Shanny said this early in the free agency period, so does this tip his hand? Does this mean QWilliams? Sure, it could And it very well might. It could also mean trading out of the 2 and getting picks, and going for a guy like Montez Sweat. Someone a tick below Williams, but likely right up there as a player. Funny thing about the quote is, is, George Seifert said this very same thing in the late 80’s and early 90s when he drafted Ted Washington, Dana Stubblefield and Bryant Young among his 8 picks.
They all worked out pretty well, eh? Sure, we lost Washington before he excelled, but he knew how to get defensive line guys. Seifert’s approach was to have 8 or 9 linemen rotating in and out all game depending on situation to get better pressure and to keep guys fresh throughout the game.
We certainly have a lot of bodies, we picked up a couple guys, and we also have K Street coming off injury. And it looks very damn likely that we are going after QWilliams. This means a plethora of guys to rotate in and out I’d think. And, since we are going defense with such a high pick, the pressure is squarely on another George, Robert Saleh, our embattled defensive coordinator.
He’s the latest in a long line of guys that have tried to turn around a defense that has languished at the bottom of the league since the salad days of Vic Fangio. Call it turnover, age, injuries, or shitty drafting, the 49ers have been a bottom-feeder defensively since then despite all the drafts and moves to change our fortunes. As we all know, time will tell.
I’m nearly certain we take QWilliams now.
I’m not putting a QB on our shopping list this year, for obvious reasons but….I’d like to see if Shanny has any interest in Minshew from WSU.
I think he’s got some moxie and, might be a player in this league.
Here’s an idea from “joecool” from the WZ:
Round 1 (2): Nick Bosa, DE, Ohio State
Round 2 (36): Taylor Rapp, S, Washington
Round 3 (67): Terry McLaurin, WR, Ohio State
Sign me up.
I agree with those 3 positions RT, in no particular order and no specific players.
Tic toc……almost there.
Would prefer either of these guys as FS options – Rd2 or 3? Can’t say….
Darnell Savage – Maryland – 5’11″/198 4.36 39.5″ Vert (182 Tkls/8 Ints) (7.03 3-Cone)
Juan Thornhill – UVA – 6’0″/205 4.42 21 Reps 44″ Vert (208 Tkls/13 Ints)
Thanks once again for your exemplary draft work, NJ. Yeah, sounds about right RTF. These aren’t the Baalke days of throwing darts at draft picks.
You GOT to get out here for a game one of these days, NJ.
Yeah, thanks NJ I wouldn’t have heard of most of those guys.
Happy to share guys. The internet makes it more addicting than ever for me.
One 9er Fans’ obsession as it were 😀
I still think you guys are under valuating the OL. We still have the same guys that let Jimmy get hammered last year and if Big Nick didn’t have such a quick release and short passing game he would have been hammered just like CJ. We need another OT and G.
We’ll likely deal with the line after the draft, when guys start getting waived.
Nice. I bet Skeevies and NoFear just jizzed themselves over this.

The full ESPN story tells a tale of a very painful lingering injury that =took a long time to recover from. Per NJ’s fears.

I’m sure you’re thrilled that Bosa has to delete comments just to kiss the liberal left’s ass. It’s how it works around this lefty barnyard all the time. What’s wrong with standing behind our greatest president of all time and standing up to a cop hater like Kraperrnick? I’m proud of God fearing Americans like No Fear.
Does NF still despise Muhammed Ali for sitting out Vietnam? Or does he respect him as a great champion?
That’s Bosa’s call, skippy. Poor little snowflake doesn’t like it? Waaah! Why don’t I support the president? Because I’m not a communist sympathizer like you. Funny how the right has disavowed the constitution and the rule of law all in the name of helping the rich get richer.
He brings voting against your interests to a new high.
Since we first stated blogging together on the SRPD and SF Gate about 10 or 12 years ago nobody has called out the importance of the D-line as much as me. Shanny has warmed my heart by saying you can never have enough D-linemen.
BTW, I consider an OLB edge rusher as a D-lineman.
I’ve been in that conversation also Berger.
Fat Man in the Middle…
Protect the QB/Sack the QB
All about the trenches for me as well.
😀
And I think we can agree on this guy too?

I’d also go out on a limb and say this…If we don’t get this guy for Welker, Belichick will.

FYI, I have just posted another important link on the Outsider.
Your obituary?
Why keep name dropping the outsider if this place sucks and that place rocks? Chucks place has no readership or participants according to you right?
Usual crock of shit.
Boykin is insane. If he’s around in the 2nd round, he’d be hard to pass up.
