red80 :
Borland is looking like a future anchor in the middle. Learning quickly, dare I say "P-Willy" is expendable moving forward. Hyde I knew would get immediate reps because of his blocking prowess. Lynch just needs to keep his head right, and Johnson is the size and speed we envisioned. The new mold of DB, able to be physical but also run.

I wonder what the 49ers are gonna do with P. Willy...Surely we can't keep a player like Borland on the sidelines, no?

 

[red80]

its bittersweet.

Idk about "expendable"; I get what you're saying but still seems like a slap in the face to Willis

I think it'd be appropriate to say we don't have to worry about finding Willis' future heir/replacement

Edit: red80 champcruthik , is it really likely Willis could be cap casualty with emergence of Borland? Pretty wild if so but it is nature of the business.

 

[red80]

Walsh would have sent Willis packing this upcoming offseason. We'll see what Trent and staff do. At the end of the day, this is a business and if you have a cheaper productive player you're likely to go with him.

We could see Pat and Brooks both go this off season with the emergence of Borland and Lynch.

Either way, it's a good problem to have. 

 

[MON5T3R]

Willis is most likely going to have to restructure. You cant get rid of him though with Bowman coming off his injury.

 

[red80]

Yup, very true. We still have to see how Bowman looks.

i hate the fact that they just played one of the worst defense in the league with 5 turnovers and can only muster 16 pts.

Here's the thing. "P-Willy" provides invaluable leadership, but you can't pay for past services rendered. Good teams pay for what a player is going to do moving forward. Willis is 29 and Brooks is 30. If the numbers aren't team friendly, you move on.

Jimmy better hammer home this week, finish drives. Looking like my Eagles inside the opponent's 30-yard line.

Borland led the team in tackles and INTs

On a bum shoulder.

not sure if they get rid of brooks, isn't he playing for pennies after they restructured his contract with a bunch of cash up front? if anything keep him on as a solid back up

with the way wilhoite is playing, we are incredibly lucky to have borland.. dude shoots the gap so well, idk how many times he was in the backfield

one thing I'm confident in is that crabs mediocre bum *** self will be gone after this year.

Jay Glazer said SF almost traded Brooks to Cleveland. Niners save $4.1M in '15 if they cut Brooks after this season.

 

[TheGodFresco]

willis aint leaving

Very dissapointed how we almost blew this game with Sheli throwing 5 INTS, the offense still is not playing well.

Its clear how much of an impact #99 makes to this team him and lynch

Borland my god, so good so quick

Wonder what happens to brooks

 

[champcruthik]

Wonder what happens to brooks

He's gone after this season. Writing on the wall.

 

[49ersaaron8]

Borland playing out of his mind.

Did brooks even get a snap today?? I saw Lemenior get one even.
