When news first came out about the 49ers making an offer sheet to Brock Wright, a restricted free agent from the Lions, there weren’t many details available.
Now, a bit more information has emerged, but it’s still limited. According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, the offer is for three years and $12 million. However, specifics about the contract’s structure, like how much is guaranteed at the start and the cash flow, are still unknown.
The main question is how committed the 49ers are to this offer. Understanding their offer is crucial because it will determine what the Lions will do—whether they choose to match it or not, within the given five-day window.
Wright currently has a one-year tender from the Lions worth $2.985 million. According to the rules, the Lions have the right to match the offer, but if they don’t, they won’t receive any compensation from the 49ers.
