Still, there's one more pressing issue on his to-do list: Track down the man who will be throwing him passes in 2013.</p> <p>Boldin said he got in touch with Colin Kaepernick, who is training in Atlanta, by phone as soon as Boldin returned from a charity mission in Senegal. Getting on the practice field together, he said, is the next step if they want to have the proper chemistry for the 2013 season. </p> <p>"That's something that doesn't just happen overnight," Boldin said. "Any time you see a quarterback and a receiver on the same page, that means they've spent time together. So that's something I want to do."</p> <p>Boldin said the time frame for establishing that rapport has differed with every quarterback he's had.

That meeting ended today.</p> <p>The 49ers are still keeping their options open as far as Woodson, but he is not a pressing need for them after the team signed safety Craig Dahl to a three-year deal. Dahl said he expected to compete for Dashon Goldson's former spot at free safety. Woodson has said he wants to play for a playoff contender.</p> <p>There's one thing, however, that has Woodson elated. The infamous 'Tuck Rule' was eliminated today.

Indeed, Dawson spent his career kicking on the shores of Lake Erie and in other nearby cities - Pittsburgh, for instance - where the weather turns nasty starting in the late fall.</p> <p>He hasn't, however, had a lot of practice inside Candlestick Park. Dawson, in fact, is 1-2 in two appearances in San Francisco in 2011 and 2003. One of the questions he asked team officials during his recent visit was weather the stadium was accessible in the offseason. The answer is yes, and Dawson said he'd monitor the weather reports as soon as he brings his family to the Bay Area.</p> <p>"And when it's supposed to be bad days, you can find me in there," he said.

Dawson, 38, broke the news himself on his Twitter account: "I am humbled & thrilled to have the opportunity to continue my career with my new team, the SF 49ers!" He had spent his first 14 seasons with the Browns.</p> <p>Earlier this month, the 49ers parted ways with David Akers, 38, after Akers went through the roughest season of his career. He made only 69 percent of his field goals and blew potential game winners in two overtime games against the Rams. Akers, who struggled with a sports hernia during the second half of the season, was particularly bad from beyond 40 yards, hitting only 9-19 from that distance.</p> <p>Dawson, meanwhile, was 13-13 from 40 yards and beyond (including 7-7 beyond 50 yards). Overall, he was good on 93.5 percent of his attempts for the Browns, which tied for second place among full-time NFL kickers. Dawson missed just two field goals last year -- a 28-yard attempt against the Raiders that was blocked and a 39-yard try that went wide right in Week 17 in Pittsburgh where it was 18 degrees wind chill with 12 mph winds.</p> <p>Dawson is familiar to special teams coach Brad Seely, who coached him for two seasons (2009-10) in Cleveland. Dawson is right footed while Akers is a lefty. That will require holder Andy Lee to switch sides, something the athletic Lee has not had a problem doing over his career.</p> <p>The length of the Dawson's deal is not yet known.</p> <p>-- Matt Barrows</p> </div> </div> <div class="asset-footer"> <p class="categories"><strong>Categories:</strong> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/free-agency/">free agency</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/players/">players</a> <p class="tags"><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/mt/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=18&tag=Brad%20Seely&limit=20&IncludeBlogs=18" rel="tag">Brad Seely</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/mt/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=18&tag=David%20Akers&limit=20&IncludeBlogs=18" rel="tag">David Akers</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/mt/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=18&tag=Phil%20Dawson&limit=20&IncludeBlogs=18" rel="tag">Phil Dawson</a></p> <script type="text/javascript"> if (document.getElementById('gigyaShareBar_bottom') === null) { document.write('<div id="gigyaShareBar_bottom" style="margin: 10px 0; margin-bottom: 20px;"></div>'); Sacbee.load([ 'API', 'Ext.Gigya', 'Shortener' ], function() { var api = new Sacbee.API('f1ZXnae54o8tYnTMvIsstTgFz0EngrWUAosmBr3nTS5I0w2ZzygsIx9k7DeM5bEx'); Sacbee.Shortener.shorten('https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/2013/03/49ers-find-their-kicker-phil-dawson.html', function(evt) { var lurl = evt.longURL; var surl = (evt.success) ? evt.shortURL : lurl; var act = new gigya.socialize.UserAction(); act.setTitle('Sacbee - 49ers find their kicker: Phil Dawson'); act.setLinkBack(surl); act.setDescription(' The 49ers today agreed to a deal with veteran kicker Phil Dawson, who tied for second in field-goal accuracy this past season and was named to his first Pro Bowl.

Colin Kaepernick, however, entered and led second-half drives that first gave the 49ers the lead, and after the Rams took it back, sent the game to overtime. Both teams missed field goals and the contest ended in a 24-24 tie. </p> <p>To be fair to Smith, he threw a touchdown pass to Michael Crabtree after suffering his concussion. It was his last throw of the game. He was 7-8 for 72 yards and had a 143.8 rating at the time. It also needs to be pointed out that the Rams defensive back beaten on the Crabtree touchdown was ... wait for it, wait for it ... Dahl.

It was kind of like, 'Man, I wish we could have kept Alex in the game.'"</p> <p>It also should be pointed out that a Kaepernick mistake in the rematch -- a botched pitch to Ted Ginn - -helped erase a 49ers lead. That game also went to overtime, and the Rams won it with a field goal.</p> <p>The 49ers obviously like Dahl for his smarts. He has an engineering degree from North Dakota State and he's a former high school quarterback. He said having played quarterback translates nicely to safety from a leadership, communication and vision standpoint. Both positions, he said, require "big perif" -- being able to see the whole field all the time.</p> <p>The signing also got a thumbs up from former Colts personnel guru Bill Polian, who also appeared on 95.7 The Game and who added to the notion that the 49ers will draft a safety next month. "I think they did a good job by adding Dahl," Polian said. "Remember, the quarterback of that defense was not (Dashon) Goldson. It was the Ohio State guy (Donte Whitner). So that's No. 1. The guy who makes those calls and make everybody line up back there is the most important guy as good a player as Goldson. ... The draft is filled with safeties, they'll get a good player there, and he'll spend a year or a little more learning the system and then be ready to step in and go."</p> <p>-- Matt Barrows</p> </div> </div> <div class="asset-footer"> <script type="text/javascript"> if (document.getElementById('gigyaShareBar_bottom') === null) { document.write('<div id="gigyaShareBar_bottom" style="margin: 10px 0; margin-bottom: 20px;"></div>'); Sacbee.load([ 'API', 'Ext.Gigya', 'Shortener' ], function() { var api = new Sacbee.API('f1ZXnae54o8tYnTMvIsstTgFz0EngrWUAosmBr3nTS5I0w2ZzygsIx9k7DeM5bEx'); Sacbee.Shortener.shorten('https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/2013/03/dahl-says-rams-regretted-knocking-alex-smith-from-game.html', function(evt) { var lurl = evt.longURL; var surl = (evt.success) ? evt.shortURL : lurl; var act = new gigya.socialize.UserAction(); act.setTitle('Sacbee - Dahl says Rams regretted knocking Alex Smith from game'); act.setLinkBack(surl); act.setDescription(' Knocking the starting quarterback from the game is generally the opposing team\'s objective.

The outside linebacker was due to count $2.87 million against the cap - too much for a non-starter. The new deal gives Haralson a $1.3 million salary with a chance to earn $1.7 million. News of the restructuring first was reported by <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/313823758366429184">NFL.com.</a> The 49ers are believed to be a little more than $6 million under the salary cap.</p> <p>Haralson was a starter from 2007-2011, but he was set to take on a backup role behind up-and-coming Aldon Smith before the 2012 season. It never got that far. Haralson suffered a torn triceps in the third preseason game and was lost for the season. However, he rehabilitated every day at the 49ers facility, went on road trips and remained a part of the 49ers' locker room, which is partly why the team wanted him back this year.</p> <p>The team's OLB starters are Smith and Ahmad Brooks. Haralson and a pair of 2012 draft picks, Darius Fleming and Cam Johnson, will compete for backup roles with any other pass rushers the 49ers acquire in the offseason.</p> <p>Newly acquired receiver Anquan Boldin is expected to make his first appearance in the Bay Area Wednesday when he takes his physical. There's a possibility that Boldin, who is due to make $6 million in 2013, will extend his contract, which also could create more salary-cap space for San Francisco.</p> <p>-- Matt Barrows</p> </div> </div> <div class="asset-footer"> <p class="categories"><strong>Categories:</strong> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/players/">players</a> <p class="tags"><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/mt/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=18&tag=Aldon%20Smith&limit=20&IncludeBlogs=18" rel="tag">Aldon Smith</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/mt/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=18&tag=Anquan%20Boldin&limit=20&IncludeBlogs=18" rel="tag">Anquan Boldin</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/mt/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=18&tag=Parys%20Haralson&limit=20&IncludeBlogs=18" rel="tag">Parys Haralson</a></p> <script type="text/javascript"> if (document.getElementById('gigyaShareBar_bottom') === null) { document.write('<div id="gigyaShareBar_bottom" style="margin: 10px 0; margin-bottom: 20px;"></div>'); Sacbee.load([ 'API', 'Ext.Gigya', 'Shortener' ], function() { var api = new Sacbee.API('f1ZXnae54o8tYnTMvIsstTgFz0EngrWUAosmBr3nTS5I0w2ZzygsIx9k7DeM5bEx'); Sacbee.Shortener.shorten('https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/2013/03/49ers-restructure-olb-parys-haralsons-contract.html', function(evt) { var lurl = evt.longURL; var surl = (evt.success) ? evt.shortURL : lurl; var act = new gigya.socialize.UserAction(); act.setTitle('Sacbee - 49ers restructure OLB Parys Haralson\'s contract'); act.setLinkBack(surl); act.setDescription(' The 49ers carved out more salary-cap space today when they restructured the final year of Parys Haralson\'s contract, a league source said.

Those compensatory picks leave San Francisco with 14 total selections heading into next month's draft. That's the most any team has had since 1997 when Miami also had 14 picks. The other two compensatories are in the seventh round. (See details below).</p> <p>No one expects the 49ers to end the draft with 14 picks. The team likely will pool them together and go after a few players they feel can help them right away (though the three compensatory picks cannot be traded). Where are the current holes on the roster?</p> <p>* <strong>Safety</strong>. The 49ers have several players in the mix at free safety, and new acquisition Craig Dahl certainly could start there when the new season begins. Still, it makes sense that the 49ers use one of their top picks on a safety - it's a good year for big-bodied hitters - who could learn the position behind Dahl. <em>(LSU's Eric Reid pictured above)</em></p> </div> <div class="asset-more-link"> Continue reading <a rel="bookmark" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/2013/03/rich-get-richer-49ers-awarded-three-extra-draft-picks.html#more">Rich get richer: 49ers awarded three extra draft picks</a>. </div> </div> <div class="asset-footer"> <script type="text/javascript"> if (document.getElementById('gigyaShareBar_bottom') === null) { document.write('<div id="gigyaShareBar_bottom" style="margin: 10px 0; margin-bottom: 20px;"></div>'); Sacbee.load([ 'API', 'Ext.Gigya', 'Shortener' ], function() { var api = new Sacbee.API('f1ZXnae54o8tYnTMvIsstTgFz0EngrWUAosmBr3nTS5I0w2ZzygsIx9k7DeM5bEx'); Sacbee.Shortener.shorten('https://web.archive.org/web/20130321213335/http://blogs.sacbee.com/49ers/archives/2013/03/rich-get-richer-49ers-awarded-three-extra-draft-picks.html', function(evt) { var lurl = evt.longURL; var surl = (evt.success) ? evt.shortURL : lurl; var act = new gigya.socialize.UserAction(); act.setTitle('Sacbee - Rich get richer: 49ers awarded three extra draft picks'); act.setLinkBack(surl); act.setDescription(' The 49ers today were awarded three extra draft picks, including a fourth-round selection, as compensation for the free agents -- such as Joshua Morgan and Blake Costanzo - they lost during the 2012 free-agency period.

The others are: Arizona, Buffalo, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Indianapolis, New Orleans, the Giants and Tampa.</em></p> <p>****UPDATE II***** Hasselbeck is reportedly close to a deal with the Colts.</p> <p>Who will join Colin Kaepernick and Scott Tolzien on the 49ers' quarterback depth chart in 2013? So far, the answer is unknown. The quarterback market has been mostly quiet during free agency, and it's likely to remain so early in the week while owners, coaches and general managers are at the annual league meeting in Phoenix. (One free-agent QBs, Ryan Fitzpatrick, also is in Phoenix; he's reportedly met with the Titans and Bengals).</p> <p>A year ago, the 49ers signed former Jim Harbaugh protege Josh Johnson, and he spent the offseason in Santa Clara. I spoke to Johnson today, who said he hadn't personally heard from the 49ers. He's visited the Bengals and said "a couple more teams" had expressed interest though he had no visits scheduled as of now. Last year he visited the 49ers and the Redskins. He was picked up by the Browns in late December.</p> <p>Johnson, who also played for the UFL's Sacramento Mountain Lions last year, said he wouldn't rule out the 49ers despite the fact they chose Tolzien over him at the end of the exhibition season. "It just depends on the situation," he said. "I'm just trying to find the best fit."</p> <p>Another name that has been linked to the 49ers is Tyler Thigpen. The Coastal Carolina quarterback has been working out alongside Kaepernick and a few other 49ers - including wideout A.J. Jenkins - at CES Performance in Atlanta since mid February.
