Mike McGlinchey-OT-Denver Broncos

give this dude some cheeseburgers

Never thought I'd see the day an NFL starting tackle would get pancaked by a DB twice in one season...

Hall of Shame

WAIT! Before you scream BLASPHEMY, I'm not done yet.

I also see a future where the 49ers trade out of the 12th spot in the draft and pick up one or two additional high picks in this year's draft, and maybe a pick for next year. It could be a package of another team's first AND two second round picks.

I see the 49ers using those three high picks on tackle, tackle and CB in that order. Best tackle gets the right tackle spot vacated by McGlinchey. The second either gets converted to guard, OR in case Mc struggles, left tackle. Mc is then converted to guard or center.

Your future sounds like a nightmare

Yeah I will scream. MM is horrible in pass pro and you want him at LT I'm glad our coaches don't agree and even MM said he needs to work on his pass protection

Someone get this dude a ham sandwich or two.

There are a lot of proposed scenarios floating around right now. I think I'd have to say letting Trent Williams walk and even considering MM play LT when pass pro was his weakness even coming out of college is by far and away the worse.

Yep.

Couldn't agree more. The biggest argument Jimmy's supporters make is that he needs better protection. Letting Trent walk would be a huge step in the wrong direction, whether or not they trade or release Jimmy.

Yup. Having quality pass protection in a passing league is kind of an important thing...no matter you're QB.

This may be a bit simplistic, but how in the world did McG go from being a fantastic draft pick who had a good first yr, to now? What exactly happened. It seemed he just kind of drifted downhill, but was there an injury i missed? If not, what?

Hard to tell why that happens. It can be something in his personal life that's taking his mind off football. Or he could just be having an off season. Players are rarely the same every year. As far as I know he wasn't battling an injury.

Agree, but better scenario would've been to draft Wirfs last year. TB clearly saw the kids talent last year and traded up for him, unlike myopic Kyle's philosophy of missing out on generational talent right in front of his face because he's obsessed with an old player of his. Wirfs seems like a perennial pro bowler at a rookie salary. Would've put us in better position.
TW's elite, but even his presence didn't elevate the OL from being bad. His new contract will force niners to sacrifice some good players, which we probably could've kept in Wirfs scenario. Also TWs injury history is a concern. Don't need another Dee/Richburg scenario.
Kinlaw might turn out to be good down the line, but they didn't need him. Plenty of quality DTs on this team already. Kyle being stubborn and not learning from passing on Mahomes/Watson.

Idk if its that easy.

I just don't think he's that fully committed to football. Looking back at it now, we all thought it was so cool that he's always hanging out with Staley and going out partying. But that was just not good thing. You really don't want to see that from your rookie. Joe was basically retiring, he's gonna have some fun. But we didn't see Bosa constantly hanging out with so and so and partying and what not.

He can play T, he's got the talent, but he needs the work ethic.

You know Kyle isn't the one drafting lol, especially not on defense. And woulda shoulda coulda isn't the answer. TW has to be back.

Tristan Wirfs a generational talent? Good lord.

He came out of the draft profiling as a very good run blocker with questions about his pass protection. Three seasons later he is a very good run blocker with questions about his pass protection. He is too one-dimensional and I can't see him getting the 5th year option.
