Rice released
 

Jerry Rice was released by the Seahawks today but sayd he wants to play at least another year. With our problems at WR what are your thoughts on maybe bringing him in for a year. I was thinking if we can get him for the vet. minimum he might not be bad to bring in for a year until we can get another big time guy or even to help develop a rookie.

Not remotly interested.

Please retire. Nothing worse than watching a former great player become an embarresment.

Re: Rice released
 

Retire, and take back some yards so mitchell ends up with the most all purpose yards.

In an interview earlier this year, he seemed to think he'd re-up with the Niners for a farewell year.

Re: Rice released
 

Rice would be a good wr's Coach but not a good player. so, no

Re: Rice released
 

I'd take Rice as a player - he's not your deep threat, but get the ball near him and it's a catch. I'd pay him not much more than league minimum though.

Re: Rice released
 

5 years ago I would have said yes.

Re: Rice released
 

he was brought to seattle basically to be a player-coach and help those butterfingered wr's learn to concentrate.....however, we all know how that ended up working out. yeah, so no way i say.

Re: Rice released
 

Jerry Rice is a shadow of his former self and really should not be able to make a team as anything more than the 4th WR. However, when I look at the 49ers roster, I wonder if he couldn't go there and be their #1 or #2 guy next year.

only problem being, how can the 49ers afford the cap space for another minimum wage contract?

Please Jerry have a retirement party and get on with your life......
