He's not as talented or athletic as you'd want in a starting left tackle, but he's got some experience and plays with really solid technique.

Chris Spielman talked a lot yesterday about how Everson Griffen was trying to set him up for a pass rush move and he wasn't taking the bait. That's smart football, and you love having that kind of intelligence in a left tackle.

He might not be a long term solution, but it was a whole lot better than watching Greg Little stand out there looking like he didn't have a clue what he was doing.

Scott is everything you could ask from a backup. We still don't have a long term answer which is just another year.

Schofield did a half decent job in place of John Miller yesterday. Again, I hesitate to place too much creedence on that because it was against the Lions, but hey...

I feel like we might have a couple of decent depth pieces.

I just wish we had better starters in front of those depth guys.

Here's to hoping we resign Moton, and keep Scott as a real good backup. Couple that with Daley getting more time and for the love of god, find a decent (not even good just better) center and we will be light years better on the line. I know Tackle is the sexiest part of the line because of price, but our middle has been absolutely atrocious this year. I cant remember the middle ever looking as bad as it has. Chris Reed is the Hurney of lineman in my book.

I thought the line looked solid until Daley left and then it got dicy. Maybe Schofield looked a little better next to Moton? Not sure, think I remember him getting beat a few times.

I'm completely with you, our starters need to be better going forward. This unit is a mess.

You spend way too much time concerned with things that didn't happen. 

Anytime we acknowledge how good of a pick CMC was, we have to make sure we add the caveat every single time that Gettleman tried trading up for Fournette in that draft, in order to discredit it.  That's the equivalent of "Good thing Burns was there or else we would have drafted Greg Little with our first!!".

Daley's got a concussion. Wouldn't put too much faith in being able to rely on him for the future.

He's good, but I don't think his body is going to hold up.

      Many layers my frend- Panthers had a draft recently. They picked 4 defense players. Each player picked 11, 22, 33, 55 as their number. For some players that number match the round or pre-draft round rank, example- Prince was a 3rd rounder and choose 33. Nic was a 1st rounder on some mock drafts and Dan Morgan said they had him as a 1st, he picked 11. Cam Jackson recently switched his number to 55, same as draft and has been telling Dave he wants to be special over and over.  The 44 was to add GOAT feels, thoughts, and more intrigue to this rookie phenomenon. X files was cause it was a great TV show and maybe it was playing when this theory came together.......   I hope this helps!

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      The best things Purdy has are certainly important tools for any QB. His accuracy his timing his decision making etc. I feel like he is a high end Teddy Bridgewater. You can compete and win in the regular season with this especially in a weakened NFC but where his limitations come into focus is when you are trying to contend for a Super Bowl you are going against elite and in some instances generational QB's like Mahomes. And when the time has come for him to go up against Mahomes he simply can't get it done. Now certainly he is not alone in that regard and people will point to another highly regarded QB such as Josh Allen who also cannot get by Mahomes. But the difference I see is Allen is not IMO at a phsyical disadvantage in that matchup whereas Purdy is. And that is with what had been to this point a comically stacked roster around Purdy and let's be clear we cannot understate that regardless of which side of the fence we land on in this debate. Purdy has had a top 5 roster and a top 5 coach. And the last time they went to the Super Bowl they leaned on McCaffrey extremely heavily. Now with what they are having to pay him and divert limited resources elsewhere they face a steep climb to get back to the Super Bowl let alone actually win it.

      Lonzo mentioned Melo going to the Clippers, but he also said we would draft Dylan Harper and he isn't making it to 4.
