He's Back!

 

Free agent WR Deebo Samuel is signing back with the 49ers, sources say. The former Commanders and SF pass-catcher returns where it all began.

1-year, up to $7M in a deal done by Tory Dandy of Athletes First.

Camp Report

 

Nick Wagoner gives a great breakdown on De'Zhaun Stribling’s day at practice and where he sees him lining up:

“Rookie De'Zhaun Stribling was already making a positive first impression and that continued on Wednesday. He’s fast but has a smooth speed that seems to allow him to accelerate and decelerate with little issue. He’s also big enough and unafraid to go over the middle. Had him down for five more catches Wednesday, including a nice job climbing the ladder on a high pass over the middle from Adrian Martinez. It’s hard to say how things will shake out in terms of alignment but Stribling is working all three spots right now. My early guess: If Pearsall misses time, they’d like to go with Kirk or Demarcus Robinson at 'Z' and let Stribling handle the 'Y.'”

Niners are expected to have their first practice in full pads on Friday according to

Wagoner.

Caught In The Middle

 

Back To The Bay?

 

Adam Schefter is reporting that Vita Vea has requested a trade from the Bucs. From a source: he wants to go to a California team (Vea attended high school 6 miles from Levi's Stadium) or the Raiders. Should Lynch make the move and what would it cost?

Defensive Changes

Here’s how I think Raheem Morris will affect change to the 49ers defense: Base 4-3: LDE : Mykel LDT : Alfred RDT : West RDE : Bosa WILL : Greenlaw MIKE : Warner SAM : Dugger Then it’ll shift to this LDE : Dugger LDT : Mykel NOSE : West RDT : Alfred RDE : Bosa WILL : Greenlaw MIKE : Warner Or LDE : Mykel LDT : Alfred NOSE : West RDT : Bosa RDE : Dugger WILL : Greenlaw MIKE : Warner  

Handicapped

Sam Darnold in 2025: led the NFL in turnovers (20) led the NFL in EPA lost on turnovers (-100.2) his 20 turnovers included: #1 most fumbles #2 most fumbles lost #3 most INTs and Seattle still went 14-3 & won the Super Bowl. How likely do you think they can do that again?
