The San Francisco 49ers made Fred Warner the highest-paid linebacker in the NFL yesterday. As a result, Warner won't have to worry about contract questions during training camp and can now focus on the pursuit of the Niner's sixth Lombardi trophy.
I talked about how the linebacker core can be tops in the league, but it is mainly because of All-Pro Fred. Warner’s ability to not only cover but be everywhere on the field shows as he's led the team in tackles for the last three seasons.
I know Robert Saleh is proud of Warner.
