That is really gonna be an issue with any of the non-offensive guru candidates, TBH.

What almost no candidate has is the established track record of success that Harbaugh does.

His OC/DC during his 49er days were Vic Fangio and Greg Roman.   Fangio is available, I think and Roman is about to lose Jackson in Baltimore, so he may be willing to walk.

Jim using Tepper as leverage to get a stupid amount of money from Denver is his best play here 

Which is probably what’s happening here

Maybe, but I dunno, man. I don't think Denver is a good situation. Unless Harbaugh is absolutely sure he can help Russ bounce back. I see that more as a Payton thing than a Harbaugh thing.

No to number 3 at pick 8 or 9. Sorry but the history of 1st round TEs is terrible. Hockenson is finally having a really good year in his fourth year. The top 8 TEs this year are Hockenson, two 3rd rounders, two 2nd rounders, one 5th rounder, one 4th rounder and one 1st rounder that was signed as a FA after a disappointing 5 years with the team who drafted him. Njoku is #9, but he’s had a pretty disappointing 6 years. The next 6 TEs are 2nd, 4th, 5th, 3rd, UDFA and 2nd.

Three 1st round picks in the top 15 TEs by yards and one of the three is having a good year with a new team. Until this year, all 3 of the 1st round TEs were disappointing based on being 1st round picks. History isn’t kind to the past decade of 1st round TEs.

Yea, I'm in the "never draft a TE high ever" camp.

It feels hella disrespectful to be talking to coaches about a vacancy while you have a head coach preparing the team for a game. This conversation couldnt wait ONE WEEK? 

Pat McAfee had a really good analogy about how the NFL works - he compared players (and by extension coaches) to a stick of gum.

A team will chew you until the flavour is gone then spit you out and reach for another stick - it might not be as flavourful, but they'll always be more gum.

It's a cutthroat business - everyone who's in the league knows this.

Yeah neither do I. I don’t think the Harbaugh/Tepper meeting leak is by mistake though. Have it known you just met with maybe the most aggressive, wealthiest owners in the league right out of the gate

Sign Harbaugh 

Sign Brady

Draft Meyer in the first 

Superb owl

LOL, if Brady is anywhere else besides TB next year it'll probably be with the Raiders, seeing as how his old buddy McDaniel is the head coach there.  Also could see him going to the 49ers for a year.  Unless hes just always dreamed of playing for Harbaugh or something I don't see that happening.  

 

Stranger things have happened in the NFL though, so who the hell really knows?

oh definitely. Harbaugh is cunning and I have no doubt he has a plan for all of this in one way or another.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
