    The 49ers and ex Packers receiver Brett Swain agreed to a one-year deal today, according to Swain's agent. The former seventh-round pick beat out several bigger-named free agents, including T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Chris Chambers and Brian Finneran, to win a spot on the 49ers active roster. The team is trying to fill Joshua Morgan's spot on the game-day roster after he broke a bone in his lower leg late in Sunday's win over the Buccaneers. Swain's biggest impact came on special teams, which is where he'll likely begin with the 49ers. He had three tackles in the Packers' Super Bowl win and drew praise for his performance in the game.

    Houshmansadeh sucks now. But that signing by SF is dumb. They should of signed Ziegler he was a solid player for them last year.

    Yeah he was in healthy in the 1 preseason game he played, but he looked good last year. Some of the catches he maid last year wear very good.
