Anquan Boldin went through OTAs and last week’s minicamp as if he needs to bust his ass to impress the coaches, even though he led the team in receiving yards last year and could break into the top 20 all-time in yards with a solid 2014. That’s Boldin. Forget compression gear; Boldin wears his jersey and a pair […]
It took two months for this to get settled — wait, that’s a bad choice of words because settling usually implies that money changed hands. Miami-Dade PO Ed Griffith makes clear to me on Kaep & others: “The case was not dropped. There was never a case. It was an investigation.” — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) […]
I advised the 49ers to sign him in 2012. Two years later, he’s on his way back to the Bay. Today the San Francisco 49ers added a receiver who went for 1,000 yards in 2010, 2011 and 2012, and all it took was a mid-round pick. Filed to ESPN: 49ers trading a conditoonal 2015 4th-round […]

Not after a $2 million salary escalator was voided when he skipped a voluntary offseason workout. If that wasn’t painful enough, Brown suffered a pretty awful-sounding injury in New Orleans. “I ended up tearing the cartilage in […]
At least now there’s no ambiguity. Generally fans of a team are supposed to root for the team that makes it further from their own division or conference, but there’s no way it’ll happen in this case. The Seattle Seahawks did what they needed to do today in their 23-17 win over the San Francisco […]
The Seattle Seahawks only allowed 20 total touchdowns in 16 games (16 passing, 4 rushing), and their defense does not seem to have any glaring flaws. While Pete Carroll may be content with his Death Star of a defense, there is always a thermal exhaust port, hidden in a seemingly negligible trench, waiting to be […]
Here’s what we know about Quinton Patton: He was really productive in college. Jim Harbaugh loves him. He wears a grill both on and off the field. He’s generous with his gummy worms. As for what he’ll do on the field as the San Francisco 49ers’ No. 3 receiver, it’s a learning process for everyone. […]
