Although he didn't start playing football until the end of high school, Pita Taumoepenu has come a long way in a short time. The 49ers rookie Leo pass rusher joins the show to talk about growing up on the Island of Tonga and his journey to the NFL. He also tells us what he'll bring to the Niners and the impact Elvis Dumervil has had on him so far.

Al and Zain also discuss the recent problems with San Francisco's pass rush and how it can take a big jump forward under Robert Saleh's defense in 2017. Are players from the previous regime, like Tank Carradine, on their way out in favor of John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan selected players?
