Tomsula just referred to himself in the third person as Jimbo. We’re done for the day, people
 
watching charles haley's induction right now makes me shake my ******* head in disappointment. i cant believe aldon ruined his own career. dude literally is charles haley 2.0. only reason haley was able to finish his career was because of the time he played in.

This generation of kids aren't built for this... Too much partying, impressing others etc

Btw, Bush still has that speed...can't wait to see him catch some balls out the backfield
 
why is arik armstead's first step/reaction time to the snap so damn slow? might be the slowest i've ever seen. dude is a freak, but they really need to fix that. 
sick.gif


 
i wish i knew how to make gifs, but peep this @:46 and slow it down to .25 speed.  the ball got to the QB, who is in shotgun, before he even moved. i wonder if he has issues getting out of his stance because hes so damn big

 

this dude seriously going to make everyone eat crow if he turns out to be a stud. i dont think ive talked to one person who believes he will be good in the NFL.

[h1]General manager Trent Baalke counseled Aldon Smith for hours after release[/h1]
While coach Jim Tomsula held a press conference Friday explaining why the 49ers released Aldon Smith, general manager Trent Baalke actually was still at the side of the troubled linebacker.

“And spent hours with him in making sure that we felt comfortable that he was in a place where he’s going to be OK,” Baalke said after Saturday’s practice.

Baalke declined to state whether he and Smith remained at the 49ers facility or at his nearby apartment, which is where Smith got arrested Thursday night for an alleged hit-and-run, drunken-driving accident.

“It’s safe to say, and honest to say, that’s where I was. I wouldn’t change a thing. Coach got up there and spoke very well on behalf of the organization and certainly on behalf of Aldon.

“At that moment in time, I felt I needed to be where I was, and I wouldn’t change it.”

Baalke said Smith’s fate was sealed promptly upon the arrest, regardless of what Smith would say in an eventual meeting with Baalke and Tomsula. Baalke was unaware of an ESPN report Friday claiming that the 49ers released Smith because he wouldn’t take responsibility for his actions.

Smith, upon posting bail, told reporters as he left jail that justice would prevail because: “It wasn’t a DUI.”

“Any time a young guy gets in front of a camera, when it’s in the heat of the moment, we can always look back and say how we want to handle things differently,” Baalke said. “But it isn’t about looking back. it’s about looking forward.

“I’m confident he’s going to take the necessary steps and we’re certainly going to do what we can, and certainly are going to be there if he needs us.”

Because of Smith’s past issues — four other arrests, two of which were for drunken driving — Baalke said the 49ers

“The decision was made. It was something that, we had a plan in place and had discussed it with him. We were working hard and he was working hard, and will continue to work hard.

“This isn’t about football. Everyone wants to make this about football. This has nothing to do with football right now. It has everything to do with a human being and a quality, quality person. But he’s made some mistakes.”

Smith is receptive to the 49ers’ offering or if he’d rather cut ties entirely, Baalke said: “He’s been very receptive. When you go through a situation like that, there’s a lot of emotions. Players have it, we have it on the personnel side, coaches, everyone in this building.

“Yesterday was a tough day for a lot of people,” Baalke said. “Felt very comfortable with coach going to the podium so I could handle something I felt needed to be handled personally.”

We’ll continue to communicate with him and, from an organizational standpoint, do anything we can to help him.

Baalke said he has not fielded calls from any other team about whether they should sign Smith, who collected 42 sacks in his first 43 games prior to last season. Smith, who missed five games in 2013 while in alcohol treatment, had only two sacks last season upon returning from a nine-game, league-imposed suspension.
I hope this dude can get his life together and possibly one day we can see him again in a 49er uniform again. i never thought i'd see charles haley in a niner uni again after he got traded. who knows.

Arik was the last one off the line but got to the QB first :lol

Some team will pay Aldon much $ if and when he comes back and it won't be us :{
 
i think if baalke had his way, he would tell the media, social media and all that **** to **** off, and he would keep aldon around as long as he wanted.

john told me charles haley used to come into the locker room drunk as ****, and he would start beating his meat while he screamed obscenities at his teammates. 
laugh.gif


this is the dude we signed. looks like camp fodder.

Hows the defensive line projected to look like in the base package and the nickel package? I know they said Dockett was starting training camp in the nickel package but theres no way he doesnt start in our base package.

Btw Dockett said that Armstead reminds him of Calais Campbell but with a better upside :lol
 
I would be surprised if Armstead makes an impact this year but he's good for next year.

I was really impressed with Tomsula in the press conference and I'm rooting for him as well. Just seems like a good guy and the players like him a lot
 
when he flashes he looks REALLY good. that play @ :42 vs FSU in the highlight video above is a holy **** play. dude got manhandled by AA lol. that was some JJ watt ****.

one thing is for sure, armstead ended up in the right situation with Jimmy T as his head coach. If anyone can maximize this guys potential its Tomsula. His track record speaks for itself. This is the man that turned Justin Smith from a 4-3 edge rusher to a 3-4 DE monster and got average guys like Ricky Jean Francois, Isaac Sopoaga, Aubrayo Franklin, etc and turned them into solid NFL-caliber players.

Great point Red.

As always your extensive knowledge is appreciated :hat

Can't wait for this damn season to start already, as Torrey said there's still a lot of talent on this team and people are making it out to be worse than it actually is.
