Strange Trades That Didn't Happen

The weird drama in the front office of the San Francisco 49er's will drag on and eventually someone will depart from the team. It was very strange to hear of the attempt by the Cleveland Browns to make a trade for coach Jim Harbaugh.

Team owner Jed York declined the offer, but it shows the strain between Harbaugh and the team as they attempt to negotiate a long term contract with the coach.

Reports indicate that the relationship between Harbaugh and GM Tent Baalke are strained to the point where they only communicate via email. This does not bode well for the long term.

It appears that the team will need to decide between Harbaugh and Baalke. I think Harbaugh is the favorite because he has guided the 49er's to three straight NFL Championship games, but you never know.
