Is anyone really glad that dweebo is gone from the whiners? I hated him with a passion and seeing him cry after all the smack talk after the NFCCG made me happy. He seemed to always be a thorn in the Rams side and I'm glad he's not playing for the whiners. Yes, the Rams may still have to contend with him but at least it's not on the hated whiners.

p.s.: I really enjoyed seeing dweebo get blown up over the middle by Nick Scott in the NFCCG. When the flag came out, I was like WTF? Thankfully they picked up the flag because it was a textbook perfect play.

He was a thorn a few years ago but became a non-factor last year. I will miss his sideline sad face after dancing his way out of the tunnel to start the games. It was great to see his pain after being so cocky.

As of May 2, 2025, the latest on Brock Purdy’s contract extension with the San Francisco 49ers shows some optimism but no finalized deal. According to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini on her Scoop City podcast, the 49ers and Purdy are “closer than we think” to an agreement, with Purdy’s attendance at OTAs signaling positive engagement in negotiations. However, NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported on May 1, 2025, that the two sides are “not close,” and Purdy is unwilling to accept less than $50 million per season, suggesting he’s prepared to wait for a better offer.

Negotiations are focused on a deal likely in the $50-55 million annual average value (AAV) range, though Purdy’s camp may be pushing for closer to $60 million to match top-tier quarterbacks like Dak Prescott. The 49ers’ recent extension of George Kittle (four years, $76.4 million) indicates their willingness to secure key players, but Purdy’s deal remains unresolved, with training camp as a potential deadline to avoid further drama.

No new reports since May 2 confirm a breakthrough, and the situation could become a major storyline if it lingers into the summer.

I can’t believe how many media folk are impressed with the WFT trading for dweebo. They bought a load and bailed out the 9ers.

He didn't seem like the same player after that hit.

One of his ex-team mates probably thinks he's asking for WAAAYY too much.

It showed in his negotiations.
Ironically, that hit was on a passing play, but he complained about all of the RB carries and wanted to be paid as a WR—and have less of a load as a RB.
The 9ers capitulated and also obtained mccaffrey.

He’s done. Stick a fork in him.

Deebo is the typical type of person that I think of when I hear someone say, “Stay in your lane”.

49ers rejected trade offer for George Kittle before star tight end agreed to massive extension, per report​

George Kittle is set up to finish his career with the San Francisco 49ers after inking a four-year extension with the organization that takes him through his age-36 season. However, days before he came to terms on that extension, one club tried to pry the star tight end out of the Bay Area.

As The Athletic reports, the Niners spoke with a team interested in acquiring Kittle via trade the night before the 2025 NFL Draft began. That club even offered a second-round pick in exchange for Kittle. Despite that, the 49ers rejected the offer and, less than a week later, reached an agreement on a four-year, $76.4 million extension that made Kittle the highest-paid tight end in the NFL (on an average annual basis) and locked in his future with the organization. Before that extension, Kittle was entering the final year of his previous contract.

Given that Kittle is set to turn 32 during the 2025 season on top of his contractual status at the time of those trade talks, a second-round pick would've quite the return for general manager John Lynch. That said, the franchise clearly views him as an instrumental piece not only to reject the trade offer, but to then double down on Kittle with the extension.

While Kittle's age would tell you he's on the back-nine of his career, he's still producing as one of the league's best tight ends. He's been named an All-Pro in each of the last three seasons and a Pro Bowler over the last four. In 2024, he topped 1,000 yards receiving for the second-straight year, finishing the campaign with 78 receptions, 1,106 yards, and eight touchdowns. Those receiving yards and receiving touchdown totals were the second-best of his career.

Kittle will also prove to be a key piece of the offense as it goes through a transition after moving on from wideout Deebo Samuel earlier this offseason. His presence will ensure quarterback Brock Purdy -- who is due for an extension himself -- has a go-to target at the ready for the foreseeable future.

So Lynch is trying to placate fans after signing a 32 year old TE to a massive contract by trying to convince people there was high interest by other teams. Got it.
