Darn, you got us, and in our position of greatest need--inside linebacker.

Man, if you don't think Foster would upgrade a LB group that may start Michael Wilhoite or Terrance Gavin, I just don't know. Michael Wilhoite started for the Niners for a season, and while it was not altogether unpleasant, I'd never want to see it again.

Brian Hoyer will have like 3-4 games where he looks decent and you talk yourself into him like "wow we might actually have something here"

Then he'll violently poo poo his pants, get hurt or both, leaving sadness and destruction in his wake. Next year he'll move on to another team, whispering sweet nothings into the ear of a downtrodden fanbase desperate for something resembling competence. The cycle will begin anew.

Welcome to the Brian Hoyer Experience.

Are you saying the 49ers will win 3-4 games this year, and mocking fans with that? Because if they win 3-4 games this year, I am motherfucking celebrating.

The problem with Gabbert is that he's almost as bad as those guys, but he has some sort of voodoo magic that convinces coaches he's a viable long term option, and he's suddenly your starting QB for an entire season-plus.

Hmm OK. I didn't realize how old Kerley was (he was completely off my radar till last year).

Oh he's only 28, that's... not really that old for a receiver, though? But whatever, he's leaving a 2-win team from last year to join a 2-win team for this year, poor bastard.

His replacement is a draft pick by the new regime and also returns punts, so it was basically inevitable as long as he didn't poo poo himself in preseason play.

Pretty much everyone on the board was ranked higher than Ifedi. I was not a fan (also hated the 49er's Garnett pick, though that was because of scheme and not because of suck as in Ifedi's case).

I was wondering when they would post another Tom Cable apologism article. Field Gulls is usually pretty decent but they always try to go against the general fan discontent with Cable to try and show how oh no if you look statistically the line isn't that bad and will get better! It's infuriating

Fieldgulls is trash outside of Danny Kelly. Similarly, NinersNation is garbage unless it's something from the salary cap guy or one of the Better Rivals duo.

Basically SBNation predominantly sucks.

49ers are by no means a good team, but they do have a few good players and a great scheme on offense. Problems are mostly big holes in the roster, a loooooot of young players, and first year in a scheme that takes time to learn.

Starting the season against Panthers and Seahawks defense was not ideal for a group trying to find it's feet. Not that the Rams D is a pushover, but they're also going through first year/holes in roster issues.

Their best chance is going to be the colts in the week following, assuming Luck is still out. Then probably the Giants? I dunno, I still figure 2-5 wins, since chances are they'll fluke into a win or two.

Is it possible for the 49ers to just forfeit the rest of the season, and be granted the first overall pick now? It just seems so cruel to the players that keep fighting to win these close games, when we all know Hoyer will just piss away the opportunities they give him.

Outside of durability, no. He's a career backup. They're going to sign Cousins/Garoppolo or draft Rosen/Jackson, and Beathard will be the guy who helps out in the QB room and listens in on the headset for the next three years.
