I'm wondering if Kyle is thinking of bringing Quan back. granted, he's slow and doesn't ideally fit the offensive scheme he runs, but at a cheap price; he's well worth it.

never heard of Q having issues with the FO

solid hands, above average blocker, a proven winner, and a leader of men..would love if this were to happen. i think we'll be loaded with burners and dudes who can get downfield, having a dude like like quan who we could always count on during those 3rd-and-intermediate situations would be a cherry on top.

all this talk about WRs and and a new QB got me hella excited to see Los finally play where the the defense can't just cheat and load the box assuming that the our QB is incompetent and inaccurate

So barkley starting? [emoji]128064[/emoji] Or sunshine still commanding this offense

if anyone's given the keys to this offense, please let it be Hoyer.



sunshine should be given keys to the golf cart that transports team laundry.

 

[red81]

sunshine isn't on the team. he's a free agent.

hoyer is the presumed starter at the moment, but i still believe there's a better chance than not that cousins is the starter week 1. kyle is determined to get his guy.

Mr Snyder would like to have a talk with you

 

[red81]

This is a battle of attrition. Patience.

I really hope we don't give up the #2 just to get Cousins.

I would however trade a second rounder plus Ahmad Brooks for him

Wonder if lynch waits to see what the browns do on draft day. If they take Garrett, maybe trade that number 2.. But if Myles falls to us then hmmmm

A piece from Peter King's MMQB. Juice(Kyle Juszczyk) took less to play under Kyle. 

The 49ers signed fullback Kyle Juszczyk to a four-year, $21 million contract. At an average value of $5.25 million a year, that’s more than double the next-highest fullback deal (Ryan Hewitt, Cincinnati, $2.5 million a year).

Juszczyk (pronounced “YOOZ-check”) carried the ball seven times in his four years as a Raven, for a grand total of 25 yards. But this play—his last rush for Baltimore, part battering ram, part athlete—gives you part of the idea why he got the big dough:

 

“Talking to teams, that play was pretty big, I think,” said his agent, Joe Linta.

“I think that play’s probably a big reason for the money I got,” Juszczyk said. “I think it showed my power, and a little bit of me as an athlete.”

Amazing story, really. Juszczyk was an unknown from Harvard in January 2013 when he got his big break: Senior Bowl director Phil Savage, widely respected in NFL circles, invited him to the late January showcase, and Juszczyk performed well. He caught 97 balls out of the backfield in limited duty for Baltimore, and his ability to run routes and block and play well on special teams caught the eyes of several teams in free agency. With the market flush with cash—the 32 NFL teams were an estimated $1.1 billion under the cap entering free agency—young players with a skill set were going to make money. Linta aimed high. He said one team would have paid Juszczyk more than the Niners did (the Jags, Eagles, Bills and Jets also were in competition), but two things swayed the 25-year-old former college tight end: He loved what he heard about San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan’s offense and the multiple ways he might be used, and he and his girlfriend loved the thought of living and working in California.

But the money … Even to player (“surreal,” Juszczyk said) and agent, it was a little bit of a wow. “When I told the teams where I thought the market on Kyle was,” Linta said, “some of them threw up in their mouths a little bit. When we got the deal, the funniest line from one of the teams was, ‘Joe, you got a YUGE-check for that kid.’” Though the cap has risen 39 percent in the past six years—from $120M in 2011 to $167M in 2017—the fact that the Niners paid Juszczyk double what a traditional fullback makes was pretty eye-popping.

San Francisco GM John Lynch said Juszczyk should rightfully be called an “OW”—offensive weapon—now rather than a fullback. It’s likely Shanahan will use him on a special team or two, as a blocking back, as a wheel-route specialist out of the backfield, and either as a second tight end/H-back in some formations, and possibly split out very occasionally. Instead of running seven times in four years, he might have 70 rushes and 70 catches in an average Niner season. “My role will be very diverse,” he said. “It will involve blocking and touching the ball, for sure. But one of things they emphasized was what I do might not always be seen by the fans, but there are other ways you can contribute to winning, like pass protection.”

Teams don’t pay pass-protecting backs $5 million a year. So the bull’s-eye will be on Shanahan to build a major role in the offense, and for Juszczyk to produce.

This is true: #Chiefs are signing former Philly DT Bennie Logan, per sources. Could be replacement for Poe.

 

[red81]

Starting to see more people mocking Solomon Thomas to us at 2. I like it. He'd play strongside defensive end IMO.

 

[22stylez]

how does solomon thomas fit with deforest and arik up front red?

 

[Deleted member 185039]

Some people take less to prove themselves and others it just isn't about the money. They want to win. 

 

[red81]

to keep it simple, you put thomas at the edge where ahmad brooks played. defo and AA go inside.

 

[22stylez]

Is thomas an aldon smith type ON FIELD player we've been missing?

 

[red81]

 

[22stylez]

How far is the gap as far as talent between Garrett and Thomas.

 

[moe200069]

if he's anything like strahan....


ME GUSTA

 

[red81]

the gap in pure raw talent? astronomical.

the gap as productive football players in this moment? not big.

if you told me thomas had the better career, i wouldn't be surprised. myles=higher ceiling, thomas=higher floor

Nice. Thomas looks like a high character guy too. Definitely a lynch guy

 

[red81]

yup, he definitely seems like a lynch guy.

one of thomas best attributes is his heavy hands and how good he is at consistently landing his punch inside his opponents chest plate. that initial impact jars the tackle backwards.
