The Facts:
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."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to ESPN.com insider Len Pasquarelli, 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. ... Sounds like a fair deal given Gore's past knee and shoulder issues -- and the fact he emerged as the team's best player last season.
