DeMarcus Cousins (sore foot, MRI tomorrow) status has flipped the Warriors plans, Team announces. Andrew Bogut flying to San Antonio from Oakland. Available for tomorrow’s game vs Spurs.

-BOGUT BACK TONIGHT
-COULD COUSINS COME BACK W WARRIORS WHEN DURANT LEAVES---WOULD U WANT HIM?
Leroux: DeMarcus Cousins would have to walk away from significant money to stay with the Warriors past this season
NO CHANCE --WE GET THIS QUESTION OFTEN
Big picture
Even beyond the huge sacrifice — based on his talent — that Cousins would have to make to take $6.4 million and $11.2 million for the next two seasons, remember that the big man turns 29 this summer as well. That means he has a limited window to maximize his financial future and while he can look healthier a year from now, age-related regression and a lack of positional scarcity are real concerns moving forward.

This type of behavior … when you’re the face of the NBA, you should be more a part of your team, folks,” Frazier said on the MSG telecast. “No matter what is going on. In the public, you gotta be a part of the team. Maybe in the locker room you’re not, but you have to exude that type of togetherness in public, folks. And right now we see he doesn’t really care.”

BREER:

49ers 4 new multi-year deals:
Kwon Alexander’s 4 yr, $54M deal can be 1 yr, $14.5M Tevin Coleman’s 2 yr, $8.5M deal can be 1 yr, $3.6M Dee Ford’s 5 yr, $85.5M deal can be 1 yr, $21M Kyle Nelson’s 4 yr $4.54M deal can be 1 yr, $1.3M | |
| Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) | |
|
The structure to the Ford deal is like Kaepernick's was, with April 1 roster bonuses giving the team time to decide on whether or not to go forward.
And the team basically paid $3 million over the tag to get 4 years of team options back. Niners killed it. | |
| Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) | |

Details on #49ers OLB Dee Ford’s 5-year contract, which can turn into a 1-year, $20.5 million pact:
$19.75M fully guaranteed by next week. Remaining $25.25M guarantee is for injury only, with $13.65M “rolling” to full guarantee April 1, 2020. Base value $85M. Max $87.5M. | |
-EXPECTATIONS NOW AFTER SOLID FA.??

KING:
49ERS DIDN'T MATCH UP W/ GIANTS:
So when the deal got to the one and the three and Peppers, Gettleman and Dorsey agreed. By my measure, the Giants got about 80 percent value for Beckham; I’m not as high on Peppers as Gettleman obviously is—or as Gettleman has to be. Gettleman had to decide whether he wanted to leverage the Cleveland offer with other teams. Because Beckham’s stock had been tarnished, it’s doubtful, for example, that he could have fetched better than 17-95-Peppers from the 49ers for picks and/or a player in the next two drafts. The Niners have been sniffing around Beckham for months. But they’re just not a good match right now. The Giants need high picks and/or productive players. The Niners wouldn’t have wanted to trade a high pick this year or next plus rising star defensive tackle DeForest Buckner … and the Giants might not have wanted to settle, say, for next year’s first-rounder and this year’s second-rounder (36th overall) plus a lesser player than Buckner (say safety Jaquiski Tartt). The Giants need help now. So Gettleman took the bird in the hand. He lanced the boil.
NFL:
DID ANTONIO BROWN FAKE CRAZY - BREER:
’m not saying it was or it wasn’t. All I’m saying is that I don’t think my theory of Tuesday was far off (or off at all). Think about it. If you really wanted out, you’d want the problems you had to seem unfixable. And what can’t you fix? You can’t fix crazy. So Brown makes sure the Steelers think he’s just crazy enough to do anything, and gets a ticket out of town, along with a fat new contract. Once it’s over? Mustache gone. And Brown’s crazy like a fox. And I’m not crazy for thinking this all along.
BOTH KING AND BREER CONFORM FA IS PHONY: FOOLS GOLD
BREER:
Most good teams didn’t spend. And here’s proof, using Spotrac’s offseason spending tracker for 2019 as our guide:
• Five of the six lightest-spending teams made the playoffs last year, and two of the three lightest spenders played in the Super Bowl. Ten of the 12 playoffs teams from last year are in the bottom 14 in spending thus far. And two of the four in that cluster that didn’t make the playoffs (Atlanta, Carolina) have been in the Super Bowl and made the playoffs multiple times over the last four years.
• That leaves two of the 18 heaviest spenders that made the playoffs. One was eighth (Philly), the other was 12th (Baltimore).
• It’s not unusual that it’d skew this way—good teams don’t spend because they’ve already paid a lot of their own guys and likely don’t feel as desperate. But a quick look at the recent past shows that this year the divide between the habits of the haves and have-nots was much more pronounced.

Just Look At 2018
While getting excited about the new class of free agents, remember these Pro Football Focus ratings of some of the richest players who changed teams in the 2018 free-agency class.
Kirk Cousins ($28 million per year) was PFF’s 11th-rated quarterback.
Case Keenum ($18 million per) was the 28th-rated quarterback.
Sammy Watkins ($16 million per) was the 38th-rated wide receiver.
Nate Solder ($15.5 million per) was the 38th-rated tackle.
Trumaine Johnson ($14.5 million per) was the 43rd-rated cornerback.
Allen Robinson ($14 million per) was the 35th-rated wide receiver.
Andrew Norwell ($13.3 million per) was the 13th-rated guard.
Malcolm Butler ($12.2 million per) was the 73rd-rated cornerback.
Ryan Jensen ($10.5 million per) was the 36th-rated center.
Case Keenum ($18 million per) was the 28th-rated quarterback.
Sammy Watkins ($16 million per) was the 38th-rated wide receiver.
Nate Solder ($15.5 million per) was the 38th-rated tackle.
Trumaine Johnson ($14.5 million per) was the 43rd-rated cornerback.
Allen Robinson ($14 million per) was the 35th-rated wide receiver.
Andrew Norwell ($13.3 million per) was the 13th-rated guard.
Malcolm Butler ($12.2 million per) was the 73rd-rated cornerback.
Ryan Jensen ($10.5 million per) was the 36th-rated center.
Seriously: How many GMs who signed those players, 12 months later, wish they hadn’t? Keenum in Denver, Watkins in Kansas City, Johnson in New York and Butler in Tennessee … Those would be the top on my list.
The Contracts Are Phony
Some insightful work done by Jason Fitzgerald at Over The Cap. I asked him for the total number of contracts of three years or longer in the last few free-agency periods. Let’s isolate on 2015 and 2016. Of the 197 lengthy (three years or more) free-agent contracts signed in those two years, 121 of the players never made it to the third years of their deals. That’s 61.4 percent of big free-agents, gone after one or two years. The clear majority of free-agent contracts beyond two years: window-dressing.
The Belichick Way
You saw the pictures, I assume, of Bill Belichick and girlfriend Linda Holliday in Barbados on the weekend before free-agency began. They have phones there, and Belichick was using them. “Don’t let those photos fool you,” Rosenhaus the agent told me Sunday. “We talked one morning at 4:30 about Trent Brown. They wanted to keep him.” Brown, of course, went to Oakland. As Mike Reiss reported, the Patriots were heavily into the Adam Humphries bidding before the slot receiver went to the Titans. But as usual, New England was mostly a Triple-A player in free agency, willing to play the long game while Trey Flowers and Brown left for gigantic contracts. New England will be content to use their six picks in the first three rounds (32, 56, 64, 73, 97, 101) and at least five in the first three rounds next year as currency. It’s easy to wonder why other teams don’t copy this model, but I wonder: Why don’t other teams copy this model?
