Key + Hyder and a draft pick at edge should wrap up DL this year

Project run stopper would be nice too

I'm already in for Hyder elsewhere, so add me to the list of both.

DL Arden Key is headed for a visit with the #Lions today, source says. Coming off 6.5 sacks with the #49ers this past season after working on his technique to generate consistent pressure. Hearing there's a few teams in the mix for him but he starts with a meeting with Detroit.

Another one probably gone. We have definitely gotten worse as a team

Not really that concerned with losing Key.

Its a good front 7 draft

agreed. i think that is part of the JG issue

an extra 2nd rounder this year holds great value and can dramatically change the talent on our roster

I predict we go IOL and edge with our top picks

Yup, I am hoping we keep either Key or Willis, but spend the 2 on an edge who can contribute right away. Then the rest of the draft should be o-line and secondary lol.

If we get another 2 for JG (imo, doubtful at this point) then even better.

It seems Lynch is slow on the trigger. The strength of this team was the DL Try and keep at least one of the holdovers.

The money probably wasn't right lol. He should sign here and position himself for a bigger pay day next year. No one is buying high on a guy with 1 year of production in this system. I'd be leery of all free agent DL and RBs with 1 year of production from here in terms of a longterm commitment.

Lynch is probably asking players to let the 9ers match their offers

Again, deep Edge draft. I suspect they have multiple round 2/3 guys they are interested in drafting to fill this role.

if your theory is correct and with the team has ignored the trenches.. they need to have the draft of a lifetime.

If this is a deep Edge draft we need to definitely grab one and possibly two.

We need someone legitimate to team with Bosa as the other bookend. Would be great for that guy to be on a rookie deal for four years.

He will be another Kerry Hyder. Plays good here gets paid with another team and put up mediocre stats.
