Earlier this month <\/a>I went over what we can expect Brandon Aiyuk, & Javon Kinlaw\u2019s 5th<\/sup>-year options could look like, with them added to 2024<\/a>, so today let\u2019s look go back to 2024 now that we know Dre Greenlaw, & Mitch Wishnowsky\u2019s contract details.<\/p>\n

Right now, the 49ers have 26 players signed for 2024, accounting for $191,083,621, along with $819,000 in projected dead money from Oren Burks, giving them a total commitment of $191,902,621, leaving them $64,097,379 under a projected $256 million cap, but that\u2019s with just 26 players signed, so when you add in enough for 51 players, they\u2019d be $44,222,379 under a projected $256 million cap.<\/p>\n

Below are the 26 players currently signed for 2024, with their cap numbers.<\/p>\n

  1. WR 19 Deebo Samuel(2025)- $28,572,000<\/li>\n

  21. RB 25 Elijah Mitchell(2024)- $1,100,893<\/li>\n
  22. CB 24 Samuel Womack III(2025)- $1,055,831<\/li>\n
  23. LG 63 Nick Zakelj(2025)- $1,032,590<\/li>\n
  24. NT 93 Kalia Davis(2025)- $1,018,003<\/li>\n
  25. QB 13 Brock Purdy(2025)- $1,004,253<\/li>\n
  26. RB 24 Jordan Mason(2024)- $988,334<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    As I said in my article about Aiyuk, & Kinlaw\u2019s 5th<\/sup>-year options, I don\u2019t expect either to hit the Pro Bowl tier, just because it\u2019s so loaded in the NFC for both WR & DT.<\/p>\n

    For Kinlaw, you have the likes of Aaron Donald(Rams), Leonard Williams(Giants), Vita Vea(Buccaneers), Jonathan Allen(Commanders), Kenny Clark(Packers), Grady Jarrett(Falcons), & Fletcher Cox(Eagles), so it\u2019s unlikely Kinlaw makes the pro bowl.<\/p>\n

    As for Aiyuk\u2019s competition for the pro bowl, you have his teammate & friend Deebo Samuel, plus the likes of A.J. Brown(Eagles), Cooper Kupp(Rams), D.K. Metcalf(Seahawks), Terry McLaurin(Commanders), Tyler Lockett(Seahawks), & D.J. Moore(Panthers) to compete with, and it\u2019s hard to imagine both Deebo & Aiyuk being selected, but I wouldn\u2019t be one to complain,.<\/p>\n

    So, with that all said, I expect Aiyuk to hit the playtime tier, which would give him a $13.587 million 5th<\/sup>-year option, which of course becomes fully guaranteed once exercised, and as for Kinlaw, I expect him to get the basic tier, which would be $9.652 million, again fully guaranteed, but that\u2019s a great number for Kinlaw, especially if he breaks out this season.<\/p>\n

    So, if we add in both of these numbers, the 49ers projected salary cap room goes to $40,858,379 with 28 players signed, but with the top 51 rule, they\u2019d have $23,386,379, but of course this doesn\u2019t include any 2023 draft picks, or 2024 draft picks, as it\u2019s way too early, and hard to project those.<\/p>\n

    If the 49ers are up against the cap in 2024, they have options to create cap room, as they could extend the likes of Charvarius Ward($9.148 million saved), and Arik Armstead($12.96 million saved).<\/p>\n

    Of course, the 49ers would likely try to lock up Aiyuk, & Kinlaw before 2024 comes along, if both play good to great, plus you have Nick Bosa, who will get a new deal next offseason, and the 49ers should be able to get him to have a cap number in the $14 million range for 2024, with the higher cap hits hitting in 2025, & beyond, which would give the 49ers $26,858,379 with 29 players signed, & $9,368,379 with 51 players signed, but again this doesn\u2019t include draft picks, or potential extensions, or restructures.<\/p>\n

    Now, if for some reason Kinlaw can hit the playtime tier, that would be an extra $1.5 million, meaning their cap room would go down to $25,358,379 with 29 players signed, & $7,868,379 with 51 players signed.<\/p>\n

    There you have it, another look at 2024, when taking into account Brandon Aiyuk, & Javon Kinlaw\u2019s projected 5th<\/sup>-year options, along with Dre Greenlaw, & Mitch Wishnowsky\u2019s new deals.<\/p>\n
