Post-2019 season:
The 49ers also sign UDFA Matt Brieda to a 1-year deal.
The deal is worth over double what they give McKinnon.
They have UDFA Raheem Mostert signed thru 2021.
Their UDFA RBs are very reasonably priced:
-Brieda at $3.3M this yr
-Mostert at $2.9M per yr

The 49ers made it to the Super Bowl.
They had the ball, a 1st down & a 10-point lead with 10 minutes to go in the 4th quarter.
They spent $9.3M in cap space on two free agent RBs (Coleman & McKinnon) not helping the team.
What happens if they used that money for other players?

This isn& #39;t entirely on GM John Lynch.
Remember RB Joe Williams? He wasn& #39;t even on the 49ers draft board in 2017, but Kyle Shanahan was going to "be sick" if the team didn& #39;t take him.
To appease Shanahan, Lynch traded up to draft Williams (h/t @schwartzsteins for reminding me).
