Pro Football Talk is reporting that the San Francisco 49ers have agreed to terms with defensive tackle Ian Williams on a two year, $3.2 million contract extension. The 49ers do not report deals until they have been signed and approved by the NFL, but PFT is reporting a source indicates the deal is done. (Fooch's update: The 49ers have made it official) The 49ers signed Williams to a three-year deal in 2011 as an undrafted free agent following the close of the NFL lockout, Williams was considered one of the better undrafted free agents at the time. Williams earned a spot on the 53-man roster out of training camp, but was inactive for 14 games as a rookie, he saw action in one game and was active but sidelined for another game. In 2012 Williams was active for three games. Source: SBNation
I'd prefer RJF since Soap is getting up there in age and isn't as versatile, but of course that means is price is higher
Man I dont like that they are letting RJF hit the open market. Not much of a pass rusher but very solid in run D and we are already thin at d line. Something tells me the 49ers are doing something very secretive about the dline.
I think DLine is SF most pressing need if we have one. They need to spell those guys, Haralson being hurt last year was tough on them.
