49ers sign guard Zane Beadles to three-year deal (Yahoo Sports)

The San Francisco 49ers have landed an experienced left guard who could fit right in and replace departed Alex Boone. San Francisco signed Zane Beadles to a three-year contract Tuesday after he was released March 3 by Jacksonville in a move to create salary cap space. Beadles is a durable offensive lineman who has started all 16 games in each of the past five seasons - the last two with Jacksonville after he spent his first four seasons with Denver and started all but two games his rookie year.
