I hate to bring this turd up again, but a lot of people believe anthony davis will file for reinstatement shortly before training camp to avoid having to reimburse the niners his 2016 share of his signing bonus. i wonder what, if anything, we could get this for this dude? he's only 26 and is under a team-friendly deal until 2019. he has to be worth something to someone.

You can't progress and learn if you're not willing to be wrong. Glad to see Chip opening up to others and pick each others' brains.

What a scumbag man. Think the most we getting is a draft pick. Maybe a 5th since teams know he's not gonna want to play for us

smh

on a side note, jeff driskel continues to impress. how crazy would it be if he beat out everyone. 

 hell, winning the #2 job would be shocking.

[h1]  Receiving praise, 49ers' rookie QB Driskel could be special[/h1]
SANTA CLARA -– Rookie quarterback Jeff Driskel took advantage of third-team practice snaps during the offseason program and gave the 49ers a bonus, as well.

Not only did Driskel impress the coaching staff at his natural position after arriving in the offseason program as a sixth-round draft pick, he also showed a willingness to help out on special teams.

“I think he’s done a really nice job,” 49ers coach Chip Kelly said. “He’s really intelligent. (He) picked things up conceptually very quickly. (He) was exposed to a couple of systems because he was at Florida and then Louisiana Tech.

“I think he’s already been exposed to multiple systems at the college level, so we’ve been impressed with him. He’s very athletic. I think he was the fastest quarterback at the combine. He’s big. He’s got a good arm.”

Driskel’s size (6 foot 4, 234 pounds) and speed (4.56 seconds in the 40-yard dash) made him a candidate to get practice as a personal protector on the 49ers’ punt team. Special teams coordinator Swinton said it’s possible the 49ers could run their standard offensive plays out of punt formation with Driskel on the field, lined up in front of punter Bradley Pinion.

“He’s a guy that’s athletic,” Swinton said. “He’s a guy that when he was at Florida, you saw him run all over. It comes down to a 53-man roster and if you do carry a guy like that, you just look at numbers.

“For me, I’m playing the numbers game. I try to squeeze every little bit out of it. You have a guy like Thad Lewis, when I had him as a rookie, Thad will tell you he covered every kick for us on the practice squad. So if you have a quarterback that can do that, it pays dividends for us.”

Kelly said the thought of Driskel seeing some action on special teams was a topic that was discussed even before the 49ers drafted him.

“He’s just a football player,” Kelly said. “He just wants to play football and whatever he can do to make a team, he’s going to try to do it.”

While Driskel showed plenty of promise at quarterback, he does not figure to put himself in a position to compete for the starting job against Blaine Gabbert and Colin Kaepernick.

Driskel, the team’s fourth quarterback, got third-team repetitions throughout the offseason program because of Kaepernick’s inactivity due to his rehab from shoulder, thumb and knee surgeries. Kaepernick was cleared for 7-on-7 work during the 49ers’ recently concluded minicamp, but Driskel still received approximately a dozen snaps each day with the third-team offense in 11-on-11 drills.

“He’s really smart,” Kelly said of Driskel. “(He has) very, very good football IQ. He processes it really well.”

I remember Driskel was the next best thing coming out of HS

Kap to Harb will be our current Driskel to Chip?

 

[CrownRoyalDaddy]

Man whoever gets that start every week is who im rooting for. Thad Lewis could be the starter if he can win

Not so sure a QB should be wearing a black tinted visor, but it does look dope

On some real ****, considering kap has a tendency to stare down receivers maybe it is a good strategy to wear a tinted visor so secondaries cant watch his eyes

Hope he wears this during the season

 

[DonRafa]

Won't matter unless he learns to turn his head

That's actually a good idea lmao. It would help, but it wouldn't resolve everything. He needs to learn to drop back and keep his head stationary. You're supposed to keep your head still as you drop back, but Kap has a tendency of locking on from the second he takes the snap. He gives DBs a head start on the ball from the moment the ball is snapped.

Literally from the second the ball is snapped, you know where Kap is throwing to.

lol

 

[red81]

the season for flopping and patty-cake fouls has ceased. give way to the men. 

49 days until HOF game.

79 days until kickoff.

 

[orsrt8]

dang 39 days until the HOF game..... Football season is basically here!

 

[moe200069]

yall, I finally watched Concussion last friday. I avoided it for the sheer reason that I knew it would make me reconsider conscientiously watching football without care for another human being. damn, movie makes me respect the hell out of football players that much more. I mean the man posted above came back from a stupidly absurd knee injury and made it back to the pro-bowl? Lead his team on the field and likely in the locker room. these cats might be the closest thing to being physically super human

movie had me all sorts of conflicted. that being said, imma still watch every 49ers' games and root for them to destroy the **** out of wilson, goff, and palmer.. got me feeling like a terrible person.
