Didn't seem to match what Staley had in mind either . . . . . . . . . . Right behind Derwin I think Murray has a chance to shine the most under Harbaugh (as long as we keep him of course). Effort and athleticism have never been his issue - I bet Harbaugh / Minter break through . . . . . . . . .

I thought Kendricks was a better run defender than Murray. Need to replace both. Give Henley a shot.

We're gonna be very inexperienced at ILB if we let Murray walk . . . . . . . . . unless FA of course. If we lose both ILB starters from last year, along with the current state of the IDL . . . . . . . .yikes - LOTS of holes to plug in the middle of the defense. We're hoping our buried backups and PS guys all become all-pros - I assume? That would be nice . . . . . . . . . . .

Maybe we can sign one. We can draft Colson, he knows the defense already.
Henley is a 2nd year guy and Neimans been around. He isn't a bad player he just isn't fancy. Neiman is one of those football player types.

Maybe if we make a trade with Chicago we can have them throw in LB TJ Edwards. Another football player type and he gets a lot of tackles.
155 tackles last year, 159 the season before. Has 2 years left on his deal.

Barkley is a FA, they can't trade him just like we can't trade Ekeler.

This tweet doesn't state it well. Pip was league avg in pass block but fail in key moments at pass block which isn't good at all. And he also was bottom of league in run block which this tweet ignores to address. He looks like an overpaid swing tackle to me.

I posted the tweet without comment.
It is all about us being diligent in personnel thoughts.
Ari is saying that ORT is not necessarily a position of highest need.
Better play calling (Roman), better training (BHerbert), and better position coaching (Devlin)
can obviously help Pipkins perform better, especially at crucial portions of games.

Avg or better will serve if a couple are high "better". Reports assert that the new coaching staff are used to developing young talent into solid team players
......And I suspect a draft pick and FA.

The TEAM concept is far more pervasive under Harbaugh. Including the S&C staff, OL coaches, TE/ run game co, pass game co, Sr O Asst Trestman, OC Roman.
Every play has 10 more players that can help Pip out and he them. The coaching staff are there to prepare them and show them how.
This is not Staley's Chargers.

As expected . . . . . . . . . . . . you're a lost cause (no knock intended)

None taken, good friend - but thats nonsense. I once was lost, but now I’ve been found.

If Murray were to sign a real cheap 1 year prove it deal to see what he can do in Minter’s D, I’m down with that. If he can’t beat out a rook or Neiman, he’s gone the following year. If he has a good year, possible comp pick when he leaves.

Yep...the difference between Kendricks and Murray is that Kendricks whiffed a bit less than K9...
