Report: Rams were interested in 49ers top 2026 draft pick
The San Francisco 49ers drew opinions earlier this offseason when they took Ole Miss wide receiver De’Zhaun Stribling with the No. 33 pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, with analysts perceiving the pick as a slight reach, given that he was a consensus late second-rounder. However, several reports came out following the draft that Stribling […]

49ers News: All I want for my birthday is for the Niners to sign a lineman
I don’t care which side of the ball. I don’t care if it’s interior or exterior. I don’t care if it’s a free agent or via trade. I don’t care if they’re better at pass rush, pass pro, run blocking, or run defense. We just need more DUDES! Rant over. On to the links… Schefter […]
