It seems like in Niner fan world players are either studs or garbage. There are a lot of players that are in between that can stll help a team. Even the best players don't flash every down. Sometimes they're virtually shut out for an entire game.

There are also fans who love to trigger. You, me or anyone else. The trick is not falling for it. It's BS. You know it's BS. Smells like BS. But, whatevs.

Has been playing superb! doing his assignment and has been flashing big time. That play where he was in the backfield and almost took the handoff from Daniels was crazy. His PS Days are over for sure.

Great point, I honestly didn't even think about that. Feels like it's been 2-3 years since we've had all our starters on DL. I can see Valdez playing well this season and they put Collins ahead of him next year on the depth chart

Is Collins out all season? I cant remember.
But if Valdez produces all season with no injuries there's I think there's no way they can put Collins ahead of him or Gracen. Collins becomes trade bait or a backup.

Valdez is a better player than West. That would be complete stupid.

Fine but West can still be a good rotational piece. D linemen need a lot of rest.

Not saying cut West. I am saying the best player get the majority of playing time which is Valdez.

The coaches will determine that. Valdez will probably get most of the snaps but you can't have too many D linemen.

lol both West and Collins were getting crazy hype last year. 2 games in and it sounds like a lot of you are ready to throw them to the side for an udfa
