Great post! Learn the lessons, get better, and come back next season.

Here's to a great season of learning. On to the off season! This team will be back in the playoffs (baring injury), and new they have learned a painful lesson they don't want to repeat!

While this lose is a bitter lose it's not the worse in our short history.  WE played great well on Def and glimpses of what I had hoped Cam would do all game in the first half, our Off was average.    We do like you mentioned have a lot of young players around us and we did not get to where we were this year and where we will be by chance.  Our coaches know how to coach, where we don't have to spend a ton of money on FA talent.  Let GMan get at this draft once again to make it feel like Christmas Morning come draft day 1 and 2.........remember we had a lot of OL out this year from injury that should be back next year....KEEP POUNDING!

I have to disagree and the reason im still skeptical about next year is because we WERE in the same position 5 years ago and back then that team looked like they were built for several seasons of success. Smith was in his prime, we had two world class runningbacks, one a rookie and the other in his 3rd year, a dominating OLine all in the elite stages of their career. (Otah was a tank) on defense peppers was dominating and in his 20s and as far as we all knew, he was happy to be in carolina at this point. Chris gamble and ken lucas were a great cornerback tandem, we had an enforcer at safety in chris harris, and we had two great linebackers in beason (2nd year) and thomas davis (4th year) Point im trying to make is that 5 years ago the future looked very bright and ended up horribly, were in the same position today, lets see if we can make it different this time

Well said. We're gonna be back and with 2-3 more pieces put into the puzzle. For the first time in a while I'm looking forward to next season. Keep Pounding.

 

Oh, and SF isn't going anywhere. Next time we play them, maybe in the playoffs next year, there's a couple of them that need to have a BIG target on their back. Athough I'd be happy if they get their legs broken next week.

We're just beginning.  Cam has had no true compliment on offense and we better be getting that this offseason.  

 

Getting closer.  That 49ers team was one we could and should beat but didn't.  Same with the Seahawks.  We can hang with everyone in the league.  They better fuggin learn from this sh*tty loss.

I was here after the AZ loss in Jan 2009. I had no problem accepting that loss, because we got beat down like we stole money from them.

 

Fast forward to today it was very frustrating. It was a winnable game. We let the 9ers get into our heads. Our D lost focus. Our offense couldn't get in from the 1 yard line twice.

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case.

      And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo.

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
