9ers are paying a failed draft pick almost 5 mil lol
we still have like 40 mill in cap. 1 year contract and he was ranked 30 out of what? 64 guards not including part timers. I’d say it’s a low risk high reward situation
9ers need all the OL help they can find. Miswell throw short term contracts at it and c if anyone sticks
