You do know that "passing game coordinator" means that he coordinates the defensive passing game, right? Sorenson is absolutely a defensive coachETA: if down to those 3, I'd take Bullocks. Sorenson is an offensive coach (?!) and Staley had one good year as Rams DC before being a terrible head coach. Bullocks has been with SF for 7 years and has been a CB coach, DB coach, and safeties coach. He knows the players and system as well as anyone and worked under both Saleh and Ryans.
There are both are offensive and defensive passing game coordinators. I assumed he was an offensive coach since they didn't say defensive. "Passing game coordinator" usually refers to the offense, which is why I thought it was weird that they'd consider him for DC. It makes more sense now, but I still prefer Daniel Bullocks.You do know that "passing game coordinator" means that he coordinates the defensive passing game, right?

:golfclap:At least you guys finally got a Lombardi
He won't have a large role. Probably an assistant, QC, or position coach.When I advocated for new blood on the coaching staff, I didn’t mean Mick Lombardi. If he’s half as obtuse as his dad he will be an anchor.

I’m down. Good signing. Very consistentFloyd sacks the past 4 seasons:
2023: 10.5
2022: 9

Bosa has a bookend.
Relatively cheapSweet!
49ers sign former Bills edge rusher Leonard Floyd to a 2-year, $20 million deal. He had 10.5 sacks to go along with 45 pressures last season.
Floyd, 31, has recorded 370 tackles, including 63 for a loss, 122 quarterback hits, 58 sacks, two safeties, 14 passes defensed, two interceptions, a touchdown, and four forced fumbles in 121 game appearances (120 starts) over his eight NFL seasons with the Bears, Los Angeles Rams, and Bills.

The emphasis on his pass rush stats by the media and 7th round trade compensation suggests to me that he’s a major liability against the run. Which is not a great pairing with Hargrave.Now were cookin!
Schefter: Trade: the Texans are trading defensive tackle Maliek Collins to the 49ers for a 7th round pick.
Rohan:
Collins is 28 and entering his prime. Had 5 sacks in 2023 (career-high) and 48 pressures last season, and was a key to turning around that Texans DL run defense last year.
Big-time deal for the Niners.
Happy he’s staying.Schefter: 49ers and Pro-Bowl FB Kyle Juszczyk reached agreement on a restructured contract that will free up about $1.75 million against San Francisco’s salary cap.
At least 1 CBNo splash signings but we've added a few solid players so far.
Still need a corner and OL
They’ve just replaced Kinlaw and Armstead with Collins and Elliot. I think that’s at best a wash talent wise and it’s the same number of bodies. They are in the same place depth wise, just with lower cap hits.From Twitter:
Maliek Collins = pass rushing DT
Jordan Elliot = run defending DT
On known run downs, Elliot is in. On known passing downs, Collins is in.
It’s hard to replace Armstead, but one thing this will do is keep the 49ers DL fresh. Remember how gassed they were in SB?
Doubt we see any more LBs this cycle, just because we have 6 on the roster already.At least 1 CBNo splash signings but we've added a few solid players so far.

I’d like to see another LB or 2 in FA.
Hopefully Kalia Davis will actually play next season, he's probably our best run stuffing DT.They’ve just replaced Kinlaw and Armstead with Collins and Elliot.

I’m not at all impressed with Graham. He was abused after Greenlaw went down. And Achilles isn’t a quick recovery.Jalen Graham
