J-ALL-DAY Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 https://overthecap.com/the-mystery-on-the-3rd-4th-round-compensatory-pick-cutoff-has-been-solved The reason why the Niners received a 4th round compensatory pick instead of a 3rd round pick. Interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhyAmIHere Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Rookie minicamps coming up. I want to hear if Mason Pline looks like a football player, that's about it lol. Pretty confident everyone else will look fine in shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhyAmIHere Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 (edited) Wanted to see how the OL held up during the playoffs, and I found these cool videos on youtube that show every one of Brock's dropbacks in those games: I'll just say I can understand why they prioritized the interior OL. Pleasantly surprised by McKivitz in these games, held up very well vs Hutchinson and Chris Jones especially...consistency is an issue though. Banks was ROUGH.

Really, from about halfway through the year, he was mostly "okay" outside of the Ravens game. You can get by with Mckivitz if you have to. He's not a starting tackle or anything, but you can make due. I still expect him to give up 3 sacks a game any time he goes up against a truly elite edge guy like TJ Watt. As the draft season wore on, definitely felt more like interior line should be a bigger target and felt less and less like they could find someone who could immediately upend Mckivitz 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKivitz gets held back by his athleticism, and it shows against really bursty edge guys with great first steps. Seems like he got a lot stronger though. Still very impressive what he did to Hutchinson in these clips. just stonewalled that guy...Jones as well, stood up to his bull rush. He's still young, maybe he will improve? who knows. I tend to root for guys who everybody hates, because it can feel irrational at times. Also, they REALLY dodged a bullet in that GB game, Brock was just awful lol. Hopefully "bad weather Brock" doesn't hold back his career. Edited May 10 by WhyAmIHere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me a Tackle would have represented a pick for the eventual future without Trent Williams rather than someone who would be expected to replace McKivitz right away (not that McKivitz would have prevented it if it was earned). But I think it's quite telling in a class with this many offensive tackles in the first and our lack of movement for one that replacing either Trent or McKivitz in the near future wasn't going to need to be a thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point, we could have a much more reasonable offensive line with Banks as a fine third guard and Moore as a swing tackle that exists without being totally obtrusive (please never play Burford any important minutes ever again). Like you say, McKivitz's issue is mostly being roasted by terrific pass rushers. And that's going to happen to a lot of teams' second tackles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can all have chats about pff metrics for other positions, but Burford had a 28.3 pass blocking grade and he was just that horrifying to watch. I'll let you know that is significantly below the Zane Beadles line. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhyAmIHere Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Was listening to Jonnydel and he mentioned another factor with pass protection. He said that with Pearsall, we finally have another guy who can quickly beat man coverage (ideally ofc), which would allow CMC to stay in and help in Pass Pro more, or check and release.
