Bears rookie RT Darnell Wright accidentally trained for their WR conditioning test somehow and lost 16lbs lol.

Of course they are spinning it positively, but it’s not a given that weight loss is always positive on the OL.

Okay, that's funny 😄

Poor kid was a product of the media hyping him up, same for Wilson and Jones. 

I was the tank engineer and my wish was always Lawrence with a Fields at worst. It still boggles my mind that Lawrence and Fields went almost wire to wire 1 and 2 for 3 years and somehow in a couple dazzling practice throws that two guys, and almost Jones, jumped between them. Not sure what the future lies for both of them but it certainly was not surprising to see what happened.

Then factor in the fact that the Niners traded two additional first round picks and a third to swap #12 for #3 to draft him.  It's not like they didn't know he was going to take some time to develop, in the best case scenario.

We'll see.  Lance is working with a pretty good offensive staff and environment to develop.  They might like to see some progress from him. 

If we had drafted him and he was struggling after surviving Moe, Larry, and Curley trying to develop him, things would be a bit less ominous.  But, if it doesn't take here shortly, he doesn't have a lot of excuses.

We haven't even seen the kid play yet. Im not writing off Lance until he gets some meaningful playing time. Injuries seem to be his biggest concern as of now.

Hi career stats though a small sample size are not horrible. Maybe a lower completion percentage than youd like to see but I agree he does need more time before the jury is out on him. I could see a team taking a chance and offering San Fran something for him like a third or fourth just to see if they would bite on it. If I had a good aging starter that needs someone to eventually take over I would consider throwing a fourth offer to them to see if I could keep developing him and eventually have him ready. He is definitely worth another shot with another team but I dont think he gets it with the 49ers
