Rumor: Nate Clements to 49ers.

No link yet.

The rumor here at work is $24 million signing bonus

Email from Geoff Hobson:
Clements is gone to san fran for $23 M to sign - a deal the Bengals could have done if they cut the few guys who do play defense.

Apparently Geoff Hobson writes for Bengals.com, so if this email was actually written, he is in position to have knowledge of such a deal.

Well there you go

24 mill????
Sh*t. The market is going to be worse than thought. That smokes Champ's deal.

I have no idea who that guy is GTripp, but that sounds about right.

Smoot is the best option for us. And this might be a blessing in disguise because he will be much cheaper than any of the CBs out there. Also if we spend less on CBs we might have more room, which equates to a higher possibility of resigning dock.

24 mill. to sign???!!??! man we had no chance to get him. The f-n redonkulous!

At this point, Smoot is the best available.

LOL what a joke, they can have him for that price.

He's no Champ, not even close.

These contracts are going to be insane... buckle up.
