Least healthiest team in the league....
Think about how bad the Bucs looked on SNF and then think about the crap our HC and QB have taken this year...
+ Show all quotes
imagine kyle with a healthy and stacked roster lol
He may never know. Seriously.
Not until we find a way to replace Dr Sum Ting Wong
Agree, I hear Dr. Sum Ting Wong is actually part owner now and he's not going to be fired.
But I think if I was Kyle, I'd change my draft strategy. He already has to a certain extent - by drafting players using a much more stringent medical review and assessment. Huf is an example of a player Kyle maybe would have drafted in day 2 but instead drafted him in day 3. I think much more is needed. I think you just throw more bodies at each position. They do a pretty good job of drafting on day 3. Just have more day 3 picks by trading some draft capital down. Like this last draft, they took Sermon *and* Mitchell, they took Banks *and* Moore, Thomas *and* Lenoir. Those moves have paid off in an injury sense. We have had good depth at RB and OLine this year - even with Mostert lost for the season, same with McGlinchy and Verett. I think they need to trade down more, get more bodies, and the model I'm advocating for that is the '86 draft.
I think if there's more competition, it forces players to take better care of their bodies. Example is Jimmy, because he knows Trey is waiting in the wings, he's much more careful about his body. He's still, on occasion, taking on linebackers, but I've seen more throws in the dirt and more just going down and getting out of bounds, vs him trying to get a first down by taking on that linebacker near the sideline.
The've drafted WRs - Trent Taylor, Dante, Richie, Deebo, Jalen, Aiyuk, and Jennings. That's 8 picks - and if you count Deebo, Aiyuk and Jennings as hits, that's a hit rate of a little under 40% I just say draft more WR's, and let the creme rise to the top. Draft more RB's, Draft more DB's etc... because it's been 8 years and counting and the 49ers have been at the top 5 as an injured team those 8 years NC's been keeping track. The people they draft **WILL** get injured, not if, and I say it's better to have (for example) three good RB's vs one outstanding RB and two average ones.
