No, his twin brother. We draft him!

Kidding thanks for the heads up. Yes Zach!
So we just let verret walk????
I like it. I like it a lot.

Get rid of a lot of dead wood on the roster and get a new QB of the future.

Only quibbles I would have are in the draft and keeping Verrett. Would much rather add an additional EDGE rusher, IOL or DT late than adding another safety. Agree with JoseCortez that Verrett has earned a spot on this roster. He's been stick in coverage and imagine how good he could be with our pass rush restored. Other than that, a strong plan overall.

I have been a fan of your posts for years, but when you said you want hreg knapp back, you lost me.

I hate knapp. He took a good offense with Jeff Garcia and TO in their primes and turned them into a mediocre group. Once they got away from knapp they resumed their pro-bowl status. Under knapp they could barely function.

Then when knapp went to atlanta, he succeeded in doing something most DC's couldn't he made M Vick (in his prime as well) mediocre, the same effect he had on Garcia/TO. Again, once M Vick got away from knapp, he was able to get back on track.

When he was in Oakland, he again proved he is one of the worst OCs in the NFL, ask Raiders fans!

Let me sum it up, greg knapp SUCKS! Period.
Thanks for the mock.

Horn imo is going in the 1st and I think SF will have to move up for Wilson.

I don't think Kris Kocurek wants to be a DC (I believe I read that somewhere). You can put Morris name in pen as the next DC if this happens.

I don't see Ward getting traded either.

Overall good stuff if it went down like that
I like the extra details and overall game plan but there's no way Bill gives up a 2nd for a 5th and damaged goods Jimmy.

Thanks for the thoughtful feedback.

RE: Verrett - We need a youth movement of HEALTHY players in the secondary. 1 year of good Verrett doesn't mean we're comfortable giving him a large extension. I think another team pays him a good wage. I would love to sign him, but we need to be disciplined here.

RE: Knapp - He's not coming in to be an offensive coordinator. He's coming back to SF to exclusively work with the QB unit. He's worked with QBs that Shanahan has coached before (Schaub, Ryan). He's coached HOF players. Shanahan is missing an experienced vet on his offensive staff. Knapp has been a QB coach, OC, TE coach, and passing game coordinator. Shanahan is still the driver.

RE: Garoppolo trade - There's a premium cost to acquire QBs in this league, especially when they have a team friendly contract. I think Bill and Josh McDaniels push to be reunited because he'd be a plug n play guy. And the Pats can do a better job protecting him with scheme and OL improvements.

He prob gonna be too expensive.
There will be a bidding war for Wilson. Would you consider trading for a young QB like Jordan Love?? Trade down in 1st round and still get a QB with a team friendly contract. Drew Lock, Jordan Love, Dwayne Haskins, Sam Darnold to name a few. All have potential
Why do we fire Hightower
