Ooh, baby, even better.
Here we go. Open up the floodgates. Unleash,
unleash the kraken.
All right, and here we go. It's Trey. Lance at number 31. Mmm.
All righty, here we go. Spots from last year. I know. I don't
know where this is gonna go. I don't know if I'm going to be
hated and loved assassinated or what here in the next 48 hours,
maybe all of the above. So we'll see where
it goes. Um, he's a little bit hated. Yeah. Yes. I don't see
assassin. Okay, good. Good. Good. Let's not go there, but,
you know, Trail. It's I'm you know, flat-out. First thing.
I'll say, it was probably one of the hardest guys to really
place on the whole list. And he really is, I see, listen, I see
the talent, the potential,
all of that. There's no doubt.
I mean, you know, I get if you were a really into that and you
believed you could groom them and fix them and do some of
that I can get. Why you pick him another three.
The arm is ridiculously strong and he's a good athlete and
he does seem like, you know, again, he's a good kid and from
everything I've heard from anybody. He is smart, but
I don't I haven't seen the smarts on the field yet. I would say.
All right,
there are some things there. So we talked about the, the talent
and yeah, all that. And yes, there is that there's no doubt
and Shannon has had to be able to do some special things, but
I still got too many questions too.
That's why I couldn't play some higher
where there's going to be a few guys in front of them that are
they're not as talented as him that we'll get to in the next
pot. Which biggest question, well,
I think the accuracy is still the biggest question, just
the pure ability to be a thrower and a passer,
you know, again every game was a f***** Miracle to get back to
50% throwing. I mean, it really was it was an oh, he's 64 15
here. Early in the fourth quarter.
He's he's 64 19 and it's early fourth quarter, and I feel like
Shanahan had, a talk plays to basically go. Let's get his
completion percentage up. So maybe we can end the game at
50%. Yeah. I mean, I really felt like as I
was watching some of the game
That was, that was part of it
so that yes, you know. And then the ability as we talked about
many times in the preseason last year, the ability to throw
the appropriate ball, you know, when we went through that
period last year of like,
you know, people were like, and it's so many drops in
the preseason is like drops. Its he's thrown two receiver from
you to me and he threw it as hard as he can. Be fastball
nose down. No spin, right? We've hit on that, and that's
it, jumps out when you watch on film. Not only that.
I think the thing that is concerning is
its ya round. 50% damn.
Almost 50% of the completions are like, well, that guy barely
caught it or won't he had to turn around and make some crazy
catch, not easy. It's nothing is easy. Yeah, and then I think
what added on to it. You see very few real quarterback
plays, go through the pocket, do all that, read.
It, do all that a lot of his big plays in a stats for what
I would call Shanahan specials, where I'd go listen,
it's great throw downfield and all that but
Wide open by 10 miles. Yeah,
I mean you could have put me or you and on that play and we
still would have got that done. Right, you know, and so I know
people going to look at that and go. Wow, and I understand
the wow factor,
but that's not enough.
I got to see stuff like that and plays like that within
the normal Rhythm of the offense and and other things too, you
know, too many of the big successful plays. We're just
Shanahan servant and up on a platter. I want you to keep
going.
Yeah, with this sentence in between, right? This is a team
that expects to be playing in late January. Yeah. He's not
the best. Back on the roster,
tell me if I'm right or wrong. No right now. He's not. No,
he's not the best quarterback on the roster, you know, and
Jimmy, garoppolo's on that roster. Jimmy garoppolo's going
to be, he's on this list. Of course, he's above this, right?
Sure.
Yeah. How do you deal with that? It's going to be tough.
You know, now,
but
this is Shanahan.
Who's
probably the most creative offensive coaching football.
Mmm. He started two games last year.
They can had Arizona on the ropes in Arizona,
the Houston Texans game it gay, go back and watch that. And
explain everything. Is it was struggles Ville, but they hung
in there and then a few Shanahan specials came up and
they win the game,
but you know,
even where he is here, and yes, Jimmy garoppolo's going to be
higher than this.
And you drafting a but number three, his potential is great.
There's the word, Shanahan can hide the deficiencies
Shanahan will you know, highlight the good things he
does and do that.
And that'll help the growing curve here a little bit. Yes.
That's the thing. I look at
and then, hey, the 49ers,
maybe you're the best team in football is going to say
is is the team around him. Good enough on offense and defense
where you can do. Okay, we're going to, we're going to make
this kid. Goodbye Thanksgiving. Yes, we might end up there.
Only a game. Or two above 500 or three or four, who knows,
right? But once we get to December, yeah, I think that's
why you got to do that.
I think so. I get up. I am you got to start. Let me go to do
it. You gotta do it. Yes. I think you're saying exactly
right and I think yes to your point in my answer is yes that
they they are the 49ers are Super Bowl team period they
were last year. We know that
and you know, even with saying all this, you know, you know,
they've basically had to do some of this stuff with Jimmy.
Will do. Yeah, so it's not like it's going to be like, oh my
gosh, we gotta figure out how to kind of work around our
quarterback. No, s***. Well, they've been doing that with
Jimmy Garoppolo. So I swear I have
tremendous, you know, faith and Shanahan. Yep, and I think
Shanahan could probably make it look even better than it. Might
actually be like it did last year. It looked
when you look at it two stacks of
paper going to need that skill. I know for a while, I think so
right until he, you know, grows into like what you're talking
about. Yeah, but I think that would be to me. The goal is
just hey, let's get him out there. Let's
Gonna play and let's get progress. And if we can get to
like you're talking about mid November late November where we
start to go. Oh, yeah. He's starting to read the field and
make a few special throws
watch out for the 49ers. And that's again another part to
bring into this conversation of why it's so important that they
keep Debo Samuel because he's going to make life a lot easier
on train lands. Exactly. Where would
right? Let's have a little fun with the fact that the schedule
just came out in this whole topic of trade, Lance Jimmy
Garoppolo. So what percent chance right now did Jimmy
Garoppolo?
Week one starter
over Lance as we kind of take a peek here
at the Niners 2020 to schedule.
It sounds like it's not very high.
Yeah, it's not high at Bears Seahawks single digits to me.
I mean, it's it's it's if Trey Lance falls off a cliff and we
never see him again
or like something crazy happens. It's not a competition
like the decisions been made, I think so. I think Shanahan told
everybody at the owners meeting that we think Trent trays ready
to go.
Yeah.
So there you go. He said that At.
So, there you go.
He's right there.
They tried to change trade, Jimmy Garoppolo. So we know
where they are. Yeah, and then
man, see, nice way to start at Chicago. I don't know. I don't
see it with Chicago
debrief loose, you know,
got respect for him. I know he's a good defense of mine,
certainly, and in Seattle, and then, Seattle s***. I mean,
it's, you know, that's not a bad start. For the get started
with here, Seattle, kind of been a retool rebuild mode
and then the, you know, and then you go back to the what
I call the Shanahan homecoming
The Shanahan's go back to Mile High Stadium, the Broncos.
There the place where Kyle's dad, you know, put the Broncos
on the map and all that and hey, shut the
the Broncos. They hired Vance Joseph over Kyle Shanahan. They
could have had him as their head coach. So there's there's
some,
you know, interesting little wrinkles to that game right there.
