We absolutey have.

Resigned Garappolo and Goodwin as well as key reserves in Kilgore, Marsh and Gilliam and signed the best corner in the league as well as the best pass blocking center and a stud RB.

Really good speed and hands but questionable vision and pass protection. I don't like what they paid for him. Would have much rather drafted a RB in the 2nd or 3rd rd....

His vision is outstanding and he had a high pass protection grade. What are you talking about?

people are just making s**t up now.

A lot of people here who know their stuff and have been playing football in college or earlier have been saying that since Kyle came on board. *I* could see it and I'm not anywhere near some of these folks in terms of expertise. 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?

For the love of god people stop looking at it as him being JUST a RB. he's a OW ( a real one) he's not gonna be a 1K RB he's gonna be a 1,200 line of scrimmage guy which is huge in today's game.
team him up with a Royce Freeman and we're gonna be very dangerous.

Who the hell is Royce Freeman?

Pass on Freeman:

Doesn't always play to his size. Too willing to eat contact rather than dole it out. Can be slowed by arm tackles. Hip tightness prevents him from consistently slipping leg tackles on perimeter runs. Jump cuts gain limited ground. Appears to anticipate contact at times when attacking run creases. Below average elusiveness once defenders close him out in the open field. Tires are missing some tread. Has had over 1000 touches during his career. Has become more of a grinder than a slasher as his career has moved forward. Lacks an explosive "get-away" gear to pull away from tacklers.

Oh thanks for copying and pasting his weakness from his draft profile lol.

Take the NYniner challenge and watch some film.

I don't know if you need a "thunder" option at RB when you have a FB like Juszcek. Thunder is only gonna get 2-3 carries a game, so let Juice fill that role.

Worked well for him in the Superbowl.

Definitely a better fit for the scheme than Hyde. Money to ne is whatever - I'm not paying him.

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

One thing about free agency. Rarely will a team get a potential impact player at a great price. Overpays are the norm.

While McKinnon was probably overpaid the Niners had no choice if he was the guy they identified and wanted for their scheme. Other teams were in the mix and all it takes is 2 teams to drive the price way up. With the cap space the Niners can afford it and if he can be an explosive 3rd down back then he will be worth it.

I do think the Niners need to draft a back who can give them more power in the 3rd or 4th round to compliment McKinnon and Breida/Williams. Now we pretty much know a RB, OG, and CB is likely off the plate in the first round and that Edge and LB will probably be where the team goes with the 9th pick.
