Well-worth the risk. I'm actually more surprised the Patriots didn't make this deal, though.

So basically a 6th round pick for Vernon Davis. Seeing this I have to say there is no way the Packers were even remotely involved in the talk for Vernon Davis.

49ers get
2016 6th round pick
2017 67th round pick

Broncos get
TE Vernon Davis
2016 7th round pick

Being from the Bay Area, I watch Niners games more than I should.

This has "Moss to New England" all over it. Vernon Davis hasn't been used properly ever since Kaepernick became QB. Even in Kaepernick's prime, he never knew how to throw a touch pass. Whenever he did throw to Vernon, it was either an overthrown ball, or he put it in a dangerous place where Davis would get rocked. The result? Vernon would either drop it, not try to get it, or catch it and then get killed. Watch any game where the played the Seahawks, and you'll see Kam Chancellor literally beating the living hell out of Vernon Davis.

Maybe that's part of it. He was hurt a lot, but Kaepernick has never done him any favors.

Kubiak's offense is very TE heavy, and I envision this to be nothing but awesome for Denver.

Nah, Ted Thompson likes to sit with his thumb up his ass while wearing nothing but a T-shirt that says "next man up"...

Dont count on us trading or signing anyone to help better our team.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.
