at what players have incentives that are considered NLTBE, and what the player can earn in total.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WR Deebo Samuel Sr.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He can

400;\">First off, the 49ers are projected to be $3,479,680 under a projected 2025 salary cap of $280 million, but that\u2019s with just 38 players signed, so when they have enough to fill out the top

incentives, since he\u2019s not likely to make either the Pro Bowl, or be a 1<sup>st<\/sup> or 2<sup>nd<\/sup> team All-Pro, there\u2019s also a possibility that the 49ers get back $150,000 from Deebo Samuel Sr., as he only has 1 rushing touchdown, so he has 5 games left to get to that 3 or more rushing touchdown number to earn the $150,000, he also I don\u2019t expect him to earn any of the additional $500,000 he can earn for getting to 380 or more rushing yards, as he only has 79 rushing yards as of now, but I do expect both Jake Brendel, &amp; Colton McKivitz to earn their LTBE incentives that are counting, $500,000, &amp; $620,000, respectively, so the 49ers could get an additional $650,000, for a total of $4,798,224 in likely adjustments\/credits for 2025.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, let\u2019s look at the 49ers pending free agents for 2025.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>UFA:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">QB Joshua

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TE Jake Tonges<br \/>\nTE Brayden Willis<br \/>\nRT Sebastian Gutierrez<br \/>\nDE Sam Okuayinonu<br \/>\nNT Evan Anderson<br \/>\nMLB Curtis Robinson<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>SFA:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">QB Tanner Mordecai<br \/>\nRB Ke\u2019Shawn Vaughn<br \/>\nWR Trent Taylor<br \/>\nWR Terique Owens<br \/>\nWR

Jalen Graham<br \/>\nSLB DaShaun White<br \/>\nCB Chase Lucas<br \/>\nFS Jaylen Mahoney<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As of now, the 49ers have $51,130,920 in salary cap room for 2024, if the 49er are able to carryover that amount, which is unlikely, plus the adjustments\/credits I mentioned that they\u2019re guaranteed to get back, the 49ers as of now would be $58,539,934 under a projected 2025 adjusted salary cap of $335,060,254, but with just 37 players signed, so when they sign enough, if all 14 players are making the 2025 rookie minimum of $840,000, the 49ers would be $47,619,934 under that adjusted salary cap, with 51 players signed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, if we factor in the extra $650,000 in LTBE incentives that aren\u2019t likely to be attained, the 49ers would be $59,189,934 under a projected adjusted salary cap of $335,710,254, but again with just 38 players signed, while they\u2019d be $48,269,934 under that new projected adjusted salary cap, with 51 players signed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 49ers have some options in 2025 for savings salary cap room, but not many, as they already restructured Deebo Samuel Sr., Jake Brendel, &amp; Maliek Collins\u2019 deals that included adjustments to their 2025 cap numbers, lowering them significantly, while Trent Williams new revised 3-year, $82.66 million lowered his 2025 cap number by over $10 million, &amp; Christian McCaffrey\u2019s extension also lowered his 2025 cap number significantly, but the other options are below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TE George Kittle &#8211; $10.516 million savings ($13.145 million signing bonus, prorated at $2.629 million from 2025-2029) with a Restructure or Extension.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NT Javon Hargrave &#8211; $14.916 million savings ($18.645 million signing bonus, prorated at $3.729 million from 2025-2029) with a Restructure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MLB Fred Warner &#8211; $13.184 million savings ($16.48 million signing bonus, prorated at $3.296 million from 2025-2029) with a Restructure or Extension.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of the above 3 players, I\u2019d expect the 49ers to look to extend both Kittle, &amp; Warner, while they would be able to release Hargrave pre June 1, but they\u2019d only save $2,747,353, while a post June 1 cut saves the team $20,032,353, but the money wouldn\u2019t be available to them until June 2<sup>nd<\/sup>, 2025.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for players who restructured their deals, or signed new deals this offseason, that affected the 2025 salary cap, the 49ers won\u2019t be able to offload Samuel before June 1, as they\u2019d lose $29.229 million in 2025 cap room, while Brendel losses the team $2.093 million with a pre June 1 cut, and Collins would lose the team $670,000 with a pre June 1 cut.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the 49ers wanted to offload these players after June 1, they\u2019d save just $441,176 from Samuel, $1.765 million from Brendel, and $3.404 million from Collins, but that would also mean that they\u2019d have significant dead money in 2026, which as of now, Samuel, &amp; Collins do have pending 2026 dead money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for Williams, &amp; McCaffrey, the team would lose $34,854,781 if they cut Williams pre June 1, while only saving $617,647 with a post June 1 cut, as for McCaffrey, they\u2019d lose $23,705,059 with a pre June 1 cut, and only save $147,059 with a post June 1 cut.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The savings for McCaffrey, Samuel, &amp; Williams would go up by $200,000 for McCaffrey, &amp; Samuel, and $100,000 for Williams if they were to do a post June 1 cut designation, as those players have workout bonuses in their deals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another thing to consider for Samuel, is he\u2019s due a $15,430,530 option bonus by the 10<sup>th<\/sup> day of the new league year, but it\u2019s already guaranteed, so they would have to trade him before the 10<sup>th<\/sup> day of the new league year to get out of his contract, but I don\u2019t know what kind of value the 49ers could get for Samuel, as the team who trades for him would need to pay out that option bonus, which prorates over 5-years, and with Samuel having a deal that voids after 2025, the new team would on the hook for $12,344,424 in dead money for 2026, unless the two sides agree to a new extension, which I still believe the 49ers will look to do with Samuel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So basically, those 5 players are, in my eyes, guaranteed to be here in 2025, as team losses cap room on all 5 players, while only saving a total of $7,021,941 with post June 1 cuts or trades, while losing 4 either great or good players, and a serviceable interior offensive lineman, and would be settled with a ton of dead money in 2026.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Going back to the 49ers potential carryover + adjustments\/credits, I expect the 49ers to be able to carryover at least $48 million into 2025, while also getting back $3,929,335 in adjustments\/credits, which could increase, depending on injuries, players missing games, etc\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, the 49ers should be looking at somewhere in the $48 million salary cap room heading into the 2025 offseason, which would go a long ways in keeping their core together, with guys like left guard Aaron Banks, weakside linebacker Dre Greenlaw, cornerback Charvarius Ward, &amp; strong safety Talanoa Hufanga all scheduled to be UFAs, with the 49ers potentially being able to bring back 2 of these 4, with the most likely being Greenlaw, and either Ward or Hufanga, depending on whether or not the 49ers want to go over $20 million a year on Ward, or if they want to go over $15 million a year on Hufanga.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for Banks, the 49ers have shown that they value other positions more, money wise, than interior offensive lineman, so giving Banks anywhere near or over $10 million to $15 million a year is unlikely, especially with the way the offensive guard market has exploded, similar to the wide receiver, &amp; cornerback markets have as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next up, we have the projected RFA tenders for 2025, if the 2025 salary cap does come in at $280 million, which would be a 9.63195% increase over the 2024 salary cap of $255.4 million.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<sup>st<\/sup>-Round RFA Tender: $7.479 million<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<sup>nd<\/sup>-Round RFA Tender: $5.361 million<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Original Round RFA Tender: $3.471 million<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right of First Refusal Tender: $3.273 million<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The team has 1 pending RFA, running back Jordan Mason, and with the way he\u2019s played through 3 weeks, there\u2019s no way the 49ers don\u2019t at least tender him at the 2<sup>nd<\/sup>-round level, as if they don\u2019t, they\u2019d lose him for nothing, as he was a UDFA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for their ERFAs, they have 6 potential players, tight ends Jake Tonges &amp; Brayden Willis, right tackle Sebastian Gutierrez, defensive end Sam Okuayinonu, nose tackle Evan Anderson, and middle linebacker Curtis Robinson, although it\u2019s possible that Robinson might be a UFA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to Tonges, Willis, &amp; Okuayinonu, all 3 have base salaries of just $915,000, with Okuayinonu counting just $762,500 against the 2024 cap, as he\u2019s getting 15 weeks worth of a $915,000 base salary, while Willis counts $660,883 against the 2024 cap, as he\u2019s getting 13 weeks worth of a $915,000 base salary, while Anderson counts $485,833 against the 2024 cap, as he\u2019s getting 11 weeks worth of a $795,000 base salary, while Gutierrez counts $220,833 against the salary cap, as he\u2019s getting paid 5 weeks worth of a $795,000 base salary, so his, &amp; Anderson\u2019s ERFA tenders would be $960,000 each, while \u00a0in 2025 the ERFA tender for the other 3 would be $1.03 million each.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If Robinson is indeed an ERFA, his tender would be $1.1 million, so that would be a total of $6.11 million between the six potential ERFAs, so I\u2019d expect the 49ers to tender all 6 players, along with Jordan Mason at the 2<sup>nd<\/sup>-round RFA tender, which again would be $5.361 million on a $280 million base salary cap for 2025, a total of $11.471 million between the 7 players, 6 ERFAs, &amp; 1 RFA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we deduct these numbers from a potential of $48 million in cap room, after carryover &amp; adjustments\/credits, plus when we add in Purdy, &amp; Burford\u2019s base salaries escalating, which is an additional $6.902 million, for a total of $17.413 million, the 49ers would have $29.627 million in 2025 salary cap room, more than enough to get 2 of the 4 players I mentioned earlier re-signed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, when it comes to quarterback Brock Purdy\u2019s impending extension, which will come in somewhere in the $55 million to $60 million a year, on average, definitely a 5-year extension in length, while I\u2019d expect him to get a deal that\u2019s structured similar to Trevor Lawrence\u2019s deal, where Lawrence has cap hits of $15,029,725 in 2024, $17 million in 2025, &amp; $24 million in 2026, so expect Purdy to have similar cap numbers for the first 3 years of the deal, only instead of from 2024-2026, like with Lawrence, it\u2019d go from 2025-2027 for Purdy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for some sort of contract breakdown, guaranteed money wise, I\u2019d expect somewhere in the $235 million range, in total guaranteed, with somewhere in the $60 million to $70 million signing bonus, with a minimum base salary of $1.1 million in 2025, $1.215 million in 2026, &amp; $1.26 million in 2027, with yearly per game roster bonuses in the $750,000 range, and yearly $100,000 workout bonuses, which wouldn\u2019t start until 2026, for both the per game roster bonuses, &amp; workout bonuses, along with 2 option bonuses, say $25 million in 2026, &amp; $20 million in 2027, with those option bonuses being fully guaranteed, and I\u2019d expect his base salaries for 2024-2027, &amp; per game roster bonuses &amp; workout bonuses for 2025 &amp; 2026 to also be fully guaranteed, which would add up to between $110.275 million to $120.275 million fully guaranteed of his total guaranteed money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I expect the 49ers to also fully guarantee part of Purdy\u2019s 2028 base salary, to get his fully guaranteed money up into the $135 million range out of the $235 million in total guaranteed money, while I expect the 49ers to do something similar to what the Jaguars did with Trevor Lawrence\u2019s new deal, having more than 2 option bonuses, which would become fully guaranteed on April 1<sup>st<\/sup> of the previous year that the option bonus would be due.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, Purdy\u2019s cap numbers from 2025-2027 would be $13.1 million with a $60 million signing bonus, or $15.1 million with a $70 million signing bonus for 2025, $19.065 million with a $60 million signing bonus, or $21.065 million with a $70 million signing bonus for 2026, and $23.11 million with a $60 million signing bonus, or $25.11 million with a $70 million signing bonus for 2027, while the remaining years would come in much higher, as do all veteran extensions that the 49ers end up giving out.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, of the projected $29.627 million in cap room, you\u2019d add in the difference between what Purdy\u2019s new base salary will be once the new cap is set, which could come in at $280 million, so a difference of $4.261 million, that would give the 49ers, $33.888 million in theoretical cap room, but when the 49ers extend Purdy, which they should do as soon as their 2024 season, &amp; playoffs are over, they would still have in the $19.888 million to $21.888 million range in salary cap room for 2025, which is still enough for the team to retain 2 of their 4 big free agents, Banks, Greenlaw, Ward, &amp; Hufanga, while spending the rest on replenishing the roster with new veterans on cheap 1-2 years deals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for the 49ers remaining UFAs, I\u2019d expect them to look to keep the following on cheap 1-2 year deals, quarterbacks Brandon Allen, &amp; Joshua Dobbs, wide receiver Chris Conley, tight end Eric Saubert, centers Jon Feliciano, &amp; Ben Bartch, left tackle Jaylon Moore, defensive tackle Kevin Givens, strongside linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, cornerbacks Isaac Yiadom, &amp; Rock Ya-Sin, &amp; free safety Tashaun Gipson Sr., while letting running back Elijah Mitchell, defensive tackle Khalil Davis, weakside linebacker De\u2019Vondre Campbell Sr., cornerback Ambry Thomas, &amp; punter Pat O\u2019Donnell to test free agency, with O\u2019Donnell likely to be released once Mitch Wishnowsky is back.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 49ers, as of now, would owe out the following to players who had per game roster bonuses counting against the cap, but weren\u2019t achieved, hence the team needs to payback the players.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RB Christian McCaffrey &#8211; $352,941<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WR Brandon Aiyuk &#8211; $441,176<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WR Deebo Samuel Sr. &#8211; $44,118<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WR Jauan Jennings &#8211; $73,529<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TE George Kittle &#8211; $58,824<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LT Trent Williams &#8211; $132,353<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DE Nick Bosa &#8211; $88,235<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DE Yetur Gross-Matos &#8211; $180,000<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DT Jordan Elliott &#8211; $58,824<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NT Javon Hargrave &#8211; $617,647<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CB Deommodore Lenoir &#8211; $44,118<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FS George Odum &#8211; $40,000<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s a total of $2,131,765 needed in 2025, as of now, to payback 12 players currently under contract for next season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And before anyone asks me about Kyle Shanahan or John Lynch\u2019s job security, I don\u2019t, in anyway, see the 49ers letting go of either Shanahan or Lynch, as this franchise doesn\u2019t want to go back to dark ages, with the likes of Dennis Erickson, Mike Nolan, Mike Singletary, Jim Tomsula, or Chip Kelly as head coach, or someone like Scot McCloughan, or Trent Baalke as general manager, so no, don\u2019t expect the 49ers to make any changes at the head coaching position, especially in season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, with the way the season is going, changes do need to be made, but as I said not Shanahan or Lynch, the changes need to philosophy, also coaching changes, Nick Sorensen isn\u2019t working out, so someone like Jeff Ulbrich or former 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh would be great hires, and the team needs a new special teams coordinator.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And there you guys go, my latest look at the 49ers 2024 &amp; 2025 salary cap situations as of today, as always, thank you for reading, you can follow
