Perfect - sounds like a good chance to get another Nick Scott on our team.... We will have the best special teams in the league while letting every team we play throw it deep against us

That trade resulted in the following players... Jonathan Mingo (which I guess turned into a fourth round pick because of Dallas, which led to Etienne) and DJ Johnson... Please, enlighten me as to how we won that trade

Needing to move on from him because we were a dumpster fire (and still are) - I agree Saying we fleeced the 49ers is something... We 100% didn't (at least not yet). He was fully healthy the season he went there and the year after. Obviously last year didn't go too well for him on the injury front. If he continues to miss half a season or more the rest of the time with the 49ers, then I agree. Otherwise, we lost the trade

Nice, hopefully that is the last of having to watch Bartholomew be complete ass

Hmmm... Maybe he is right, but just reading your comment (I didn't listen to the podcast) makes it sound like Davis is upset he didn't touch the ball. Honestly, our coaching staff relied on CMC so much his last two to three years, it may not have only been CMC wanting to stay on. And while getting the ball six times in a row can be unusual, CMC was the rare player that was both the best running back and receiver on the team... I just think that speaks to CMC wanting to win and knowing that he was the best offensive player on the field for us. I still envision a parallel universe where Stanford didn't run CMC into the ground and he stays healthy for us his entire time playing for us.

Yeah.. I felt like he looked 80 years old like 30 years ago... Dude has aged terribly and I feel like he has to be pretty close to death's doorstep

And to think we could have traded burns, a pass rusher much worse than Parsons, for almost the same as Parsons... God we blew that chance

Nice! We desperately need him out there. Curious if we have a tight end/RB help block the left side with Icky (presumably) out vs jacksonville

Yikes, if we have no Icky or Lewis week 1, better have Bryce roll out to the right every single pass play or he might die...

Wonder what led to them deciding to remove his appendix. I know its mostly a useless organ, but weird timing to do it right now without a cause

I think it's a combination of that and other potential HC candidates wanted nothing to do with Tepper because of how much he wanted to be in control of all aspects of the football team.

Love Cam, but this statement right here resonates with me. The amount of times Cam would overthrow a RB on a swing pass, many times because he wanted to torpedo it in there instead of just lofting it, always drove me insane. In terms of the deep ball - we didn't have a legit deep ball threat after Smitty left for Baltimore - sorry, Tedd Ginn just running deep every play and having no other route he could run doesn't count. Didn't help we went from Chudz, a vertical passing playbook (think he ran some time of Air Coryell offense), to Mike "run, run, pass, punt" Shula. Cam did look good under Norv (Air Coryell again) and finally had a deep ball threat (DJ) until his shoulder died. After that, he couldn't really throw the ball beyond 20 yards. I actually thought Cam threw deep balls pretty well - it was the 15ish yard routes (which wouldn't have been that bad if we didn't have so many stone hands receivers) and the RB screen/swing passes that he struggled with IMO.

Easy - because Frank didn't have a choice. Tepper 100% wanted Bryce and that was never going to change. The better question is why did Tepper hire Frank knowing Bryce was not fit for his system

Or i could just go to one of the many "high seas" websites and watch the game. Or just go to a bar - there are enough that have bottled cheap beers for $4-5 or a bucket of cheap beers for like $20. Not sure why anyone pays for the NFL package in today's age

Yeah, it's like upgrading from a pile of elephant poo to a pile of horse poo. It's technically an upgrade, but is it really...

Sorry for double post

I don't know - he played for a wonky BS offense with Tennessee and I thought he had some red flags on his tape while playing for them. Not surprised he has struggled in the NFL

Guess I should have said active 53 + PS. First 4 or 5 dudes I saw we claimed were all WR & DB

Not sure why he drew interest - he is pretty awful

So our entire PS is WRs and CBs + Hooker...

Not surprised Fat Fhule would do something that moronic... Dude relied on bossing his players around and hoping they would listen to him in college - that crap doesn't work in the NFL

Hard to interpret something that way (even if it is accurate). Thielen knows the playbook and probably doesn't need as many reps, as say the rest of our receives who are rookies (Tet, Horn), 2nd/3rd year (XL, Coker, Tremayne), or were possible cut candidates (Renfrow, Moore). I probably wouldn't have focused as much on Thielen also when they needed a lot of info on all of the other receivers

Crazy to think we pretty much got equivalent trade value out of Thielen and Mingo...

Would rather have picked up some of his salary if we could keep our 5th round pick... Not sure what we are going to use our cap space on unless we plan to roll it over to next year
