first thing I thought of too when I saw the confirmed injury
so jaylon has a similar injury to what bow had: torn MCL, ACL
you can pencil him in as a niner.

Write this name down: Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota St. This player has tremendous upside, will get draft interest, will be at @SeniorBowl.
NDSU still has a game left on this upcoming saturday, so we might get a chance to see carson play.[h1]Zierlein: North Dakota State QB Wentz deserves first-round grade[/h1]
Taking a first-round chance on a player from an FCS school isn't easy, but don't be surprised if an NFL club finds North Dakota State's Carson Wentz worth the gamble.
"He checks a lot of boxes. He plays in a pro-style passing attack that allows him to read the entire field," Zierlein said. "He has great size, a good enough arm, and is very courageous in the pocket. He has fantastic touch and accuracy down the field. You have to project him a little because he's an FCS guy, and there are still signs that he has work to do with his decision-making.NFL Media analyst Lance Zierlein has placed a first-round draft grade on the North Dakota State quarterback, who could be the most intriguing pick of the 2016 NFL Draft. Zierlein has studied film of each Wentz throw from the 2014 and '15 seasons.
"He probably needs to sit and learn for a year or two. I think if you take a guy inside the top six (or) eight picks, you're pressured to play him right away. Later in the (first round), those are better teams making those picks that don't have that kind of pressure."
Wentz has caught the eye of NFL Media draft expert Mike Mayock, as well.
The positives: Size (6-foot-6, 235 pounds), velocity, and a lightning-quick release.
The negatives: Wentz broke his right wrist, on his throwing arm, and underwent season-ending surgery that cut his senior season roughly in half. And of course, there's that pesky question about the competition he's faced at the FCS level. An NFC scout told College Football 24/7 earlier this month that picking a quarterback from a smaller school like Wentz's can be scary business.
Wentz will try to answer questions about both his injury recovery and his ability to compete at a higher level next month at the Reese's Senior Bowl. The annual all-star game draws some of the most talented seniors and fourth-year juniors in college football for a week of practice, personal interviews and a North-South all-star game under the watchful eye of NFL coaches, scouts and personnel executives.
If he performs well, his place among the 2016 draft's quarterbacks could rise significantly.
kind of relieved. did not want to give up those picks.
I will be the first to eat crow. I did not like this pick at all, but the guy has flashed many times this season. He's had his moments where he has looked unblockable. That's all you ask for in a raw player who has crazy upside.

Arik Armstead was tops in our Pass Rush Efficiency stat for 3-4 DE with 200+ pass rushes. Armstead had 38 pressures in 250 pass rush snaps.
However, we needed a OC like Hue Jackson for this all to work.
if were going goff, i want hue. str8 up
its time to step into the 21st century NFL
I've always been a huge proponent of Hue Jackson. The guy is a offense mastermind. He had that bootsy *** Raider team, who was led by Jason Campbell aka the black Alex Smith ,on the verge of the playoffs, and now, he's got the red rifle unloading on the league.
save us, hue

K Corey Acosta & OLB Marcus Rush also have signed reserve/future deals with #49ers. Those deals go into effect w/ start of new league year.

#49ers signed psquadders Kaleb Ramsey, Garrison Smith & DiAndre Campbell to reserve/future contracts. No word on QB McLeod Bethel-Thompson.
I'd like to hope he'd return after a month lol.
