Meanwhile, the QB position remains the big prize for the franchise. The Garoppolo deal is still floating around out there, Cutler and Hoyer are skulking around looking for work, and shit, Kappy and Ponder are creeping around the edges of the light near 4949 Centennial Blvd. Shanahan has said he doesn’t want to get a stop-gap guy, but really, the options are fairly limited. Word is, Shanny likes him some Garoppolo, so we may be trading our #2 pick. Gutsy move, but he is young and, well, young.
The guys I mentioned are either unproven, proven mediocrities, or just not Aaron Rodgers. Or even Matty Ice. Cousins isn’t going anywhere. Shanahan did well with RG III in Washington, and Schaub in Houston. He CAN turn, if not shit to gold, then crap to decency. However, that doesn’t clear things up in the QB department.
I really don’t want to see us draft a QB with the 2nd pick. On the off chance Myles Garrett is there, I’d jump on that in a heartbeat. Watson? Man, he sounds good, looks good, has the tools, but is a huge risk. And Trubinski is even more green and more of a risk. The rest are 3rd rounders. Stay away from QBs this draft. So who do we get, if not Garrett? Yet another D lineman? We are apparently going 4-3, so another body on the line could be in order. Stanford’s Solomon Thomas springs to mind. He climbed up the draft board after his dominant game in the Ty-D-Bowl, or whatever the fuck it was.
Jonathan Allen is also available at what I’d assume to be as DT if we took him. Both are disruptors that could give the line a much needed jolt of electricity. Other than that, I’m ultimately curious about what the hell is going to happen these next couple months.
Forty Niners Forever 
Yeah chuck I am running out of things to say. This is truly a dead time of year for football. Got my fingers and toes crossed that we do something good in both FA and the draft. And, I really don’t give a fuck who we take in the draft as long as we get some good players.
Yeah get a new QB someone not named Kap. I’m sick of his BS. If he could produce in the red zone I would forgive him. That’s the key get a guy who can connect with good receivers in the red zone. If a guy can’t do that than he’s not worth much at the pro level.
Sick of his act too, time to move on. TO should be HOF no question.
Just my thoughts …….I hate lists and comparing present players to former players. TO should be in the Hall of Fame. Apparently he’s a good bowler too.
New coaches

once again most of them are young. They say there is strength in numbers and It looks like we are getting there.
Not much to choose from signing the HC so long after the season ends. Biggest question mark for me is the DC, but choice was limited. I wondered aloud last year if they weren’t better off going 4-3 hybrid because they didn’t have a true NT. In any event this year will be all change, O and D schemes, players, coaches, at least it will be different after the Baalke years.
I’m looking forward to seeing it evolve.
They are already attracting a top DT for a visit and that’s a huge difference right there.
Niners taking a look at a free agent DT:

i dunno this guy seems like more of a risk than not. His stats are not that good.
For a team that’s young like the Niners , free agents are expensive and are not always very useful. Besides getting injured some just are past their best years. The Raiders for years under Al got guys that just wanted a final paycheck into retirement. Raiders just kept sucking anyway. Finally through the draft under this new GM they are building through good drafting of players. It takes time.
Solid run stuffer, something the Niners were devoid of last year giving up 7 x 100 yd rushers in a row (record).
I think the raiders O line was 3 free agent signings last year Nipper.
So the earth is flat? Man some of these guys who happen to have skills in sports should just duct tape their mouths shut. It’s really getting embarrassing. How can some athletes be so foolish?
It’s because they like to see their names in print. Maybe they want to start up the flat-earth society again.
For being people that spent a shitload of time in airplanes, you’d think they would look out the fucking window and notice the curvature of the Earth.
Yeah, and where does all that water go? Got Gravity?
That was good Winder!
Cousins finally got traded…….good riddance. He should fare better with the Pelicans. Sac was losing enough games so why pay this guy big bucks?
It’s President’s Day…….yeah I know who gives a shit! Still I’m curious what’s your favorite President? Mine is Warren G. Harding. He was so bad that for me he’s my favorite. Harding worried about his lousy friends causing him problems. He was the first President elected by women who could finally vote. He was a handsome guy and good with the ladies. He died in office in San Francisco. There were lots of scandals in the Harding Administration. One of biggest scandals was the Tea Pot Dome Scandal. Yeah if your interested look it up.
“you’re” not “your”. Sorry.
Which ‘your?’ Woof!
I heard there was a hooker and some blow in Harding’s room when he died. Maybe that was Brad Nowell?
Apparently this final scene happened at the Palace Hotel in SF.
yeah, an SF hooker and a pile of blow, he probably died from having to much fun.
I was out in the rain around 4PM and I wasn’t singing. My shoes and feet were wet and my lower pants legs were sopping wet……. and still my umbrella performed heroically to save my pathetic head. Only one big tree was down laying on it’s side. . It was like the end of the world. Like the postman, nothing stops me from getting my walking in. Two miles of walking does wonders for me.
The postman had the day off. I try and walk everyday too it is good for you.
Never heard of these guys until yesterday
Until the new coach picks a QB ……….everyone is just whistling in the dark. No matter how fancy the words they don’t mean shit. This new HC better not pick KAP. KAP better get out of town pronto and forever or the faithful will become the faithless. This team does not need a running QB with one eye on his political stands. We need production on offense! We need production in the RED ZONE! Nothing short of that will do. BLEEP IT!

Here’s a version of Married to the Blues that I love Winder –
Shemekia is Johnny Copelands’ Daughter – She was born to sing The Blues 😀
NJ- Thanks for that, very nice.
