Wallace? Is this some kind of joke?
Here is a question for you. How many NFL games has Wallace started in his career? Clue: the answer is zero.
Question: how many NFL games has Wallace played in? The answer is one.
And this is why he will not be our starting center. The position is too important to take gambles. Wragge. Even Baas.
yes, it was a joke.
but the way you responded, i hope it happens now.

mad dog 20/20 just posted stats showing heitman and rachal were the best two linemen.
The best at what?
Rachal was a turnstile last year. At least Bass wasn't acting like a bull fighter all the time.

I still can't believe that's our starting OL. I'm jacked, man! 
same, this line is young and full of potential. If Rachel improves his play, and Iupati and Davis live up to their potential this could be one of the best lines in the NFL for a long time!
Wasn't Baas a center at Michigan- at least MOST or PART of career? I don't want him starting over Hietman, but could he be our future there? Probably too expensive to resign him as a question mark.

I hate to say this, but I can't help but to think of the Cowboys dominate line of the 90s. We have a lot of beef up front
btw, wouldn't this technically be Chilo's draft class? Was he a sophmore or Jr. when he came out?

* If Iupati or Rachal struggles, Baas will be the first to replace them.
Yeah, Baas is now the backup at OG and C.

So many things wrong with Chilo. First he tries to use only his upper body. Second his footwork is terrible and he always off balanced. Third I dont think he knows the plays because he always looks lost. Last but not least is he must of had his cojones surgically removed. What a big softie. He hates contact. He must be a lover cuz he aint no fighter. In the Pac10 he could bully smaller DL with his strength but that doesnt work in the NFL. Let him sit for a while. Baas sucks but he gives 100% every play.

Dude, Chilo is not soft. He's just a victim of Chris Foerester and his horrible coaching. He came out early and regressed from there. He looked like he was going to be a beast his rookie year.

Bingo!
-Not to mention he was dangled out on a 'franchise tender' at the beginning of the off-season. Our FO was pretty straight-forward on replacing him with either a FA acquisition (like Chester Pitts), or the decisive/likely strategy of picking up Iupati at #17 (which is now set in stone).

If Rachel doesn't improve on his "LOOK OUT" blocks his butt is going to be going to the pine next year if not sooner.

Rachal graded our very well in the final four games last season. Baas also showed some improvement after his foot fully healed but even then, he did not show the agility needed to be a big-time guard in this league. He doesn't seem to have the recognition needed to play center and make blocking calls. I think he winds up settling for backup pay or he leaves. He will have to have a VERY much improved season to stay with the 49ers in 2011.

I've heard a lot of people say Rachal has a higher upside than Baas. I'm not really a fan of either... although, I would like Rachal to get some more PT. Admittedly, he came out of USC too early. He would of liked to play his senior year, but his family situation made it tough. Anyway, he came in pretty raw and I think this year is huge for him.
