Excited to see Pearsal and Cowing in action. Cowing will win some jump balls.

[@madisonlitteral1083]

Cowing is 5'8" bro.. He's gonna be jumping for a lot of balls 😂

[@tomcarl8784]

Excited to see Cowing too but jump balls is a strange direction to take on that.

[@NicolaParise-yp7pi]

Kid is going to be a stud, along with ricky!!!

[@difference-makertraxx8515]

Cowing is better than Pearsall. You all will see!

[@samuelault4723]

If Purdy is throwing jump balls to cowing his extension will be a lot cheaper than we expect😂

[@JakeTheSnake500]

I don't think BA will hold out. If he does, we will miss his blocking, but Ricky and Jacob look poised and ready to get open and catch the football.

Thanks David!!! I saw this stat in training camp and pre season last season!!! I knew we were going to be in trouble.......and I was outraged...you know I was .....and my comments indicated that......but this season.....I am soooooooo excited about the draft pics on both sides of the ball and free agency.....I am totally confident that we have the pieces that will get us to the SB and win it if the 49ers as a whole STAY HEALTHY!!! Key word: HEALTHY! Yes I am watching workouts on all team players! And the league doesn't know the weapons the 49ers have on both sides of the ball and they are going to be soooooo Suprised!!! They are picking the Lions to go to the Super Bowl or the Eagles!!! The NFL are going to be really surprised about The 49ers who are going to pick it up from where the left off and raise their play up a notch or two!!! Can't wait to see the surprise on the faces of Sports analysts!!!!

Thx for not boasting about your expensive travels.

[@tomcarl8784]

Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be much reason to believe we have a DT that can stand up to NFL double teams again. We added Collins with a run defense grade of 44, Elliott with a run defense grade of 45, and then signed a UDFA Anderson (who is probably 1-3 years from being viable in that respect) and Shakel Brown who is also a huge craps shoot. This seems about as far away from a legitimate solution as the front office can possibly get. It’s kind of horrifying.

[@joeycastrophoto]

I love our receivers, but why do I constantly see them hopping to catch the ball even though it is in their peripheral view? Catch it on the run and keep that extra step on the DB.

[@TOdoubledizzle24]

You act like they are in week 9 of the regular season.
Relax, let them learn the game!

[@difference-makertraxx8515]

Shanny went and saw what Bobby Slowik did with Dell in Houston. Cowing and Dell are very similar in play style.

[@49ersSportsTalk]

Love the way Ricky stabs the ball with his hands; similar to Jerry. Not gonna see many, if any, body catches from this guy!

[@rymiguel1317]

I would like to know the new additions to the DL run and pass grade last season.

[@donkloos9078]

Did run defense drop in rank because teams ran proportionally more against them, or just less efficient per run? Please explain. Thanks.

[@MikelOliver-kd7js]

Boy we drafted some dawgs

[@bblackrice]

So Ricky is the 49ers Cooper Kupp.

[@juancruz7699]

He’s supposed to play as good as hookah Nacua I think I said his name right

[@spartan6005]

No more like another Donta Petis

[@jobturkey7418]

Let aiyuk play out his 5th if there’s guys come on boot him

[@spartan6005]

He looks slow and uncoordinated
