It's a shaky ass bunch outside of Trent. I just pray for the best. I don't expect pass pro to be any better. Hopefully they actually give Puni a shot at starting. But history tells us they won't unless there is an injury.
A Super Bowl is Shaky now? Lol

What do you mean?
He said the line is shaky outside of Trent, but that outside shakeyness got us to a Super Bowl

We got to the SuperBowl in spite of that shakiness. It's a gamble to assume we can continue to overcome it again.
Football doesn't work in spite.

whats to gamble, 3 NFCCG in a row is proof enough.

Ah I see, thanks. By that same logic the naysayers can say we also lost two superbowls as well lol.
Either way, you can't make it that far if the line is bad is the point.

I am in the middle on that. I think Kyle can scheme around weaknesses insanely well, but to a point. So when you get towards the end talent shows up regardless of how much scheme you can muster up etc.

I think we said it before. This is how this regime goes about their business, hard to argue much of it, but o line is the main area we all debate on and nobody will complain if they ever invest more heavily into it either.

I really hope he surprises us and throws Puni out there.
Why would you be in the middle on that if Kyle is making water into wine with the OL? That would make him a miracle worker ?

also when you say in the end, talent shows. our OL wasn't to blame for our SB loss. No CMC fumble, No punt turnover and No Greenlaw jumping like a mad man nullifies a close game at the end. Meaning Chris Jones isn't a factor. Ball security was the issue,

as for business, like I said in my post above and the details on how much we invested a few pages back. We done a great job at building OL with where we are now and where we started. Drafting late will not get you the top consensus pick, unless you trade up.

our picks look good this year but they are the same as years before (Later round guys). As a fan base we just need to be patient while we keep stacking wins and finally get over the hump.

The o-line didn't help much either in SB. Untimely mistakes are there. Not sure why the football gods don't favor the 49ers anymore.

Unless Kyle starts Puni it's the same line. That's crazy to me since the consensus is this is the weakest part of the roster.

Patience is all we have, it's been 30 years since we last won it all and Kyle is entering year 8 already? Damn.

I said it before, the best hope for me is Purdy, but I'd like to see him behind a wall.
The Chiefs OL wasn't helping the chiefs either. But the most flagged OL wasn't flagged once.

With our roster, no doubt our OL would be up towards the weakest. Our roster is pretty dope

if puni doesn't work out, does that mean we haven't invested? I think not.

I certainly agree about the chiefs. We need Puni to work out, I feel it would improve the line assuming feliciano could take over center. Aside that we need McKivitz to improve as well otherwise we will be having this same conversation yet another year.
The priority is clear. The front office puts an emphasis on players that touch balls.

"I've heard the narrative that we're ignoring the O-line and everything," Shanahan said. "If we felt the O-linemen was the best pick there, there's no doubt that's who we would take. But there's some O-linemen there, at the end of the first round, that you feel they have just as good of a chance as a guy at the end of the second round. One's a higher prospect and might have a higher ceiling, but not too concerned about the ceiling. I want to know if he's going to be a starting left tackle, a starting left guard, whatever, starting NFL player."

I can't say I agree with Kyle, but I also think they Are putting more priority on the OLine, with the Kingston/Puni picks.

Kyle does regularly find his athletic OLinemen later in the day three draft. I think he is confident because of his offensive system. The outside zone simply doesn't need dominant OLines to function ok.

He does prioritize the left and right OT's though. They are key to running left and right and also protecting the QB's Blind side.

Then why no emphasis on the Center position? He touches the ball on every snap

Are you suggesting it was? If you are trotting out the same 5 as last year then no, you didn't improve.

Depth is better yes.

If Burford isn't on the team it's an improvement.

How is the depth better this year?

Ummm, they are all rookies who haven't played a single NFL game to this point. How does that = better depth???

So what you are saying is that you "hope" there is better depth due to the rookies we added up front.

With T Trent Williams not here yet, what kind of impact does that have on the room here in the early days of training camp?
"Other guys have to step up. [OL] Jaylon [Moore] gets his reps, which he would this time of year anyway. Trent would usually take a day off. In the offseason program, usually Jaylon gets all the work. So unfortunately, it's always been a problem for Jaylon. He hasn't had a chance to compete at other positions because he's always kind of filled in for Trent in this time of year. So obviously you worry about the guys that are here. Jay and the guys are working really hard. It's been a good start to camp. First couple days have been good. It's been good to see."
Chris really likes Jaylon at left tackle. I think the 49ers will live and die by that decision this year.
