Not much going on but rampant speculation. One whack job named Craig Carton has the 49ers trading Brock Purdy to the Cleveland Browns for Myles Garrett. And then of course we finally sign Aaron Rodgers!
Yeah, and monkeys will fly out of my butt.
Yeah, let’s trade the 24 year old phenom for a totally over the hill Rodgers, and resume our search for a QB. Makes perfect sense. Even with Garrett, a game-changing guy, we’d still need to score. Now and in the next few seasons.
There’s even warbling that Maxx Crosby would love to return to the Bay Area after Crosby wrote a long and loving twitter post about being in the Bay Area for the NBA All-Star game and what a great time he had. He’s been waxing about wanting to hit the playoffs and get a shot at a ring, and that doesn’t look very promising for the Raiders for the next few years.
So, yeah, yet another trade idea that would cost us dearly in the draft department. But really, this team blows 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round picks like Monica Lewinsky blows presidents. So, the cost for a bona fide stud like either Garrett or Crosby would be at least worth the chatter.

Contingency plan in place it would seem.

One other thing, Kevin, the game in 2010-2014 was MUCH different than it is now. You don’t have to have 3 guys hit 40-50 home runs, but come on. Bonds was the last guy to hit 30. And that was in 2004! 21 seasons ago! Backup catchers hit more home runs than our ‘power’ guys.
But I’m with Winder. The biggest problem last year was the call-ups absolutely sucking at fundamentals. The highlight being 2 guys in a row getting thrown out at 3rd base. Just flat STUPID baseball by a lot of guys. Throwing to the wrong base, not knowing when to tag up. And the ton of errors.
New thread is up.
