Right. I wanted one of them but with Stokes (and Samuel) gone it should've been Azeez seeing the value that was there.

The PI's and lack of QB hits has been the biggest thing holding the 9ers back. That has to be the priority of the offseason.

Should have been the priority for the team last year. Jason Verrett who I have a serious man crush on should be treated like a cherry on top of a sundae but this FO treated him like the hot fudge and when JV unfortunately went down our D turned into just vanilla ice cream with some nuts. And the same analogy can be said about Dee Ford both players are f**king great when healthy but neither should be considered main parts of your D. Instead we drafted a Guard and then a RB with injury history in the 3rd round that never stood except for a handful of games in college.

These Bosa boys are built different.

Dudes are just football players. Same way the Watt brothers are just football players.

Bosa has so much The Cowboy vibe. Would never thought I would see another Justin Smith again on the team. Yet here he is....

Hopefully the reconstruction goes close to as well for Kinlaw

It's a shame the Bosa/Ford tandem never was able to stay on the field much.

Back in the 70s the Niners had their greatest pass rushing duo in franchise history. Cedric Hardman and Tommy Hart terrorized QBs back then. Together they combined for 166 sacks in 8 seasons. Those were only 14 game seasons so you could easily add another 14 sacks or more if the played 16 game seasons. Hardman was double digits in sacks 6 times (5 straight) with a high of 18. Hart hit double digits 3 times with highs of 16 and 17.

If the Niners can ever find that 2nd guy that can actually stay on the field, We could see another duo like that. They were a big part of why the Niners were good in the early 70s including a couple of epic playoff battles with the Cowpies.

John Brodie was NFL MVP in 1970; a fantastic 49er Team with the 'Gold Rush' on D and Brodie throwing bombs to Gene Washington!

I really think it's more mental than physical for some guys. Hopefully Kinlaw has a similar outcome to Nick but that's unlikely. Kinlaw has a lot more weight to put onto those knees but I do think if he takes his rehab as seriously and gets his mind right then he can certainly be healthy enough to prove his worth for this team.

In hindsight I wish we shut him down earlier in the season but I also think his surgery wasn't as extensive as Nicks. So we'll see how it goes.

I'm really sad to see him go on IR. If he can bounce back to 100% - and the odds are supposedly good, that will definitely help in the future. We really need him back to be developed further by Kocurek. Our run defense took a big hit when we lost him.

I'm not concerned about Kinlaw coming back healthy. What concerns me is yet another offseason for him where he's not focusing on improvement. He's going to be spending the overwhelming majority of his time focusing on rehab and physical therapy instead of getting better. At this point going into his third year, I was hoping he'd be established as a dominant player. That's certainly not the case.

The glass half full mindset is we re-sign him in a year for even cheaper than his rookie deal and then he becomes dominant
