Braylon Edwards - WR - 49ers 49ers agreed to terms with WR Braylon Edwards on a one-year, $3.5 million contract.
It's more confirmation that the Niners are worried about Michael Crabtree (foot), who is a candidate to miss the first six games of the season on reserve/PUP. Edwards settled for a one-year, "prove-it" deal after finding an extremely soft market due to off-field concerns and questions about his passion for football. He gives the Niners a deep threat with a 15.8 career yards-per-reception average, although Alex Smith won't capitalize on Edwards' vertical speed. Perhaps rookie Colin Kaepernick will a month or two into the season. Consider Edwards a WR4/5 in fantasy leagues. Crabtree is almost undraftable at this point.
