Gameday Week 15: 49ers vs Dolphins
The postseason is a year away. Win or lose the only thing they're playing for today is pride. Another opportunity to advertise your wo...

Hello everyone and welcome to the divisional round of the NFC playoffs. The red hot Packers come into Levi's stadium with a 4 game winn...
From what I hear/read the knock on Nugent is weight. He is light. My two favorites are Cody Schrader and Evan Anderson. Hopefully Schrader is a Bobby Turner pick. I can see Anderson making the PS for a couple of years but by 26 about 20 lbs lighter he could become a pure run stopper.
ReplyDeleteNice, Schrader should make the team as I don't think he'd clear waivers but I think Anderson for sure is at least on the practice squad with what they paid him.
DeleteAbove comment is mine
ReplyDeleteYeah, Anderson seems like an interesting player. One reporter said that he could be a DJ Jones type player. I know, that at this point it's an excaturated comment, but I'll be following his progress in TC.
ReplyDeleteHe's built like a refrigerator.
DeleteDang! exaggerated ^
DeleteAES
DeleteI like Anderson myself.
I like the UDFA haul - I could see a few of those guys making the PS and contributing over the years.
ReplyDeleteAccording to
ReplyDelete@bcondotta
, the #49ers have kept in touch with former #Seahawks S Jamal Adams, with interest of adding him to the roster
That's a shocker for mine
To play Star perhaps?
DeleteI'm assuming but I can't stand that dude. He's probably the most overrated, overhyped loudmouth in the league.
DeleteSomething I have been contemplating - the rumours that the 49ers were shopping Deebo don't seem to stop, so I'm thinking there must have been some truth to them, but they didn't receive an offer they liked.
ReplyDeleteNow the draft is over and the team didn't add an OT... but there are still rumours swirling that Deebo may yet be traded.
I wonder if the 49ers would consider a player for player (+ picks) trade? Especially one that nets them a potential starting OT? Doubt it happens, but I wonder if that would tempt the 49ers?
I am beginning to believe that they really expect McKivitz to take a step up this season. After the 24 season if he doesn't make a measurable improvement they will draft/trade for a RT and use McKivitz as their swing OT in the last year of his contract.
ReplyDeleteThat makes sense.
DeleteI don't see them trading Deebo or Aiyuk at this point. I think the players in jeapordy of making the roster could get moved. Players like Mitchell, Gray, Latu, Thomas, Mason, Zakelj....
ReplyDeleteI don't see them trading Latu. KS likes to keep 4 TEs on the 53. As of today I think they only have 4 under contract. A question for you, who do you think will be the backup FB now that Dwelley is gone?
ReplyDeleteNot sure there is one. No time to train somebody either.
DeleteI think it will be Willis.
DeleteBut I also think they'll start using s FB a little less.
Yea, I was thinking they may phase out the traditional FB role for maybe adding another WR like Pearsall instead.
DeleteOr Cowing
DeleteSchrader has the size, blocking ability and is a really good receiver. He could fill that roll. He also would be a more effective runner than Juice.
DeleteI always get nervous about projecting RBs to be FBs - run blocking on the move is a very different skill set that most RBs don't have much (if any) experience in. It's why I think it is easier for TEs to make the transition, especially TEs that have experience being an H-Back/ move TE.
DeleteCoach,
DeleteSchrader is listed at 5'9" and 214 lbs. Juice makes his bones as being a great lead blocker with the ability to catch, but that's an exception to the rule. I was hoping for Dallin Holker because he, like Juice may have been able to successfully convert from TE to RB. Maybe they address the Juice position next year.
I liked the UDFA's this year, Schader, Anderson and Pline all look like guys that might stick.
ReplyDeleteInterestingly enough... Schrader and Isaac are both rb's that are 1 cut runners that are solid receivers and descent in pass pro.
I hope Puni can snatch a starting spot this year. I think he provides a potential upgrade at every position not labeled LT, and I don't rule him out as RT, even if I don't think RT is not the worst position on the line.
The more I hear/read about QB Tanner Mordecai the more I think he might beat out Brandon Allen for #3 QB or at least make the PS. Strong arm and runs a 4.4 forty
ReplyDeleteI also have read some upbeat stories on the guy. I hope he beats out Allen.
DeleteGeorge
DeleteAppears Kyle's evolving his game. You've said you think he's going to scheme runs for Purdy. Added Cowing. Signed a 4.4 UDFA qb. Look out world.
DeleteI think Puni has a chance to win the RG spot this year, and long term be the starting LG or C.
ReplyDeleteGonna be tough beating out Feliciano. Both him and Deebo probably will miss time to injuries so he might get his opportunity this year.
ReplyDeleteGoing to be tough for any of the rookies to win a starting job, but I also think there are a few that will be in the mix for a starting spot in TC. One of the benefits of drafting guys that are already pretty well developed.
Delete"One of the benefits of drafting guys that are already pretty well developed."
ReplyDeleteYeah, I believe that the 49ers learned this painful lesson in drafting Lance.
Could well be.
DeleteI still wonder whether Lance will eventually turn out to be pretty good. Part of why he didn't work out with the 49ers was his level of readiness, but a larger part was just bad luck for Lance - multiple injuries and the 49ers struck gold on Mr Irrelevant.
Lance was QB3 for Dallas last year. If he is still the QB3 in 24, it may not bode well for him going forward (?).
DeleteCody Schrader kind of reminds me of Frank Gore Sr. Gore ran the 40 in 4.58 while Schrader ran it in 4.61 but more important for a RB Schrader ran the 10 yard split in a above Avg. 1.55. Like Gore he is short and stocky, has great vision and is a good receiver. Like Gore Schrader has a great work ethic and regardless of Gore's wonderlic score they are both extremely smart football players.
ReplyDeleteCoach, I've thought that as well. Nice to see you mention it.
