Monday at 4pm marks the deadline for teams to franchise their impending free agents, but don't expect the 49ers to use theirs on Michael Crabtree , Mike Iupati , Frank Gore , Chris Culliver or Perrish Cox , meaning they'll become unrestricted free agents on March 10. As of now, San Francisco has a little under $2M in cap room, and with Stevie Johnson on the bubble to either take a pay cut or be released, the 49ers stand to gain some flexibility, but not enough to warrant a franchise tag. Michael Crabtree alone would eat up almost $12M if the franchise tag were placed on him.
