You lost many good free agents. Ebukam is a freak and Ward was your best safety. Hufunga is slower than molasses. At least you drafted a safety before trading up for a kicker. Hargrave absolutely gets tossed around against the run. Should be a good two games but don’t be surprised if we stomp your asses twice again like usual. ESPN ranked our roster higher. We’ve had 2 years to stack. We didn’t just stack for needs we stacked by best available and it is paying dividends.
you didn’t stack your Oline or your Dline though, not how you could of stacked them anyways. I get Pete has this build a defense from the outside in formula that sorta seems to work for him, but all of that corner and WR talent will die on the vine, again, if you cant beat us in the trenches.
If Purdy recovers back into the form we saw last year, our super bowl window just opens wider and wider with Football Jesus leading the charge. Kid dosent make mistakes. I still cannot believe what I saw from him, the poise, touch, high processing, no hesitation shooter mentality. And absolutely zero cringe at the podium, kid is a fkn soldier, sent by Jesus. Dude is an NFL Disney movie in the making.
you can’t beat Football Jesus, please.

Ward was mostly playing slot. The 49ers signed free agents who will be good replacments. Ebukam is a former 4th round pick who got 5 sacks a year. They signed two DE's (Ferrell, Bryant) that will get a great career boost just like Ebukam. Hargrave absolutely destroys with the pass rush, something the 49ers need because Bosa wasn't getting much help. ESPN is a bunch of hack writers who don't really know much about the west coast outside of the Lakers and the Dodgers. PFF ranks the 49ers #2 and the Seahawks #11. Seattle did little to improve their run defense and that's a problem against the 49ers.

So adding Bobby Wagner and DreMont Jones won’t improve our run D? Are you insane?

DreMont Jones is known for pass rush and last year was ineffective as a run stopper. The Rams gave up 200 more yards rushing with Wagner in 2022 than without him in 2021.

Stop it man you lost credibility by thinking Bobby Wagner is a downgrade. Especially over Cody Barton. This defense will be vastly improved against the run. We also brought Jarran Reed back into the fold. Also having a healthy Jamal Adams and rookies like Dereck Hall and Spoon and Young will without a doubt pay off. That’s what you get when you fleece another squad of there draft capital and players

No doubt Bobby has lost a step, but he wasn't the problem in LA last year. Aaron Donald (ever hear of him?) was hurt, and they lost a ton of talent on the D-line, including Sebastian Joseph-Day, Von Miller and Ogbonnia Okoronkwo. Not to mention that they lost Ejiro Evero to the Broncos. Even a young Bobby Wagner would not have saved the Rams last year.

In that case shouldn't the thread title be "Darnold will beat out Trey Lance for QB2"? Your (wrong-way) title is in the past tense, the right-way title would be in the future tense. You know, like foreshadowing the future

Ok Sheldon

Regarding the threads above, I'm just glad you agreed with every other point I made except Wagner. Pretty much total pwnage on my part.

I would point out that the 49ers specifically got Javon Hargrave to get better against the run, and Hargrave is not good against the run. The Seahawks did not get Dre'mont Jones to be a run stopper, but as a pass rusher/disruptor at defensive end. So while your criticism of Jones is off the mark, it applies more to the 49ers off-season moves.

Seattle replaced their defensive line.
I think we had the busiest offseason tbh. We retained our talent and got rid of a couple of unproductive old vets. The defense is absolutely loaded but then again so is the offense especially at receiver

Yeah the 49ers got Hargrave to improve the # 2 ranked rush defense. Needed all the help they could get there :rolleyes::rolleyes:

They got Hargrave for pass rush from the interior. He may not even be in the D line rotation on first down much the way the rotate D linemen.

Adding Hargrave to the 49ers reminds me a little of the Seahawks adding Sheldon Richardson to a strong defense and D-line in 2017 (Bennett, Clark, Reed, Jefferson, Avril). He didn't make as much of an impact as people had hoped, and the Seahawks missed the playoffs that year.

I don't care about Seahawks-49ers "rivalry". I want to bet on which downtown has more fentanyl in it? Could Seattle and SFO compete in the hobo Olympics? Who has better protesting/rioting? Which city has a better DEI program?

One more event: "Guess the sidewalk turd......dog or human?"

They lost Ebukam (a freak on the D line) Al Shaair (really good linebacker)and Ward (decent safety). But you picked up Kerry Hyder lmao 🤣
Then you traded up for a kicker 😂
Somebody give John Lynch GM of the year again lol
