What were they even trying to accomplish here?  Why flex the o-linemen out wide?  Nobody thinks they're going to catch a pass.  Has anybody actually said what this play was supposed to accomplish, had it been successful?

Not sure if you've gotten an answer or not but Pat Macafee Darius Butler and AQ Shipley said based on what you can see based on lining your OL out wide with a speed guy, Dak running immediately after making the throw and the initial look the 9ers gave before the time out it likely was supposed to look something like:

1) Play designed assuming the 49ers rush none and drop 11 in coverage like teams usually do 2) Hook and lateral at the point of the catch, probably with Zeke or Dak 3) a throwback to the opposite sideline where you have a speed guy and linemen forming a seal like a screen

On paper may have worked but we'll never know because the 49ers called a time out after seeing the formation and afterwards when they came out in the same formation the 49ers of course rushed zeke immediately and blew the play up.

If it is Reich I hope we actually go all-out for a QB and trade up to #1 because my fear is the ultimate combo of mediocrity: Reich + Derek Carr. 

We'd be the Marvin Lewis Bengals; good enough for a playoff spot and even a division title every few years but ultimately doomed to the NFL's murky middle tier of teams not good enough to win it all but too good to ever be in position to draft that franchise-altering player. At least without getting insanely lucky in the draft.

    • Hornets up 11 after one. 36-25.  Foul trouble brewing though  Diabate has two Miller has three. 
    • I think Lane is spot on and I do respect his opinions.    ROUND 1:  Best value:  Edge, Wide Receiver, Cornerback.  I predict overdrafting OT and a run on edge will drop WRs and maybeCB  lower and a great value could land in our lap.  Could we do it again?  In the words of Brittany Spears, “Oops.” Corner?  Well, I think we will move Smith-Wade to FS at some point.  Smart, calls coverages.  Jackson is gone after 2026. . Get a nickel later, however, unless a stud CB falls. Please don’t draft TE here. Edge?  On paper, we are strong, but you can never have enough pass rushers.  We will leave awesome at one position that we may not have listed as a primary need: Edge, CB, or WR. ROUND 2:  Best Value: Linebacker.  I do not see us drafting another position here.  LB–Hill (longshot), Rodgriguez, Golday. Edge (second tier–Height, Jacas, Moore, Young, Howell–would be hard to overlook, but our GM is a former LB)  S A Haulcy is a darkhorse possibility. ROUND 3:  Best Value:  Defensive line. Halton (OK), Jackson (Fl. St), Durant (Penn State).   ROUND 4:  Best Value: Center.  Slaughter, Hecht, Jones, Lew, Coogan, Jones, Zuhn.  This is the only real option.  We should take our center in round 4. ROUND 5:  Best value:  They will be looking for a developmental OT here if not addressed sooner.  Jude Bowery ((BC), D. Crownover (RT-Tex AM), Wagner (RT-Notre Dame) seem promising.      This is the way.  Great summary and I feel its on the right wave length.
