    I'm sure the players aren't necessarily thrilled but I love the slotted contract values associated with their draft position. In the old days it was like the wild wild west - agents / players / parents running amuck. Teams had day 3 draft choices holding out and were never sure when their top choices would be available. Makes it hard to get production out of a player's 1st season when they come in late to camp as a rookie, and the general managers must have really hated those contract negotiations AND not knowing how the cap would be affected until the last minute.

    I don't miss it at all . . . . . . . . . . .

      Unless your last name is Bosa of course . . . . . . .

        dude was never about this team and paying him money he didn't deserved didn't do anything to change that...but that was the old way of doing things, this'll be the last year we have to see him in bolts...what's the over under on the number of games he'll be in uniform? I don't gamble but take the under whatever that number is, LOL

          I get the frustration, but not the bashing.

          Is the idea supposed to be that Joey Bosa fakes injuries or something ?

          I see a player who can help us.

          Give him a healthy season, and pride will fuel him to approach his brothers accomplishments.

Ok maybe I’m grasping at straws here, but as far as I know all of his injuries over the years have been of the ‘soft tissue’ variety. So theoretically, if anyone can help, it should be Ben Herbert.
            Lol i said exactly that before the start of last season. I hope I just missed it by one year, as with the entire Year Of The Flip.

              I haven't checked the side by side but his brother has been injured a shit-ton too, per my casual impression.

                Also signed the 21 undrafted free agents...

                The DJ Chark numbers are official - can make $2.9m with incentives. So not bad, under $3m

                Chargers easily could still have about $10m of net cap space if they save about $10m for the in-season injured reserve and practice squad.

                  The more they are getting paid, they more they negotiate about how it's paid to them.

                    then how do you explain colson? he's a third rounder and he signed already before our 4rth rounder...

                      Do the Niners still need an Edge rusher for $8m

                      Just hope Bosa is healthy - if not, its his last year with the team.

                        It seems the second rounders are some of the last too sign. First rounders are easy as they are slotted. And though second rounders are also slotted - some teams guarantee the salaries at the top of the second more than other. McConkey was the 35th player taken - so he probably will get a fully guaranteed deal - just not the signing bonus.

                          All the rookies will be signed, and shortly at that. There is zero point or cause for any hand wringing.
