Rookies report to 4949 Centennial Blvd today! Huzzah!! There was much rejoicing!!! Or, then again, there wasn’t. The prevailing sentiment is the Niners are circling the shitter ready to take the downward spiral to the cesspool, but who am I to listen to prevailing sentiment? I mean really. If it was outrageous to think they were going to suck this year, I’d still think they were going to do well.
Other than that, these last couple preseasons have been just a clusterfuck of innuendo and animosity. The sooner this starts the better. Lots of talk of the potential of Arik Armstead. A guy getting a lot of talk however is Eli Harold, a guy who some saw as a first rounder. Safety Jaquiski Tartt also sounds like a player, but everyone is an all-pro when training camp starts. There will be booms, busts, and surprises.
Baalke has just completed his 5th draft. He didn’t draft for obvious need this draft, as WR, ILB, and CB were the prevailing thoughts going into the draft. Instead Baalke went DL, S, and ILB. 6 of the next 7 were offensive players (with a punter thrown in), but the thought is the lower you go, the longer the shot. We have a ton of UDFA WRs as well, along with a QB. Lots of bodies, but we are at the point where Baalke needs to start hitting on some offensive players. The team has a lot of talent, but as we’ve seen, Gore has gotten old and left, and Willis and J Smith retired among the other changes. The talent and experience level from just a couple years ago has decreased, but the team has gotten younger and faster.
The good news is the D line has a lot of decent players, the RB corps looks strong, and the WR group looks better by gaining Torrey Smith and losing Crabtree. We stood pat at QB, as the thought is Kappy has another year of experience to build on, but I was surprised we didn’t draft a backup along with Gaine Blabbert. Worrisome to me is the O line and CB. We hear a lot of encouraging things out of camp re Brandon Thomas and such, but the proof willl be in the pudding on that fateful Monday night, September 14. Talk is just that.
Who knew Geneoushire needed a backup idiot?
The team thought Kilgore would be ready for camp. He was playing well when he got hurt last year. Marcus Martin got thrown in and didn’t do well but that was predictable. Martin had been hurt himself and was only practicing, as a rookie, for a very short time. Can’t gauge Martin from that. Kilgore looks to be a better known quantity but that doesn’t mean Martin can’t be good. Of course it doesn’t mean he’ll be good either. I would feel a bit better if Kilgore was available.
Yeah, these injuries are still hurting the team. The line is the most vulnerable spot.
I’ve never defended the right to free speech on a blog, Bullit. I’ve blasted that concept since V was hell bent on killing my old blog. But you are too stupid to recognize that. You must be one of those 60 year old idiot savants. You don’t have a brain but you can type nonsensical bullshit at astonishing speeds.
How fucking stupid are you? Like NoFear, you make shit up to accuse me of. Typical neandethal fascist behavior. Stop fucking talking about me, or go give Skeebers shit for banning me, dumb ass. Otherwise shut yer mouth.
The question you need to ask is why is Skeebers so afraid of my opinion?
Nah, I don’t care, life is easier without the teen drama.
The question you have to ask yourself is why you waste your time worrying about the cancer blog. Bullit would engage a fire hydrant in a debate if he thought he could believe himself to be smarter than it. The fire hydrant wins that debate by saying nothing. You should learn from the hydrant.
hah! but what fun is that? yeah, i should just let it go. I feel like Al Pacino in GF III.
