OL Laken Tomlinson, signs with NYJ

He can't be worse. It's not possible. Play him immediately. Beadles can follow Chip to the CFL. Get him out of here.

This guy can be worse than Beadles. Let us not forget Pears and Devey.

Magnus can play all 3..,C, OG, and OT. And beadles isn't the only guy who can't block...fusco was awful, and on watching second time, Kilgore got beaten like a drum. We need three OL srarters. None of these three blocked worth a hang .

Don't forget Theus...he also can play OG. That still leaves us one OL short. Cards have a guy on PS...who can't be as bad as any of these turnstiles.

In the meantime, I sure hope they don't get Hoyer killed.

It's bound to happen, Hoyer has never proven he could stay healthy. It's too bad for him and especially beathard when he has to come in behind this piss poor interior part of the oline. Then 98% here would be calling for beathard's head because he's not playing well when it's the damn oline

Hoping him and the Mag get the nod next week.

Isn't it about time the niners find their star udfa lineman like every other team has..Hopefully this kid from Michigan is exactly that..

What I don't understand is, why they would trade for him if he's never played in a ZBS before ?

Good question and that what a lot of where wondering as well lol...lions old GM who drafted him is our SPE now

I mean brown was a 7th rd pick lol close enough

Tomlinson wasn't even going to start in Detroit, so I don't think he's going to amen much of a difference this season. OG is another position SF will need to address this off season, that's unless Tomlinson and Garnett play to the potential they were drafted for.

If the Cards had a guy on the PS who was worth a s**t, they would bring him up because their OL was horrendous, worse than the 49ers easily. Mike Iupati plays like he just wants a paycheck and doesn't even try as a pass blocker anymore.


I think people are way overreacting to facing one of the best front sevens in football. Yeah the guard play isnt good, it wont be good but there is no real improvement out there to be found. Most NFL teams are struggling with OL issues. Go look how the Patriots OL got worked over by KC.


Against better front sevens, this team will have issues, regardless of who they put in there, especially considering that guys are still figuring out this scheme. It is going to get uglier before it gets better and even then the limiting factor will be the guard play ultimately.

Because he has played in a zone blocking scheme. Lombardi ran a very traditional ZBS his rookie year and Cooter runs a hybrid that combines zone and gap blocking concepts that utilizes quite a bit of outside zone.

This cant be over stated....judging by week one, OL play is BAAAAAD this year. There is a huge talent void in the offensive trenches. Draft and Free agency price for a quality OL was already steep and going to get worse. Obviously we are going to have to bite the bullet and pay that price but some of these teams have been trying to fix it for years with little success. There isn't going to be a magic bullet out there on a practice squad or the like, were going to have to look within the team and find the best three man combo for the middle. I think we may have honestly saw the worst one on Sunday so it should get better, but it may end up that Hoyer being super immobile combined with this guard play is just going to be a boat anchor. I don't think Beathard is better than Hoyer persay...but at least you could look at moving the pocket etc to help with him in there. It creates a higher possibility we see him in there after 5 or 6 games for sure.

Pears
I still cringe and get pissed that they let him play so long. It was so obvious Trent was a better RT
