Agree with that, Ward and Robinson stand out to me when i watch our DB's. Robinson always seems to be in the play. Ward has more of the physicality and Robinson has the speed. I liked Johnson his first year, he seems to be off and on. We need a playmaker at safety, maybe Tartt can get some run. We need some LB's and some D linemen that can push the pocket. The one guy who stands out is Blair. It seems like he makes things happen when he's out there.

A bunch of idiots over thinking things again
Low key Kaep is the best player on this team and we're losing him for nothing
I still think his options are limited so he might have to come back

I retract what I said about Jimmy Ward, he's the best cornerback on the team. Him and Robinson should be our starters moving forward.
Yea we fumbled on the Kaep situation, dude could end up in Arizona or even with the NY Jets. Dude is balling out.
But we really need to improve the LB corps this offseason.

I don't wanna lose Kaep bruh 
He's just about the only bright spot about this season on and off the field.

He's hands down the best player on our team right now...
this game coming up making me nervous, we could actually win this one.

We haven't lost anyone yet.
And while Kaep is playing well, him leaving this franchise wouldn't condemn us to hell or anything.
Also, i don't know how many owners are gonna want to deal with the social commentary stuff. We have shown we support his right to take a stand, i`m sure that means something to him
For what it's worth
I`m back on board with year 2 for Chip.
Team is still fighting, and offensively we have improved significantly.
I think this off-season we need to re-stock this team through draft and FA then really judge Chip on the 2017 performance
Very true, but not really an amazing feat.
I don't think we have anyone outside of the o-line who is more than a C+ player
Let's have some fun, 10 point plan to turn this team around this off-season.
1. Fire Baalke & promote Tom Gamble, keep Chip. Tom & Chip have an understanding together.
2. Extend Colin Kaepernick, but only at a good price. Do not go into the high teens, keep it around 14-16m
3. Draft a QB in the 2nd or 3rd round, let it be known that this isn't a gift job, and that developing a young QB will be a goal of the coaching staff.
4. With the first draft pick, take a true WR threat. Something we haven't had in years, and something this offense needs badly.
5. In FA address the defense aggressively. Sign a pass rush threat, ;sign a MLB to play alongside Bowman and sign a run stuffer on the line.
6. Let Eric Reid & Bathea walk, insert Tartt into his spot and find a young guy in the draft.
7. Fire Jim O`neil, go out and get one of the best Defensive Backs coaches from another team to coach the defense
8. Draft 3 WR's in the first 5 rounds
9. Explore competition at RB, whether that means bringing in a guy in FA or through the draft.
10. Have Chip integrate a FB into the offense and simplify the run game

What's crazy about this season as it has been made aware to me......
In the NFC West, we are the highest scoring team or scored the most combined point......
But when when looking at them points allowed by the defense
That lets me know if our defense was back to its prime eliteness we could easily be a 8-2 or 7-3 team and fighting for a high playoff spot.
And that with our poor offense with Kaep clearly by far being the best player on the team

The 49ers set a new record for futility on Sunday in Miami, losing their 10th consecutive game. At 1-10 it’s time to start thinking about the upcoming offseason and 2017.
There are many questions that still need to be answered:
Jim O’Neill has dialed up an assortment of exotic blitzes throughout the season because the 49ers can’t produce a consistent pass rush from their front four. O’Neill’s blitz packages have been very effective at times, but the lack of a dynamic pass rusher is glaring. Aaron Lynch has had weight and injury issues. Tank Carradine is more ideally suited to play end in a 4-3 front. Eli Harold is a raw, undisciplined player with poor instincts and Ahmad Brooks has already played his best football. I’d sign both Chandler Jones and Melvin Ingram to bolster the unit. Jones will consistently command double teams and Ingram is very versatile and athletic.
Once NaVorro Bowman went down, the 49ers’ run defense evaporated. They allow 180-yards rushing per game, worst in the NFL. Their inability to stop the run has been a consistent theme. I’d sign inside linebacker Lawrence TImmons and pair him inside with Bowman in 2017. Timmons is big, fast, physical and productive and would immediately improve the run defense.
Ken Blaze/USATSI
Every defense needs a tone setter at safety. The Seahawks’ defense is intimidating and it’s led by two physical safeties in Kam Chancellor and Earl Thomas. The Walsh/Seifert 49ers had Ronnie Lott, Jeff Fuller, and Chet Brooks. The Harbaugh 49ers had Dashon Goldson and Donte Whitner. DJ Swearinger is a physical, tone-setting safety that opposing receivers fear, respect and keep account of. Adding Swearinger would give a young, deep, and talented secondary the necessary swagger and confidence they currently lack.
The April draft is an important one for the 49ers. Here is what I would do:
Round 1 – Myles Garrett-OLB/Texas A&M
Round 2 – Raekwon McMillan-ILB/Ohio State
Round 3 – Luke Falk-QB/Washington State
Round 4 – TRADE PICK to Buffalo for NG-Marcel Dareus
Round 5 – Ejuan Price – OLB/Pittsburgh
Round 6 – Brian Hill – RB/Wyoming
Round 6 – (from Denver for Vernon Davis) DeMore’ea Stringfellow-WR/Ole Miss
Round 7 – Deatrich Wise – OLB/Arkansas
Round 7 – (from Cleveland for Andy Lee) Gerald Everett – TE/South Alabama
UFA – Gabe Marks – WR/Washington State
Garrett is a cornerstone player for their front seven. McMillan would emerge as a force in the middle at ILB. Falk needs time to grow and adjust to a pro-style offense, but his poise, arm and accuracy are all impressive. Buffalo once gave up on All-Pro running back Marshawn Lynch due to injury and off-the-field issues when they traded him to Seattle and they may repeat history with Dareus. Dareus is a risky addition with two NFL disciplinary strikes on his resume, but his talent is worth gambling on. He could emerge as a major force against both the run and the pass. Price is a terrific rusher who lacks height. Hill is a big, physical running back. Stringfellow is an underrated wideout with size and body control. Wise is a long, athletic SEC rusher. Everett would compete for a roster spot at tight end and Marks is an underrated receiver with good production, sneaky speed and has familiarity with Falk.
I would jettison or let depart in free agency a group of twelve players that includes:
QB – Colin Kaepernick, Christian Ponder, Luke Falk
RB – Carlos Hyde, DuJuan Harris, Mike Davis, Brian Hill, Shaun Draughn
WR – Alshon Jeffrey, Torrey Smith, Jeremy Kerley, Aaron Burbridge, Rod Streater, Eric Rogers, DeAndre Smelter, Bruce Ellington, DeMore’ea Stringfellow, Gabe Marks
TE – Vance McDonald, Garrett Celek, Blake Bell, Gerald Everett
OL – Joe Staley, Zane Beadles, Daniel Kilgore, Joshua Garnett, Trent Brown, John Theus, Andrew Tiller, Marcus Martin, Alex Balducci, Fahn Cooper, Collin Kelly
PK – Phil Dawson
P – Bradley Pinion
LS – Kyle Nelson
KR/PR – JaCorey Shepherd
DL – DeForest Buckner, Marcel Dareus, Glenn Dorsey, Quinton Dial, Mike Purcell, Ronald Blair, Arik Armstead
OLB – Myles Garrett, Aaron Lynch, Chandler Jones, Melvin Ingram,Eli Harold, Deatrich Wise, Ejuan Price
ILB – NaVorro Bowman, Lawrnce TImmons, Raekwon McMillan, Gerald Hodges, Ray Ray Armstrong
S – Eric Reid, DJ Swearinger, Jacquiski Tartt, Marcus Cromartie, Dontae johnson
CB – Jimmie Ward, Rashard Robinson, Trumaine Brock, Will Redmond, Keith Reaser, Chris Davis, Price Charles Iworah, JaCorey Shepherd
As you can see, one productive offseason could improve the 49ers future outlook dramatically.
Krueger’s 49ers offseason plans: Keep Kap, draft defense
There are many questions that still need to be answered:
- How will Jed York respond to such a dismal campaign?
- Will Trent Baalke return for another season?
- Is Chip Kelly going to return to Oregon and leave the 49ers looking for yet another Head Coach?
- Will Colin Kaepernick return or opt out of his 2017 contract and bolt in free agency?
- Will free agents willingly sign to play for Kelly or will the 49ers need to overpay to attract them?
- Wide receiver Alshon Jeffery
- Outside linebackers Melvin Ingram
- Outside linebacker Chandler Jones
- Inside linebacker Lawrence Timmons
- Free safety DJ Swearinger
