49ers release Anthony Brown

[endersdragon]

Fans here swore he was legit.

No one signed him in free agency. Steelers and 49ers brought him in for a look and immediately passed.

Got any better ideas? We need a new depth guy if nothing else. We have 3 solid starters still, but looking pretty slim behind them

Unfortunately, if we were to sign a guy off the street it’d be hard to imagine Brown wouldn’t be the guy.

You will be able to spot the Cowboys fans who dont know of any other NFL in players in this thread.

Just look for the posts saying we should bring him back with Diggs hurt

 

[starfan1]

Please no I was ecstatic when he left. We can get his production from those here. unless your putting him on the practice squad in preparation for a possible hit to another CB

Find a player elsewhere that isnt coming off an achilles tear late in the season

Who? There's a bunch of always scrubs and even older has-beens.

OR, they saw him practice, realized he can't cover any of their WRs, saw Diggs got hurt, released knowing he'd end up back in Dallas and now will be targeted 40 times in the up coming match up.

This is a no brainer. A serviceable player who knows the system.

Exactly. Cheap, knows the system and would be good depth. I agree, this is a no brainer.

What do you think Brown is? On top of that he is coming off an injury that kills CB's careers

 

[8FOR!3]

I'd sign Brown. Gilmore/Bland/Lewis/Brown/Noah. Jeez, but what do you do

 

[Big_D]

If they hung on another half hour, they probably could've gotten a pick.

Someone who at least knows the system that can go out for a few players here or there.

 

[plymkr]

Is Brown a FA or did he sign with the Steelers?

Its not rocket science. Anyone they would sign would be fine in a week or two. CB's have come in and played in less time before.

I doubt they even bother signing anyone. The top 3 is set, Mukuamu is probably the #4, and they have Igbinoghene as the #5. When players come off of IR in a couple weeks they probably wont have room for any other CB's. They probably would have cut Igbinoghene

Steelers cut him before he went to SF

 

[jwooten15]

If I wanted to watch CBs get torched, I’d rather just have kept Kelvin Joseph. Anthony Brown is a hard no.

Gotcha, thanks

I’d be for it if not for his horrible injury..

Achilles injury might be worse than a knee. If we're looking at street free agents, maybe bring in Casey Hayward in for a workout. Played under McCarthy/Joe Whitt Jr. for a few years in GB
