I'll put it on your bill.

QB (3): Brian Hoyer, Matt Barkley, C.J. Beathard
RB (3): Carlos Hyde, Joe Williams, Kapri Bibbs
FB (1): Kyle Juszczyk
WR (6): Pierre Garçon, Marquise Goodwin, Jeremy Kerley, Aldrick Robinson, Eric Rogers, Trent Taylor,
TE (4): Vance McDonald, George Kittle, Logan Paulsen, Garrett Celek
OL (8): Joe Staley, Trenton Brown, Zane Beadles, Joshua Garnett, Garry Gilliam, Jeremy Zuttah, Daniel Kilgore, John Theus

Defense (25)
DL (8): Arik Armstead, DeForest Buckner, Solomon Thomas, Aaron Lynch, Ronald Blair, D.J. Jones, Earl Mitchell, Pita Taumoepenu,
LB (7): Ray-Ray Armstrong, Navorro Bowman, Ahmad Brooks,Reuben Foster, Eli Harold, Malcolm Smith, Dekoda Watson
DB (10): Rashard Robinson, Ahkello Witherspoon, Keith Reaser, Will Redmond, K'Waun Williams, Dontae Johnson, Jimmie Ward, Eric Reid, Jaquiski Tartt, Adrian Colbert

ST (3):
K: Robbie Gould
P: Bradley Pinion
LS: Kyle Nelson


There's a few things that I don't like/not sure of:

Bibbs at RB3 - I chose him because I don't really like the other options, except Breida - but hard to pick a UDFA.

Eric Rogers - need some size, and he's like all we have.

Magnuson - I think we just singed like two FAs, so the chance of him making it is slim.

Celek - I'd rather see Hikutini make it, if only because I'm tired of seeing Baalke TEs.

DL - Dial probably makes the team, but at the expense of who?

I would swap Pita with Tank. He's fine on the PS IMO. This is the first time we get to see Tank play his natural position at his normal size. I wouldn't drop him just yet.

But but but all the draft picks have to make the 53.

Is it weird that Kyle Juszcyk is still my favorite addition of the off season? Just can't wait to see how he's used to disguise personnel groupings.

I want to see the vets on short contracts perform. Tank was forced into a role he wasn't built for. I think he has a great chance to shine now.

If there was a scheme and a role for him to actually shine in, this is it. Hope you're right. Can you imagine if Tank actually came out of nowhere and played like a 2nd round Edge selection? Wow.

On defense, in obvious passing downs, I expect a mixture of thomas, AA, Blair, Jones and buckner to move around both DT spots and the right end since they all can play all of those positions. I also expect a mixture of the LEOs playing at both RE and LE in obvious passing downs.

I want to add a RB and either a WR or LB for special teams and depth.

No doubt, there will be an array of combinations...from base to nickel...really excited to see who wins out on prominent roles.

Any particular type of RB, WR & LB you like?

Not at all...it'll just look weird to see a lead blocker too. LOL

I get that it's popular to have guys like Tank, Celek, Vance, and Dial as cuts, but I don't see them all, especially when they have most if not all of their base salary guaranteed for 2017, why keep them past April 1 when Tank, Celek, and Dial had money gtd on that day, makes no sense, I'd rather had released them if they're not making the team.

This is what I came up with, early for now.

53-Man Roster:

1. QB Brian Hoyer (Base salary is fully gtd)
2. QB Matt Barkley
3. QB C.J. Beathard
4. RB Carlos Hyde (I can't see the cutting Hyde, he gets this year to prove himself)
5. RB Tim Hightower (Only $300K gtd, but I think Shanahan likes him)
6. RB Joe Williams
7. RB Kapri Bibbs (We traded a 4th in 2018 to get him, I don't see him cut unless he sucks it up, then it made no sense to trade a 2018 4th, even if we got a 2017 5th)
8. FB Kyle Juszczyk
9. WR Pierre Garcon
10. WR Marquise Goodwin
11. WR Jeremy Kerley
12. WR Aldrick Robinson
13. WR Trent Taylor
14. WR KD Cannon ($45K GTD in his UDFA deal, plus he has potential)
15. TE Logan Paulsen
16. TE George Kittle
17. TE Garrett Celek or Vance McDonald or Cole Hikutini (I do think 1 of the first 2 gets traded, not cut, they'd eat money, Hikutini also got $20K GTD in his UDFA deal)
18. C Jeremy Zuttah
19. C Tim Barnes
20. LG Zane Beadles
21. LG Brandon Fusco
22. RG Joshua Garnett
23. RG Daniel Kilgore
24. LT Joe Staley
25. RT Trent Brown
26. RT Garry Gilliam
27. DE Solomon Thomas
28. DE Ronald Blair
29. LEO Arik Armstead
30. LEO Aaron Lynch or Tank Carradine (I can't decide which I would keep, I'd love both)
31. DT DeForest Buckner
32. DT Quinton Dial
33. NT Earl Mitchell
34. NT D.J. Jones
35. OLB Malcolm Smith
36. OLB Reuben Foster
37. OLB Ray-Ray Armstrong
38. OLB Dekoda Watson
39. MLB NaVorro Bowman
40. MLB Brock Coyle ($400K Bonus, he makes it for STs)
41. CB Rashard Robinson
42. CB Ahkello Witherspoon
43. CB Dontae Johnson
44. CB K'Wuan Williams
45. CB Will Redmond
46. FS Jimmie Ward
47. FS Don Jones ($500K GTD in his base plus 2yr deal, doubt he's cut)
48. SS Eric Reid
49. SS Jaquicki Tartt
50. SS Lorenzo Jerome
51. PK Robbie Gould
52. P Bradley Pinion
53. LS Kyle Nelson

To me, this team is much better than 2016.

When will we see people get released? Will they wait for it's?

Our team already is leaps and bounds better than 2016.

Supposedly rookies report Thursday, and Minicamp is Fri-Sun this weekend, so we should know in the next 48-72 hours who's been officially signed, and released/cut/waived/traded/etc..

Kittle could be on the team as a FB/TE... not sure if that makes it easier to take four tight ends total if we don't get enough value for Celek or Vance.
