Nick Bosa...

I mean the interior. Buck eats up the guard and center most plays. Teams shifted to start double teaming Bosa after the Carolina game. Buck allowed the linebackers to flow and make plays. I just don't see that player on our roster anymore. Run d gonna be super soft.

What did Buck do when teams started DT Bosa? Nothing.

DJ Jones will play a big part next year too, assuming he stays healthy of course.

I like Jones. Showing good promise. B/c of Buck he sees 2 on 2 blocking. He's never faced constant double teams. Hope he can make the impact we need.

Keeping both Buckner and Armstead long term was never going to happen. It is impossible under the cap unless you want to lose Kittle and/or others. Thats not debatable. So you have to capitalize on your assets. If they played it out long term and let one walk, the best the 49ers would get would be a compensatory pick. They don't give 1st round comps. Trading one of the two now and getting a 1st rounder in the top 15 is better than any other scenario possible.

If whoever they draft at #13 busts, it means the pick was wrong. It doesn't make it a bad trade. Those are two separate things. This trade is already a win in regards to the value acquired.

Good post

Armstead had a good season in 2018, he took another step forward last season. People are so stuck on their original view of him that its gone well beyond irrational at this point. He's a very good DL in his own right.


Spin it, DJ, spin it

There was a way to afford and keep the guy.. we just didn't bother because Brainiac Lynch and Choke Artist Kyle didn't see him more than a solid DT who plays 1 great quarter, then an average at some..

THAT'S THE TRUTH !!!

Brainiac Lynch and Choke Artist Kyle must have already fallen in-love with someone right now..

Shanny / Lynch doing their best to surpass Harbaugh / Baalke regime

Figure at least 3 QBs, Chase Young, and that monster offensive lineman go before our pick. That makes us 8th on everybody else. We can get somebody really, really good at WR or CB, or trade our #13 down but stay in the 1st round, then pick up a WR and have a 2nd and 3rd or something similar to use as well. And still have our virgin #31.

Not necessarily. We weren't going to be able to afford both Buckner and Armstead. Regardless of whether the pick received in the trade pans out/flops is inconsequential. The value received is always going to make this move a smart one.

Yea there are situations where both teams lose. Like how we won the Alex Smith trade compensation wise, we just f****d up the picks. That didn't mean KC won, because Alex always held them back from being real contenders until they drafted a franchise QB.

Why isn't this news plastered as the main article on the home page?

UNLESS we draft someone who ends up a MAHOME type of SUPERSTAR, the trade will never make any sense..
