edge rusher position all season Joe Montana Color Rush Jersey , but it sounds like their best chance at a serious upgrade was never going to materialize. General manager John Lynch made an appearance on 95.7 The Game Tuesday morning, and he suggested the 49ers offered more than the Chicago Bears did for Khalil Mack.Lynch was talking about the need for an upgrade at edge rusher, and was asked about the Mack trade. He said, “I continue to think we offered a better deal than Chicago.” He did not go into further detail, but that would suggest the 49ers offered at least two first round picks to the Raiders.Back in September, the Bears gave up first-round picks in 2019 and 2020, a third-round pick in 2020 and a sixth-round pick in 2019 to acquire Mack, a 2020 second round pick https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Deion-Sanders-Jersey , and a conditional fifth-round pick in 2020. The Bears then signed Mack to a six-year, $141 million deal that made him the highest paid defensive player in NFL history.In getting turned down by the Raiders, Lynch said it led him to wonder if the 49ers were ever actually in consideration. If what Lynch said about the offer is true, it is entirely possible the Raiders simply had no interest in dealing him to their Bay Are rivals, and instead used their offer to boost the Bears offer (if it needed boosting).Fans have given Lynch grief for not acquiring some of the big names that have been dealt this year. In this instance, it would appear the 49ers tried but might not have had any actual chance. That being said, if the 49ers end up with a top five pick, Lynch made it sound like edge rusher would be a high priority. He acknowledged the need for more of a presence Roger Craig Jersey , and an unexpectedly high pick int he 2019 draft could provide an opportunity for that kind of game-changing player. SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Richard Sherman walked into what used to be enemy territory at the home of the San Francisco 49ers decked out in a red suit to match his new team after switching sides from Seattle in this fierce NFC West rivalry.Sherman still must wait a bit to put on a red 49ers jersey, but he vows it will be sooner than some people expected considering he is coming off surgery on his right Achilles tendon that ended his final season with the Seahawks and led to his release earlier this month.Sherman said he is already back on the treadmill following that surgery and another operation to repair bone spurs in his left heel and hopes to be back on the field by May or June and at full speed by the starting of training camp this summer.“There are some people that are cut from a different cloth and built from different things and I think I’m one of those people,” Sherman said Tuesday. “I look forward to showing people that you can come back better from things. … I look forward to coming back better than ever. I’ve got a lot of things to show a few people.”Sherman showed plenty on the field during his seven years in Seattle, where he developed from an overlooked fifth-round pick out of Stanford into the prototypical lockdown cornerback who shut down opposing receivers and let them know about it with his colorful trash talk.Sherman showed similar skills defending the three-year contract he negotiated himself with the 49ers. The deal is worth up to $39 million but much of it is tied to incentives for playing time and awards and little is guaranteed, according to Pro Football Talk. That led to criticism from players like Joe Thomas, former executives like Joe Banner and some in the media.Sherman got a $3 million signing bonus, a $2 million salary for 2018 and a $2 million bonus if he passes a physical before Nov. 11. The rest of his salary is tied to per-game active roster bonuses and rewards for being named to the Pro Bowl or All-Pro teams.If he gets those honors and plays at least 90 percent of the defensive snaps and all 16 games this season Ronnie Lott Color Rush Jersey , Sherman could make $13 million this year, more than he was due to make with no guaranteed money in the final year of his deal with the Seahawks.“The biggest misconception is that it’s a bad deal,” he said. “If you’re comparing it to my last deal in Seattle, I had no money guaranteed. … I’m coming off a ruptured Achilles, what do I have? What security do I have there? With this deal, I get $5 million guaranteed, which is half of my other contract. I get the ability to make more than I could have done whether I played at an All-Pro level or not in Seattle. And that’s really all that I wanted. I play at the level that I’m capable of. I feel security in the upcoming years and I felt comfortable with that. I’m great with that.”Sherman said it was important to him to negotiate his own deal and he studied other cornerback contracts before the 5 hours of negotiations with 49ers cap specialist Paraag Marathe and general manager John Lynch.Sherman pointed out that many of the contracts negotiated each offseason by certified agents come with lofty sticker prices that players never get to see because of few guarantees.He said he has already heard from other players interested in doing their own deals in the future and expects more to come.“I think these agents sometimes benefit from relationships. `Oh, I know this GM. We’ve had dealings with for years.’ They really don’t have to do a ton of work. `Hey https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Jerry-Rice-Jersey , I called this guy. How much are you willing to give him? Oh, $5 million? OK. I’ll convince him that that’s good enough,'” Sherman said. “Instead of guys being able to control their own destiny, being in control of their own finances and I think it goes back to just educating our players in general on their own finances and being in control of your own life. I think more of our players are.”
