At the 2025 NFL Annual Meeting, 49ers CEO Jed York revealed their offseason free-agency approach heavily was influenced by the decision as an organization to pay quarterback Brock Purdy. The 49ers dialed back their spending this offseason in preparation for the largest contract in franchise history, an investment York said the organization's brass is aligned with. Matt Maiocco and Jennifer Lee Chan discuss York's comments, his first publicly since their offseason departures, and weigh what number Purdy and the organization might land on in addition to when. Also, Matt and Jennifer review coach Kyle Shanahan's explanation on Kyle Juszczyk's offseason contract carousel as well as his belief i n the current iteration of the 49ers' offensive line and bringing in camp competition for kicker Jake Moody.--1:30) 49ers CEO Jed York speaks for first time since free-agency roster ‘purge'(6:00) York confirms offseason inactivity was preparation for signing/extending Purdy, Kittle, Warner(7:00) York believes Purdy is top-10 NFL QB, will he pay him like that?(11:00) York explains why Purdy deal ‘shouldn't be that hard to do' once they sit down(12:00) 49ers offseason program starts Apr 21, important benchmark for contract to get done?(16:45) York, Shanahan, and Lynch have been aligned in offseason message, strategy throughout process(25:00) Shanahan confirmed the 49ers will bring in competition for kicker Jake Moody

March 19, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 107 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers failed attempt at signing free agent FB Kyle Juszczyk, who ultimately signed back with the San Francisco 49ers. We discuss the reports that the Steelers offered Juszczyk more money and why he likely turned that down to return to the 49ers. The Steelers reportedly signed free agent S Juan Thornhill, formerly of the Cleveland Browns, on Monday so Alex and I talk about what he brings to Pittsburgh. We also talk about the Steelers re-signing DL Isaiahh Loudermilk on Tuesday and what that means to that position group ahead of this year's draft. Will the Steelers re-sign a few more of their own unrestricted free agents in the coming week or weeks? We discuss a few of those players that might re-sign on the cheap. We are obligated to pass along the latest rumblings on free agent QB Aaron Rodgers during this show and we get that topic covered. We also discuss what Steelers DT Cameron Heyward said about Rodgers and Pittsburgh's ongoing quarterback search on his latest podcast episode. The Steelers reportedly had a big dinner with Alabama QB Jalen Milroe prior to his Wednesday pro day, so Alex and I discuss the significance of that. We discuss where Milroe is likely to go in the 2025 NFL Draft and if the Steelers will ultimately draft him or another quarterback at some point this year. We also discuss another Alabama that was reportedly at that pro day dinner on Tuesday night. The Steelers are staying busy on the annual pro day trail, so Alex and I discuss DB coach Gerald Alexander going to South Carolina to put S Nick Emmanwori through his drills. Is it possible that the Steelers will draft a safety in the first round this year? What about in the first four rounds? Alex and I attempt to answer those questions. The Oregon pro day took place on Tuesday and the Steelers only had one scout there, according to reports. We discuss that pro day some and a few more that other members of the Steelers' scouting department were spotted at since our last episode. Alex posted his second mock draft of 2025 on Wednesday, so we go over each one of his selections. We also discuss the state of the Steelers' tackle depth chart later in this show as well. This 100-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap as well. We end this show by answering several emails we have received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news live around 5 p.m. Eastern. Are general manager Omar Khan, coach Mike Tomlin and the Steelers getting used for leverage with other teams by players including Aaron Rodgers, Justin Fields, Kyle Juszczyk and even Brandon Aiyuk last offseason? Or are they just getting unlucky in NFL free agency? What should we make of the latest on the quarterback front with Rodgers and Russell Wilson still available but not committing anywhere? And does Mason Rudolph have what it takes to be the Steelers' starter for a year if necessary? Paul tackles those topics, reacts to the release of the NCAA tournament/March Madness bracket and gives his thoughts on Pitt and Penn State both declining postseason invites.

Die Free Agency in der NFL hat begonnen - und die San Francisco 49ers sind anders als in den letzten Jahren noch nicht großartig aktiv geworden. Im Gegenteil: Fast alle der Free Agents der Niners haben sehr lukrative Deals bei anderen Teams abgeschlossen. Zudem gab es einige Entlassungen, u. a. von verdienten Spielern und Publikumslieblingen wie Kyle Juszczyk. Der Aderlass ist also groß, da die 49ers einen neuen finanziellen Weg einzuschlagen scheinen. Statt teuren Verträgen gibt es eine radikale Verjüngungskur - inklusive eines großen Dead Cap-Betrags im aktuellen Ligajahr, welches am Mittwoch begonnen hat. Doch was heißt das für die kommende Saison? Sind die 49ers noch ein Contender? Oder steht uns ein sogenanntes "Gap Year" bevor? Wir analysieren die neuesten Entwicklungen rund um das Team und stellen euch auch die Neuzugänge der 49ers genauer vor. Viel Spaß beim Hören - Go Niners!
