Is he kinda a turd ?

Wonder if they are getting the other Bosa?

49ers getting rid of everyone it seems…

Floyd is another older vet pass rusher on the market. Dude has been extremely durable though. Hasn’t missed a game in several years. Impressive streak and always productive.

Floyd managed to play in every single regular-season game in 2024, which extended his active-game streak to 116 contests dating back to Week 1 of the 2018 season when he played for the Bears.

No idea, but he’s been reliable and productive.

Yeah he is pretty good I know, just wondering about fit I heard good and bad

It’s time to pay the Purdy

Also depends on the kind of “turd”. If it’s off the field turd, I think they can make exceptions depending on what it is. If he takes plays off and is lazy and practices like it doesn’t matter….no shot. I’ll admit I haven’t followed him closely enough to know.

…And sign the other Bosa.

Don’t do it 49ers… You will regret it. Actually give him 60 mill per season, it’s a great idea I swear. :wink:

My bigger concern is he’s not really a fit. He’s OK setting the edge at 6’6, 240, but not generally what we look for. Always kind of been a weakness of his game. So would he be a SAM for us? Seems likely, and I doubt we’d be that interested. Especially since re-signing Barnes.

That too, though apparently the offer on the table is less than $10M/year. Same with Miami. I believe it’s why he hasn’t signed yet.

Didn’t he play DE in Buffalo and SF? I honestly don’t know, but that’s how he’s listed. So he may be capable, despite not the bigger body we usually employ

I think so? But they’re OK using smaller edges than we’ve been, at least under Dan. In SF they’ve even got a name for it, the joker or rover or something like that. Basically it means “small starting edge meant to pressure the QB.”

He is the “Other” Bosa.
The injury riddled less productive Bosa.
I don’t think waiting is going to make the offers increase.

That’s the rumor. He wants to play with his brother.

According to PFT:

Floyd is a candidate to be a post-June 1 release, as that designation would allow the 49ers to save $7.95 million against the cap in 2025. Without that, the club will save only $1.48 million.

yeah but imagine Barnes paired with Floyd…be interesting.

And wants to play on grass.

that’s a non-starter for Brad. Take him off your list, boys.
