I'm pumped he picked 84 -- He'll look just like Brent making TD catches in the future. Pulling so greatly for this kid and hoping for quick development and contribution. Carrier is a very good receiving TE, but he is really better suited to playing the TE2 position as a complementary threat like Delanie was -- he's simply not in the same mold of Bell where he could inline block in heavier packages.

Old numbers of Ahmed Plummer, Keena Turner, Brent Jones, Garrison Hearst, Michael Crabtree, Jeff Garcia, Jeremy Newberry, Kwame Harris, and Will Tukuafu

August seems so far away... the lack of football-related activity is excruciatingly agonizing.

Herst was good, but he was the jinxed on why we never could beat Green Bay and get to the Super Bowl.. .He was also the reason why we turned down the Marshall Faulk Indy Colts offer..

Still can't believe we did not give up Hearst, 2nd and 5th for Marshall..

I never heard of a Marshall Faulk offer until today. You stay making stuff up dude.


Ya...I've NEVER heard of any offer in regards to Hearst and Faulk.

Even if this were true...

It would have been after the 1998 season. In 1998, Marshall Faulk ran for 1319 yards and 4.1 yards per carry. Garrison Hearst ran for 1570 yards and 5.1 per carry.

Why on earth would the 49ers give up Hearst AND picks for Faulk knowing only what we knew then? Nobody knew Garrison was going to break his ankle and miss 2 full seasons.

Come on now.

This

feel the same.

However Baseball seems so much better this year.

not sure if subtle change to the game pace or that they are coming off the WS.

NBA and NHL playoffs are mildly entertaining as well.

He actually has a similar running style. One can hope

That's it!!! For a few days I kept beating myself up for not being able to figure it out. I was saying he looks like someone but I can't remember. I guess I was blocking out Niner backs to compare. But yes, his running style is very very close to Hearst's.

Thanks!

Phillip Wheeler is #44 according to 49ers.com's roster page.

Only ones without numbers are Dorsey and Armstead, I would think 91 for one of them, and then IDK for the other, as no other 90s are left, unless JSmkth retires, and I don't see them giving out BYs old number. I would take a stab and say once final cuts are made one or both of those 2 will change numbers.

I think Armstead will take 91 and Dorsey a number in the 70s...probably 72, the number he wore at LSU and in KC.

I think it's time to allow Dorsey to meet his full potential and move him at the DT positin.. Dial and Ian Williams should compete for the NT position while Dorsey man the position that both McDonald and Justin Smith had..

I'm surprised Dorsey doesn't rock his old #72?

The 49ers stopped using #72 after Thomas Herrion died.

The 49ers are running out of numbers to issue. Do we stop using 21 and 52 now as well? I don't like it. Numbers should enter semi-retirement in my opinion. Ten years to honour the retired stars and split the eras - then bring the numbers back into circulation.
May 13, 2015 at 4:01 PM
I think some numbers should never be worn again.

8- Steve Young
16- Joe Montana
42- Ronnie Lott
80- Jerry Rice
97- Bryant Young

Also 21- Frank Gore, and 52- Patrick Willis.

The rest I'm ok with being used. I may have missed a few I'm not an oldster like some here, I don't know the entire list of retired/semi-retired numbers.

Guys, were running out of numbers!! Stop giving them away to the rookies!
