It's not Thielen's fault that our other receivers sucked.

Thielen wouldn’t have even started on the last 2 teams Canales was at.  And would’ve been the number 3 option like he was at the end in Minnesota

I don't disagree. The only other decent receiver we had on the roster was Chark and he's just a terrible pairing with Bryce. You don't want a deep threat specialist to pair with one of the weakest arms in the NFL. Square peg, round hole.

Thats a bit too much of a pipe dream for me though, just trying to connect dots.

Aiyuk is one of the best pure receivers in the league. Doubt SF looks to move him. He’s an integral part of their team vying for a SB.

Doubt Metcalf is going anywhere as well.

 

I'd bet good money that Aiyuk isn't on the 49ers next year

No, they don't/won't want to move him, but they just can't afford to re-sign him, they have too many huge contracts that they won't be able to afford a second big WR contract.

He's widely been discussed as a trade target for WR needy teams this offseason because of that.

So unless they decide they don't need both CMC and Deebo and want to trade Deebo instead (as I do think there is some overlap there between them and maybe Aiyuk/CMC is a better combo for varying skill set), I 100% believe Aiyuk will be traded before next season.

I'd like us to get Higgins. Bring back Chark if he's cheap enough. I'd also be open to bringing back Damiere Byrd to see if he still has juice. He didn't get to play last year due to injury and I think his speed was a really underrated loss for us.  Higgins, Mingo, Theilen, Chark, Byrd, and some decent FA TE, wouldn't be bad heading into the draft.

I just about had it sifting through scraps from other teams. Go get at least two guys in the draft and throw them out there. There's enough stories of mid/late round WR success stories and we're still going to struggle as a team regardless next season, so might as well let them acclimate with plenty of playing time.

I suspect this room is going to look completely different next fall.  By Any mean necessary.

The is arguably the worst in the league.

Additionally. Our New HC has been credited for turning around 2 QBs who just so happened to step in to situations that had top 5 in the NFL WR duos.

He "stepped in to" that situation in Seattle?  Who was the WR coach from 2010-2017 followed by their passing game coordinator?  Who do you think created that WR room in Seattle?  

Then you have Evans (getting some age on him) and Godwin coming off an injury.  He had their offense scoring 11% more with Baker than it was with Brady.  Over a decade under Carroll, Dungy as a mentor, and helping two of the biggest QB turnarounds we have seen in a minute is a decent resume.  Let's just see what he can do.

Sign Evans and Higgins.  Keep Thielen and Mingo. Draft a rookie or two. 

Lmao I’m sorry but signing both Higgens and Evan’s is laughable. Do we have infinite cap space now? Are we going to let every player we need to resign hit free agency? Respectfully this is not madden.

      Albert Breer: Panthers turned down trade down offers from 49ers and Rams

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I was 100% ready for us to not take T-Mac the last few weeks as all the smoke was that we were going defense, just as I was probably expecting to see us trade back than use the pick as well. But if we traded back and the team that took our pick then used to to take T-Mac, I'd have been legitimately devastated, I'd rather have seen us just pass on him than do that, it would have hurt.

      Both of those teams are well run but not infallible. I get it. Some people like the pick and some people don't. That seems to surprise you and my take is hardly incendiary or reactionary. The future picks was about going to the end of the round, where I wish we moved...like I stated about where I saw good value in this draft. I would have taken most trades at a discounted value in this draft. I hope the details leak. I would like to know what they passed on.

      Should I buy the huddle?!?

      For the love of all that is good SOMEBODY needs to take care of this place. I haven't been able to get in my account for like 6 months because I forgot my password. Password recovery email never comes through. Hell, I even tried creating a whole new account multiple times and the new account verification email never gets sent. The security question for creating a new account is still "Carolina Panthers head coach _____ Rhule". There are many reasons why this place is dying, one of them should not be that people can't do basic things like create an account or reset a forgotten password. I finally got on my computer browser here to try a bunch of different passwords and got in, and let me tell you this site is absolute cancer. Completely froze or crashed my browser multiple times. This will probably be the last time I log in on anything other than my phone. What a mess. A sports forum shouldn't be worse for your computer than an early 2000's nudey site.
