49ers’ Christian McCaffrey shows off recovery progress with vacation pics
“The 49ers star recently shared vacation photos on Instagram, which included glimpses of his recovery progress.”
“He’s a teacher and he’s going to give you his thoughts, but the beauty with him is he’s not afraid to have those heated conversations to try to get across what he’s trying to get across,” Saleh said of Shanahan in March. “But also, the respect to give you the leeway to make the best decisions for what you think needs to get done. He will challenge you. And when he challenges you with conviction, you’ll know it.”
PFN 7-round mock draft has 49ers adding ‘terrifying’ pass rusher
“Nic Scourton isn’t perfect, but nobody else in this class possesses his blend of technical prowess, bend, size, and power,” Cannata wrote. “He’s playing too heavy right now, but losing the unnecessary weight he’s currently carrying on his frame should only make him more dangerous as an arc rusher.
“Scourton’s pass-rush plan is artwork, and the suddenness and fluidity he already plays with at 280 is terrifying. He’ll be one of the youngest players in the class while already possessing nuance far beyond his years.”
“I’m getting the impression that Brandon Staley, who was considered the only internal candidate for the 49ers’ defensive coordinator job—that’s what Shanahan said on the Wednesday after the season—I’m hearing that he probably will not be back with the 49ers as, basically, Robert Saleh comes in,” Maiocco stated on his YouTube channel. “He’s going to be, in essence, the head coach of the defense. He’s going to run that defense.
“And so, Brandon Staley, doesn’t appear as if he’ll be back with the 49ers.”
FUN WITH WORDS: Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo
“The sentence employs three distinct meanings of the word buffalo:
- As an attributive noun (acting as an adjective) to refer to a specific place named Buffalo, such as the city of Buffalo, New York;
- As the verb to buffalo, meaning (in American English[1][2]) “to bully, harass, or intimidate” or “to baffle”; and
- As a noun to refer to the animal (either the true buffalo or the bison). The plural is also buffalo.
A semantically equivalent form preserving the original word order is: “Buffalonian bison whom other Buffalonian bison bully also bully Buffalonian bison.”
