They got Trent Williams, Aiyuk, Kinlaw. All to replace good players that were at their positions before. I'd say we defietely upgraded from Sanders and Buckner so yeah the Niners got better
I dont think kinlaw can be expected to instantly be as good as Buck but i think more importantly its whether the guys that we already have on the roster get better, and Sherman is the only key player who i dont think will be better coming back next year. Kittle, Mcglinchey, Deebo, Bosa, Warner, Jimmy G e.t.c will all be better next season. Then add trent williams to the mix and hopefully Mckinnon will finally be fit and i think the 49ers are gonna be SB contenders again
This guy was DT1 for me this year. The strength, fluidity, first step. He’s a freak and he’s just gone to the best (or worst depending on your perspective) scenario. He’s gonna be SUCH a stud.
I'm kinda confused as to what you meant by him going to the "best or worst" scenario, depending on one's perspective. I took it as you saying that he went to "the best scenario" in terms of the position that SF is currently in from an organizational standpoint; but "the worst scenario" in terms of the shoes that he will have to fill in Buckner's absence. But would you mind clarifying?
I totally agree, Kinlaw isn't a finished product. However with the resources he has at his disposal - Kris Kocurek, Arik Armstead, Nick Bosa - I have no doubt that he WILL eventually develop to his full potential.
@@bradleygilmer441 - Yea, I don't think it's gonna take long for him to develop his technique. But I do expect him to have a significant impact right away. He's just far too gifted an athlete not to.
The way I put it is Buckner was a DE who could play DT. Kinlaw is a DT who can play DE. All of the inside pass rush ability while being even more well equipped to fight the run. The game that killed me was Baltimore on their final drive attacked Buckner a lot to pick up those short yardage downs and the LBs were just a bit to slow to come in for support.
Kinlaw is going to be more productive inside than Buckner, especially in the 1 gap scheme. Buckner was built more like a DE than DT exactly as you say. Kinlaw is a perfect fit as a 1 gap inside defender, and he's stouter and stronger than Buckner. In the Ravens game we were playing a lot of relatively inexperienced linebackers, and it showed. They continue to improve, particularly Greenlaw, but also Aziz. Linebackers will become a strength of the team, particularly with Warner, Kwon, Greenlaw.
@@alexdelgadillo1569 when u bulldoze any stranded tackle with just a quick step n a swipe u don't worry bout technique he absolutely got it doe u wrong but he's more than that he instinctif
@@ScaryJerry80 Top 5? Try top 2, man! I think there's Aaron Donald and then DeFo. The guy is strong as steel (how many games did he miss during his career at SF?) and played nearly every defensive snap of those games. Boy, we're gonna miss him on our D-line!
The 49ers struck gold by drafting Javon Kinlaw. He will provide the 49ers with much needed size in the interior of their defensive line. Something that was obviously lacking in the Super Bowl as the running backs for the Kansas City Chiefs ran the ball with ease between the tackles.
@@elmerlara8043 The refs didnt call many penalties for either team that game. If you really want to get into it then every NFL play would have a holding call in some form. The refs let them play which was a breath of fresh air for once.
@@Daniel_Bradford trippen bc GKittle got a call before the first half ended which was a bs call . So many obvious holding on the chiefs side it's unbelievable . The NFL just needs a new face after Tom Brady leaves and they chose Patrick mahomes
@@Daniel_Bradford yes they didn't call a lot but it was clearly favoring KC. if sf got the calls I'd admit it. You can be happy your team wins and admit what the refs did at the same time
Buckner and Armstead felt like clones to me. Both great players with long bodies, but we lacked that true big body in the middle outside of Jones. Buckner is better than Kinlaw at the moment but the defensive balance may be better now.
"You can't double everyone" got even tougher. The 49ers elite D-Line got better with Kinlaw. He's a bit raw, but he's coming into a great D-Line and great D-Line coach, like Bosa did. Unlike Bosa, Kinlaw has more room to improve his technique, in addition to adjusting his size, etc. Kinlaw is a much better 1 gap scheme fit than Buckner, who did very well despite that, due to being a freakish athlete. Kinlaw is even more freakish and he has better strength and leverage. He was easily the top inside defensive lineman in the draft and has the potential to be elite. Due to the existing talent on the D-Line, Kinlaw will be productive quickly, as was Bosa, who also came into a highly talented line. We all hated to see him go, but trading Buckner to get Kinlaw was brilliant. Kinlaw is younger and cheaper (on rookie contract), and arguably is an improvement due to youth, strength, scheme fit, better leverage, etc. And Buck got his much deserved payday.
If Bosa continues to progress by changing pressures into more sacks, Kinlaw will thrive next to Bosa, Armstead and Dee Ford on the other side. Every single defensive lineman will get one on ones, if not they’ll make offenses pay. I say Bosa gets double digit sacks, Kinlaw will get his 8-10 with a droy candidate. Kinlaw-Bosa will be the best 49er D lineman combo since Bryant Young and Dana Stubblefield.
As always, great video. I completely agree, I feel like Kinlaw is going to be a huge nightmare on opposing offenses. I'm a Huge fan of yours! No one does it better!!
Sleepy Head I get what your saying but I’m talking about just the player. Javon can stop the run and pass rush. He is like armstead. Brown reminds me of hackeem hicks from the bears. Javon will be a pro bowl type player. All he has to do is get his hands better
Kinlaw is like Gerald McCoy and Derrick Brown is like Suh. Kinlaw has slightly better pass rush moves but Derrick Brown is the better prospect. Brown was a more sought after high school and college player. Brown is also more physically gifted.
@@savini8234 if anything I feel like he will be the number 1 receiver and very successful in this offense with Deebo being a strong #2 but more likely they are 1A and 1B but just to put their potential in perspective and how scouts feel about their ceilings Deebo was lower on most teams draft boards in a weaker wr class where Aiyuk had the better outlook
He's a bust already bro, they've already talked about moving him to corner instead because his ball skills at receiver are lacking. Just remember, the harder their name is to pronounce, the more likely they are to be trash...
It seems as though Kinlaw was actually held on that play you broke down @7:30, and he was STILL able to disrupt the play and flush Lawrence out of the pocket. Just think of the impact that this ability is likely to have in a system that has two additional elite pass-rushers (one on each edge in Armstead and Bosa).. I'm really excited to see these guys play together in 2020!
I totally agree with everyting you outlined in this video, Alex.. It pretty much confirms everything I've been saying about Kinlaw for the past couple weeks. Thanks for yet another brilliant video!
Yo man, you got the best NFL videos out there. I'm a bit partial to the niners ones as a niners fan, but your breakdowns and football knowledge are so engaging fun to watch. Keep em coming
We gotta be realistic here, dude is silent all season and then gets a pick six. It’s not fair to all the other people to call javon super good, or even the next d-buck
Watching you for a while and just subscribed. I am a 3 rd generation niner fan and just a die hard football fan in general. In 3 FF leagues yearly and won 2 of them this last year, just needed the miners to win the SB to make my life complete. Sadly there is still a void. However I think the 49ers got better for sure and that goes for a few reasons I would say that the deforest Buckner Kinlaw exchange will roughly break is even in Kinnelon might even add a dynamic that we didn’t have before just in his absolute size and strength. Most importantly you’ve got bullshit going into his second year you’ve got the Ford that is in his second year in the system Kwon Alexander that was absolutely more dominant than people even talk about when he was healthy and he’s going to be coming in healthy and ready to go not to mention Fred Warner coming into His own. Sherman seems like he’s been maintaining at a high-level and may even get slightly quicker as time passes in the gap between his injury and healthy seems to wisen a bit. I love Jimmy Ward for coming back, once we do iron out our corner situation on the opposite side of Sherman and eventually have Sherman‘s replacement coming up or adding another veteran on the other side of the bar when we lose Sherman might be a great idea as well. As far as Office goes Jimmy needed that first year and somewhat success throughout to give him the confidence to take the next step forward. I am maybe one of the few that actually believe that the Jimmy we saw those last five games of 2017 Was closer to who Jimmy is. I think the benefit was he just didn’t have enough pressure on him that impacted his play. Once he got injured and had kind of a rough start in the beginning of the year 2018 I think there was a lot of pressure on him and it seems like no matter what he did to prove the doubters wrong as last year there was always another reason to doubt him and therefore never really been able to let go I think of some of that pressure, that also includes the shadow syndrome coming from Tom Brady. I think he’s going to break out this year I think now that we have A stable of wide receivers that are hand chosen by Shanahan and they all add that dynamic aspect to go along with kiddo the best tight end in the league you add Taylor Samuel and the new guy that I can’t seem to remember at the moment LOL, not to mention Hurn And I hope Paris works out because I actually like his personality and I think that he does have a unique route running ability that could prove to be successful in the NFL and I would love for him to find his niche. With that said we also have Jerick McKinnon coming back which nobody seems to even talk about. Mostert did great and I am truly hoping that he keeps that pace going forward and just kills it, seems like he deserves it, as as does McKinnon. So having Coleman McKinnon and Rahim not to mention juice, That is one hell of a running back committee and not even to mention Jeff Wilson as well, who’s got a sweet speed and quickness that comes in for that one play the wins the game as he did at the end of the Cardinals game I believe? I could be wrong about that but I think it was the Cardinals last year. You’ve got Shanahan more comfortable with all of these people in his offense we filled all the holes of great players that we lost we’ve got great players coming up getting more experience more comfortable in the system and I think as the years go by Jimmy G is going to just get better and better and therefore raise the play of everyone around him take pressure off of the defense allowing them to take some more rest I think we are constantly moving in the direction of better until we get to the point where we have reached our potential, and I doubt that time will seem like it ever arrives because Shannon will constantly be tweaking in approving his system to remain at an advantage over the rest the week. So definitely better. Really like the way you look at the game love watching your videos I’ll be there for you to watch it and hopefully here as things get better on the economic front I’ll have some money to donate to you as well please keep the content come in and will always try to keep an eye out if you ever respond and I love talking football so you’ll always get a response. Have a good one Alex! Go Niners!
8:09 kinlaw was being held. Should've been a sack but damn he nearly got just with his strength. He's gonna be something for the Niners that's for damn sure
If you are a college or high school football player these videos are gold 🔥 he literally breaking down every step and how to fix it if it’s wrong ITS FREE REAL ESTATE🤣 All I request are more breakdowns of D-Ends🙏🏼
I'm glad you like them K9. I try and cover every position, but I'd say check out my Chase Young (vs Nick Bosa), "The 49ers built the best Defensive Line" and my in season Nick Bosa breakdown. Let me know what you think
AlexRollinsNFL I’ve been watching the bosa brothers since high school because I lived down the street from their school and my cousin played when they were there never thought they would be running the NFL tho😂
Great breakdown. Thanks for highlighting the multiple moves he has, and his ability against the run and not just as a penetrator but also as a space eater against doubles. A lot of “analysts” tried to say all he has is his bull rush but that’s obviously not true. Were you planning on doing a film room on Aiyuk? Think he will be an amazing fit in the offense and will offer a deep threat element too. Especially with his crazy wingspan, Jimmy just needs to give him a chance down the field and he should come up with it more often than not
Sure thing Andrew, glad you liked it. If I was covering the 49ers full time last season, definitely. But now I'm trying to expand my channel and do all 32 teams. Probably won't get to Aiyuk, but I do miss sticking with the 49ers and the fanbase week in and week out.
Thanks Alex for doing this, since I had been looking forward to it. I know when the pick was made a lot of 49ers fans were a disappointed that Kyle/John didn't pull the trigger on one of the highly touted receivers myself included. However, after a while I started to come around to their decision. They couldn't afford Buckner, but didn't want to lose the dominating line play they had on defense. Someone with Kinlaw's potential was just too good to pass up, especially in a draft that had a lot of receiver depth to it. I wasn't aware how huge he was. Hopefully he really does help the 49ers fix the run defense, because that was a bit of a weak area last year. Also, the 49ers need all the help they can get when they have to chase Wilson and Murray around twice a year.
@Jonathan Dee The One And Only no disrespect to Buckner, I think he is a solid player. He was not worth the money he wanted from the niners. He just doesn't have the strength kinlaw has, that's what this line really needs. We need a Justin Smith type dlineman to open up shop for guys like bosa and ford
Chase young doesn't need a whole lot of moves to be a great player. He is stronger and faster and bigger than khalil mack. He will be great no matter what
Great video and great channel I found this not knowing anything about Kinlaw and while I know he may need time to develop he's a special talent! I really like the analysis you bring to the table
Javon Kinlaw is going to create a lot of holding penalties and Double Teaming by the opposing team's Offenses and that means the Defence is going to get a lot more sacks this year
49ers EMPIRE he going to fit right in i feel it thats a beast and we the mighty 49ers we create Legends no worries not over here we stack and we ready no mercy tour coming soon🐺
he costed too much. we extended armstead instead plus resigned some key players. tried to keep the team together for a superbowl run in 2020 but got injured.
Hey Alex, I'd love it if you revisited this video and analyze why Kinlaw didn't do too good in the 2020 season, analyzing his strengths and weaknesses on the field, similar to the Tua and Hurts videos
Things just take time, Buckner's rookie year he didn't blow up either (although it was statistically better than Kinlaw's) I'll give big K another full 16 before I make another episode on him
Said this when we drafted him. Buck was a beast coming out of Oregon, But Kinlaw is a little better coming out of south carolina. And with all the talent on the line... he won't be the focul point and will be able to dominate with all the focus on boca, arid and ford. And he's bigger and faster lol love buckner but i think we upgraded!
If Kinlaw can get down to 300lbs whilst maintaining his strength and improving his speed he is going to have a really strong rookie season. He has the right coaches around him to help him work on his technique, hand placement and with Nick Bosa on the line with him, he has a technician who can show him some moves.
One of those 'great prospect in a great situation' picks. So not only did Niners manage to sell high on Buckner and got a pick, his replacement may actually be the long term Niner. 5-7 years from now that Niner front 4 could still feature the Kinlaw and Bosa wrecking crew.
Hey Alex! Great video! Are you are in the process of making a video on NYG T Andrew Thomas? I know myself and many other Giants fans would like to see your analysis of that pick
I just really hope Kinlaw can stay healthy for all 16 games. Buckner played damn near every down, all the time. I believe Kinlaw will be a better power gap penetrator that beefs up the stats of his other D-lineman. Buckner had a lot of hustle but seemed to dance around a bit and use moves rather than quick power.
Hopefully kinlaw is an exceptional player the only 49ers weaknesses were obviously the very slow secondary and offensive line should have protected Garoppolo better other than that the team was
For a player with so many elite physical traits, Kinlaw's tape was much more inconsistent than expected. -Playing style lacks control and efficiency -Looks great but lacks technique for consistency -High-cut and straight-legged into engagement -Struggles to absorb down blocks and hold his ground -Pads get turned when sliding laterally, causing loss of leverage and fit -Inconsistent use of hands to control point of attack -Rushes in with wild charge instead of moves and counters -Attacks blocks with inconsistent base and balance
Kinlaw is probably going to be more effective as an individual but Buckner being more polished and a leader on the defensive line I believe is hard to discount. I don't see Armstead or Bosa being able to control the line like Buckner.
I don't think Kinlaw will be as good this year as Buckner was last year, but it took until Buckner's third year to really start to shine. By Kinlaw's third year, he may be better!
Yeah year 1 success is never easy, and you're right it took Buck some time to develop. I think what's interesting is Buckner had to be the main guy when he was drafted, whereas Kinlaw doesn't at all. It's a lot different carrying a dline instead of just being a part of one.
Definitely has a higher ceiling than brown.. the nfl is too late to learn to pass rush. Kinlaw is raw still so only time will tell how good he will be. He is a handful tho
Have the 49ers gotten better or worse since the 2019 season ended and why?
AlexRollinsNFL stayed the same in my opinion. Really depends how well Kinlaw and Aiyuk fit in.
They got Trent Williams, Aiyuk, Kinlaw. All to replace good players that were at their positions before. I'd say we defietely upgraded from Sanders and Buckner so yeah the Niners got better
I dont think kinlaw can be expected to instantly be as good as Buck but i think more importantly its whether the guys that we already have on the roster get better, and Sherman is the only key player who i dont think will be better coming back next year. Kittle, Mcglinchey, Deebo, Bosa, Warner, Jimmy G e.t.c will all be better next season. Then add trent williams to the mix and hopefully Mckinnon will finally be fit and i think the 49ers are gonna be SB contenders again
They got worse
yes we did get better because our rb jerrick mckinnon is back
This guy was DT1 for me this year. The strength, fluidity, first step. He’s a freak and he’s just gone to the best (or worst depending on your perspective) scenario. He’s gonna be SUCH a stud.
Brown is a beast he’s not the best
Logan Presnell I think that Brown is gonna be a monster but Kinlaw will probably fit in a 4-3 better than Brown and he could rotate and play some DE
I'm kinda confused as to what you meant by him going to the "best or worst" scenario, depending on one's perspective.
I took it as you saying that he went to "the best scenario" in terms of the position that SF is currently in from an organizational standpoint; but "the worst scenario" in terms of the shoes that he will have to fill in Buckner's absence. But would you mind clarifying?
@@CaptnCrunch247 I think he means worst scenario if you're the opposing team lol
Hes the best Passrushing DT. In terms of Run stuffing/stopping hes not as good as brown
I totally agree, Kinlaw isn't a finished product. However with the resources he has at his disposal - Kris Kocurek, Arik Armstead, Nick Bosa - I have no doubt that he WILL eventually develop to his full potential.
I think he will come along faster than say Armstead. Arik and Buck didnt have kouceric from the jump- and kinlaw Will...
@@bradleygilmer441 - Yea, I don't think it's gonna take long for him to develop his technique. But I do expect him to have a significant impact right away. He's just far too gifted an athlete not to.

I have to disagree. I think Javon's first step is amazing because he just explode the moment the ball is snap
Defo has incredible movement skills, but Kinlaw probably has a better inside burst and power. He's a much better inside 1 gap scheme fit than Buckner.

JAVON KINLAW WILL BE DEFENSE ROOKIE OF THE YEAR 2020
Well this aged like a glass of milk sitting out in the summer sun.
Watching you for a while and just subscribed. I am a 3 rd generation niner fan and just a die hard football fan in general. In 3 FF leagues yearly and won 2 of them this last year, just needed the miners to win the SB to make my life complete. Sadly there is still a void.

I think he’s going to break out this year I think now that we have A stable of wide receivers that are hand chosen by Shanahan and they all add that dynamic aspect to go along with kiddo the best tight end in the league you add Taylor Samuel and the new guy that I can’t seem to remember at the moment LOL, not to mention Hurn And I hope Paris works out because I actually like his personality and I think that he does have a unique route running ability that could prove to be successful in the NFL and I would love for him to find his niche. With that said we also have Jerick McKinnon coming back which nobody seems to even talk about. Mostert did great and I am truly hoping that he keeps that pace going forward and just kills it, seems like he deserves it, as as does McKinnon. So having Coleman McKinnon and Rahim not to mention juice, That is one hell of a running back committee and not even to mention Jeff Wilson as well, who’s got a sweet speed and quickness that comes in for that one play the wins the game as he did at the end of the Cardinals game I believe? I could be wrong about that but I think it was the Cardinals last year. You’ve got Shanahan more comfortable with all of these people in his offense we filled all the holes of great players that we lost we’ve got great players coming up getting more experience more comfortable in the system and I think as the years go by Jimmy G is going to just get better and better and therefore raise the play of everyone around him take pressure off of the defense allowing them to take some more rest I think we are constantly moving in the direction of better until we get to the point where we have reached our potential, and I doubt that time will seem like it ever arrives because Shannon will constantly be tweaking in approving his system to remain at an advantage over the rest the week. So definitely better.
Really like the way you look at the game love watching your videos I’ll be there for you to watch it and hopefully here as things get better on the economic front I’ll have some money to donate to you as well please keep the content come in and will always try to keep an eye out if you ever respond and I love talking football so you’ll always get a response.
Have a good one Alex! Go Niners!
Thanks Keith, appreciate you man
Again, can’t stop saying it. These are really good videos. Thanks Alex I love your work.
Thanks Cristian! that means a lot man
8:09 kinlaw was being held. Should've been a sack but damn he nearly got just with his strength. He's gonna be something for the Niners that's for damn sure
yup, looked like Bosa being clotheslined by KC in the Super Bowl on that crucial 3rd and long play
If you are a college or high school football player these videos are gold 🔥 he literally breaking down every step and how to fix it if it’s wrong
ITS FREE REAL ESTATE🤣
All I request are more breakdowns of D-Ends🙏🏼
I'm glad you like them K9. I try and cover every position, but I'd say check out my Chase Young (vs Nick Bosa), "The 49ers built the best Defensive Line" and my in season Nick Bosa breakdown. Let me know what you think
AlexRollinsNFL I’ve watched them all👍🏼💪🏼keep up the GREAT work
AlexRollinsNFL I’ve been watching the bosa brothers since high school because I lived down the street from their school and my cousin played when they were there never thought they would be running the NFL tho😂
Aged like milk this video did.
Great breakdown. Thanks for highlighting the multiple moves he has, and his ability against the run and not just as a penetrator but also as a space eater against doubles. A lot of “analysts” tried to say all he has is his bull rush but that’s obviously not true. Were you planning on doing a film room on Aiyuk? Think he will be an amazing fit in the offense and will offer a deep threat element too. Especially with his crazy wingspan, Jimmy just needs to give him a chance down the field and he should come up with it more often than not
Sure thing Andrew, glad you liked it. If I was covering the 49ers full time last season, definitely. But now I'm trying to expand my channel and do all 32 teams. Probably won't get to Aiyuk, but I do miss sticking with the 49ers and the fanbase week in and week out.
Thanks Alex for doing this, since I had been looking forward to it. I know when the pick was made a lot of 49ers fans were a disappointed that Kyle/John didn't pull the trigger on one of the highly touted receivers myself included. However, after a while I started to come around to their decision. They couldn't afford Buckner, but didn't want to lose the dominating line play they had on defense. Someone with Kinlaw's potential was just too good to pass up, especially in a draft that had a lot of receiver depth to it. I wasn't aware how huge he was. Hopefully he really does help the 49ers fix the run defense, because that was a bit of a weak area last year. Also, the 49ers need all the help they can get when they have to chase Wilson and Murray around twice a year.
I think alot of fans were upset at first, i was too. But after seeing the highlights he's grown on me. Excited to see what he
I felt the same man, I thought 100% it was going to be Jeudy at that pick and was dissapointed as well. But then I studied Kinlaw this week... man lol
@Jonathan Dee The One And Only no disrespect to Buckner, I think he is a solid player. He was not worth the money he wanted from the niners. He just doesn't have the strength kinlaw has, that's what this line really needs. We need a Justin Smith type dlineman to open up shop for guys like bosa and ford
Just with the "Stab, club, rip" he has more moves than Chase Young hahaha
Chase young has physicality and technique stop hating
Watch the video this guy put up, young is a beast but only uses his band to rush
Chase young doesn't need a whole lot of moves to be a great player. He is stronger and faster and bigger than khalil mack. He will be great no matter what
Great video and great channel I found this not knowing anything about Kinlaw and while I know he may need time to develop he's a special talent! I really like the analysis you bring to the table
Thank you Jesus
Javon Kinlaw is going to create a lot of holding penalties and Double Teaming by the opposing team's Offenses and that means the Defence is going to get a lot more sacks this year
thank you for this video
Do a Brandon aiyuk video. You're the best 🙌🏻
Fantastic analysis!
Thanks Richard
Nice film breakdown 👍
Thanks Kim, appreciate that
Welcome
Very excited to see Kinlaw! His film is fun to watch
Me too!
love your videos
Thanks Johnny! Appreciate you man
LETS GO !!!!!! 49ERS BABY !!
That HOLD at the 8:00 mark is almost as blatant as the hold on Bosa in the Superbowl 🤬
Another great episode!
Thank you!
49ers EMPIRE he going to fit right in i feel it thats a beast and we the mighty 49ers we create Legends no worries not over here we stack and we ready no mercy tour coming soon🐺
With a specimen like this, fans -- and coaches -- can dream.
People don't realize how much skill and strategy Big Lineman possess. I think Kinlaw will do fine for the 49ers.
All Gas Baby!
This aged well
I'm about ready to embrace the every year d lineman trend. I do love da saq
Can't wait to see this D line doing it for real. Niner's 19 in 20. Will feel great baby.
I want to see a comparison video of the best anti run deffesive linemen vs some d line players who could improve in that area.
Yea... we’ll see....Buckner is that rare talent that cant be replaced !!!!!
If ur not doubling him every play ur gonna be in trouble
SF: laughs in nick bosa arik armstead and dee ford
Great Vid. Best thing to hear since the SB. Go 49ners
Thanks Janan, he's a beast
Niner fan since age 5 and I'm pissed they let buckner go but hearing what you just said im not so disappointed and more hopeful now for the franchise
Losing Buck was still brutal. Imagine having both of these guys up the middle
Sadly this didn't age well and we should never have traded DeForest Buckner.
he costed too much. we extended armstead instead plus resigned some key players. tried to keep the team together for a superbowl run in 2020 but got injured.
I really like your style of doing the breakdowns. Is there any way I can learn how to get started to do this type of videos?
Thanks Ron I appreciate that. Reach out to me on Twitter
I see him being the next justin smith
He was one of the top 10 players on my big board. Dude is an absolute animal
Another one of your great analyzing videos on my favorite team? Count me in 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
8:20 - Cervenka looks just like a KC Chef in the Super Bowl.
Loved John Lynch as a player. Now as a head guy. 49ers are going to be great for years. The man knows football...
1:45 Look at kinlaws size and physique his ability his pass rush skills I think the niners found a replica
Do one on Brandon Aiyuk
Where my notification gang at???
Everyone should be like Cole
Hey Alex, I'd love it if you revisited this video and analyze why Kinlaw didn't do too good in the 2020 season, analyzing his strengths and weaknesses on the field, similar to the Tua and Hurts videos
Things just take time, Buckner's rookie year he didn't blow up either (although it was statistically better than Kinlaw's) I'll give big K another full 16 before I make another episode on him
Awesome!
Said this when we drafted him. Buck was a beast coming out of Oregon, But Kinlaw is a little better coming out of south carolina. And with all the talent on the line... he won't be the focul point and will be able to dominate with all the focus on boca, arid and ford. And he's bigger and faster lol love buckner but i think we upgraded!
He will be great for run game and eventually develop for pass rush. We have enough elite pass rushers to be ok
better because hurd and taylor coming back from ir. hurd looked really good and jimmy g loved passing to taylor. competition in the wr room
If Kinlaw can get down to 300lbs whilst maintaining his strength and improving his speed he is going to have a really strong rookie season. He has the right coaches around him to help him work on his technique, hand placement and with Nick Bosa on the line with him, he has a technician who can show him some moves.
Your voice reminds me of the NFL history videos I used to watch.
Haha thanks! Like NFL Films?
@@AlexRollinsNFL no, there was some UA-camr who would make videos on interesting NFL moments. I don't remember his name. It was a few years back
There will never be another DBuck. No need to put that kind of pressure on the kid. Kinlaw will be his own man and game-changer. #NinerNation
One of those 'great prospect in a great situation' picks. So not only did Niners manage to sell high on Buckner and got a pick, his replacement may actually be the long term Niner. 5-7 years from now that Niner front 4 could still feature the Kinlaw and Bosa wrecking crew.
God I hope so. Team is set up if he shines
I hope so.
SEC players are just built different
Coach Kris is gonna turn this guy into a monster, He'll definitely be coached up properly
Kris is the man
Hey Alex! Great video! Are you are in the process of making a video on NYG T Andrew Thomas? I know myself and many other Giants fans would like to see your analysis of that pick
Thanks Gamerz appreciate that man. I'll probably do a Daniel Jones video before I do Thomas, 90% sure I'll get to Jones this offseason
Can we get some of o-lines plz 🙏🏽
Can you make an update on kinlaw and 2021
Buckner still is the best 99 we’ve had since Alden Smith. Kinlaw dude is a bust
Buckner after the initial contact from O lineman got stood up a lot. His almost 6'8 frame was the reason..
Love the content! Could you do AJ Terrell at some point? Opinions on him vary and id love to see your insights!
Thanks Nik I'll add it to the list
0:54 Kyle looked so much younger a couple years ago.
Peep him when he was with the Falcons, Little Kyle
He's a beast just hope he's healthy ,he's got a knee injury ,hope he'll be healthy enough.
HAHHAHAHAHAHA Kinlaw is the definition of a BUST.
I just really hope Kinlaw can stay healthy for all 16 games. Buckner played damn near every down, all the time. I believe Kinlaw will be a better power gap penetrator that beefs up the stats of his other D-lineman. Buckner had a lot of hustle but seemed to dance around a bit and use moves rather than quick power.
Hopefully kinlaw is an exceptional player the only 49ers weaknesses were obviously the very slow secondary and offensive line should have protected Garoppolo better other than that the team was
For a player with so many elite physical traits, Kinlaw's tape was much more inconsistent than expected.
-Playing style lacks control and efficiency
-Looks great but lacks technique for consistency
-High-cut and straight-legged into engagement
-Struggles to absorb down blocks and hold his ground
-Pads get turned when sliding laterally, causing loss of leverage and fit
-Inconsistent use of hands to control point of attack
-Rushes in with wild charge instead of moves and counters
-Attacks blocks with inconsistent base and balance
Kinlaw is probably going to be more effective as an individual but Buckner being more polished and a leader on the defensive line I believe is hard to discount. I don't see Armstead or Bosa being able to control the line like Buckner.
I don't think Kinlaw will be as good this year as Buckner was last year, but it took until Buckner's third year to really start to shine. By Kinlaw's third year, he may be better!
Yeah year 1 success is never easy, and you're right it took Buck some time to develop. I think what's interesting is Buckner had to be the main guy when he was drafted, whereas Kinlaw doesn't at all. It's a lot different carrying a dline instead of just being a part of one.
If it were me I would have traded armstead and tried to pair Buckner and kinlaw
Their pass rush reminds me of the pass rushers of NYG during those SB runs ... this division will be a dog fight for years to come
Noti gang
Definitely has a higher ceiling than brown.. the nfl is too late to learn to pass rush. Kinlaw is raw still so only time will tell how good he will be. He is a handful tho
I would love to see videos on basic schemes or formations. Defense or Offense, doesn't matter. Again great informative video.
Thanks Adrian, appreciate that man. Check out some of my earlier stuff from the 2019 season, might be helpful
