Can one of you 9er faithful tell me why Snyder is not very good? I don't watch a ton of their games besides our two meetings a year.

i don't want it to sound like sour grapes. i'm not saying he's complete garbage because the truth of the matter is he really stabilized our line after chilo was so horrible.

his problems are he doesn't pull well, he constantly needs help because he's not very strong and he just gets confused with stunts. we have other issues on the line so it's not all him and i don't think he is as bad as pro football focus says (he is rated like the 3rd worst guard in the league last year) but we just needed to move on (i don't think the niners even offered him a contract)
 
I like the McClain signing. Team saying that he'll be our fullback. We haven't had a "true" fullback here since Lorenzo Neal (Tolbert and Hester are both HB's and both most likely gone).

Also hearing that Eddie Royal is coming for a visit. Keep it coming AJ, you still have a lot of work to do.

Who is gonna run behind McClain? I don't personally think Matthews is your guy

well we need to bring in a vet RG. we all saw what happened with anthony davis: when chilo, who is a fucking loser and has no fucking clue what he's doing, was in there then davis couldn't trust him and his fundamentals broke down. then adam snyder comes in, who is a veteran and is much better than chilo, and suddenly davis is no longer a liability and actually had a pretty good season.

i'm very happy with FA so far though. we got all of our defense resigned at fair deals and we picked up some depth and dirt cheap prices. for the rest of FA i think we need to find a guard and maybe a couple more WR's. on the WR front, i just want to sign enough WR's to guarantee that kyle williams gets cut and is blackballed out of the league so he can go play for the whitesox.

the best part about us handling our business in FA is that we can truly draft BPA in the draft. when was the last time we could say that as niners fans? there was always some huge hole and now we're pretty solid across the board

p.s. lulz almost completely forgot about alex smith. yeah we need to sign him too. something doesn't sit right with me about him not signing yet. i wonder what's going on...

Despite the epic choke job, I still like Kyle Williams. I just don't want him to ever handle KR PR duties.
 
Titans doctors just entered the facility on NFLN.

Oh yeah...

The team is really high on Mathews and they want him to be the guy. I think he still has a lot to learn...especially how to hold on to the ball. I know that they want Tolbert to stay, so they might try to lock him up still. If not, I'm guessing they'll look for another Tolbert-type back to be the bruiser.
 
You guys think he really wants to play his old team twice a year? I have no idea, just don't see why he would submit himself to that circus.

It's not over yet, but signs aren't looking good for us. I'm fine with Tebow, the question is whether or not Elway is.

Elway's already showed his hand. He's definitely not fine with Tebow. I'm not sure how I feel about this. But I'm expecting at least one QB drafted and another year of not knowing who are starter is going to be until week 1.

The only thing that makes me think otherwise is that they put out that if Manning doesn't come to Denver, Tebow is still the starter going into camp. It's not exactly a vote of confidence but at the very least he gets a shot to earn the starting position going into the regular season. I'm pretty sure we still draft a QB, and maybe sign a QB, but I don't think he gets shipped out unless Manning comes to town.

I'm actually somewhat excited for this, because I'm interested if Tebow can take his legendary work ethic and apply it to make huge gains at the position, or if he will simply be beat out by a rookie QB. Should make for an interesting preseason. At least we don't have to settle for Orton.
 
Von Miller ‏ @MillerLite40
Mario and Manning = I will play this season for free, super bowls are priceless!!!

At least Miller is keeping the faith. I love this guy.
 
Curious as to what Tulloch, Lofton, and the lions are up to.

mlive said:
Seattle Seahawks linebacker David Hawthorne is going to visit the New Orleans Saints on Friday, according to sources. Hawthorne, who also has an interest from the Detroit Lions, is one of the NFL's premier free agent linebackers. If he signs with New Orleans, it leaves one less possible landing spot for Tulloch.

Earlier today, Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager Mark Dominik reportedly said his team would focus on the NFL Draft and probably not pursue Tulloch. Former Carolina linebacker Dan Connor is slated to visit Dallas this week, while Tulloch currently does not have any visits scheduled.

Detroit must hope the market for middle linebacker continues to diminish in order to receive a deal on Tulloch's skills.

Falcons linebacker Curtis Lofton was previously rumored to sign with Tampa Bay, but that no longer seems like a possibility. If Hawthorne signs later this week, the race to take the best contract offer remaining could heat up for Tulloch.

So with Robinson officially gone we now have zero WR depth. No Robinson, no Ogletree, no Holley. Miles Austin is perpetually injured and Dez Bryant is literally retarded. I knew this would happen when Jerry started hyping up some guy on our practice squad.

Edit: all will be forgiven Jerry if you get say Manning
