason? they pretty much have to between his injury, the worst cap situation ever and the emergence of kuechly right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 If we get a LB in free agency, I would want Philip Wheeler. He fits in zone well and should come relativity cheap We draft one in the later rounds, A.J Klein from Iowa St or Kiko Alonso from Oregon, been impressed with Sio Moore from UCONN.

fringe Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I don't think Willis was ever a FA, he got his contract extended with 2 years left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I don't think Willis was ever a FA, he got his contract extended with 2 years left Yes, Patrick Willis has never been a free agent. and was drafted 11th overall. Reese has never had a chance at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nas Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I don't think Willis was ever a FA, he got his contract extended with 2 years left Who was it from the 9ers then? Who's their other LB? I remember praying for us to land him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Bill Romanowski, maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Who was it from the 9ers then? Who's their other LB? I remember praying for us to land him... julian peterson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 julian peterson? Sounds about right... it was one of their studs.. so if it wasn't Willis, I'm thinking it was Peterson... my memory is foggy now.. I even went thru the 9ers roster to see if his name would pop up to no avail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 yeah idk peterson is the last big linebacker i can remember from the time before willis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Julian Peterson left San Fran and signed with Seattle before the 2006 season, before Reese was GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 yeah i know just figured nas was thinking of a different year cuz there really hasn't been another big niners free agent LB since peterson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 yeah i know just figured nas was thinking of a different year cuz there really hasn't been another big niners free agent LB since peterson any of their first 4 LB's would be the star of our group. Conversely, none of ours would even sniff playing time on that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 no doubt about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Sleeper F/A but LB Tavares Gooden from the Niners would be a nice cheap signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boohyah Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I'll give you that. I also think Osi's boy JaQuian Williams is going to be a good player for us the next two seasons. I just can't see the Giants taking a linebacker high in this draft. They really need some offensive line help. I'm high on Williams also, i think he steps in for Boley and will be better. Problem is, if he's established after next year, he's fodder to be gone after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 no doubt about that thats troubling when we can't develop even one bona fide starter. Especially with the rich legacy of Giants LB's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herc Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 there hasn't been a big 49er FA linebacker since peterson. it wasn't two years ago but i think that might be who you were thinking of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
