Those picks won't come in until next season. So, yeah, I'm expecting us to have 3 comps from either the Ryans hire or Carthan hire, Jimmy G's contract, and Mike McGlinchey's contract. We should likely net a day 3 pick between Al-Shaair, Jimmie Ward, and Samsun Ebukam. I expect us to bring in one or two low cost FAs that will cancel out one of those signings.

rebrand as the San Francisco 49CompPicks

any chances we group some 3rds/4th for a 2nd rounder for his replacement if we don't resign him?

49ers fans are about to find out we can get worse if he leaves at RT. Yes we can. Certainly in run blocking. He's not as bad as made out to be here on this board. I wouldn't break the bank. But I would bet he's better than our backups. Colton McKivitz is pretty good. But I don't think he is as powerful as a run blocker. He may have a little better feet as a pass blocker. But I wouldn't be opposed to re signing Mcglinchey for a fair price. More depth at Tackle is always better than less. The season is long and there are lots of injuries.

You just said in the offseason need thread they need better pass blockers

Problem is a "fair price". He may get an offer well beyond a fair price from another team. It's a s**tty OL FA class

We can and probably will. Pre-season last year on paper it looked like a bottom 5 line. Everybody over performed including mglinctchey. It's highly likely that luck catches up and portion take a step back.

Unless more talent is added across the line I fear it's going to be painful.

Yeah that's right and you can do WORSE than Mcglinchey at RT. Wait until next year. You will BEG for him back. You will see soon. He's not as bad as the WZ thinks. Albeit not perfect. A better run blocker than pass blocker.

We could possibly be worse next year. On the offensive line. That will be bad for this team certainly.

But You said McKivitz is a better pass protector and that's what they need

I don't think the team risks loosing other good to great players at other positions over a fear of possibly being worse. It is math, you can't pay everyone.

I don't think your wrong tho, just as we found out how bad things can get when we ran out of QBs.... we could easily run out of tackles as well and have the entire offense look horrific.

Odds are McG is not worth market value, so the question is how far below market value with McG take. If he will not take less then market value (and I don't blame him if he takes the money), maybe the team splits the difference and gets a mid tier salary guy on the roster to hedge against the worst possible outcome.

At least in this case the 49ers have been grooming McG replacement for several seasons, it might end kinda the same.

Colton McKivitz has something like 330 snaps with zero holding calls and gave up 2 sacks

For Reference

Mike McGlinchey had 1000ish snaps this year with 10 flags and gave up 6 sacks.

Would not shock me if by mid season McKivitz looks fine.

It would be more fair to say we don't know what the line was going to look like, but that's not the way of the Zone. It's actually more likely the line gets better rather than worse, EVEN if they take a step back at right tackle given that everyone from LG-C-RG was a brand new starter. Realistically I'm expecting the line to be better in both pass blocking and run blocking (Brendel and more specifically Brendel hitting that weight room) because again, these guys were first time starters.

That would be huge if McKivitz or whoever is the replacement simply matches what McGlinchey did.

This is our best idea save the money and roll with a less high priced option, cross our fingers the play is as good or better it probably will be. McG is solid but lot of solid out there and you don't need to pay a king's ransom for solid.

Even if MCG was "solid" you know he's always good against a tough team to f**k up a play. He simply is not worth the price tag he's getting. Just hope McKivitz developed and turns out to be another late round steal or pray Moore does a complete 180 from whenever his ass stepped on the field. Either way this team has to improve on both lines

That is what we all hope...but what if he costs us the first half of the season while he learns?

At the same time McKivitz is "learning on the job," we will likely have a QB who is also "learning on the job."

With home field such a huge advantage in the playoffs, can we afford to sacrifice 2-3 games while a couple of guys at key positions learn how to play?

That is the question that will be fueling NT from now until September.
