    I'm just being realistic. This organization has never achieved sustain success. We've sporadically had some good seasons and then got overall very poor return out of the career of an MVP QB.
  2. LinvilleGorge
    Ties go to the bottom, not the top.

    We're tied for 17th in playoff appearances since 2000, so middle of the pack. We're 18th in wins and have a sub-.500 winning percentage since 2000. Yes, we went to two Super Bowls.
  4. LinvilleGorge
    Yes. I would not pass on a QB we like due to Sam Darnold. I think the move was made because we didn't like our chances of a QB at 8 but if the board falls that way, draft him anyway.
  5. LinvilleGorge
    Not just for the sake of it. But of there's trade down value there I'd probably take it. I'm of the mindset of heavily hedging that bet on Darnold.
  6. LinvilleGorge
    This is where I'm at. Honestly, if it's not QB and the phone is ringing we should at least be listening.

    I remember people constantly talking about how young Funchess was too. At the end of the day, either you can play or you can't. I'm honestly not hanging my hat on Darnold's age. My hope with Darnold is basically Adam Gase simply being THAT atrocious.
  8. LinvilleGorge
    I'm fine with drafting a LT. If Darnold doesn't work out the next QB is still gonna need a LT. Let's not put anymore QBs behind the OLs we put in front of Cam.

    Hopeful I understand. Mocking condescendingly toward anyone who mentions that an organization with a history of poor decisions might be making poor decisions though... eh...

    I hope he's right. Be the one or be the one who gets us the one. If he's Clausen 2.0 that's fine too. That's better than Teddy purgatory.

    What in our franchise history has some of this fanbase based their cockiness on? I mean, what am I missing? Where does this confidence come from? Looking at our history from an outsider's point of view, it looks to me like we stumbled back assward into a handful of good years while largely sucking.

    That's about the mental agility displayed by the typical fan colored glasses homer.
  13. LinvilleGorge
    Says the king of his own echo chamber. We get it, man. You're the smartest person here. You never actually offer an opinion, but everyone else is always an idiot. It's easy to always be right when you never actually state an opinion other than generic homerism.

    I doubt that. We wouldn't have been both trading for #3 and trading for Watson. That was definitely an either or scenario. I kinda get the feeling that once it became more clear that the Jets were zeroed in on Wilson that we weren't willing to pay that price for whoever our #3 was, be it Fields, Lance, or Jones and honestly I'm not upset by that. The Niners paid a fortune.

    I just want Darnold to boom or bust and he has a much better chance to do that than Teddy did. Be the answer or get us in position to land Sam Howell, no half stepping please. Honestly, that's the feel of this roster. We have a bust reclamation project at QB and a veritable MASH unit of free agent acquisitions. This is either gonna really work or really NOT work.
  16. LinvilleGorge
    I really think it was the Niners trade that made us go That's when we realized we needed to start looking at plans F, G, and H on the list.
  17. LinvilleGorge
    Honestly, I'm not 100% sold that Zaven Collins shouldn't be considered the best LB prospect in this class. Dude gives me Urlacher vibes.
  18. LinvilleGorge
    Pete Carroll thought that about Aaron Curry when he drafted him #4 overall too. I think the group think on Curry that year was "safest player on the draft".
  19. LinvilleGorge
    Agreed. I think Parsons is a great prospect but not generational.
  20. LinvilleGorge
    If the over/under is Luke, I'm all in on under. It's hilarious to try to enshrine kids in the HOF before they ever don an NFL jersey.
  21. LinvilleGorge
    Based on our free agent acquisitions I fear we may be shopping on the wrong side of this aisle.
  22. LinvilleGorge
    Probably positional value. Unless it's a generational talent in a weak draft, an off ball LB just doesn't warrant a top 10 pick in today's NFL.
  23. LinvilleGorge
    Agreed. If Fields is there, take him. If we aren't going QB and the phone is ringing, at least listen. I'm a huge UNC fan but Brown scares me. Dude's hands are VERY hit or miss and while he's fast he's not Ginn fast. The hands are comparable though. The more wide open he is the more likely the drop.
  24. LinvilleGorge
    The Reddick signing was great. The rest suspect at best
  25. LinvilleGorge
    The Bouye move is going to depend on contract. We're going into next season relying on a lot of players with significant injury histories. That usually ends up predictably. Bouye is coming off of both an injury and a down season while he was on the juice. That's a big red flag. I hope the deal is cheap. Worthwhile gamble if it is.
