Sort of off topic, actually they have all NFC West projected starters but what do you guys think of this Whiner team according to this? Or any other teams?

Some recognizable names still present, but they've lost a ton.
Guys like Davis, Dockett, and Boldin are getting old. Kaepernick's talent is in question (not his athleticism). How will Bowman come back after all this time? They are perhaps the thinnest team in the division in terms of depth, and with a rookie coach stepping in, it should be a tough year for them.

I think they are still loaded. They've got some young talent that should help ease some of their losses.

Right Tackle Anthony Davis is going to sit out the 2015 season.

I'll be back in a year or so.. I'll be 26 or 27 years old. I'm taking this time to allow my Brain and Body time to heal and recoup. - Anthony Davis

Iupati and Davis aren't going to be easy to replace on that offensive line. The Niner's look poised for a Texans like collapse.

Davis might be difficult to replace but that 3rd rounder they drafted last year should replace Iupati. I remember he would have been drafted much higher if he didn't injure his knee training for the draft.

I know many here are happy about Iupati, but he was on the decline in San Fran.
Even stats.com has him giving up 8 sacks last year.
