Or maybe he knew Ulbrich to ATL was in essence going to be a done deal.

Then Kyle talked to him, and found out that Ulbrich would rather work for Raheem Mooris than Kyle. We are the losers.

Ulbrich was interim coach Raheem Morris' DC in 2020 in ATL. he probably liked working for him, and it's probably as simple as that.

Never understood the fascination with Ulbrich. He's going to a situation in Atlanta where he'll have another defensive coach looking over his shoulder so that might be the best possible place for him. Falcons fans don't seem very happy.

For me it's been pretty much Allen, Saleh or bust so no biggie. Not sure how many would have been excited to hear that Ulbrich was the new DC. Seems like two steps up from Sorensen, a step up from Staley and considerably below Allen or Saleh.
I take back what I said about Dennis Allen a couple days ago where I think he would just be an "okay" hire.

If Saleh gets hired as a HC I will throw a parade for Allen. Anything to get him here.

It would've been a "Meh" from me. I'm on the Allen boat as well, but no reports of an official interview at all so I don't even know if hes an option at this point. It really seems like a Saleh or bust.

I still don't understand how no one else is a better option at ST than sorensen.

He's a 10 year SF veteran. Anything close to equal, you Know where he goes. It's not. Where did DeMico go?

ESPN's Nick Wagoner, (49ers insider) has linked Allen to the 49ers, whatever that means

Who gives a crap? That was under a completely different admin. Falcons fans are pissed and are calling it a nepotism hire because Morris and Ulbrich are buddies.

Bottom line, fans just like to whine.

Shanahan has long respected Allen, as most recently evident in the fits Allen's defense gave Shanahan's offense in a Nov. 2022 victory in which the 49ers managed just 13 points on 4.7 yards per play against Allen's Saints.

What indication is there that Ulbrich would be improvement? He's never been DC without an established defensive minded HC running things.

You can at least look at Saleh, Allen, Anarumo and others and say that they ran their own defenses under offensive minded head coaches and have clear track records as the top defensive coach on staff.

I never wanted ulbrich at all. It's been Saleh with Allen right behind for me. Anything else will be disappointing. At this point I would be having the same emotions as I would with Saleh if Allen was the guy.
I prefer Allen over Saleh simply because there's no chance Allen gets hired away to be a HC.
