Which is why "tire fire" so fittingly describes the state of the 49ers. Statistically, they are near the bottom in both points and yards allowed per game. Peruse the schedule and see if you feel confident about where they might get their second win; it is probably in there somewhere in the remaining 10 games, but there are no sure things. The 49ers have lost five straight games. Singletary was fired with one game remaining and was replaced by Tomsula, sowing the seeds for the 2015 season when the York family — based on one early-January win — became convinced that Tomsula could handle head-coaching duties. [...] 2010 was important mostly because things were so bad that the Yorks became desperate and actually hired a competent, accomplished head coach, who happened to be in their backyard.

Marcus Mosher of The 33rd Team revealed his latest mock draft, which goes seven rounds deep and projects every selection for every NFL team. While most predict that the San Francisco 49ers will add an offensive lineman with their first selection, No. 31 overall, Mosher has the Bay Area team going in a different direction.
The writer and analyst has the Niners selecting former UCLA pass rusher Laiatu Latu in the first round.
"It wouldn't be a shock to see Laiatu Latu fall in the draft due to his medical history, but he is too good of a value to pass up here at No. 31," Mosher wrote. "The San Francisco 49ers have been searching for the right pass

Analyst Steve Palazzolo unveiled a first-round mock draft for Pro Football Focus, attempting to forecast the selections for each NFL team within the top 32 picks. While the San Francisco 49ers concentrated on strengthening the defensive line in free agency, Palazzolo envisions the team continuing to fortify that side of the ball.
