Who will return kicks and punts for the 49ers in 2026?

It does not appear that the San Francisco 49ers are bringing back their returners from 2025. Once Skyy Moore was brought into the fold and the team realized Isaac Guerendo wasn’t the answer, Brian Robinson Jr. began to return kicks. Moore finished 15th in kickoff return average and 10th in punt return average. He had […]

How has the hit rate been for the 49ers in each round of the NFL Draft?

Rob Lowder and I went through each draft pick under the current regime for the San Francisco 49ers in each round to determine whether they were a hit or a miss. It goes without saying that these are subjective. We used playing time, contracts, impact, and longevity as qualifiers. There’s the human element, so we […]

NFL prepping for replacement refs: What’s the worst call ever against the 49ers?

ESPN’s Kevin Seifert said the NFL is “laying groundwork for hiring replacement officials this season.” This wouldn’t be the first time the league did this.

Brandon Aiyuk’s contract may be preventing any move by the 49ers

Once upon a time, the 49ers were waiting until the league year began before they released—or possibly traded—Brandon Aiyuk. We live in a different world now, one where Aiyuk, without any guaranteed money left on his contract, remains on the 49ers with no end in sight. As you might guess, many are wondering what the […]

Golden Nuggets: What a gorgeous Friday to extend the 49ers’ best player

49ers to host Texas A&M WR KC Concepcion on pre-draft visit “For his career, 1,232 of Concepcion’s receiving yards have come after the catch, according to Pro Football Focus.

At wide receiver, the 49ers brought in Mike Evans and Christian Kirk, who […]

The 49ers had to up their original offer for Osa Odighizuwa

Once the Dallas Cowboys invested in Quinnen Williams and Kenny Clark, Osa Odighizuwa became expendable in their eyes. Ahead of the San Francisco 49ers trading for a star interior pass rusher, there were reports of teams monitoring Odighizuwa for a trade. On Wednesday, ESPN went through each team’s free agency, and in the Cowboys section, […]
