"Former Rams and Cardinals tight end Anthony Becht is visiting the 49ers, the team said, and I think he could fit.

The 49ers drafted and then released blocking tight end Bear Pascoe in 2009. Unable to find a suitable replacement, the 49ers carried only two tight ends on their roster all season, one fewer than expected. Vernon Davis excels at blocking and receiving, with backup Delanie Walker more in the H-back mold.

Adding a tight end with Becht's blocking credentials could provide the 49ers with more options from a power running standpoint. Becht played about 40 percent of the Cardinals' offensive snaps last season, more than I would have expected. He is an unrestricted free agent."-ESPN

got this off of the ESPN FA Blog. I would like having Becht signed because he's just like adding another OL for running downs and could give Gore bigger holes. And Becht has good hands and could catch all those dump passes Alex Smith loves to throw. Not a huge signing, but a good one to help the team.

Eh, I don't see this making any kind of an impact either way. IMO, dude is just fill-in roster fodder.

true but at least he could line up alongside whoever our RT is and help him block lol.

I like both of our TEs more than him.

Becht would just provide some extra blocking during the power running schemes. VD and Walker are definitely better than Becht, but Becht could do the dirty work. Anyway, it looks like he won't be signing with the 49ers because he left without a contract and then went to visit the Raiders.

^ Not a big deal, cuz like I said I don't think he would have made any kind of impact. Delanie Walker seems adequate enough as the #2 TE. If a warm body TE for depth is all Frisco needs, they could get that via undrafted FA's.

Yup. 49ers should bring in Shawn Andrews from the Eagles and see if he's worth it.
