Kyle Shanahan seemed to trust solid veteran OT's going from Joe Staley to Trent Williams. I doubt they rely on Jaylon Moore if Trent Williams were to retire next season.
Same can be said for DE, we don't need Garrett to go on a Super Bowl run. the 49ers got to two Super Bowls without two elite DE's. Can't say they got to two Super Bowls without a solid LT.
They started McG from day 1. They literally cut Colton and now he's going to be the starting RT for the 3rd yr. Kyle was given Joe and he got a godfather deal to trade for Trent. Also why we acting like Trent is dead? Last I checked he isn't retire and just got paid to play. Ankle issues, off field issues and how the season went…there was no reason to put him out there.
not the same can't be said at DE. This isn't some exotic scheme on defense. They rush 4 and never blitz. We saw what happened when that doesn't work. People seem to forgot that we had Ford/bosa/AA/buck in 2019. Last yr they still had two very good pass rushing DTs and Bosa.
there's a reason they draft and pay DL. There's a reason they don't spend up for OL. One side is so heavily scheme based with good play makers on offense. The other is legit we just have better players up front than you do.
again THIS draft is not good at the top. Just isn't. It's not chock full of blue chip talent. I'll bet SF (and others) don't have 11 1st rd grades on this class.
I'm saying when Trent retires trade for a LT if anything.
And they did go to the Super Bowl with Dee Ford and Bosa but what did the 49ers give up to get Dee Ford, he was hardly elite. The 49ers could sign Josh Sweat to compliment Bosa and they would be good on the D-line. They don't need to spend the farm for Myles Garrett to get that same production or to get to the Super Bowl. Yes, the 49ers have had good pass rushing DT's and that's exactly what they need, like I said they could trade up for Mason Graham too, which shouldn't be as expensive as Abdul Carter. And the 49ers would be getting them on rookie deals.
Tell me, have the 49ers ever gave up the farm to get to the Super Bowl? There's so many ways the 49ers can go without giving up the farm for Myles Garrett.
