I don't know who all looked at Young. I thought the word was he was playing well after injuries. Probably some combination of the past two injured seasons and the upcoming contract kept teams prudent. |

[QUOTE=Spike;281425]Young is going to be an unrestricted free agent in March.
So why give up a 3rd round pick for a rental this year when it is apparent the Colts are not contenders. Here's a novel idea, trade for him ,then try to sign him to an extension !! He would immediately become your best pass rusher, and he's only 24 yrs old!! |

Don't spend the 3rd round pick, let him play for SF on his rental year when they are a contender and then at the end of the season when they cannot afford him, sign him in the off season as a free agent!!! |

DE is the one position he has spent money on in free agency. Granted, it's never been the type of contract it will take to get Chase Young, but his largest (and best) free agent contracts have gone to DEs.

That's without Chase Young in the picture. If they decide they want him, where does that push the projection? North of $300m, right? And by the way, this is with them paying their QB $2m total for '24 and '25. That's the real monster contract around the corner. Some trimming is coming for them.

Agree that Young is someone we should look at in FA, but the only way he ends up here is if he either gets hurt or doesn't do much w/ the 9ers. Either of which would put him in mid level or 1 year show me contract range. If he stays healthy and continues to produce like he has for the first half w/ Wash then someone(s) will offer him a high end contract, and we all know that there's no way Ballard will do that.

I am not so sure Ballard would not offer a competitive contract to Young. Ballard has tried to find a pass rusher in the draft. He has spent big time draft capital. He understands that to win in this NFL you need to be able to get to the passer-his drafting says as much. For a stud pass rusher that could transform your defense he might be willing to pay. He hasn't been able to hit on one otherwise. My question is is Chase Young that stud pass rusher that you gamble somewhere over 23-25 million a year for?

Wonder what that contract would look like. Sweat went for a higher pick for a reason. Prove it year contract? Would that work or is there some team out there willing to blow the bank to sign him? Would anyone here support that?
