That's great.

What happens if McKivitz breaks his leg? Or Trent blows out a knee? Do the 49ers have depth as well?

Maybe they will sign someone from the FA pool that didn't get drafted.

Taking an OL just to take an OL is Commands draft strategy in a nutshell. Dem fighting words Lynch

You and 9ers4eva think we improved there after letting MM and Brunskill go?

Won't know till the young guys play.

You detested both so I'd think you would think they improved.

It could if that talent beat out McKivitz and integrated into the rest of the OL by the time the playoffs rolled around and our OL reached another level. Possible.

What if that talent is Burford? Or Poe?

At 99 (or 87), there were only a handful of T's and IOL taken. Adding to a talent pool can never hurt (see also, DL, LB, S, WR, etc.).

15 is a little more than a handful last I checked bud.

Given there's 400 OL, yeah, not that deep into the pool. LOL. It certainly didn't stop the other teams from adding.

Last year the 16th, 17th and 18th linemen taken were all drafted in round 3. None played a single OL snap.

So how is taking an OL at 99 going to assure our OL doesn't get punked in the playoffs?

They didn't have Colton McKivitz in front of them.

You didn't answer the question.

Williams + Banks + Brendel + Burford find cohesion and synergy and raise their standatd of play + a higher talent eventually beats out CM and gets up to speed by the playoffs with the group.

That's usually how it works unless you think CM is a top talent that can't be improved upon.

There wasn't a top end talent at 99.

I didn't detest them. I knew they'd get destroyed in the playoffs when it mattered so the goal was to move on and improve there.

Did we?

It was a top 5-10 pass blocking line last year via the metrics depending where you looked. Nothing to die on. I expect a FA added to the mixt and something similar this year.

I was expecting them to add a OT or two. Kinda bummed out given the guys there. I don't think our OL stinks or whatever.

Lol what?

You said both those guys sucked anyways so what the f**k are you trying to argue here?

You seem so convicted on that. Maybe there was a talented guy there who needed some development and refinement before taking over.
