When was the last time we "overpaid" for a free agent that was past his prime and over the hill?

Iupati is 27 and just played in 15 games this season, don't act like we would be signing Deion Sanders right now to a 7 year deal.

To quote you, please see previous post above. (Don't care which post, just pick one.)

Jason Hatcher. Last year.

NFL Pro Bowl odds and ends: Mike Iupati can run block, but will that end up boosting his price too high? - Niners Nation

Why isn't the team that drafted him, developed him, and knows him best not sure if they are going to make him an offer?

What do you guys know that the SF FO doesn't know?

Please share, I want to know too.

they do not want to overpay him, as another team most likely will. it's that simple.

That is the case with most free agents that get let go.

Like I said, 49ers are limited in cap space, Gore, Davis and Crabtree might be casualties too.

Let's just get to the point, nothing you say will change my mind and vice-versa so I don't want or need to share anything, because it is pointless

With all of the talk around us needing safety help and trust me I am firmly on that bandwagon. Did everyone forget that we picked up Duke Ihenacho last year and then he got hurt, I remember him being pretty good and could with Phillip Thomas be a decent safety tandom, as I believe that we are much more in desperate need of yournger cheaper more effective o-line as well as pass rush help.

That duo wouldn't inspire much confidence IMO. And they're both better suited for strong safety. We can do a lot better and we need to.

we limped into this past season with a "everything needs to go right for this group to be serviceable" secondary.

I want FS addressed with a bonafide NFL caliber starter. not a rookie, not a guy who may rebound, not a guy who takes a vet min contract.

imo the NFL is changing. FS is vital now. SS is very important. elite corners are luxuries which i would love to have, but if you give me an elite FS and a solid SS, i can mask average corners with a decent pass rush and good cover line backers.

yeshh .. i feel like i just described the seahawks D sans the elite corners.

the idea that a great pass rush masks a weak secondary is not necessarily true in today's offensive friendly NFL. even with a good pass rush, QBs/OCs are finding ways to create more time and take the top off.
