I'd bet a paycheck this guy isn't on the roster by this time next year.

When he does you can make it out to Arkansas Children's Hospital.

I'd be happy to, fro!

Children's Hospital has to be smiling!

Lmao, went back and checked it out, straight up comedy. You ever notice it's always the same people saying the same negative things here? The same dudes say how the team sux and how the coaching sux, management sux, then on gameday disapear when the team wins and wins big games There's a bunch of fake ass fans in these boards, lol.

This! It's the reason I skim most posts since they're so laden with negativity and catastrophic thinking. I really wonder how some people operate in life lol.

Raise your hand if you thought this guys would play significant, impacting role this year? I sure didn't

Proof that NO draft picks are throways, that mindset is BS. Not all picks hit, I don't care who you are. But you have to ALWAYS be looking for impact players any time you are on the clock. This guys went from a nice little feel good story to a stud football player on a stud defense on a stud football team.

Hi.

Dude was a ward of the state, pulled himself up by the bootstraps, started 4 years for the Hogs and makes the pros. Webzone, you need to get behind him.

You were right.

Nah, I wasn't right. I just believed in him. He earned all of this. I am just very proud as an alum and as a fellow human being in how he has turned out as a person and a professional.

J. Polite was sitting there when they drafted that fkn punter. So stupid.

Lol

In his defense, our Punter does kinda suck.

Yeah, he does.

I was mostly poking at the Polite reference. Talk about a total s**t show.

If you need evidence that the media has no clue what the actual hell they are talking about and doesn't know the Niners at all, look at this espn article regarding grading offseason trades. It is written by Bill Barnwell. I'm effing floored at what they wrote about greenlaw and how they minimized his contributions this year as well as how savage it was of Lynch to get this guy in the 5th round. Here is the text (i can't get a screenshot to load so just copied it-)

"26. A 49ers linebacker has one huge moment
49ers trade: LB Dekoda Watson, 6-212
Broncos trade: 5-148

The 49ers used Watson, who never played a regular-season game for the Broncos, to move up one round and draft a reserve linebacker. Dre Greenlaw, the 148th pick, was forced into starting duty after Kwon Alexander tore a pec, and while Greenlaw was a step down from the former Buccaneers starter, he did come up with one of the biggest single plays of the season. He was in on the tackle of Jacob Hollister at the 1-yard line on the final play of the regular season, which saved a victory for the 49ers and kept them as the top seed in the NFC.

Greenlaw had help, and other players made far more of an impact over the course of the entire season. I suspect other linebackers could have made that play. In terms of swinging a team's championship odds over the course of one tackle, though, Greenlaw played a huge role in what was arguably the biggest play of the regular season.

Impact grade: D+"

What. THE. F*CK. Greenlaw has made more contributions to this team as a 5th round rookie than many other teams 1st rounders.

In on the tackle? It was probably the biggest legal hit of the season. What a tool this writer is.

it sure helps me. i wanted lazard but now i hate him and i hope he is hurt,. i do not mind if people get hurt as long as they are the right people. i will see his old man at a high school basketball game tonight and i will wear a niner shirt to taunt him. the hell with them all.

This young man going to be future leadership of this defense. I have no doubt.

The Jets should've drafted Dre Greenlaw 3rd overall.
