With the 49ers making a blockbuster trade Thursday night to get Christian McCaffrey, I think it\u2019s time to look at 2023 again.<\/p>\n
The 49ers now have 33 players signed for 2023, accounting for $199,386,229, plus $17,085,988 in dead money, for a total cap commitment of $216,472,217, leaving them $8,527,783 under a projected $225 million cap, but with 51 players signed, the 49ers would be $4,972,217 over that $225 million cap.<\/p>\n
Below are the 33 players, and their current cap numbers for 2023.<\/p>\n
Now let\u2019s look at the 49ers current pending free agents for the 2023 offseason.<\/p>\n
Now, let\u2019s look at the teams\u2019 pending free agents.<\/p>\n
UFA:<\/strong><\/p>\n RB Jeff Wilson Jr. RFA:<\/strong><\/p>\n LT Colton McKivitz ERFA:<\/strong><\/p>\n WR Jauan Jennings The 49ers would likely tender all 6 of their RFAs & ERFAs, which would be $2.629 million for Givens, & Flannigan-Fowles, and $2.745 million for McKivitz, while Jennings, Hance, & Robinson would get the $940,000 tender as ERFAs.<\/p>\n That would be a total of $10.823 million, which would put the 49ers $2,295,217 over the $225 million salary cap, but that\u2019s with 39 players signed, with 51 signed, they\u2019d be $11,295,217 over the cap, but this doesn\u2019t include potential cap credits, which I went over yesterday<\/a>, which would be a total of $3,716,466, which would put the team the $1,421,249 under with 39 players signed, and $7,578,751 over with 51 players signed.<\/p>\n Now, the 49ers will need to make cap room, with the top candidates below, with savings.<\/p>\n RB Christian McCaffrey – $8.576 million max, $7,146,666 minimum<\/p>\n TE George Kittle \u2013 $8.456 million max, $7,927,500 minimum<\/p>\n LT Trent Williams \u2013 $14.588 million max, $13,676,250 minimum<\/p>\n DT Arik Armstead \u2013 $11.78 million max, $11,043,750 minimum<\/p>\n MLB Fred Warner \u2013 $9.476 million max, $8,883,750 minimum<\/p>\n But don\u2019t worry, the 49ers will have cap room to try & re-sign some of the likes of running backs Jeff Wilson Jr., & Tevin Coleman, center Jake Brendel, right guard Daniel Brunskill, defensive ends Samson Ebukam, & Charles Omenihu, nose tackle Hassan Ridgeway, strongside linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, cornerback Emmanuel Moseley, & free safeties Jimmie Ward, and Tashaun Gipson Sr.<\/p>\n
