Cant wait!
 
Yah.

Frank looks heavier. He was pretty banged up to end the year, maybe he used that time to heal and not workout.

Then again Frank never really was cut-up in the upper body.
 
i'd imagine frank with some extra lbs could be beneficial to the smash run down their mouth football, i'd also expect them to draft or sign another bigback.

word has it that manny lawson has also added 20lbs of muscle.

Alright 49er War Room ... a little advice please.

I'm 4 or 5 picks away from our nfl mock first second round pick (43) we also have another @ 58.

I want to draft Phil Loadholt SR 6-8/343/- Oklahoma, but there are so many good players on the board:

James Laurenitis (sp) MLB
Hakeem Nicks WR
Larry English OLB
William Moore S
Micheal Johnson DE

I picked Aaron Maybin @ 23 if he bulks up he can play DE, but if not he could be an OLB in our 3-4. If so Micheal Johnson would be sick off the edge at 6'7260.

Or we can leave Maybin at DE and pickup Laurenitis with Patrick Willis ... Takeo needs a replacement and spikes can help mentor him to be a beast.

Larry English is a sleeper IMO ... with Brandon Jones signed via FA .. Hakeem Nicks can be a good slot receiver, or we can draft Moore.

I'm confused

Heads up war room:

I traded 49ers

58th and 4th round pick

For the bills 42nd pick.

So we have a back2back 42nd & 43rd.
 
James Laurenitis seems like a nice pick in the 2nd.

Also, Frank looks like a god damn line man. smh
 
im gonna draft Phil Loadholt, 6'8 350lbs, you can't coach size.

laurenitis would be sick, i love his intensity.

looking at all my options.
 
I read in the blog at sfgate.com that Gore wasn't fully running as in he would run 10 yards and stop. Compared to a lot of the other players at camp. Ihope everything is cool with him and he isn't upset or anything.
 
One thing I'm happy about is leaving the 3-4 hybrid and being a true 3-4 now..We just need a NT..
 
wouldn't blame him. he undeservedly got that extension and is now playing behind a leaky line. what motivation does he have now?
 
Ill be in SF around 3 weeks from now... Hopefully I can get in something 49er related... Im mad hype

Nice pics...
 
Frank Gore didn't look good and in fact, appeared a little disinterested. He didn't run out his plays and on pass receptions he'd go 10 yards and just stop, although that attitude isn't likely to linger into training camp. On another note, I said the 49ers might be more effective as a passing team now, with the development of their young receivers and the relative stability they received from Shaun Hill last year at quarterback. But Gore remains a potent force. Consider these statistics: Since 2006, Gore ranks second in rushing yards with 3,833 behind LaDainian Tomlinson's 4,399 and third in overall yards (5,127) to Brian Westbrook (5,358) and Tomlinson (5,808). He's also first in yards per carry average (4.72) since 2006. He's also one of those rare complete backs who can run, catch and pass protect. Nevertheless, Gore would benefit from a strong passing game.

Some backs that might still be available in the later 2nd or 3rd rounds that have good size:

Shonn Greene 5'11 235lbs
Rashad Jennings 6'1 234lbs
Donald Brown 5'10 208lbs
 
^^
they should let Thomas Clayton play ...dude was beasting during pre-seaon last 2 season and he's works well during practice ...give dude a chance ...anddraft a RB late

Niners lose Strickland to the Jets

A 49ers' team that was light on cornerbacks over the weekend minicamp will not have Donald Strickland next season. Strickland has agreed to a three-year deal with the Jets, according to agent Peter Schaffer. Strickland also had visited with the Tennessee Titans. A San Francisco native, Strickland, 28, was a versatile and hard-nosed defensive back for the 49ers, starting 10 games in the last three seasons and seeing plenty of action in the team's nickel coverage packages. One of Strickland's starts this past season was against the Jets.

The 49ers' starting cornerbacks this season will be Nate Clements and Walt Harris. Both Shawntae Spencer and Tarell Brown were nursing injuries as the 49ers began their minicamp Friday while Reggie Smith is being converted into a safety. The backups for the minicamp were Marcus Hudson and Allen Rossum, the team's return specialist. The 49ers have looked at least two cornerbacks in free agency -- Eric Green and Karl Paymah. Both signed elsewhere.

How are the 49ers looking as far as complementory picks for next season? The NFL has a secret formula for doling those out, but it essentially examines whether a team's free-agent losses outweigh its free-agent gains.

Losses:
DL Ronald Fields
WR Bryant Johnson
QB J.T. O'Sullivan
CB Donald Strickland
(The team also could lose TE Billy Bajema)

Additions:
DL Demetric Evans
QB Damon Huard
WR Brandon Jones
FB Moran Norris

I liked Strickland.

I can't believe Walt Harris is still our starting CB going into this season
