ESPN.com has learned that the 49ers reached agreement with Gore on a four-year contract extension through 2011, with the deal averaging just shy of $7 million in terms of so-called "new money."
Gore will receive an initial signing bonus of $6.5 million and total guarantees of nearly $14 million. The contract will pay Gore $13.862 million in its first two seasons and $18.212 million in the first three years. Because Gore had one season remaining on his original rookie contract, the four-year extension creates a five-year deal, and the total value over the course of the five seasons is $28.012 million.

Yes! Good for gore and the niners.

Good for him. He deserves it. Niners fans cross their fingers that his injury days are behind him.

good move by the niners, but i wonder how much is guaranteed

[jetsfan3]

Just under 6 million per year isn't absurd, it's a lot though considering he's been injured previously. However, I think it will be worth it, Gore is a stud.

Good news for the San Francisco 49ers offense aka Frank Gore and 10 Other Guys.

I kid, of course. Good to know Frank the Tank will be wearing red and gold for the next few years.

Nice to see the Niners running up their tab! Too much guaranteed money for a guy with a history of injuries.

[Number 10]

Nice economic contract.

damn it i wanted a hold out

A well deserved contract and hopefully he continues to improve for the 49ers sake. He was the vocal point of that offense and this year he'll need to make more strides b/c they really don't have a go to wideout and Vernon Davis is still getting his feet wet.

Hmmm.. I wonder why. Barring injury, he's gonna be tearing up that other bay area team for a couple more years.. BARRING INJURY! lol

About as Ironic as it is that he was a FA in my madden and ranked a 76

He sucks in Madden. I tried using him as my feature back.. That didn't work out too well.
