    $$$ Impact of cutting David Johnson

    We won't let Drake go away after he has proven to be a perfect fit in KK's scheme. And he wouldn't get a better deal on the open market anyway. RBs just don't get paid these days. Nobody wanted Drake when he was available for pennies, and we got him for a late round pick. I can only imagine he'd...

    If not Lamb, Who?

    Well above average, but not an elite OL by any means. It's all about Roman's scheme and Lamar's explosiveness opening up huge holes and freezing the pass rush.

    Meet your new starting ILB

    Suggs can still stuff the inside run and lay the wood!

    Is Kingsbury a good coach for Murray?

    There is no way around KK getting another season. This isn't Wilks all over again. We were in all games until the very end outside of 2 games where we got whacked. Considering it's the first season with this offense and our defense being a total train wreck, it's not very surprising...

    Kyler Murray is a Rookie

    Thread title checks out. KM has had a superb rookie season until the bye, considering the cards he's been dealt: bad OL, WRs who can't seperate, rookie HC/OC getting his first NFL coaching experience. Since after the bye, defenses are totally crashing down on us. Our OL, that looked at times...

    The Telltale Indicator

    Thinking about Reddick. We could've taken a similarly athletic edge rusher in the late rounds to turn him into an ILB. How could Keim draft a 100% project player in the top 15? It's always a bit projection with rookies, but not to the degree we've seen with Reddick. Reddick was known for...

    Time to trade David Johnson

    This. He is like a WR or athletic TE that smoothly glides downfield, finds creases and beats almost every LB one vs one. He can't be 100% healthy if he isn't even used in that capacity. Drake has solid hands for a RB as well, but he is more of a screen and quick dumpoff RB. DJ is a much more...

    Thoughts on the Defense.

    We had to sell out against the run. The 49ers will run all over opponents that don't respect Shanny's highly effective zone blocking scheme. Unfortunately our aggressive run defense lead to what will ultimately prove to be Jimmy G's best two games of the season. However, since we hung in there...

    Coaching has cost us 3 weeks in a row

    Decision making will improve, give KK some time. He turned us from laughing stock of the league into a team that's been in every game right until the end. If you ask me that's not bad at all for a rookie HC with a rookie QB. We weren't even competitive last season. The defense needs major...

    What moves on D will move the needle the most?

    Too many uneducated guesses in here. I'm not the biggest fan of Vance Joseph, but his plan against the 49ers was solid and spot-on. We held Tevin Coleman to 14 yards on 12 carries! Sold out to stop the run, which was the right call as evidenced by a pair Jimmy G's boneheaded picks and the 49ers...

    Maxx Williams extended

    Very strong blocker, so I like this signing. However, we need a more athletic threat at TE to pair with Maxx. Basically what Clay used to be, and not his old version that immediately falls down when catching a pass with nobody near him. The 7th round pick Wilson was supposed to be that, but I...

    Budda Baker

    Kittle is imo the best all-around TE in the NFL. He is on a level with Kelce and Ertz as a crafty route runner. Might actually be the phyiscally most gifted among them. Once he has you turned, his athleticism/long strides will take over and he is a load to bring down in space. Compared to Kelce...

    Remember when we were wondering if PP

    Baker played his ass off, made some great plays and obviously got beat by imo the best/most complete TE in the NFL. PP subtly escaped tackles and couldn't cover Sanders at all.

    AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

    Well, after this great TD catch-and-run, he should have earned his spot in 3 and 4 WR sets. He may be behind the likes of Byrd, Keeshawn, Pharoh or Sherfield in some technical areas of the game, but neither of those have provided a splash play like that in half a season. Sometimes a spark is...

    Is it just me

    Chandler Jones gets held on pretty much every important passing down in every single game. It gets flagged about 3% of the time...

    3-4-1 headed for 3-5-1 - time to trade PP21?

    That's not what I question. I'm sure Keim could get a 1st from a contender right now, and may even another 2nd or 3rd. But what I question is who Keim would draft with that pick... Bottom line: Keep our best players and try adding. Not vice versa.

    Robbie Anderson????

    Would be an upgrade over Byrd in that very same role. Would he be worth it though? If the pick is right, why not.

    OT: Trade deadline tracker 2019

    Please make this happen SK! I know there is another thread about Leo, and it seems that he is vastly underrated on this forum. The stats don't stand out, but the amount of pressure he gets on the QB from the interior and his anchor against the run would make him a great addition. It's just that...

    my too early 2020 offseason thread

    What's this discussion all about? Leonard Williams was a legit top 10 talent and still is. He is playing very good on a bad team. Pro Bowl potential. He is miles better than any DL we have.

    Giants are healthy this week

    PP will be a big boost for us and make the defense better. He will probably limit Golden Tate to some dumpoffs and screens. But PP can do nothing about Barkley and Engram. A generational RB and the probably fastest TE in the NFL. The Giants don't have many strengths, but they mesh perfectly with...

    David Johnson

    On his receiving ability alone DJ is easily a top 10 RB in the league. He has a nose for the endzone as well. Despite our putrid OL units over the years DJ has been money at the goalline. Coupled with his receiving skills this puts him into top 5 conversation. It's true that he doesn't look as...

    H. Reddick was a DE, B. Williams was a RB, and S. Keim is a drunk

    Keim/BA/Bettcher outsmarted themselves with Reddick. He was a productive edge rusher that could've been a nice fit opposite Chandler Jones, especially when Golden went down. Had a great motor and elite athleticism to work with. This alone doesn't justify the high pick, but if he had bulked up...

    Shane Ray works out for Cardinals

    Would absolutely take a flyer on him. Suggs had some splash plays for us and is already on pace for 12 sacks, which is amazing at his age. Although you can tell his snap count is too high right now and he gets attacked in the run game. Brooks Reed is awfully slow and clumsy. Ray had a good...

    Cardinals are signing LB Ramik Wilson

    He is a physical thumper in the run game, has lots of starter experience and at 27 shouldn't be washed up yet. Won't solve our issue of covering TEs, that's for sure. But maybe he can substitute for Reddick on run downs. Our DL can't hold the LOS and we need someone at LB who can beat blocks...

    Bucannon signs with Buccaneers

    Buc did well initially at LB until teams figured out how to attack him. There is no doubt we ruined him. Could've been a great tone-setting SS for us. Same can be said about Reddick playing ILB after playing DE at Temple, or Nkemdiche in a 3-4 front. Can't force 1st round talent out of position...
