The 49ers are expected to meet with a number of prospects prior to next month's NFL Draft, including wide receiver Michael Crabtree, offensive tackle Michael Oher and defensive tackle B.J. Raji.

After the Steelers didn?t welcome back Marvel Smith this winter, the veteran decided he?d continue his career near his most faithful supporters. Smith agreed to a two-year deal Monday to return to his native Bay Area with the 49ers, who expect him to be their starting right tackle, according to an Associated Press report.

Free agent OT Marvel Smith, the former Steelers Pro Bowl standout has agreed on a multiyear contract with the 49ers, according to an ESPN report on Friday. Details of the contract, confirmed by sources close to Smith, were not yet available. But in a deal that protects the 49ers if Smith suffers further back problems, the nine-year veteran can earn more than $10M, if he is healthy for the first two seasons of the contract.

The 49ers on Friday terminated the contract of veteran and often injured offensive tackle Jonas Jennings, as reported by Yahoo.com. Jennings spent the past four seasons with the 49ers, appearing in just 23 games during that span. He was limited to five games or fewer in three of the four seasons.

San Francisco quarterback Shaun Hill said on Friday that he wasn't bothered by the team's courting of Kurt Warner last month. "College was the same way. That's just the way it's always been and I guess that's all I know," Hill said. "I don't get sensitive about stuff like that. I just show up and try to do the best I can." Hill is 7-3 as a starter and his 90.5 passer rating last season ranked ahead of notables such as Eli Manning (86.4), Jay Cutler (86.0) and Brett Favre (81.0). "He's a future Hall of Famer," Hill said of Warner, who ultimately re-signed with the Cardinals.

The 49ers will unveil their new uniforms during a draft party, but they won't actually hit the field until the 2010 season. This is from the NFL in regard to the procedure for changing uniforms: "A club must give written notice and details thereof to the League by March 1 of the year prior to the year in which it wishes to change and must submit the final design and physical samples of the uniforms to the League office for approval by November 1 of that same year."

The San Francisco Chronicle reported on Friday morning that the 49ers could show interest in Torry Holt if he can be had for the right price. The Chronicle speculated that Holt would be released by the Rams by next week, but St. Louis cut him loose on Friday afternoon.

The 49ers on Tuesday restructured the contract of quarterback Alex Smith, as reported by Yahoo.com. Terms were not disclosed. Smith was selected first overall in the 2005 draft, and signed a six-year, $49.5M deal.

The 49ers have signed quarterback Damon Huard and linebacker Takeo Spikes. Huard was recently cut by the Chiefs, while Spikes spent last season with San Francisco after being released by the Eagles prior to the 2008 season.

The 49ers have denied making quarterback Kurt Warner a contract offer prior to his re-signing with the Cardinals. There were reports that San Francisco offered more than the $23 million contract Warner signed with Arizona, but general manager Scot McCloughan says that no offer was made.
