As the San Francisco 49ers begin their final roster cuts today, something needs to be made apparent for the next couple of days: they are second on the waiver wire. That means behind the Arizona Cardinals, they have the pick of the NFL.
Kyle has a good post explaining how things work here. The key thing to get out of this is what I already said: The 49ers are second on the waiver wire. This means any players with less than four years of service are ripe for the picking.
In previous years, we’ve seen the 49ers active on the waiver wire.
