Nobody is commenting on their ability. They are commenting on the fact that once they come back they will either have to be cut, or someone else will have to be cut so that they can be put on the 53. That's it.

It doesn't matter what Tank does in practice or how ready he is, unless the 9ers are gonna cut him (which they're absolutely not gonna do) a space has to be cleared for him. Same goes for Dial.
No the other option is 1 of these guys or both end up on IR... those are the 3 choices the Niners get to make for people coming of PUP list IR, added to the 53 man roster or be cut. If Fangio has any sayin this I can see atleast one of them hitting IR cause he doesn't really think they'll be able to contribute much this year.

Yep I can see one of them on IR to hold on to and get ready for next year.

We ain't cutting either of them. If they aren't ready this year we throw both on IR.

Ding ding ding, finally. LOL
Wright for Nnamdi (cut) or Darryl Morris (PS)

Manningham for Moore (cut) or Patton (IR)

Carradine and/or Dial for some combo of Bethel-Thompson/ Chris Harper /Dobbs/Jerod-Eddie

Harper isn't going to get cut unless he is just blowing chunks in practice. They were very clear that he is a long term project to become Walker 2.0.

If I didn't already do it here are the most realistic players to be cut or traded to make room

QB: Bethel-Thompson
RB: LMJ
LB: Cunningham
CB: Nnamdi, Morris

If not any of those players we get into the ST specialists

WR: Osgood, Moore, Williams,
S: Ventrone
LB: Stupar

TJE and Dobbs won't be cut because McDonald's and Dorsey's injuries.
Whoever is most injured will go on the injury list...all these guys are nicked.

I think you're right on Dobbs and/or TJE, If Tank and Dial can help, they may have to let one go. Stupar wont go anywhere, we need a 4th ILB until Moody is back.

Ventrone has his deal guaranteed. The 3 WRs are possible, none are guaranteed, Osgood I hope stays, but I feel they will keep crap Williams instead.

Moore goes for Mario. I can see Nnamdi going for wright, if they feel Morris is better than Nnamdi. Cunningham should be kept until Moody is back, we shouldn't go thin at LB. I cant see Willis, Bow, Wilhoite, Brooks, Skuta and Lemonier at LB, we need at least Stupar also, and sense we are a 3-4 team, we usually carry more LBs.I dont envy the FO for this. Tough decisions to come.

Totally agree on all accounts. And yes, ideally, if Williams isn't going to be even USED in the slot, I'd rather keep Osgood over him and find someone else to fair catch.

My vote is

qb Colt Mccoy gets cut favoring John Skelton. Skelton is back up. No 3rd qb.

Dobbs is cut, he is the weak link on the OL

Nhamdi is cut, Brock is the #3, Wright #4. Cox #5

Celek is a JAG, just another guy. The team goes to jumbo package when they need a blocker. Celek is out.

Dobbs is a DT who occasionally plays TE. How is he a weak link on the OL? Not to mention, Skelton isn't even on the team anymore.

From the way Ray McDonald played on Sunday, I would not be surprised to see him go on IR and have the surgery necessary to correct his biceps injury. He clearly did not have his usual impact against Arizona.

If Dial and Carradine are as represented, they should both find a spot on the active list, along with Dobbs and Jerrod-Eddie. As thin as we are now, both of the latter two could be useful in the future.

Dorsey's hamstring appeared to be a fairly serious problem if he could not even walk out of the locker room without a limp. For a big heavy guy like him, who MUST have a strong push to play NT, a hamstring problem would render him of no value until fully healed. So while I don't expect him to go on IR, an active replacement for him for the next 2-4 weeks is a likely necessity.

All that means that we need two immediate additions to the DL without cutting ANY of the current group.

Yea I just want them to properly use KW or just send him packing and have Cox stand back their and FC it all day.

Yea agreed, it all connecting the dots.

LB: Cunningham will stay on this roster Moody returns

CB: Nnamdi goes when Wright returns because Morris is contributing on ST / Wildcard is Coxgetting cut but I don't see it happening because he plays double digit defensive snaps as well as ST coverage and backup returner

WR1: Based off of snaps and versatility it has to be Moore on the outs when Manningham returns. That is if it is a like-for-like swap

WR2: Crabtree will be activated when ready or not until the week 11 deadline and just consume a roster spot until he is ready to play so this is where I could see us caving and trading LMJ rather than cutting an ST player. If it is a like-for-like than Kyle Williams could be cut/traded.

If Fangio is to be believed than I don't think we cut TJE or Dobbs for either Tank or Dial but rather we cut/trade a fringe offensive player or an ST player. But if Ray Mac and Dorsey return to full form than I think that Dobbs and TJE have to go.

Wildcard is if Patton goes on IR for his broken foot. Last thing we need as another Crabtree situation with an injury constantly hampering a player's development. And McDonald's injury could worsen, so that could be two players going on IR that would free up spots without needing to cut anybody.

I always thought Cox would make a good returner.

I also can see McDonald and/or Patton go on IR, depends on how well Mario and Crabs come back, and if Patton's injury is to severe
Some of the potential cuts in this thread are ridiculous TJE, LMJ and Dobbs are not going anywhere and neither is KW which is gonna break the hearts of the jaded many.

WR wise, Its gonna be Moore or Osgood, possibly both.

CB wise, Its hard to see them cutting Nnamdi since Fangio gave him the 3rd CB spot to start the season but it wouldnt be too big of a surprise, they will most likely waive Morris hoping to stash him on the PS.

Cunningham is a definite possibility as we have been known to carry 3 OLBs in the past and Aldon may come back at some point.

Its also possible that Stupar or Ventrone could be cut if they decide to keep both Osgood and Moore, but probably wont happen that way.

This is allot more realistic than a few of the posts that are in this thread.

this is Niner Talk. where everything is possible.
Deft LOCKS Marlon Moore & Nnamdi Asomugha, maybe quite possible Osgood since pretty much the whole special team unit is thriving this year he might be expendable
