I guess he should have waived Elway or Luck too if they had been drafted since they were from Stanford.

was surprised he made the 53 in the first place.
Hopefully he'll land on the practice squad.
Are Toilolo and Dwelley really that good? Waiving a draft pick over 2 scrap heap TE?

He was a 6th rounder, not a 2nd. very possible for a UDFA to be better than a late round pick.

Stanford could've used him today, UCF tore them a new affhole

For another team to claim him off waivers in the next 24 hours, they would have to add him to their 53 man roster. If he clears waivers we can sign him to our PS.

There is risk involved but they needed a roster spot and there was not a whole lot of choice. Who do you cut if not Smith? CJB was not going to be an option, they clearly are trying to hold onto him.

No kidding. I can't remember the last time Stanford gave up 45 points in back to back games. Time to lower the academic requirements.
He will clear waivers and can sit on the practice squad for a while. Time is on his side.

If worst comes to worst and our other three TE get injured we could always stick our punter in there to fill the gap.
I liked what I saw from him in the preseason

I look forward to having Kittle, Dwelly and Smith as our three TEs next year

hope so too, but if I was the 49ers personnel manager, I'd take the opportunity to see if there are *other* eligible TE's for the practice squad that *may* be better than Kaden that are out there in Undrafted land. Unlikely, I know, but it's a possibility.

Glad we had Toilolo today to help out blocking when Joe went down.
