49ers’ Dashon Goldson could hold out

Dashon Goldson is one of several still unsigned franchise players and he doesn’t seem to be in a big hurry to sign. According to CSN Bay Area, Goldson has no plans to sign the tender or even visit the Bay Area. It’s clear he’s unhappy and wants the long term deal they did not give him last offseason when he was a free agent.

Goldson is coming off a career best season in which he made the Pro Bowl, as he had 6 interceptions on the league’s best defense, but in depth statistics show he was one of the more frequently torched safeties in one on one coverage in the league. The 49ers would be wise not to give him a huge, long term deal, especially since he only has one good season on his resume. He is, however, a perfect fit for the 49ers defense. With their pass rush, his playmaking abilities are able to be best utilized as the front 7 forces frequent hurried throws.
