Depends on what you're paying. Also, the point of the rookie QB contract is to make investments you can't make with a veteran QB contract. Either AR is the answer and we're approaching the end of the financial flexibility his rookie contract provides, or he's not and the Colts will have a new rookie QB contract soon. Either way, now is the time to make what might otherwise not be a prudent cap investment. That said, I doubt the 49ers regret the Warner contract. Warner is better than Baun, but if Baun continues to play at the level he played this year, it's not by much.

Ballard wanted to draft Fields instead of getting Wentz. I’d be ok with it.

Apparently Holland might be a headcase. He certainly thinks he's the top dog.

To me, if the draft is not strong in a certain position, but it's a big need for your team, that's when you go after a free agent.

I am hearing this draft is weak in a lot of positions. TE and RB are deep. I think I heard one side of the line was deep, too. QB is as weak as it has been in a while, likely due to the COVID eligibility rules, which allowed older guys to take the spots this group of seniors would have gotten in any other era.

My approach would be to double down. Let's say that Ballard and team decide that safety is biggest area of need on the roster...then draft one and sign in free agency.

Ballard really screwed up the salary cap situation by running it back with a bunch of scrubs this past season. He had flexibility to really improve the team & completely failed.

This site gets dead in the offseason, but the combine is approaching, and then free agency and the draft.
