Hard to explain why that might be the case, but it does appear to have some legs to it. In that case, not being able to beat out their shitty RT isn't that critical for us because he ain't gonna be playing RT for us and might just suck at that specific job.

Yeah I am excited about it, other 49ers fans comments say they didn't notice Trent Williams was out at LT and that Moore was subbed in, that is great information

Going to be VERY INTERESTING however if a premier tackle prospect falls to the Chiefs at #31 in the NFL draft, I know we need DT/DL but I wonder if we take one of the tackle prospects IF they fall (they prob won't)

Wanya moved like a totally different player at RT. It’s a harder transition than many think, especially if someone only did one side for basically their entire development.

I think he'll be solid at RT.
Hopefully he gets a chance next year...

Pretty encouraging thread after reading all of it.

I wanna go full homer and say this kid learned a lot watching Silverback and is ready to be our guy.

Keysor was also complimentary in that he essentially said his film is better than anything at LT of the past two years — above average. He affirmed that he did not see what Matt Lane saw.

Damn that's some nice reps he got there.

we just need SOLID LT play, not Willie Roaf Ogden play. SOLID.

Solid last year wins the SB. Or at least we're not blown out because Pat is so shell shocked by the end of the season.

But this looks like a great signing based on this.

I've been sick the last few days and missed all of this.

What's the deal with the contract? Dollars say he's probably the presumptive starter but why only 2 years?

It's essentially a 1 year tryout. They can get out of it after year 1.

Ah so it's just another dart throw. Not that it's a bad thing

Yea, Moore isn't keeping them from drafting another LT they love.

[htismaqe]

Get him in here and see what he has. If he pans out, they can tear up this deal after this year, right?

I actually like this move.

[Sassy Squatch]

Isn't that just typical RB shotgun alignment? They're either left or right and slightly offset or right on line with the QB most of the time.

The more time that passes, the more I like this signing. Moore likely has the highest ceiling of any available options we had this offseason, and I have no problem with how they approached it. Is the floor a little lower with him than a guy like Dan Moore? Maybe, but you're also not having to pay him 80 million dollars. With him and Kingsley on the left side, the athletic ability of our o-line is very intriguing. We're extremely young, yet experienced across the board. I think it's going to be a really interesting mix.

Really happy with the entire offseason overall, they are killing it. They might not be signing dudes with big names to satisfy the media, but they've already drastically improved this team and we haven't even hit the draft yet. I'm just loving the looks of our secondary, I think we might be on the verge of a very special group of DBs that could carry this defense.

Agree with all of this.

I’d love to get one more pass rushers in free agency then we can roll to the draft.

Overall, I think this board is pretty smart when it comes to this kind of stuff. Several people had Moore at the top of their list due to upside, cost, etc. I'm a fan.
