Marcus Lattimore is retiring

Hate it for the kid.  McGahee coming back from one of the worst injuries I've ever seen game me hope for the kid, but no two people are the same and no two injuries are the same.  The 49ers rolled the dice and lost, but I'm glad Lattimore got to cash some NFL checks and receive top notch medical care during his rehab process.

Two things:

1) There is also a bit of a rumor that he just wanted out of the organization.  He'd not be the only RB unsatisfied there.  Frank Gore and Carlos Hyde are both above him and would cut his time substantially.

 

2)  Kind of glad about this.  There was so much hype about how great that team was at RB.  Gore is great, Hyde has underachieved, this guy never was, and so on and so forth.  I can't stand the Harbaugh 9'ers.

I'm hoping that he just wants out of the organization because all of the videos I have seen show he had been rehabbing, running, lifting, etc. since the year he was drafted without problems...

 

If we can shed DLo this offseason, I'd love for Lattimore to maneuver his way out of there and come on back to the Carolinas, lol.

49ers would have to relinquish the rights to him.

Could conceivably happen, but I wouldn't be too optimistic.

I hate injuries. One of my teammates from 9th to 11th grade was being recruited by several SEC schools all ACC schools. he was projected to be Marylands day one starter at LT (Maryland recruited him from the jump and he liked that) tore every ligament in his left knee. Came back Tore it again. Career over. Scholarship Out.

This was 2002, he was recruited to play and would have been in the backfield with Clarrett.  This guy was graded better then Clarrett, as well.  He was a beast to tackle, he ran like a freaking tank and you had no choice but to go low or get laid out.

2) Drushaun Humphrey, RB/LB, Toledo Rogers, 6-3, 240, 4.43.  The term "freak" is often used to describe him.  Put on an absolute show at the Ohio State camp last summer.  Can play a variety of positions and probably has more athletic ability than Andy Katzenmoyer if that's possible.  Wants to play TB in college.  Already committed to Ohio State.  5/3 update: As most people know by now, Humphrey died of a heart attack on 4/30 after a pickup game of basketball.  My heart goes out to those close to "Big Dru."

    • First of all the out was not caught because XL slipped and was the only person who could have caught that ball.  I'm not sure where you get that it was almost intercepted but go ahead and believe your story. The kick was in the direction we wanted the ball from the opening kickoff.  Do you think Fitzpatrick didn't try several kicks in that direction before the game and after half?  Do you think we just winged it.  Come on, OK so he missed one earlier.  Kickers can't adjust.  You make it sound like it was a wing and a pray. I saw the game.  Yes and we still got 21 yard from the running game.  We also got two first downs via that pass.  So it isn't like it was 100% we were going to run.   You have your blinders on and hate BY so much that you can't give him any credit because it defeats your narrative that he completely sucks.   What I have yet to here is you 100% for sure solution.  Which QB are you going to bring in that GUARANTEES that he'll be better than BY.  See the difference between you and me is I understand that he isn't the greatest QB to play the game.   But he has strengths and he continues to win whether you like it or not.  You and I have been on this forum for many years and agreed and disagreed on many topics.  I don't think I have ever seen you so filled with so much hatred for a player than BY.   I'm just going to leave it here to agree to disagree because you aren't going to change my outlook and I definitely am not going to change yours.  I do appreciate no personal attacks.  Someone said it earlier.  Ride with our game manager until a Mahomes falls into our laps. 
    • It's not the only issue. She said it was the "biggest" issue. lol 
    • The key difference being expectation. Jake was basically an afterthought of a free agent signing. Bryce is a guy we mortgaged the franchise on to be THE GUY. Not to mention a different era of football before all the rule changes to benefit the passing game. I don't care how we win either. I just realize that the odds of continuing to win in today's NFL with this level of QB play are very low. If I knew for sure that the Panthers had already decided to pursue other options at QB this off-season I could breathe a sigh of relief but of course they're not going to say that publicly.
