Speaker 1: It's time time to bring the forty nine ers to
Speaker 1: the forefront.
Speaker 2: Let's go time time. This is the best team that
Speaker 2: they can put on the field this year. Welcome to
Speaker 2: Niners Nightly. You guys are gonna hear it the latest
Speaker 2: from the locker room, the latest from the podium, the
Speaker 2: latest scuttle from the players. On your proud home of
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers football.
Speaker 3: K and br V Sports Leaders, your faithful fix with
Speaker 3: your host Larry Krueger begins.
Speaker 2: Take phone calls. We'll talk Niners for a full hour,
Speaker 2: fired up, really excited. No no, no, no no, and
Speaker 2: away we go. It is Niners Nightly, Late night, late
Speaker 2: night edition. As we come to you at eleven minutes
Speaker 2: after nine. We're already well on in our way to
Speaker 2: our to our nine o'clock hour, but we open up
Speaker 2: the phone lines at eight. Away kmbr And what do
Speaker 2: you think about the forty nine ers coming into this year?
Speaker 2: Today was a long day, got up at three o'clock
Speaker 2: in the morning, flew to La so I could be
Speaker 2: there for joint practices. And you say, Krug, you're maniac.
Speaker 2: Well you know what the schedule this week? The Niners
Speaker 2: are off tomorrow, right, and then they they play the
Speaker 2: game Thursday, which is you know, of course that will
Speaker 2: be on TV, but that's almost kind of like an
Speaker 2: off day as well. And then they're off on Friday,
Speaker 2: so it's like, hey, you know what if you cover
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. You know, today was the day,
Speaker 2: I mean to, this was the day to you know,
Speaker 2: extend and be at the joint practice. And it did
Speaker 2: not disappoint. You know what was really interesting there was
Speaker 2: not one fight, not one. And I asked Harbaugh about
Speaker 2: it because Alex Boone told me last week that Harball
Speaker 2: used to have a rule when he was with the
Speaker 2: Niners that if you threw a punch, you were fined
Speaker 2: twenty five hundred bucks. And he said. Boone told us
Speaker 2: that one time he threw three punches in a game
Speaker 2: and like Carball's like, hey man, you'l seventy five hundred bucks.
Speaker 2: And I asked Harbor about that today and He's like,
Speaker 2: had no recollection and I don't know, I don't remember that.
Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, Jim's kind of an odd
Speaker 2: duck sometimes, but I asked him, I said, well, you know,
Speaker 2: the Niners had twelve to fifteen fights with the Titans.
Speaker 2: You know, what's your approach to the practice. And he's like, hey,
Speaker 2: we're here to get work done. We're trying to get
Speaker 2: ready for the season. And they came out today, the
Speaker 2: Chargers did. They were very professional. And then after the practice,
Speaker 2: I said to Shanahan, I'm like, Kyle, you know the
Speaker 2: last practice, you guys said twelve to fifteen fights. None
Speaker 2: today not one, Like what did you say to these guys?
Speaker 2: And He's like, I attributed to the coach. You know,
Speaker 2: the head coach of the Chargers is really professional, and
Speaker 2: he's he's you know, he's taking a dig at Sala
Speaker 2: and everybody started laughing because we all know Solas's buddy.
Speaker 2: But Kyle also made a point. He's like, you know,
Speaker 2: sometimes when practices, the joint practices start with fisticuffs that
Speaker 2: it just can't get out of that lane. You know.
Speaker 2: It's like it's like that's the tempo, that's the that's
Speaker 2: the mood is guys are throwing hands. And I mean
Speaker 2: watching Niners Titans last Thursday, it was like they fought
Speaker 2: on the third play, and then the fifth play, and
Speaker 2: then the seventh play, and then the eighth play, and
Speaker 2: then the tenth play and then the twelfth, so they
Speaker 2: were throwing hands early, and it was the young Niner defense.
Speaker 2: The Niner offense didn't weren't weren't really fighting. It was
Speaker 2: the Niner defense. And the Niner defense is really young. Well,
Speaker 2: the Titans team is really young, and they're also not
Speaker 2: a super Bowl contender. They've won three games back to
Speaker 2: back years, so you know, maybe that's all they got
Speaker 2: is the is let's brawl it out with the Niners.
Speaker 2: Where this Charger team is a super Bowl contender and
Speaker 2: they they've got high expectations for their year and they're
Speaker 2: trying to get things done. And I watch mostly the
Speaker 2: Niner offense against the Charger defense. The way their fields
Speaker 2: were set up, it was like back to back and
Speaker 2: you had to choose one or the other. And I
Speaker 2: was just on the field side that had the Niner offense,
Speaker 2: and I thought the Niner offense looked pretty good. I
Speaker 2: asked Brock at the end of practice, I said, Brock,
Speaker 2: how'd you feel about it? And He's like, you know what,
Speaker 2: I didn't like it. I mean, he basically was pissed.
Speaker 2: He's like, you know, we didn't play well at the end.
Speaker 2: You know, Kyle's like, we looked pretty good early. But
Speaker 2: in the move the ball drill, we didn't move the ball,
Speaker 2: and in the red zone we didn't score. And in
Speaker 2: the you know, the team drills, we didn't get the
Speaker 2: you know, we didn't get the moves. We didn't make
Speaker 2: the kinds of plays that Kyle wanted to see them make.
Speaker 2: So he was not particularly happy, and obviously he said
Speaker 2: something to the team, because Perdy talked to us after
Speaker 2: and basically echoed what Kyle said, which is like, hey, look,
Speaker 2: we got to be better than that. We were, you know,
Speaker 2: we weren't very sharp today. But the first part, you know,
Speaker 2: I thought Brock was making a number of interesting plays.
Speaker 2: Sometimes he completes like a ridiculous percentage of his passes,
Speaker 2: like eighty percent of his passes today, that wasn't the case.
Speaker 2: The windows were tight, the coverage was tight. Derwin James
Speaker 2: is a stud. He's an amazing player, and he got
Speaker 2: his hands on a number of footballs. And I would
Speaker 2: say that the Niners, you know, struggled to protect rock
Speaker 2: Party and then that also kind of that's another weird
Speaker 2: thing about these joint practices, Like when you struggle to
Speaker 2: protect your quarterback, then it's like d Lineman tag off
Speaker 2: in your quarterback, but the play continues. And then some
Speaker 2: of those plays Rock Party threw balls down the field
Speaker 2: and connected, you know, to Stribbling or Evans or DeMarcus Robinson.
Speaker 2: But we just saw Khalil Mack tag off on him.
Speaker 2: So it's like you put it down in your notes
Speaker 2: as that was a sack, But in reality, the play
Speaker 2: continued and we got a party to you know whatever,
Speaker 2: party to Jacob cowing down the field pass play. So
Speaker 2: you got to kind of watch it and figure out
Speaker 2: what you're watching, because you know, a lot of times
Speaker 2: the running backs, they don't tackle the running backs to
Speaker 2: the ground. They tag off on the running backs. So
Speaker 2: a lot of times the running back will get tagged off,
Speaker 2: but then he keeps running and then maybe he runs
Speaker 2: thirty five yards down the field. But was that a
Speaker 2: thirty five yard run? Or was that a thirty five
Speaker 2: yard run after Nick Martin had a three yard loss
Speaker 2: in the backfield, you know what I mean. So the
Speaker 2: joint practices are hard to evaluate just in real time.
Speaker 2: If you sit there like the coaches and you can
Speaker 2: roll that film back and forth and then you can say, okay,
Speaker 2: you know this is what actually happened on this play.
Speaker 2: This is what actually happened on that play, And they
Speaker 2: probably have a different account, like the Niner coaches probably
Speaker 2: have a different account of how things went today. But
Speaker 2: I would say one thing that's really clear when you
Speaker 2: take Nick Bosa and mckel Williams off the field for
Speaker 2: the forty nine er defense, they don't have players that
Speaker 2: can replicate Nick Bosa and Mickel Williams. They didn't put
Speaker 2: any heat on Herbert. Herbert carved them up lots of
Speaker 2: pass plays. They also have lots of speed, and the
Speaker 2: Niners secondary is not a burning secondary. And Brennan Thompson,
Speaker 2: the Wazoo rookie who runs like four three two or whatever,
Speaker 2: he's just super burner, probably one of the fastest guys
Speaker 2: we've seen come into the league in the last two
Speaker 2: or three years. You know, he's running right by jy
Speaker 2: Yr Brown. It's just a mismatch as far as speed.
Speaker 2: So when you don't have Bosa and you don't have Mkel,
Speaker 2: you're not putting pressure I mean up the you're not
Speaker 2: putting pressure off the edges, and then you're not setting
Speaker 2: the edge in the run game. So we saw mari
Speaker 2: On Hampton and Keaton Mitchell just truck Niners and run
Speaker 2: away from them all day. I mean, every time I
Speaker 2: looked over there on the binoculars, somebody was busting out
Speaker 2: of fifteen or twenty yard run. And it's just because
Speaker 2: you know, and it's not it's not the forty nine
Speaker 2: ers of this horrible team. But they're missing Nick Bosa
Speaker 2: and Michel Williams. And then the two's at defensive end
Speaker 2: or Samo and Keon White. Keon's coming off an ankle.
Speaker 2: So then you got Quinton Bell, he's undersized. You got
Speaker 2: Ramelo Heid he's undersized. You got Ogbo Aronquo, he's a
Speaker 2: little bit undersized. So you got some guys off the
Speaker 2: street and the Xavier Thomas, Victor de Macage, Quinton Bell.
Speaker 2: These guys were signed off the street. They're not great players,
Speaker 2: They're they're street free agents. So you know, there's some
Speaker 2: there's some issues there with depth on that defensive front.
Speaker 2: And the Niners have some special players, but if they
Speaker 2: don't have Nick Bosa and they don't have Mkel, they're
Speaker 2: not gonna look as good. So defensively, I thought that
Speaker 2: was the issue. No mckel, no Bosa, couldn't stop the run.
Speaker 2: Couldn't know, couldn't set the edge in the run game,
Speaker 2: didn't burn the edge at Herbert, and Herbert did whatever
Speaker 2: the heck he wanted. Now, the one guy on defense
Speaker 2: that should have been given an award today is OsO
Speaker 2: Digie Zua. What a phenomenal pickup OsO Diggi Zua is
Speaker 2: for the forty nine ers. Dallas traded a really good
Speaker 2: defensive tackle to the Niners in the prime of his career,
Speaker 2: and he dominated today. Oh my god, Chargers have really
Speaker 2: good offensive tackles, their interiors not the best. And OsO
Speaker 2: Diggy Zua. I mean, I probably counted five times that
Speaker 2: he tagged off on the quarterback. He probably had five sacks.
Speaker 2: He really was back there and giving them all they wanted.
Speaker 2: So he looked amazing and continues to just play at
Speaker 2: a really really high level. But everybody else just okay,
Speaker 2: just okay. I mean, the linebackers weren't making tons of plays,
Speaker 2: you know, the secondary looked like they were outgun speed wise.
Speaker 2: We saw a couple plays here and there. Upton Stout
Speaker 2: made one nice play, but it was the Niner defense
Speaker 2: got worked I thought the Niner defense got kind of
Speaker 2: worked over pretty good. Now on the other side of
Speaker 2: the field, the Niner offense. You know, you don't have
Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey, but what you did have today was Kaylon Black.
Speaker 2: And you know, the forty nine Ers don't just need
Speaker 2: good players out of this draft. They need great players.
Speaker 2: What was the last time the forty nine ers drafted
Speaker 2: a great player? Brock Purty. If you want to call
Speaker 2: them that, some people don't. Won't even call them that.
Speaker 2: The Niners at twenty look at the Niner twenty one draft,
Speaker 2: twenty two draft, twenty three draft. There's nobody there. There's
Speaker 2: nothing there. They missed on those three drafts. They badly
Speaker 2: need great young players in the worst way. They don't
Speaker 2: need somebody who can make the team. They got enough
Speaker 2: guys who can make the team. They need somebody who's
Speaker 2: gonna start. They need somebody who's gonna star. You know,
Speaker 2: you look at their their team. Hittle is a star,
Speaker 2: older BOSA star, older Trent Star, older CMC star, older,
Speaker 2: Fred Starr, older Bosa star old, Their Drew Green lost
Speaker 2: are older. Who's their young stars? Well, today was a
Speaker 2: great day on that front because Kaylon Black and day
Speaker 2: Sean Stribbling looked great today. Not good, not pretty good,
Speaker 2: not very good.
Speaker 1: Great.
Speaker 2: Kaylon Black is so quick, so explosive, he can block,
Speaker 2: he can catch. You know, watching Khalil Herbert and Zamir
Speaker 2: White and you know, I mean just watching their Patrick
Speaker 2: Taylor and you know, watch it Sincere McCormick and then
Speaker 2: put Kaylon Black out there. It's like, WHOA, this guy's
Speaker 2: running at a totally different speed. This guy is playing
Speaker 2: at a totally different level. The most exciting part I
Speaker 2: think about the Kaylon Black thing as far as people
Speaker 2: being impressed by him. What makes him so great is
Speaker 2: the power and that he has in the legs. He's
Speaker 2: an amazing short yardage runner. But nobody knows that yet
Speaker 2: because most people who cover the Niners don't watch college football,
Speaker 2: and they didn't watch this guy in Indiana. They watched
Speaker 2: him a little, but they didn't watch them a lot.
Speaker 2: They don't realize most of the people who cover the
Speaker 2: Niners have no idea that Kaylon Black is one of
Speaker 2: the best short yardage running backs to come into the
Speaker 2: league in quite a while. He's got power in those legs,
Speaker 2: that's his greatest strength. There's bigger backs, there's faster backs,
Speaker 2: there's backs that catch it out of the backfield better.
Speaker 2: There's backs that hit the hole harder, there's backs, I mean,
Speaker 2: but this guy he had he averaged three to two
Speaker 2: three point two yards after contact this year. That's a
Speaker 2: great number, that really is. And if you watch him,
Speaker 2: that's his thing where the Niner fans are gonna love
Speaker 2: Kaylon Black is that when you get to third and two,
Speaker 2: you can add it to him and he's gonna get
Speaker 2: those two every time. Or in the fourth quarter of
Speaker 2: a game when you're looking to put the game away
Speaker 2: and you you don't want to put your defense back
Speaker 2: out there again. You want to finish the game with
Speaker 2: your offense. Kaylon Black is gonna get that those extra yards.
Speaker 2: You saw if you watch him in the Senior Bowl.
Speaker 2: You saw it. First play from the Senior Bowl. They
Speaker 2: blocked it for about two three yards. He went for
Speaker 2: five or six. Great second effort. Second play the Senior
Speaker 2: Bowl was blocked for like five or six yards. He went,
Speaker 2: he runs his five or six yards. But wait a second,
Speaker 2: he's still going second effort, third effort. That run he ran,
Speaker 2: he ran eight yards and he got the first down.
Speaker 2: So that's his greatest thing. Man, he is. He's such
Speaker 2: a strong back. He's such a good he can push
Speaker 2: the pile, he can run through arm tackles. This guy
Speaker 2: is gonna be the guy. He's gonna be a continuity piece.
Speaker 2: He's gonna be the reason that your offense stays on
Speaker 2: the field because he's gonna convert those third downs. To
Speaker 2: see MC have a weakness, not many, but if there
Speaker 2: is one. He's not a great short yardage back. I mean,
Speaker 2: he's good on the he's good in the red zone,
Speaker 2: don't get me wrong. But as far as pushing the
Speaker 2: pile and a real power driver, he's not. That's not CMC.
Speaker 2: That's not who he is. That's not He could do
Speaker 2: it a little, but he doesn't. That's not his bag.
Speaker 2: This guy is a great compliment to CMC. So Kaylon Black,
Speaker 2: who's been out for about a week with a groin strain.
Speaker 2: They call it the adductor muscle. Now it's no longer
Speaker 2: a groin, it's an adductor. So he's he was back
Speaker 2: and he was phenomenal today. Phenomenal just you know, up
Speaker 2: and down the field, hitting the whole quick, powerful, explosive, decisive.
Speaker 2: Steve Weisch did a whole thing in the NFL Network
Speaker 2: about the great backs that he saw today and he's
Speaker 2: talking about a Mario and Hampton. He's talking about this kid,
Speaker 2: Kaylon Black. So that's number one. Number two day Sean
Speaker 2: stribbling is really really exciting. H huge hands over ten
Speaker 2: inch hands. There's very few guys who can watch them,
Speaker 2: you know, in their uniform and say, wow, that guy's
Speaker 2: got big hands. Most people you can't spot big hands. Nobody,
Speaker 2: the average person can't say, oh, you know, if this
Speaker 2: guy's got eight in the third inch hands, and then
Speaker 2: somebody else could watch, Oh, look at this guy. He's
Speaker 2: got ten inch hands. Most people can't pick that out.
Speaker 2: But man, you can see this guy's gigantic myths. And
Speaker 2: he is catching the ball so much like a veteran.
Speaker 2: I mean, most rookies don't make contested catches. They don't
Speaker 2: catch it in a crowd. They drop it, they juggle it,
Speaker 2: they don't catch it cleanly. This guy is catching the
Speaker 2: ball in traffic, in the middle of the field, contested catches,
Speaker 2: ripping it away from veteran you know, dbs. And he's
Speaker 2: doing it regularly, and he's got four to three speed
Speaker 2: and he's six to three and he's like, you know,
Speaker 2: he's just totally undeterred by you know, the step up
Speaker 2: from Ole Miss to the NFL. He's most rookie receivers
Speaker 2: do nothing. Heck, Jerry Rice struggled as a rookie. You
Speaker 2: got it going of course in the in late in
Speaker 2: his rookie year. And of course we all know he
Speaker 2: you know, when he got it going, he never stopped going.
Speaker 2: But Jerry, if we had Jerry here right now, he
Speaker 2: would tell you, man, he struggled with concentration drops as
Speaker 2: a rookie. There's a lot going on. Your head's spinning,
Speaker 2: you're learning these plays. Being a wide receiver at the
Speaker 2: NFL level is like way, way, way more complexity to
Speaker 2: what you see any college program. In college, they hold
Speaker 2: up like a purple card. Your this is your play,
Speaker 2: this is your this is what you need to know purple.
Speaker 2: In the NFL, it's like, we need you to run
Speaker 2: this route and it's got an option to it, and
Speaker 2: it's got to be run at eight yards of depth,
Speaker 2: not six, not ten, you know, and and then and
Speaker 2: and and if you you know, there's there's variables that
Speaker 2: come into the play, if you know, depending on what
Speaker 2: the defense does. It's a lot more complicated. And so
Speaker 2: guys can't play fast because they're thinking. And if you're thinking,
Speaker 2: you're not you're not running and you're not playing top speed.
Speaker 2: And that's what you know. Dejon Stribbling should be right,
Speaker 2: he should be a rookie wide receiver who's struggling with
Speaker 2: the complexity of an NFL offense. But no, he's not.
Speaker 2: He's catching everything that's thrown his way. He's making contested
Speaker 2: catches in the middle of the field. I mean, there's
Speaker 2: a bunch of guys giving him different nicknames. Somebody's like
Speaker 2: in the middle of one of the old lignement was like,
Speaker 2: what do they call him stribbler? Stribbler or something like that.
Speaker 2: Today go Stribbler. But he's he's real, man, He is real,
Speaker 2: and he's really you know, Dejon Stribbling and Black are
Speaker 2: not just going to be on the team. They're gonna
Speaker 2: be major Key Coggs on the team. Kaylon Black's gonna
Speaker 2: be one of their better backs. He's RB two for sure.
Speaker 2: Dejon Stribbling may wind up being their best receiver this year.
Speaker 2: I know they have Mike Evans, I know they have Debo.
Speaker 2: I know they've got DeMarcus Robinson looking great. They've got
Speaker 2: Jordan Watt Stribbling looks like he's got the potential to
Speaker 2: take over the number one gig here. So those two
Speaker 2: guys looked really good. Shanahan told us after practice that
Speaker 2: CMC is not holding out. It's not contractually related. He says,
Speaker 2: he's still tight. I just they don't want to play
Speaker 2: him in August. Why would you. He's had four hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty plus touches last year. No no player in
Speaker 2: the NFL in the last decade has had even four
Speaker 2: hundred touches. CMC had four fifty plus when you count
Speaker 2: the playoffs. So hell if you were going to use
Speaker 2: this guy in July and August. Shannan said it today,
Speaker 2: you know, And I was telling people this the last
Speaker 2: two days. I'm like, he's not holding out, and he's
Speaker 2: and he's not out because he's hurt. He's out because
Speaker 2: he's super valuable and they can't afford to lose him.
Speaker 2: And it's the middle of August and they don't play
Speaker 2: a real game until September the tenth. And Shanahan said
Speaker 2: it today after practice. He's like, if this was a
Speaker 2: week one game, CMC would be out there. And then
Speaker 2: he said, and by the way. The same thing goes
Speaker 2: for Bosa. So Bosa's not hurt. Bosa was sprinting full
Speaker 2: bore just two days ago. CMC tightness. I'm not saying
Speaker 2: he's not tight, but once again Shannan said it today,
Speaker 2: if there was a if this were a week one game,
Speaker 2: he'd be out there, They'd both be out there. So
Speaker 2: CMC is going to be there, Bosa is going to
Speaker 2: be there. The bigger concern is it doesn't look like
Speaker 2: Michel Williams is going to be there week one, and
Speaker 2: he may have to go on the pup. And it
Speaker 2: doesn't look like George Kittle is going to be their
Speaker 2: week one and he may start on the pup. So
Speaker 2: a lot of talk about Bosa and CMC, will they
Speaker 2: be there, will they not be there? Well, I think
Speaker 2: they're gonna be there, but Michel and Kittle may not
Speaker 2: be there, and they those are two key key guys
Speaker 2: for the forty nine ers. Another guy who had really
Speaker 2: nice day to day, Deebo Samuel looks terrific. He probably
Speaker 2: took the biggest pop of the day, but man, he
Speaker 2: looks lean and mean. I don't think I've seen Deebo
Speaker 2: look this good physically since twenty twenty one when he
Speaker 2: had his amazing year where he scored fourteen touchdowns. So
Speaker 2: he looks primed for a big year. That would be
Speaker 2: odd if he had one, but I wouldn't I you know,
Speaker 2: I don't think it's out outside the realm of possibility
Speaker 2: that he could have a bounce back year. Trent Williams
Speaker 2: said it to us the other day. He's like, this
Speaker 2: is the best I've ever seen Deebo Samuel as far
Speaker 2: as conditioning, and I agree. Once I saw that he
Speaker 2: was in that kind of shape, I'm like, sign this
Speaker 2: guy you kidding me. He's got two modes. When he's
Speaker 2: out of shape, you don't want him, and when he's
Speaker 2: in shape, you desperately want him. And he's in shape.
Speaker 2: So that was a good thing. We saw that today
Speaker 2: as well. All Right, we'll take a time out. Raj
Speaker 2: Melwune's gonna join us. He is the czar of all
Speaker 2: that is RSF forty nine ers. If you want to
Speaker 2: chime in, feel free bang the number eight aweight cambr
Speaker 2: How do you feel about the Niners as we sit
Speaker 2: here in mid to late August, just a couple of
Speaker 2: weeks from week one? Do you feel like this is
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl team. Do you feel like this is
Speaker 2: a team that's gonna gonna disappoint? Aightaway Cambr if you
Speaker 2: want to chime in, we can take some of your calls,
Speaker 2: but we will welcome Raj Melwaune to the CAMBR airwaves. Next,
Speaker 2: I'm the sports Leader. This is where you get your
Speaker 2: faithful facings Niners Nightly with Larry Krueger.
Speaker 1: It keeps a rolling on KNBR the Sports Leader and.
Speaker 2: We keep things rolling. It's Niners Nightly, Larry Krueger with you.
Speaker 2: Lengthy day today was in LA for the joint practices.
Speaker 2: We're back and we're here doing Niners Nightly, and we
Speaker 2: welcome to the line Raj Melwanee, who does an amazing
Speaker 2: job with running his YouTube channel and all that he
Speaker 2: does with RSF forty nine ers. You've probably read many
Speaker 2: many of Raj's postings on the Niners, not even knowing
Speaker 2: that that's his deal RSF forty nine ers. And he's
Speaker 2: with us on the UMA guest line to talk some
Speaker 2: Niners after attending almost all of training camp. Raj, always
Speaker 2: great to have you and and today was a fun
Speaker 2: day Niners and Chargers joint practice in Southern California, and
Speaker 2: didn't sound like Shanahan was too pleased, didn't sound like
Speaker 2: brock Pertty was too pleased overall with kind of the
Speaker 2: way the offense, the Niners offense went about things. But
Speaker 2: I was just saying in the last segment, Dejon Stribbling
Speaker 2: and Kaylon Black, if there's something to be genuinely excited
Speaker 2: about the forty nine Ers have added significant players there
Speaker 2: and who knows what they're going to contribute this year,
Speaker 2: but it's going to be big.
Speaker 1: Yay. What's up, Larry?
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's always a pleasure getting on and chatting
Speaker 3: up with you. And I'm so excited for Stribbling and Black.
Speaker 3: You know, today Black first practice back, you know, after
Speaker 3: dealing with the hip injury for a while. So it's
Speaker 3: good to see him. And he looked like he had
Speaker 3: a lot of juice in his legs. Stribbling, oh man,
Speaker 3: he looks great in preseason. He's building upon it whole business.
Speaker 3: I am so excited about Stribbling, you know what, both.
Speaker 1: Of those guys.
Speaker 3: The funny thing is the media said that the Niners
Speaker 3: reached and if they can prove themselves and showcase why
Speaker 3: the Niners really drafted him and have a great rookie season.
Speaker 3: They get the last last. So yeah, it's nice to
Speaker 3: see both of those youngsters play good. We know we
Speaker 3: have a lot of good you know, veteran stars on
Speaker 3: the team, McCaffrey and Debo and Kittle, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 1: We need some good young stars to be the next
Speaker 1: you know, Kittle and Debo and Warner etc.
Speaker 2: Like that.
Speaker 1: So good to see those guys playing good so far.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, how do you change your football team.
Speaker 2: You change your football team when you can add great players.
Speaker 2: I mean, would Seattle have won the Super Bowl last
Speaker 2: year without Nicky man Wori and without the Gray Zabel,
Speaker 2: you know, their starting guard. They got a great year
Speaker 2: at a Zabel at guard. They got an amazing year
Speaker 2: out of e Man Warrior who became this like kind
Speaker 2: of chess piece, you know, strong side linebacker with cornerback
Speaker 2: coverage ability and allowed them to play all kinds of
Speaker 2: funky defenses and rag I don't think Seattle wins last year, well,
Speaker 2: they definitely don't win as impressively as they did without
Speaker 2: those two guys. So having rookies that not just are
Speaker 2: on the team, but you know, can be like some
Speaker 2: of your better players. It can change the dynamic of
Speaker 2: your entire franchise.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, you need impact rookies.
Speaker 3: You can't just have you know, rookies that are going
Speaker 3: to develop up to maybe become a starter or a
Speaker 3: fringe starter. You need players that are going to become
Speaker 3: the next wave of your team, the next four players. Again,
Speaker 3: they have a lot of great players over the years,
Speaker 3: like Kittle and everything, but eventually they're not going to
Speaker 3: be on the roster and we need.
Speaker 1: That next wave. And you have to have good young.
Speaker 3: Players that can kind of take the team to the
Speaker 3: next level.
Speaker 1: And I think we have them.
Speaker 3: With those guys. We'll see, you know, this preseason. We'll
Speaker 3: see how it goes through the regular season. But so far,
Speaker 3: especially Stribbling, I mean black guys have played in the
Speaker 3: game yet we saw him look, you know, pretty good
Speaker 3: in training camp practice today. But Stribbling so far through everything,
Speaker 3: you know, the mini camp, the training camp, everything has
Speaker 3: looked so good.
Speaker 1: And if he continues in this trajectory, he might be
Speaker 1: the guy to take the Niners over the top, just
Speaker 1: like Ewan Moury. So we'll see.
Speaker 3: I'm excited. Stribling has done nothing but great things so far,
Speaker 3: and I can't wait for week two of preseason. So
Speaker 3: I want to see him build upon last week. I mean,
Speaker 3: I want him to play the whole game last week.
Speaker 2: Oh, I hear you, I hear you. I mean, you
Speaker 2: know when you watch stribling, the thought that quickly comes
Speaker 2: about is is this guy their best receiver? Is this
Speaker 2: guy better than Mike Evans at this point? And he
Speaker 2: might be, he might be. I mean, obviously Evans is
Speaker 2: going to the Hall of Fame, but as far as
Speaker 2: impact this year, we're gonna find out. You know, Evans
Speaker 2: is interesting, He's a he's a prolific receiver. He's had
Speaker 2: a little bit of a quad. He didn't finish practice
Speaker 2: today because of the quad. He didn't seem overly nervous
Speaker 2: about it. I kind of get the feeling that, you know,
Speaker 2: because Shanahan and Lynch know that there's some age on
Speaker 2: this roster that some of the guys who are you know,
Speaker 2: make up that age, Evans and Debo and some of
Speaker 2: the CMC bosa, they're not gonna push it with these guys.
Speaker 2: Maybe in past years they would have, but they're just
Speaker 2: not going to. I mean, Mike Evans, I don't think
Speaker 2: had to come out of practice today, but you know what,
Speaker 2: they want to make sure that he's one hundred percent
Speaker 2: for Australia. And you know, so they they they were
Speaker 2: they're using extra they're being extra cautious. But it's playing
Speaker 2: to a lot of the public like the Niners are
Speaker 2: walking wounded. But I don't know, because I kind of
Speaker 2: feel like there's a handful of those guys on this
Speaker 2: injury list that aren't necessarily really hurt. They're just dinged
Speaker 2: and they don't want to see a poll turn into
Speaker 2: a tear and so they're just really taking it real
Speaker 2: slow with some of their veteran players. I think it's
Speaker 2: the wiz. I think it's the wise move.
Speaker 3: Really yeah, I think it's a smart thing. It's like
Speaker 3: load management in the NBA. In the NFL, you can't
Speaker 3: really do that, but this is the way you get
Speaker 3: around it. You say, oh, yeah, he's got a soreness,
Speaker 3: he's got a pull, he got a strain or some
Speaker 3: minor injuries, and oh, Mike Evans didn't need to go
Speaker 3: to training camp practice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he needs a guy to get in shape and.
Speaker 3: You know, get his you know, rust off of him
Speaker 3: and stuff like that, which he's done, but he needs
Speaker 3: to make sure he's ready. He doesn't have any major
Speaker 3: injury going into week one. Same thing with Bosa and
Speaker 3: you know Christian McCaffrey, three of the best players in
Speaker 3: the league, and Mike Evans Hall of Fame type player.
Speaker 3: This man has been you know, routing up people and
Speaker 3: doing so many great things over the years. He doesn't
Speaker 3: need to go to training camp to hone in his craft.
Speaker 3: He just needs to make sure he's in shape. And
Speaker 3: I agree if they were to go out there and
Speaker 3: put him in this you know practice or play a
Speaker 3: preseason game and then he you know, tears a quad,
Speaker 3: then we're screwed. So yeah, absolutely, it's just like a
Speaker 3: load management situation. And I think it's wise because we
Speaker 3: need to have a fully healthy roster coming into Week one.
Speaker 3: That's a huge game right off the bat against a
Speaker 3: division rival all the way in Australia, so you have
Speaker 3: to start off on a good foot and I think
Speaker 3: it's smart that, hey, you know, he's out there, he's
Speaker 3: doing his thing.
Speaker 1: If he feels like he can't.
Speaker 3: Go ice up, get out of there, don't risk anything serious.
Speaker 1: I think it's okay.
Speaker 2: You know, Week one is already there's enough juice on
Speaker 2: the line. It's Shanahan against McVeigh, it's Purty against Stafford,
Speaker 2: It's the Niners against the Rams. It's two divisional opponents
Speaker 2: who don't like each other, their historic rivals. So there's
Speaker 2: a lot. There's a lot there. But to even add
Speaker 2: more to it, now, you've got the Rams and Niners
Speaker 2: with totally diametric opposite approaches to the travel, which is unprecedented, right,
Speaker 2: the travels unprecedent. We've never seen an NFL team travel
Speaker 2: seventeen hours away from their home stadium to play a game.
Speaker 2: And the Niners are gonna get in there nine days
Speaker 2: early and try to acclimate to you know, to Melbourne.
Speaker 2: And the Rams are going in there like their Navy seals,
Speaker 2: and they're just they're gonna pretend like none of it matters,
Speaker 2: and they're gonna roll in right before the game, play
Speaker 2: the game, and get on the burden come back. I mean,
Speaker 2: you know the way this is gonna go. Whoever wins
Speaker 2: the game is not just gonna win the game. They're
Speaker 2: also going to kind of have the we prepared the
Speaker 2: right way. They didn't because they're not preparing the same,
Speaker 2: which which preparation plan do you like? I mean, I know,
Speaker 2: we know that we're pro niners here, but it doesn't
Speaker 2: mean you have to be pro niners in every decision
Speaker 2: they make. Would you do you like their plan of
Speaker 2: let's get out there nine days early in acclimate or
Speaker 2: do you like the Rams plan where they're like, hey,
Speaker 2: we're gonna stay in our routine, we're gonna train, We're
Speaker 2: gonna train where we train, and they're the only change
Speaker 2: is gonna be when we get on that plane. It's
Speaker 2: gonna be a long flight to to to Melbourne, but
Speaker 2: that's gonna be the first time that their week changes,
Speaker 2: where the Niners week is gonna change before the week
Speaker 2: even starts, and they're gonna have a lot more, you know,
Speaker 2: a lot more. They're they're not doing their routine. They're
Speaker 2: gonna change up their routine. Well, the Rams are gonna
Speaker 2: try to do their routine and then still have this
Speaker 2: monumental travel Who do you think's got the better plan?
Speaker 1: I think the Niners do.
Speaker 3: I'm not even being biased, like I've traveled internationally.
Speaker 1: I'm going to the game. I can't imagine Boom going
Speaker 1: down one day getting into the game, Boom leaving.
Speaker 3: It's like, I mean, I've done an overnighter you know,
Speaker 3: to La or whatever, you know, watch the game and stuff.
Speaker 3: But to play a game, to do it overnight, sixteen
Speaker 3: hour flight and then come back to me, I just
Speaker 3: don't think you'd even be in like mentally in the zone.
Speaker 3: Like it's a that's a tough, tough flight and it
Speaker 3: takes a few days to kind of, you know, get
Speaker 3: your mind right, get your body right, you get the
Speaker 3: jet lags. They're just gonna go there, play come back.
Speaker 3: I don't know, man, I don't think that's a wise
Speaker 3: decision for the Rams. I think the Niners going there,
Speaker 3: you know, get themselves acquainted, get their bodies right, get
Speaker 3: their mind right, you know, and be in Australia and then.
Speaker 1: Go to the game. I feel like they're going to
Speaker 1: be in a better zone, you know, to play.
Speaker 3: This game mentally. But again, if the Niners lose the whole,
Speaker 3: you know, all the talk is gonna be ourc they
Speaker 3: should have just went in play like the Rams.
Speaker 1: Now they're ruining their.
Speaker 3: Routine for the rest of the season, so it's gonna
Speaker 3: be interesting. But I think the right way to do
Speaker 3: it is the Niners get your body right and get
Speaker 3: yourself prepared and you know, let your body acclimate to
Speaker 3: a new time zone. That's I've been to international places
Speaker 3: a lot.
Speaker 1: I've been all the way.
Speaker 3: Across the world, and I'll tell you a day after
Speaker 3: a travel like that, your body's cast out.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, I think it's gonna be tough
Speaker 1: on the RAMS.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's weird. It's like, I like the Niner plan
Speaker 2: better for winning week one, right, you know, acclimating as
Speaker 2: opposed to not acclimating. I mean, you know, I like
Speaker 2: the the plan to acclimate. I think that's probably the
Speaker 2: smarter plan than just like rolling in in the eleventh
Speaker 2: hour and you know, sixteen hour flight and then you're
Speaker 2: playing a game the next day. That seems like the
Speaker 2: RAMS are maybe maybe gonna be at a disadvantage. But
Speaker 2: I kind of like the RAMS plan going into week
Speaker 2: two because the RAM are they gonna have body clock adjustments.
Speaker 2: I don't know, They're gonna be kind of screwed up
Speaker 2: because they had this all this travel at once, But
Speaker 2: the Niners are gonna have to go there. The Niners
Speaker 2: are gonna have to get back on Pacific Standard time
Speaker 2: from a nine days down under don't you think. I
Speaker 2: like the Niners advand I think the Niners are doing
Speaker 2: the right thing as far as winning week one, but
Speaker 2: I think the Rams might be doing the smarter thing
Speaker 2: to win in week two. What do you think of that?
Speaker 1: No, that's a good take.
Speaker 3: But I mean, at the same time, Okay, so the Niners,
Speaker 3: they had their whole week. The nine days they get back,
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a long slide back. But you don't
Speaker 3: have a game on Saturday. You don't have a game
Speaker 3: on Sundays, so you kind of do have a few
Speaker 3: days to kind of get your body right, get your
Speaker 3: mind right, and then Monday comes new week. You know,
Speaker 3: probably do a small little light activity. I feel by
Speaker 3: the time Monday Tuesday rolls around, because then they don't
Speaker 3: really practice for the new week.
Speaker 1: Week two to Wednesday.
Speaker 3: I feel like those couple of days is gonna get
Speaker 3: your body back on course on the West Coast, you know.
Speaker 3: So I feel like it's not that bad of an
Speaker 3: idea for the Niners to do that. And I get
Speaker 3: it they're gonna have to readjust to the West Coast
Speaker 3: time Pacific standard.
Speaker 1: But the Rams, I mean, come on, You're going all
Speaker 1: the way to another country playing coming back, it's gonna.
Speaker 3: Be zapped out of energy, and if you lose, you're
Speaker 3: gonna be mentally just frustrated.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be upset that you should have probably prepared.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: So, I don't know, I get what you're saying.
Speaker 3: Where you know, it doesn't take the Rams too much
Speaker 3: out of a uh you know, time zone standard from
Speaker 3: the West Coast. But I feel like it is going
Speaker 3: to have enough time for the forty nine ers when
Speaker 3: they come back after Melbourne to kind of get their
Speaker 3: body adjusted.
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I mean, it's it's, you know, it's debatable,
Speaker 2: which is why we're we're having the debate because it's,
Speaker 2: you know, it's it's hard to we don't know, it's
Speaker 2: you know, these are it's it's a little bit guesswork, right,
Speaker 2: because it's it's unprecedented as far as this this kind
Speaker 2: of travel, and the rest of the league is watching
Speaker 2: because you know, if I mean, let's just say the
Speaker 2: Niners routed the Rams, what do you think is gonna
Speaker 2: happen next time the team plays and plays in Melbourne
Speaker 2: or plays in Sydney or something. They're gonna do what
Speaker 2: the Niners did. They're gonna go nine days early because
Speaker 2: they're like, man, the Niners went nine days early and
Speaker 2: they housed the Rams, you know, but if the Rams
Speaker 2: destroy them, maybe it'll be like, hey, you know what,
Speaker 2: don't go and do a big tourist thing like the
Speaker 2: Niners did, you know, stay on your schedule and treat
Speaker 2: it like a business trip. I don't know's it is
Speaker 2: going to be interesting to watch, that is for sure.
Speaker 2: Let's talk left guard for a second. The left guard
Speaker 2: position is wide open, so Trent Williams is your left tackle,
Speaker 2: Brendel's the center. Poony's going to be the right right guard.
Speaker 2: He was out today with the concussion. Colton mcivott's had
Speaker 2: a phenomenal year last year. If you look at some
Speaker 2: of the metrics, he's your starter at right tackle. There's
Speaker 2: gonna be a new starter at left guard. It was
Speaker 2: it was Burford at the end of the year, and
Speaker 2: they want a playoff Hame in Philly, So it's not
Speaker 2: like they were an embarrassment at the end of the year.
Speaker 2: But then they got destroyed by Seattle and Byron Murphy
Speaker 2: and Leonard Williams really killed them up front with power
Speaker 2: and strength. So what do you think I mean, who
Speaker 2: do you want. They've they've given Robert Jones some run,
Speaker 2: They've given Carver Willis some run. He ran with the Ones. Today,
Speaker 2: they've given Connor Colby some run. And now we're hearing
Speaker 2: John Feliciano is making rumblings that maybe he'd be willing
Speaker 2: to come out of retirement and play. And I don't
Speaker 2: know if that. I mean, how desperate are you? I mean,
Speaker 2: Feliciano hasn't played for two years, and he was pretty
Speaker 2: ordinary when he did play, and now he's gonna be
Speaker 2: you'd rather have If they go to Feliciano, that is
Speaker 2: not a good statement about Colby or Willis, that's for sure.
Speaker 2: Who should they play it? Left guard?
Speaker 1: Absolutely?
Speaker 2: What you playing on left guard?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: No, If they get Feliciano and he takes the left
Speaker 3: guard spot, they tells you everything me to know about
Speaker 3: this competition, which I don't really know who's gonna win
Speaker 3: this spot. I think if again, given the three options
Speaker 3: right now, that's the competition. I'm thinking Robert Jones. He
Speaker 3: is the veteran, you know, he's kind of been in
Speaker 3: this position. I'm not saying he's greater than them, but
Speaker 3: he's got more experienced carverar Willis. He's a rookie. You
Speaker 3: don't want to throw him into the fire. That is tough,
Speaker 3: Like he still needs to develop. I wouldn't really trust
Speaker 3: him just yet. Maybe he could be a good player
Speaker 3: down the line. He still needs some development. And then
Speaker 3: you know, Connor Colby, I feel like he kind of
Speaker 3: fell off the cliff. He had the chance that gave
Speaker 3: him the ring and he fell off a cliff and
Speaker 3: it's unfortunate for him. Maybe confidence wise it's not there.
Speaker 3: I want him to get better. It does take time
Speaker 3: in this system, you know, to become a fluent in
Speaker 3: it and get yourself right and get the scheme down.
Speaker 3: It's a tough offense, you know, for the lineman, for
Speaker 3: all the skilled players. We saw Kittle talking about Luke
Speaker 3: Ferrell how it took him some time, and I think
Speaker 3: the same goes with the lineman.
Speaker 1: So it is tough.
Speaker 3: I would say Robert Jones, but honestly, I'm not I'm
Speaker 3: not confident with any three of them.
Speaker 1: I wish they would have put a.
Speaker 3: Little bit more, a lot more, you know, stopping to
Speaker 3: this position and really hunkered down on the line when.
Speaker 1: It comes to the draft in the future.
Speaker 3: I definitely think they need to make sure that they
Speaker 3: prioritize the O line. You can't really trade for anybody.
Speaker 3: Nobody's going to give up a premium position like that.
Speaker 3: So hopefully Robert Jones can be the guy. That's who
Speaker 3: I'm taking right now. But maybe in the next couple
Speaker 3: of weeks, you know, something can shake up Kobe and
Speaker 3: Carver Willis and they can showcase themselves. But at the moment,
Speaker 3: done in my head going Robert Jones, Larry, you know.
Speaker 2: It's interesting, buddy. It's a big Niner fan. And I said, hey,
Speaker 2: what do you think of the Titans game. He's like, man,
Speaker 2: I don't watch preseason. It made me laugh, and I'm like,
Speaker 2: you don't watch preseason at all. He's like, no, man,
Speaker 2: I'm a week one guy. He's like, I listened to you.
Speaker 2: I listen to k and br I keep up with
Speaker 2: the Niners through I live vicariously through you, Krug and
Speaker 2: until we get to week one. And but you're you're
Speaker 2: more like me. You went to Camp a lot. I
Speaker 2: mean you you you were at camp as much as
Speaker 2: almost anybody that's not an accurred mediate person. You were
Speaker 2: at Camp a ton this year. Give me somebody that
Speaker 2: you you know, every camp there's always some surprises. Who's
Speaker 2: Who's the guy that you've been surprised by, either pleasantly
Speaker 2: or unpleasantly. It doesn't it doesn't have to be somebody
Speaker 2: who's great. Could be somebody who you thought was gonna
Speaker 2: be good, who's terrible? But give me somebody that that
Speaker 2: you've because you watched a lot of camp, a lot
Speaker 2: of hours. What uh? Who Who's whose performance this summer
Speaker 2: has surprised you? Good or bad?
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a I mean there's a lot of them.
Speaker 3: You know. Initially I wasn't too high on Curtis Rock,
Speaker 3: but as the days he kind of grew on, he
Speaker 3: started second days and then the preseason game camp, I
Speaker 3: was really impressed with Curtis Rock. He's kind of picked
Speaker 3: up this off Remember he red shirted last year. He
Speaker 3: really this is pretty much his rookie season, so I
Speaker 3: feel like he's kind of picked up the offense.
Speaker 1: Twelve. He looked good in camp.
Speaker 3: A lot of the receivers man that sixth receivers spot's
Speaker 3: gonna be tough.
Speaker 1: I saw Malie Turner, he had a great camp.
Speaker 3: Will Will Pauling, this guy was fantastic so many days
Speaker 3: in camp. Irwin, that wide receiver. I don't think he
Speaker 3: makes a fifty three roster, but that man made some
Speaker 3: nice plays throughout the training camp. Jack Jones, Yeah, Trion Irwin,
Speaker 3: Jack Jones, Man, this guy was a playmaker throughout training camp.
Speaker 1: So many times he had TVUS.
Speaker 3: I didn't really have any expectations for him, and he
Speaker 3: looked great. One guy that didn't look good and he's
Speaker 3: gonna really need to be.
Speaker 1: On the practice block.
Speaker 3: Enrique Cruz, the rookie lineman. I don't know if he's
Speaker 3: even meant for the NFL, but just some time to develop.
Speaker 3: He's gonna have to spend a lot of time in
Speaker 3: the practice squad. There's a clip going around him. Romelo
Speaker 3: Hide on a training camp rep just Blue ry Bile.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was not impressed. He's gonna beat a
Speaker 1: lot in training camp.
Speaker 3: But I've been so many guys you know that that
Speaker 3: really stood out. But there was a lot of guys
Speaker 3: they kind of they kind of need this preseason, so
Speaker 3: it's gonna be interesting to see. But yeah, the wide
Speaker 3: receivers again, Pauling and grind There's so many young wide
Speaker 3: receivers that I think could make this fifty three man
Speaker 3: roster because that sixth spot is up for grabs.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, I you know, Jack Jones is a good name.
Speaker 2: I mean, he has gotten his hands on so many
Speaker 2: footballs this summer. I mean, you know, he looked good
Speaker 2: the other day. I don't know if you were there
Speaker 2: when he was practicing doing punt returning. He looks like
Speaker 2: a really proficient punt returner. Like I would totally trust
Speaker 2: him back there if they had to go to him.
Speaker 2: So I don't think he's their first choice to be
Speaker 2: the punt returner, but he did it naturally. He's got
Speaker 2: his hands on a ton of footballs this summer, and
Speaker 2: he's just a big play guy. He's a little bit
Speaker 2: he trusts his instincts. He doesn't have the greatest size
Speaker 2: or speed, but he's one of those guys it shows
Speaker 2: up at the football and gets his hands on a
Speaker 2: lot of footballs and it's it's you know, he's been really,
Speaker 2: really good. I mean he's the kind of guy that
Speaker 2: could really make an impact because when Jack Jones plays well,
Speaker 2: he picks off passes. You know, he picks off passes,
Speaker 2: He changed his possession. He he's a difference maker that way.
Speaker 2: So he's he's been impressive to me. I'll tell you
Speaker 2: the guy that I was, I've been impressed with just
Speaker 2: in the last few days, this ogbo Ocuronquo. I mean,
Speaker 2: I know, he was a street free agent. He's been
Speaker 2: around the block, and he's you know, it's not like
Speaker 2: this is this is his first rodeo, but man, he
Speaker 2: looks good and I and I asked Casaric about him,
Speaker 2: and he's like, you know, the guy's got a great
Speaker 2: knack to understand the perfect leverage point. So even though
Speaker 2: he's two fifty, he still bull rushes three hundred and
Speaker 2: fifteen pound tackles into the lap of the quarterback because
Speaker 2: he understands the exact leverage point and where he needs
Speaker 2: to make content with them. He's a gen This guy's
Speaker 2: a genius rusher in some ways. You know. Obviously he's
Speaker 2: been around the block, but he's best in a wide
Speaker 2: nine and he had a proper couple of good years
Speaker 2: in Cleveland. Uh, we'll see if he makes it. I mean,
Speaker 2: it's you's still kind of undetermined, but so far in
Speaker 2: at least a one on ones, raj Okronquo is just
Speaker 2: putting on a clinic now. Granted, it's he's beating. He's
Speaker 2: beating you know, Isaac alar Khan and and he you know,
Speaker 2: he's beating guys that probably are not going to be
Speaker 2: in the league, but he's schooling them in a way
Speaker 2: that makes you think that, you know what, this guy's
Speaker 2: got something. The other guy is Jaden Dugger. I mean
Speaker 2: he's six' four six' five two forty and he looks
Speaker 2: like a very athletic linebacker who can do a lot
Speaker 2: of things in space and maybe rush. THE pastor I
Speaker 2: asked casarah about him the other day and, he's, like
Speaker 2: man the guy's got, some length he's got. Some bend,
Speaker 2: he's like let's see what. He's got, you know, YOU
Speaker 2: know I love Chris because chris is basically like. A
Speaker 2: man i don't know if this guy could rush the pastor,
Speaker 2: or not but he's got some traits and let's put
Speaker 2: him out there and see what. He's got so they're
Speaker 2: gonna give him a shot to rush the passer and
Speaker 2: if he can, do, it man that that will be
Speaker 2: a huge shot in.
Speaker 3: The, arm Absolutely the niners are great shaper for pass
Speaker 3: rushers Outside Of, nick bosa and we know he's, you. Know,
Speaker 3: trying yeah he looks like he could be that fifth.
Speaker 3: ROUND gem i Like what i've seen out. Of him
Speaker 3: that's a great. Pick there, you know we need Help.
Speaker 3: For bosa anybody that could come off the edge, and rush,
Speaker 3: you know and definitely someone that we need on. This
Speaker 3: team so good choice on. That one been very impressed,
Speaker 3: With him so AGAIN we'll i want to see what
Speaker 3: he can do on this second. PRESEASON game i feel
Speaker 3: like he flashed a lot in that first. Preseason game
Speaker 3: but he's looked really good. Training camp so, another guy
Speaker 3: probably not, a Surprise But Osa. Diggi, zua man this
