Guess you never heard of the “drop kick”. Our goal is to score more points. Edwards can do that. Bojo secures field position. Win win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, im surprised there isn't more k dumping, tbh. Like with that one QB guy who was traded with picks for later round picks to the Browns some time ago.

That being said, skill positions take priority 100%. Didn't the league raise it to 48? Maybe if the game roster includes 8 OLINEMEN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn’t you maximize the likelihood of both by retaining more of those position players at the expense of two or three cans of tomato soup (7th CB or 8th Olineman). #freeyourmind #fergysproof #fergytheory #calculus LOL! Please don't "call me", period. Are you new to football? Or just one of those self-proclaimed stats geeks who thinks he has come up with a prize-winning theory? Kickers and punters are fsiy easy to find and add to a roster if necessary. Carrying 2 of each on the 53 is insane and depletes depth at other positions.

The 49ers know what it takes to win in this league and it takes a franchise long snapper. No,he actually y played two years for Tampa Bay then THEY cut him. He only lasted a month in SF. He's available, and you know,you gotta have special teams depth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you "fsiy" new to football? Kickers are so easy to find that some teams replaced kickers multiple times last year. It is easy to find kickers. It is hard to find good, consistent kickers. Not that I agree with keeping Bojangles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBob2232 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 If we can squeeze it in - i like keeping bass and Hauschka . Love Bass as the future - but its risky right now. If we cut hauschka - and Bass shows rookie problems - we're in trouble. I'd rather keep the insurance policy on the roster now. Its possible the NFL will grant roster expemptions. Gotta expect some COVID issues will come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Process," thus far has led to zero playoff wins. I no longer trust it and I think going at it from a different angle makes sense. The current run, run, pass, punt "process," has been wildly unsuccessful. Time to think outside the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This s why it makes sense to keep a long-range FG specialist in addition to Haushka.. A play was called, Josh got 4 yards and a bogus penalty was called on it, pushing them out of FG range. If the penalty hadn't been called, it would have still been a 53 yard FG. Are betting your season on a guy making a 53 yard FG? In hindsight, sure.
