The OL is such a blind spot for this regime. I do like Puni though.

I'm gonna go on a edge and say it's Chris Foerster more than Shanahan. I bet if he really told Shanahan he needed a RT, he'd get one.

I don't understand.
Kyle can't see what's going on to know this?

Top RTs are not just sitting around and they don't grow on trees

hopefully Feli comes back healthy and ready to go at Center and we really be cooking

Oh HOF lineman aren't sitting around waiting to be snatch up!!??
Hey thanks for the info lol.
Just straight to extremes.
Again, any rational person can see that our line as a whole could have used an upgrade through the years. I mentioned I would have preferred Kyle grabbing a lineman through the years instead of the rb's he's grabbed pretty high that have busted.
It's been said forever football is won in the trenches.
Giving your QB that extra 1/2 second helps out everyone, but most importently it should help prevent getting your QB smashed constantly.

what extreme? Are you saying any RT would be an upgrade?

Our OL hasn't stopped us from being a successful team, and only the Refs/Mahomes has been in our way from the ultimate goal

How do you know that if he had drafted O linemen instead of RBs tht they woud have been any good. He drafted McGlinchey in the 1st round. Where's he now? Banks and Puni are both starters. Burford is a rotational player. There are only 2 or 3 teams that don't have holes in the O line. Those teams were so bad for a long time that they were drfting high every year. Detroit finally got it right. Thankfully, the 49ers don't get to pick those top guys very often.

You have to at least try to bring in some real competition for Mckivitz. dude is just trash. the draft in general is a crap shot but you not gonna win if you don't roll the dice.

Actually, PFF ranks 75 OTs with the minimum number of snaps. McKivitz is #22, McGlinchey is #44 (he has missed a couple of games due to injury).

IMO, having the more dependable Puni next to him has helped him. Last year the back and forth between Feliciano and Burford was not good.

A lot of folks wanted the 49ers to draft Suamataia. Instead, KC drafted him and he has been legit trash - ranks 74 out of 75.
