I thought McGlinchey played pretty well.

His overall rating for the first week ranks him #14 among all tackles. Considering it was his first game back after a serious leg injury, that is pretty darn good.

The problem with MM is he seems to get beat at very crucial moments in the game and makes the same mistakes over and over. Not to mention this was probably MM's easiest matchup all season long. He scores high on PFF for run blocking but when you watch the film you'll notice he's very inconsistent in his run blocking angles, which wasn't nearly as much of a problem his rookie season.

I know he's coming back from injury and he can improve going forward but I don't think he should be a 49er next season.

I'll wait until the season is over to make that decision.

It all depends on his level of play this year, how much it might cost to resign him, and the prospects available to replace him. Assuming this team reaches the playoffs as expected, we won't be drafting a plug-and-play RT. Given that the price of FA OTs is going higher (Sportac puts the average salary at $13M/), it is very unlikely we will be able to replace his level of play for less than that market price.

All that leaves it up to the pieces we have to work with now. We know McKivitz and Skule are not the answer. Moore? Brunskill could move to RT as he has in the past but he would not be an improvement over McG, IMO. If Burford moves out, that leaves a hole to fill at guard. We need a Center...and the snowball rolls downhill from there.

Our best hope is that McGlinchey regains his form and RT is not a big need next season.

1. He got past 8 snaps
2. He finished the game
3. He looked like the old MM (gave up a huge 3rd down sack on a designed explosive play) but played well in the run game
4. Not on the injury report after the game and practicing

I'll take it especially given where he was just 2 weeks ago.

Progress is progress. Arrow up.

We only remember the sacks and pressures. He's better than McKovitz that's for sure. Glad he was able to finish the game and not be limited in practice the week after.

100%. Thinking with Brunskill out and next man up was McKivitz, I prayed for Trey. Prayers answered through week 1!

I think part of the issue with him is when he gets beat, he gets beat real bad.

And runs off the field not helping Trey get up.

And yelling, "Feels great baby!", while watching Lance get up.

And always on a big 3rd down moment when we really need him.

Agreed, he was having his best season last yr prior to the injury, and he's been good this year, the entire OL has, hopefully it continues, cause if it does, we can go far, deep roster, top 5, Super Bowl contender IMO.

Yup. I said previously that there was a slight chance he could play 'better' given he's been playing injured for a long time. But the odds didn't look good given the kind of surgery, knee tendinitis and then his "set back." It didn't look good at all. But you gotta give credit where it's due and through 2 games, he's played well and stayed healthy.
