If your boss tells you cut XYZ what do you do? say no?

This too. Jed has cut the cord man

Offseasons before the year a SB is being played at Levi's have not been fan friendly. It's a pattern!

They don't think brock is that guy man.

If they don't, I understand. If they give him a bigger contract, it would be confusing

No, they're giving him the contract and to get the most out of that contract they're building a team around Brock that suits his skillset.

We're changing the O, we're rebuilding the D.

Draft will be D heavy starting with a DT/DE.

Seems fun. Excited to see what his skillset is because all eyes will be on him.

Cohn and Kawakami are sharpening their pencils as we speak just wait.

I really wish we had some good news. At least sign Brock. If we trade him in the next few days this site is going to be rough to visit.

Hard not to over react but man this roster just doesn't look like it will be competitive

as opposed to last years 6-11 team?

Still got a solid offense if CMC, Aiyuk, Kittle, Brock are healthy. Granted Aiyuk will probably not see the field until I'm guessing week 6. We hit on some defensive guys in the draft and we might have a shot.

agree.

It's time for them to dust off those 80s VHS tapes and tell us about the tradition and expectations here.

How does Lynch manage to have a worst offseason than the one before? The bar is set super low and he still manages to sink below it. The last decent offseason they had was 2020 I believe and every year after that it's gotten worse and worse. Whether it's SB controversy, holdouts, or with whatever seems to be going on this offseason.

Idk how to put Instagram post up but the niners thought the deal was complete with Bosa and the bills swooped in the last minute and gave him supposedly significantly more. Bosa couldn't refuse.

No they didn't. If Floyd's release was contingent on Bosa signing with them they wouldn't have done so. They had plenty of cap space to sign Bosa and THEN release Floyd.

The account who started that story throws crap at the wall to see if it sticks all the time.

My hope is that we have a 2010 Seahawk-esque draft to hasten the reload but I really think this is gonna take awhile

A losing more and more faith for this year. Don't give me this crap about 27 and 28. At this point we will field with a 55mil quarterback who won't elevate the players around him. CMC injuries concerned. Aiyuk injury concerned. Trent always has his foot in the retirement doorway. List goes many players? We're going to be a team patched together with one to two year deals and UDFA. You can't expect them to hit on this many draft picks either. Just very poor planning at this point. I also didn't see Purdy being this way either.

They've already explained themselves. Why do they need to do it again?

They said they need to reset a bit on the spending and get younger. Clearly putting a lot of weight into the draft which hasn't happened yet.

What's your solution?

This market is generally soft compared to east coast markets like philly and ny. It's just the culture. I mean fans think grant is annoying and tough lol. He would be a regular dude in the east coast. 49ers do control lots of the media guys too so that's why no one wants to put their feet on the fire. John already said this will be a rebuild without blantly saying it. Gotta read between the lines

Talk about a buzzkill start to 2025 Free Agency for the Niners. This is brutal.
