Who do we give the ball to on 3rd and 3, 1 minute left in the 4th with the Niners up by 3?

The McKinnon signing means the clock is officially ticking on Joe Williams, who was drafted to be the speed back in Kyle's offense. But Breida outperformed him in training camp last year and Williams wound up on IR. That won't happen again. Williams will either show enough flashes of ability to earn a spot or he'll be sent packing.

Now to compliment Breida/McKinnon/Joe Williams etc.. we need that thunder than can operate in the zone run. Preferably a big back that has outside speed to scare defenses. Not a Saquan (he'll be gone), but maybe somebody *like* him somewhere in the 3rd through 5th rounds?
The fact that we paid a backup RB more than Hyde was willing to sign for 100% validates all observation that Hyde was never good for this system and there's just something missing in him.

Play action all day my guy. Shannahan ain't the run it up the middle on 3rd and 3 every time type of guy. But when we do run on 3rd and short juice will get some looks for sure.

Exactly. We didnt just fork over a tremendous amount of money to be a power run team.

The WZ is seething right now
Isn't Schrager a niner homer? lol he also said that we had quietly one of the better offseasons this year.
He's still a reporter man...he's not gonna lie about other teams willing to pay him because he might like the 49ers (which I don't think he does).

Lmao, already looking like Kentwan Balmer who can't handle competition.
Wait wtf is going on here? I don't get it
If this signing is what takes him to start stepping up his game then he has another thing coming. Looks like he didnt take advantage last year when he had his chance. Better bring it or he'll be

No but at some point if we are a great team we will be at cap limit, where cost effectiveness is a huge factor. Overspending leads to letting a great young player walking, or depletes depth
McKinnon for $4 million per year would be great
$5 million would be decent
Above 5 is overpaying
When the rest of the RBs on the team are on rookie/UDFA contracts who cares? It's like investing in another position group.

Originally posted by SunDevilNiner79:Agree. I think the signing of McKinnon means they may cut Joe if he's not up to playing in the NFL. I think Reuben's DV issue comes into play and they have learned their lesson.

I am generally confused as to why this poster said this
Anytime you have to redshirt a rookie RB, its largely a whiff. Any thing Williams can provide at this point will be a bonus but he showed up out of shape and got beat out by an undrafted back after the team had traded up for him.
That is a major disappointment anyway you slice it.
Correct
Joe will be fighting for a roster spot in TC
