MY HOPES. First, the ickey situation is super unfortunate. I think try to get a reasonable extension that allows to cut if his recovery is bad. Option being if Lewis or Hunt get hurt he can kick inside, however I think its reasonable to think with his lack of progress, and prognosis of that injury he may never be a LT again at the NFL level. Nymen should return hopefully as well as brady and let the best LT win. We HAVE to cut X. Its not even an option at this point. Guy is simply put not an NFL receiver. He can return kicks and stuff, but as one of our top 3 options, its no longer an option. Best I'd say is see if someone is willing to give peanuts for him, if not, just cut bait or keep him at best on the bottom of the roster. Kinda addressed in first, but Icky could be a long term option at guard...maybe depending on how his recovery from injury is. Try to resign mays, if not I'd be ok with taking a Center in the draft and sigh...letting corbett maybe play the position. LB, Get Rozeboom back, maybe not as a starter but definitely worth bringing him back and also Im a guy of the mind when guys perform well, rewards like attempting to retain go a ways amongst players to grow a positive reputation. I always say, you cant have all pros everywhere, but continue developing Wallace, draft a LB on day one or 2, and try to find high upside players who might be better utilized in our system vs where they came from. Chuba, definitely rely on him coming back, if not see if Etienne or Brooks take off. RB is not a position to pay a lot for in the NFL these days, utilize the depth we already have and grow from that. If you do anything in FA, its a similar Rico signing, someone falls into your lap and you can pay a prove it contract. LASTLY, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, the big thing I want to see happen is a run at a big time Pass rusher this offseason. I think we'll treat this as win now mode although I think our "win now" still is maybe at best an NFC Divisional...MAAAYBE championship game run. That said, the rumors of Trey Hendrickson do make sense, although personally I'm skeptical on how well he'll perform in a 3-4 as opposed to 4-3. Also wouldnt be surprised if there were significant trade proposal for Maxx Crosby. We will see though, a move like that would mark a huge sign that we are attempting to win right now.

Always a classy guy. Showed progress his final season here, but we can never fool ourselves, he would not be who he is staying here, he would have plateaued. Smartest thing he ever did was take the backup role in SF and learn in the Shannahan system. HE followed that to Minnesota where he had elite Recievers and a smart offensive head coach who operates a similar system. he developed there and now has the knowledge to go with the physical tools he has to succeed at a high level.

Its true, but its a game of just whether or not success or failure as to if your a genius or a moron.

legit just watched what happens...GENIUS CALL ON THAT FLEA FLICKER...in fuging blizzard, CANALES IS A MORON (when rico fuging sold hard instead of just taking the loss)

His career is on life support. If anyone offers anything, we take it.

By that logic is Adam theilen a pro bowler?

Slowik was who I wanted as our HC when we hired Canales. He clearly had an idea of how to maximize Strouds talent. sophmore slumps happen, but he fell off a cliff this year and I believe it can be due to getting rid of him.

In fairness, in everos scheme...NO ONE is a scheme fit. Considering our DBS play 10 yards off, and normal receivers run a 4.5 40...unless he can teleport to the QB in less than a second from snap its not gonna matter much

100%. If he chooses to coach next year, he will have a contract lined up with a team. IMO I think he'll take a year away before coming back. Hes not gonna go to a place thats in shambles (Cleveland or Miami), I doubt he takes something like Tennessee because its far more disfunctional than people say (They fuging fired Mike Vrabel after trading away AJ Brown and Derrick Henry then wonder why they suck). IMO, IFFF mcdermott takes a position itd be baltimore or surprisingly Las Vegas (gets to hand pick his #1 overall QB and a bajillion dollars in cap room to fix the roster)...maaayyybe Pittsburgh because I think the structure and organization would fit him.

no doubt, IF we ran Tmac/Thielen/Coker our offense would have been better. In fairness though, if we ran Tmac/a trashcan filled with used condoms/Coker it would still be more productive than having XL on the field.

nah, was a blessing in disguise cuzz they wouldnt have benched XL, Coker would have been a buried depth piece and never gotten opportunities.

dear god...I hope not. I dont mind anything about the protest or anything but Kaepernick succckkked. He was a singular read QB. I watched the guy throw for like 50 yards in a game because his first read was never open (yes...Im aware about Bryce young...Im not sold on him either). In all honesty I think the "protest" began with him throwing a temper tantrum because he was benched for blaine Gabbart (jesus christ you have to be BAAAAD for that to happen). I think he made up an excuse after he pouted on the sideline and it caught fire. That said, I dont mind bringing attention to the issues he did, and in fact I love how he went out and did things like help get ex black inmates suitable clothing to get jobs after incarceration, great poo. However, after that, football became a secondary thing to him and frankly, should be if he cares about the issue. I've used a lot of words to say, please god dont let us get a colin Kaepernick 1 read then run QB, todays NFL would absolutely break that dude in half.

good to hear, nevermind then. I just saw pitt and thought Tepp would LOVE to bring that here with his love for the steelers org. Im cool growing with Canales...but god, we cant keep doing the same poo on defense.

amazing center...we are getting there, but 1 center wont change it especially when we can return a decent center. Also remember, Cade Mays originally came as a OT/Guard, this was his second year at center, hes making HUGE strides EVERY year. DONT spend money on a position of want, we need to spend on positions of need
