After signing Carr, the 49ers are going to dump their former starter Shaun Hill. Career record is 10-6, passer rating of 87.3. 23 TDs and 11 INTs. His numbers are GOOD. But the 49ers want to get rid of him.

Worth a look? Hell yea I say.

They are going to allow him to seek a trade, who knows what teams asking price will be.

Obviously, the 49ers consider certain numbers irrelevant. Hill appears to be expendable because of a matter of style. In offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye's offense, the 49ers want to feature a power-running game and complement that with a vertical passing game. The 49ers' coaching staff apparently is more comfortable with the similar styles of Smith and Carr as their top two quarterbacks.

That sounds familiar. Wonder what makes them think Hill is incapable of playing in this style of offense?

Personally, I think he's the best quarterback on that roster. It is mind-boggling that they would prefer Carr to Hill.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
