Be interesting if he can be a contender at guard down the line. He has the requisite movement skills the 9ers like. Just need to add strength to his frame.

I can't remember who found him. I heard it before. Peters?

There was an article on him last week, he was 'discovered' by one of your regional scouts, I forget his name.

Well obviously Lynch found him he is the G.M.

Ah yeah. I was thinking Peters because of pro personnel...finding him in the AAF.

Daniel Brunskill's overall PFF grade from yesterday's game was 75.2

Pass block: 82.3

Run block: 68.6

Here's the best part. He only allowed ONE pressure.

I told you that there was nothing to worry about.

So anyways, Brunskill would put on a white tie and tails and walk his pet cobra through the park on a leash. He named the cobra "Beverly". And he taught it how to fetch and dial a phone. But then one day, it bit the maid. So with tears in his eyes, Brunskill had to shoot the maid.

Told yah we'd be fine.

You're not supposed to go into LA against Donald with you 4th and 5th string tackles and have it not be a big deal. Did either of them even have a penalty? Fowler was all but non existent except for a crucial off sides penalty.

For me, that would be more as much of an insult as what the defense did to Goff. When you have the best defensive player in the league going up against a couple of rookies in the most important position on the OL, and you can't get it done, you just got

I don't think Aaron Donald was stopped, he just didn't get enough support. 7 tackles, 2 sacks, 3 tackles for loss and a forced fumble--don't think Donald was their problem.

Psssh that's a Donald statline against a healthy O-line. Our much maligned O-line did fantastically holding Donald to the line above.....

I'm starting to wonder if the Shanahan RB magic can apply to OTs. It's too small of a sample size so far but it's promising.

As we discussed earlier in this thread, Shanahan knows the type of athletes and their skill sets that will work in his system. Consequently, it is no accident that he brought in two rookies with good agility and footwork, as witnessed by the fact they are former TEs in college. Just looking at both Skule and Brunskill move around in their sets shows basic ability that is hard to teach.

Agree

An add plus is that we have 2 guys to further develop for the future!
