Not at all, the time for patience is the first two steps, not the first 8 he's used to, certainly would have been an adjustment.

So now we have Coleman, what happens next.....

nothing will happen.

Let's see whos healthy at the end of preseason. McKinnon literally got hurt on the last practice before week 1. And Breida is injury prone. We were getting RBs off the streets last year.

Coleman has a proven record of healthiness and success.

Why are people complaining about this signing. Tevin Coleman is a beast in Shanny's system. Besides.. doesn't anyone remember last year when we almost had to call Garrison Hearst out of retirement bc all our RB's were getting injured?

I agree. The Niners wont be releasing any of the 3 unless McKinnon simply cant come back from his injury. This signing makes SO much sense.

Damn no love for breida

Yeah he's not a one cut and go guy. He would have earned his money in the passing game here

I am not saying I don't agree with you in this little mini debate about McKinnon, John.

But I am getting awfully tired of people using New England as an example when trying to prove their point. New England is the outlier, not the norm.
Sorry you are so tired of it. But its a good example because its true.

Yeah but how many other teams do what they do? That's my point. People talk about the way they manage their cap and things too as if duplicating what they do is so easy.

If Mckinnon can come back healthy, we have a nice stable of backs. Not sure of the complaints either.

Haha. The 49ers have signed my two favorite RBs from other teams. Lol. I think Coleman can be elite!! Love the signing. If McKinnon is waved by June first the 49ers save over 3million$. My guess is McKinnon gets waved.
