How much of that "potential" money is OBJ, going to get? I'll be happy to say goodbye to him. Other than maybe a mentor, they could have done w/o him imo.

I really don’t get it with him, he took that slant to the house on the Browns and I was like, damn, we have a serious weapon. Rams game too, then he went away forever

Don’t worry guys, Lamar will be helping to build the car this off season. Not sure what the fuck was happening last off season but he wasn’t helping build the car
I guess we expected Todd Monken whom was coming from the college ranks to just set off on fire with Lamar and this offense in his first year as the offensive coordinator. Alot of us probably don't even feel comfortable with what we doing on a new job until a few months go by and sometimes it takes year to go by for us to feel comfortable.

Call me crazy, but I have full confidence that Lamar and Monken will fine tune this offense to maximize Lamar's strengths even more. Just gonna the offseason to pull it off.

Well he was with the browns before Georgia, but to your point, our offense was leaps and bounds better than with Roman. We beat almost every top tier team we faced, and our offense scored a lot of points in most of those games. fShould get better as Monken and Lamar move forward.
with how he talked about the offseason, stanley's most definitely in their plans for next year although it did seem like they're not going to want to rely on him in the future (the references to him being an older guy)
got similar feelings
think the fact that they played it so close to the vest with madubuike suggests that there's going to be a concerted effort to keep him around
RB and OT definitely the 2 major positions they inferred we'll need to do some work at
but in terms of needs and targets, we're never going to get any significant real info from any of these pressers in that sense
i didnt get that sense at all lol
we're going to have to add WRs out of necessity regardless anyway... we've literally only got 3 under contract for 2024 lol
it sucks we cant just get rid of Stanley this year, but even if it worked cap wise we have so many holes to replace it isn't realistic
2023 was best case for him, no major injuries, only missed like what half of the snaps this season, and played great once every 3 games, re injuries his leg and the other two being mehhhh (better than awful)
if we weren't losing our entire defense I would be calling for his head. I like the guy and hes cool but im not going to act like he isn't finished. your left tackle should not be alternating playing every drive

yea last time I read into these pressers we were set at safety and would not draft an undersized center lolll

In my experience it don’t matter where he’s from his mf hands don’t always come off the bus with him lol. Some days his hands still back in Nigeria.

I agree it was just funny the way Harbaugh said it. I definitely agree year 2 should be better and you’ll add stuff to the offense in the off season, however, I assumed Lamar was there helping this off season and Harbaugh implied he wasn’t

I can only recall 1 bad drop all year. No?
Unfortunately there isn’t any choice without making the defense drastically worse because of the pending free agents.
That seems to be true for quite a few positions. Probably just adding some depth though.

He had more. Just one that really stood out due to the timing, he dropped a easy first down on the opening 3rd down against the chiefs, got us off on the wrong foot for sure. He had a good year, but he’s a guy I’m iffy on expecting good contributions year after year

OT and RB needs to be a priority this offseason. Ideally we can draft a LT of the future, while letting Stanley play this year.
I'm hoping we tackle our running back woes via free agency. Saquon, Jacobs, Henry, Pollard, Zack Moss... there's potentially a lot of big name free agents at the running back position, which should drive the price down. Combo that with the general view of this being a weak RB draft class. I would be thrilled if we somehow land Saquon or Jacobs. Not too keen on Henry
i mean tbf he did have some fairly major injuries in the 2023 season - had 2 roll-up injuries that if he'd been unlucky could have been season enders
and we can get rid of him - we'd get 8m cap space straight up for cutting him but would take on nearly 18m worth of dead money - it's hard to replace him with only 8m of space but it's something they could look at for sure - it might be a case of keeping him on the roster and then if we end up drafting someone high potentially releasing him in May
and dont forget 2021 where we loved our WR room (and then drafted 2 guys)
