Gaines Adams from the Bucs?

Seriously though, I hope Chip doesn't give up anything more than a 7th with his salary. He needs to play OLB and rush the passer. The Dolphins never let him play to his strengths. Still, he's risky with his multiple suspensions. After Miami dumps him, him come running back to Chip to play standing up.

Daily pee tests were not drug test-however if a player has a strike against them, you can do a random drug test. Kellys pee ck was for checking if they were hydrated or not. If he needs to drink more water or maybe even gatorade and don't know if it was mandatory. CBA and union would have a say.

Plus I don't want to waste a pick on a non producer and the money he commands if you trade for him. If he he is cut and comes in on a prove it deal-then maybe.

Chip wont trade for him- hes black!
I would do it for a 7th. He is one issue away from being done. I'd trade a 6th for him and a phins 7th. It help the phins gain cap room. If he is dumb again he loses his salary and we lost a 6th but gained a 7th. Losses would be minimal if he screwed up again.

I'd be willing to go as high as a 4th round pick for him.

5th, 6th and 7th round picks are no brainers.

Give them next year's 7th
No team is paying this guy 6Million next year. The Dolphins will cut him and he will probably sign with the 9ers cheap. He has history with Chip and Azz the DL coach and he scheme fits a needed position. He is also a west coast guy growing up in Chandler Arizona.

Why trade for him?? You take on that contract and he has a $6 million dollar cap hit no way Miami keeps him on the roster for that cash (they are also -2.5 million in the hole in cap space).

He will be cut and I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to play for his old coach.

What's not true about what I posted ... please elaborate further if you will. The links are legit.
It's a FACT, that Chip Kelly tested his players daily. Fact, the interview with Irvin happened ...
So once again, please explain what did not happen ... I'm listening ???

I was a walk on during coach Kelly's final year at Oregon.
Also I don't see any links in your post.

Quest, I APOLOGISE for the confusion and not providing linkage. I should have waited until the following day
to respond ... actually in hindsight, I should have waited to make any entries (period) until the next day TBH.

When I saw your reply to my entry "This isn't true at all, your "articles/reports" are wrong", my reaction, what
did I MESS-UP now. I thought that I had my info/links correct ... had I waited, I wouldn't have to explain this now.
Sometimes I get too involved in reading threads in the Zone - in between work and life - and I tend to lose track of
the time. Being +10 hours ahead of the S.F. Bay Area time Zone ... it's a little difficult (at times), to interact when a
majority of other Zoners are online ... but that also when it best IMO.

Parts of my post in this thread, are mixed up with parts of the "FA we should target in 2016" thread. Initially when I
read your reply, I rechecked my post just see where I went wrong ... trying to figure out what you were making reference
to. It wasn't until late today, that I actually had time to sort it all out.

I never intended to provide a link in this thread. Those links, were provided in the FA Thread about Bruce Irvin (#'s 246 & 249),
hence the markups in your reply to me:

  • The links are legit.
  • It's a FACT, that Chip Kelly tested his players daily
  • Fact, the interview with Irvin happened

The only part that actually applies to this thread, is the statement made with reference to Coach Kelly, taking urine samples on-the-daily.
Prior to Chip being named our new coach, I didn't know much about him ... beyond: he coached in the Pac-12, had success at Oregon,
including his 1st 2 seasons in Philadelphia, didn't fair well in the player personnel aspect with the Eagles, and hailed from New Hampshire.

In between trying to work - and catchup on the new coach - I spent time reading some of the current and older articles circulating the
Internet about him. That is how I came about the information which stated he Piss-Test his players. I can't say for sure, if one article in
particular was written tongue-in-cheek or not ... but it gave me the feeling, that I could be wrong about him ... and maybe, he could be a
good fit for the Niners.

Unfortunately for me, the Browsers I use, are set to self clean - history, cookies, etc - when I close them. I'm not the type to make up
random sh!t, just to get reactions or whatever from other Fans ... nor was I trying to SLANDER Dion Jordan. My comment was strictly
based out of curiosity, as to how he was able to pass the Urinalysis while a Duck ... given the information I'd read about Coach while at
Oregon and Philly.

So now begins the task, of trying to remember from which website I read - what I posted - so I can enter that link into this conversation.
When I find it, I'll post that info here - as well as - in a PM to you. Having played for Chip, how do you view this hiring ... did you feel he's
flexible enough to alter his methods, and see the bigger picture ... or do you think he'll eventually revert to his comfort zone ???


Its all good, we are all friends here. Didn't mean to come across as harsh as my original post sounded.
I am actually a huge fan of this hire. I think it is exactly what our teem needs at this moment, his attitude and expectation for absolute commitment should start to turn our program around.
He doesn't take any BS, and that is where I think he gets his reputation of being a jerk. Athletes, especially if you are good enough to get a scholarship to Oregon, have been treated a certain way most of their lives. After awhile that kind of treatment begins to change your outlook on life, and how you view yourself. Chip was a good anchor for those players in keeping their head out of the sky and focused on helping the man next to you. Honestly I hope he reverts to his comfort zone because that is where he is best. In his time at Oregon he manages to construct a culture, rather than a football team. In my opinion, that is the biggest difference between a good team and a great team. We didn't show up to practice with the expectation that we needed to be better than our teammates in order to succeed, we showed up to practice because we wanted to accomplish something that we all strove for (NCAA championship, thank you Cam Newton).

Also, regarding the pee tests. He didn't test every single player every day. Granted he did issue tests daily, but they usually were only to about 10-15 random people.
@Quest, thanx for the reply and your understanding. With all the Hoopla surrounding the Kelly hiring by the 49ers, the Internet is now over
abundant with (even) more articles about Chip. I still haven't found the exact article I referenced (which is kinda' pissing-me-off ;D). As is
the nature of Sport Reporting, I've found many of the same quotes, only utilised from a different angle. This article, was more of the feature
or in-depth type, and not a Game-Day or day-by-day Beat Writer piece.

If you don't mind sharing your insight further, I'd like to know:
  • what side of the ball you played on while at Oregon
  • will you be active in the Game-Day thread - hopefully so, 'cause you'll kinda' be our Insider
  • do you know if there are other ex-Duck player on the WZ as well ???

People - in general - love to HATE on things they don't understand for several reasons ... which I won't get into in this thread. That stated,
I heard it mentioned on 95.7 The Game (today), that Chips players, (in Philly), were the least injured in the NFL. People can laugh if they
want about his methods, however there has to be something to his Sport Science methods.

As a player under his guidance, how was you level of conditioning? Does the above (mentioned) ring true with regard to team injuries etc.
while you were at Oregon? As you are aware, our team during these past 2 seasons, has had more than its share of them ???
