i mean i agree with him about kittle lol

id have the exact same top 3 right now in that order - but i think he's got his tier wrong with mark but otherwise no issues lol:
Kittle
Kelce
Andrews
I wonder how long Kelce can stay in the top 2 though. He is 32 and yes TE's can play longer but he's played at a high level for a very long time. I think he will still be very good but we will start to see a drop off if we haven't already, to some extent.

Hard to believe that Mark Andrews is still only 25. What a great draft pick.

Imagine if we took Calvin instead of Hurst

yes, but he's not even playing now. Wish him well and hope he comes back next season.

Now, Wonder what would have happened if we took Derwin James at 16 and still managed to move into the 1st and get Lamar.

I understand. I just refuse to agree with a Niners fan lol. Kittle is a straight up beast. I just wish he was anywhere else

Whoa, whoa... careful with what you say... I'm sure you wouldn't want him in the AFC North either my man

lol, I think JAAM lives in the SF area. Keep him in the NFC except for Washington and I'm cool. I hate it when Little Danny Snyder has anything nice and shiny to his disposal.

I’m about an hour and a half away from SF. Still way too close!

I hope he is a Raven for life like Heap. Andrews doesn’t get the credit he deserves nationally. Probably from being a small market team, dwarfed by Lamar’s star status, and more of a run heavy offense. If he was in a high volume offense like Kelce , I have no doubt he matches or exceeds the numbers Kelce is putting up.

I was checking out Overthecap and it looks as though Boyle will be on the team next year. We save absolutely nothing by cutting him and in fact would have 7m in dead cap. I do see him getting cut after next season due to it saving 6m in cap space, while leaving 2m in dead cap.

Holy shit. Hell yea
It seems as though Zrebiec has been reading Purple Flock. lol. Last week someone was saying we needed to get better on the offensive line and included this offseason signing as one of them.

I know I do this a lot but I wanna keep shouting out Brandon Stephens. Like how is he doing what he's doing?

The guy has only been playing defense for 2 years and that was at CB. Trained at SMU, not really a football powerhouse and then comes in and is starting in Winks defense at S, a position he's literally never played.

I'm not saying he's amazing, he certainly has made his fair share of mistakes, but we've seen much worse S play on this team by real safeties.

I think to be playing this well as a rookie in a new position and relatively new to this side of the ball, he's got a really bright future.

I said it, and I stand by it.
The statistics are a number but they have a context, being Villanueva, Phillips, Powers, why are they going to attack the Zeitler side?
football is a team game, the line is a team game, the worst line, the one with the most catches.
yanda allowed captures but to run there was always a highway, even with ducasse.
You can defend what you want, I will defend mine, but do not try to underestimate my opinion for a few numbers, we may not agree, and we can discuss it, but you are just like me, a user in a forum
