here<\/a>.<\/p>\nI would re-sign the following UFAs.<\/p>\n
RB Raheem Mostert \u2013 1-year deal, worth up to $5 million with incentives, with a $1,764,706 2022 cap number
\nRB Trenton Cannon \u2013 1-year deal, worth $1.035 million, but only $895,000 counts against the cap.
\nWR Trent Sherfield \u2013 1-year deal, worth $1.035 million, but only $895,000 counts against the cap.
\nC Jake Brendel \u2013 1-year deal, worth $1.035 million, but only $895,000 counts against the cap.
\nLG Laken Tomlinson \u2013 5-year deal, worth $50 million, averaging $10 million a year, with $21.345 million in guaranteed money, and a $2.965 million 2022 cap number.
\nRT Tom Compton \u2013 1-year deal, worth $1,272,500, with a $152,500 signing bonus, and a $1,047,500 2022 cap number.
\nDE Arden Key \u2013 4-year deal, worth $16 million, averaging $4 million a year, with $6.5 million in guaranteed money, and a $1.285 million 2022 cap number.
\nDE Jordan Willis \u2013 2-year deal, worth $4 million, averaging $2 million a year, with $1.535 million in guaranteed money, and a $1,443,824 2022 cap number.
\nNT D.J. Jones \u2013 5-year deal, worth $30 million, averaging $6 million a year, with $10 million in guaranteed money, and a $2.5 million 2022 cap number.
\nCB Jason Verrett \u2013 1-year deal, worth up to $5 million, with a $1,764,706 2022 cap number
\nCB K\u2019Waun Williams \u2013 3-year deal, worth $10.5 million, averaging $3.5 million a year, with $6.71 million in guaranteed money, and a $2,455,882 2022 cap number.

These 10 re-signings would cost $19,184,118 against the cap, but with the top 51 rule, the 49ers would be $18,766,488 under the 2022 salary cap.<\/p>\n
Next are my free agent signings from other teams.<\/p>\n
QB Tyrod Taylor \u2013 1-year deal, worth up to $10 million with incentives, and a $5 million 2022 cap number.
\nRB\/WR Cordarrelle Patterson \u2013 3-year deal, worth $18 million, averaging $6 million a year, with $9.21 million in guaranteed money, and a $4,485,294 2022 cap number.
\nCB Levi Wallace \u2013 5-year deal, worth $40 million, averaging $8 million a year, with $25 million in guaranteed money, and a $2.685 million 2022 cap number.<\/p>\n
These 3 signings would cost $12,170,294 against the cap, but with the top 51 rule, the 49ers would be $9,281,194 under the 2022 salary cap.<\/p>\n
Next up are extensions.<\/p>\n
WR Deebo Samuel \u2013 5-year deal, worth $102.5 million, averaging $20.5 million a year, with $58.615 million in guaranteed money, and a $4,919,519 2022 cap number.
\nDE Nick Bosa \u2013 5-year deal, worth $152.5 million, averaging $30.5 million a year, with $100 million in guaranteed money, and a $12,500,339 2022 cap number.
\nWLB Dre Greenlaw \u2013 4-year deal, worth $14 million, averaging $3.5 million a year, with $5 million in guaranteed money, and a $1,245,429 2022 cap number.
\nFS Jimmie Ward \u2013 3-year deal, worth $33.75 million, averaging $11.25 million a year, with $15.065 million in guaranteed money, and a $7,109,588 2022 cap number.<\/p>\n
With these 4 extensions, the 49ers would be $14,758,419 under the 2022 salary cap.<\/p>\n
So, with all these roster moves, the 49ers would have 65 players signed for 2022.<\/p>\n

Next up is the 49ers current 2022 draft class, which will cost them $7,694,844 against the cap, but as of now only the first 4 picks would count, a total $4,169,844, which would leave the team with $14,168,575 in 2022 salary cap room.<\/p>\n
Now, I have in my offseason plan 48 players making the 53-man roster, or on a reserve\/injured list, counting $182,300,200 against the cap, with a projected dead money amount of $16,222,609, including Dee Ford being released Post June 1, and their 2022 current draft picks counting $7,694,844, for a total cap commitment of $200,919,397, putting the team $11,853,575 under the 2022 salary cap, but the team\u2019s practice squad would count at least $2,905,200, leaving the 49ers with $8,948,375 in cap room to begin the 2022 season, which is enough to get through the season.<\/p>\n
Of the 48 players I have on my projected 53-man roster + reserve\/injured lists, 29 of them are currently signed for 2022, with the rest being 16 free agents re-signed, whether they\u2019re UFAs, RFAs, or ERFAs, and 3 outside free agents.<\/p>\n
Below is my projected 53-man roster under this offseason plan.<\/p>\n

\nLS(1): 46 Taybor Pepper(2022)<\/p>\nAs for 2022 & beyond, the 49ers, under this plan would have 38 players signed for 2023, including the 9 draft picks, for 2023, with $21,596,046 in salary cap room on a projected $225 million cap, & with 51 players signed, it would be $11,846,046 under the 2022 salary cap, while they\u2019ll have $23,120,675 in cap room in 2024 with 32 players signed, on a projected $256 million salary cap, but with 51 players signed, they\u2019d be $8,810,675 under the 2024 salary cap.<\/p>\n
After 2024, the 49ers salary cap room would have well over $66 million in 2025, & over $140 million in 2026, meaning the 49ers can extend Brandon Aiyuk, with the 49ers doing the same thing they did with Fred Warner, reducing his base salary down to the minimum, which will be $1.01 million in 2023, a difference of $1,308,821, and if I\u2019m the 49ers, I use just enough to give Aiyuk a $15 million signing bonus, with low 2023 & 2024 cap numbers, which would be his first 2-years of his deal, which is what the 49ers did with the likes of tight end George Kittle, left tackle Trent Williams, defensive tackle Arik Armstead, & middle linebacker Fred Warner, and will do so with wide receiver Deebo Samuel, & defensive end Nick Bosa.<\/p>\n
So, for those worried about the 49ers\u2019 future, when it comes to retaining Brandon Aiyuk, while still having the key core players signed long term, don\u2019t worry, the 49ers will be just fine, trust Paraag Marathe, the best capologist in the NFL.<\/p>\n
