Think we may target Taylor Mays? I'm not his biggestbfan but he would be great depth... Sadly hes going cost more than "depth"

Seeing as how he never shows up against NFC East opponents I would be fine with it

Don't worry he'll be injured for the season by week 3.

Terrance Knighton or Dan Williams come on down!!!

@JaysonBraddock BREAKING NEWS: 49ers have put Colin Kaepernick on the trading block. Taking offers.

@JaysonBraddock
The Eagles are confirmed as one of the two teams in talks and an unnamed NFC team as the other. (Colin Kaepernick trade)

Got this from a post on ES.

CK hasn't done much recently on the field and does big splashes with media -- but at least he's been healthy & knows how to slide.. Not my ideal QB, but at least I wonder if he'd be better than RG3. RG3 seems to attract negativity, media mishaps, injuries, and clashes with coaches -- all of which I'd rather without...

Would be horrible if the Eagles got him, somehow I'd be afraid they'd make it work.

He's a very good fit for the Eagles, IMO. I wonder if the 49'ers would want Foles as part of a trade with the Eagles.

Baalke on Kaepernick trade rumor: 'He is not going anywhere’

Did you know that Chris Baker and Terrance Knighton are literally best friends? Chris went to a Broncos playoff game to support Terrance. Here's what Terrance had to say about that per 24/7 Sports:

“That’s my best friend,” Knighton told denverbroncos.com before the game. “We grew up together our whole lives. He just said he wanted to come and see a game and support me.”

“We’re family. I don’t see it as a guy from another team in the stands watching. I just see that family’s watching,” Knighton said. “He’s up there with my mom. She’s known him since he was born. I’m just looking forward to seeing him.”

So Big Swaggy is recruiting Pot Roast to the Skins. This fits well with my Master Plan to have an all-world nickname team here in D.C.

Knighton would be huge

Don't know much about him, but it appears he is a solid player and a "true" nose tackle at 335 pounds.

Unlike others, I have no problem with the 3-4 and think in the modern, pass-happy NFL the flexibility of 4 LB's is the better base D. At the same time, you still have to stop the run, and we simply have not had a nose tackle who clog the middle. I liked Cofield, but he was not a plugger. I think Baker is developing into that (at 325 lbs), but Knighton seems to be that already. Plus, having a rotation of Knighton and Baker would also give us some real flexibility in short-yardage and goal line situations.

Knighton may be a bit expensive (~4.0M/year) but, if he is what he seems to be, I would be okay with him.

So, with McCourty gone, who is left at safety? To me, this is our biggest FA need, even more than RT.

Is Searcy (SS, Buffalo) worth his likely cost?
What about R. Moore from Denver?

It looks like there are a lot of "Just-A-Guy's" out there. Yes, most anyone would be an upgrade but don't think it wise to commit any big money to average joe's just b/c we are desperate.

Dallas OT Jeremy Parnell to Jags.

So two of our top three gone (Newton, Parnell). I am thinking it's Baluga or no one. I think Baluga is going to cost top dollar but, if we can make it a long term deal, it would be worth it to have bookends like T.Williams/Baluga for the next three years (at least). Also, Baluga can swing to LT if Williams gets hurt.

Not thrilled with a Baluga signing, but not opposed either. He's young and good. It lets Moses develop and be ready to step in.

We'll see.
