So Much for That – Preseason Ends on a Weird Note

Color me shocked. Stupefied even. The original trade in the would get a lot of GMs fired. Then stringing him along and dumping him for a 4th round pick is a bit more wild. Their saving grace, as it is with most all of their late round picks, is the drafting of Brock Purdy. The guy coming odd a major arm reconstruction.

That the Cowboys picked him up is a huge fuck you to the ghost of Niners past. They are getting an unknown quantity for nothing. One that we bet the farm on. I was convinced they’d simply sit on him until needed, or the season ended. It’s not like we beefed up the line any.

Oh well. I’m sure there are a lot of pissed off fans out there who will instantly vilify Lance, but none of this was his doing. Shanahan is the mastermind of this debacle. He dicked around with Lance even before he was drafted. Hinting he wanted Jones, waffling on Fields, and now dumping him for peanuts. Throw in running him into the line 3 times in the 1st quarter of his 2nd game, and boom. Season-ending injury.

This WILL bite him in the ass at some point.

And even more good news. Continuing Shanny’s folly in the 3rd round, our kicker is out with a pulled quad. Our kicker. Our rookie kicker. This training staff has to be the worst in the league. Can they keep the waterboy healthy?

    They kept QB Allen on the 53, given the QB attrition rate in Shanahan’s scheme I’m not surprised. Allen also played decently in practice and plays similar to Purdy and Darnold which is a plus for a 3rd string guy.

    Glad to see they kept Kalia Davis. We took an injury chance on him last year thinking that he can became a stout run stuffer. I haven’t seen much of him. I hope this means he is what they thought he was.
