Some interesting tidbits coming out of 49ers training camp.
Unfortunately some bad news today injury wise - starting linebacker Malcolm Smith ruled out for the year (though it opens up a spot for Reuben Foster to start which was a matter of time) and starting guard Garnett out for a while with a knee injury.
On the positive side really strong reports on QB Hoyer and new receivers (Goodwin, draft pick Trent Taylor) and the defensive line talent looks to be hugely promising (Armstead as a slimmed down pash rusher is causing havoc).
@KiwiMurph The 49ers defence might take some time but I think the offence is going to be very good in year one of the Shanaplan.

@Sneakdefreak As long as he doesn't try to shut down games we are winning by making his QB throw passing plays on every down

Biggest news at the moment is Cutler coming out of retirement to sign for the Dolphins.

I don't think he's that good, but Miami is a good spot for a QB at the moment. They have a good WR corps, Oline, running back and OC.

@HugeCarrot2 What site do you play fantasy on?
@HugeCarrot2 What site do you play fantasy on?
We use NFL.com, I find it fairly simple.
We had a Silver Fern league back in 2013/2014 that Sneak used to run, though some people would just draft and not be active which was annoying-basically 4-5 of us were active. I made a family league for 2015 and got a couple of guys on here and a couple from the Tab to help make up the numbers-Sneak won that year.
Last year we got up to a 14 team league but some miscommunication meant I thought Sneak wasn't playing so he didn't get a chance to defend his title.
This yeah we've got too many for one league so I kept the family league but I'm looking to spin off a different league built around the Tab guys who work at head office-a couple of them do the nfl trading for Tab. They had 5 guys play last year in our league so with a few more add ons we should b able to have two 10-12 team leagues (the family one is full). 10-12 is the best size imo.
Players must be active though-two years ago we had two randoms who never did anything and didn't bother setting their teams so I just booted them out after a few weeks and found replacement players.

ESPN is doing a documentary about the shabby treatment I received - it's up there with Muhammad Ali - but count me in.

Rookie QBs looking good so far in preseason - Watson, Trubisky and Kizer all excelling in their first action. What it means is hard to say as they are playing against backups in pretty bland games (as far as scheming goes) but then again Dak Prescott this time last year lit up the preseason and of course transferred it to the regular season.
On the other hand veteran Glennon looked horrible for Chicago in limited time against the starters. Trubisky might be Bears starting QB by week 1 if this keeps up.
I expect Mahommes to look very good for the Chiefs tomorrow as the 49ers depth at secondary is thin and again he'll be playing against the backups.

@KiwiMurph Mahomes did alright as the Chiefs lost to the 49ers. CJ Beathard was also pretty decent, although against second and third tier players.
It will be interesting to watch the QB duel in Chicago unfold however Dak Prescott benefited from having the best O-line in the NFL and a superstar RB to hand the ball to. Trubisky has a shit O-line to protect him, mediocre running game to back him up and also mediocre WRs to throw to.
If the Bears are smart they'll just play Glennon the whole season, but they're not so Trubisky to be thrown to the Bears. -
Buffalo swaps some WRs. Picks up Philly WR Jordan Matthews and trades away WR Sammy Watkins to LA Rams. These pre-season trades rarely work out for the involved teams (unless its New England).

The most important thing for buffalo is the picks I think. They're loaded up for a massive rebuild next year. 6 picks in the first 3 rounds I think. Race on the bottom of AFC East between them and the Jets now.

@Cyclops Might as well. Tom Brady has at least another two years in him.

I wonder how long Belichick has left? Jimmy G might be good enough to carry the Pats to the playoffs post-Brady, but only if Belichick is there.
@mimic I think he will continue until he decides he's too old, so maybe another decade. He's proven that his system guarantees regular season success regardless of the QB and the owner will let him retire on his own terms.
