@Coach_Yac I dont think Brock or the team cares at all about these lists honestly. At some point, its about using your eyes and assessing for yourself what you think about the guy. Despite my fandom, I think Brock is a hell of a player. Where he ranks... statistically he's up among the best

Brock Purdy was NOT voted as a Top-10 QB by NFL coaches, executives and scouts Brock was listed under honorable mentions An NFC executive said: “He’s got two superpowers. Layering the ball and short-area quickness to stay alive. He’s elite in those two areas.” Thoughts? 🤔

@49ersSportsTalk He was a really good receiver. Great route runner, excellent blocker, and his game was growing. That said, at just over 6 feet and never a speed threat down the field, he wasnt a true #1 receiver. A really good #2 though

I want to see something and answer honestly: TRUE or False - Brandon Aiyuk at his peak is worth $30M per season?

@TheSports_Shift Rick Mirer

@Coach_Yac Yeah, for all the things to cheap out on, I've never understood saving on grass. You should always invest in your own grass for your players 😎

George Kittle on NFL teams willing to use grass for World Cup games, but not for their own players

@Coach_Yac His stick alone warrants more playing time. Honestly, he is making a return of Heliot Ramos look obsolete. Not sure how much value he has in a package, Ramos that is, but I wouldnt mind an OF of Bericoto, Cox, and Lee the rest of the way. Bo Davidson is waiting in the wings too

VICTOR BERICOTO JUST CALLED GAME!!

@o0hype0o @Coach_Yac Yep. And George was supportive of BA for a long time too. I think where it went sideways for George and the other vets/captains was when BA stopped showing up for rehab at the team facility, and essentially quit trying to come back from his injury last July

@Coach_Yac Damn, if Kittle of all people is saying this about you, it's not a good look as it's extremely rare he says anything negative especially about a teammate (thankfully, a soon to be ex-teammate though).

It’s obvious that George Kittle is tired of Brandon Aiyuk’s shit 💀

@LosDLF_ @Coach_Yac @sportslarryk @BNightengale *don't miss

@Coach_Yac @sportslarryk @BNightengale You know how you move offan insane contract. You never give it in the 1st place. Im so thankful many of these pro sports gms are not financial advisors to the public with their 80% miss ratio on long term deals.

The Giants are hoping to move Matt Chapman, Robbie Ray and Luis Arraez by the trade deadline, per @BNightengale They’re pessimistic about the odds of trading Rafael Devers and Willy Adames due to their insane contracts

@LosDLF_ @Coach_Yac @sportslarryk @BNightengale For sure. Problem is the sport itself is set up in a way that forces you to spend at some point. Uts not like the Yankees and Dodgers miss as well, and miss INCREDIBLY at times, but they are rich enough to overcome it, and their farms are ALWAYS stocked up with premium talent too

@Graham_SFN Agreed. I also thought he looked strong in camp, like he'd been putting in work during and after the draft process, which is good to see 👍

I’ll be honest, I don’t think people really understand what Romello Height brings as a pure pass rusher I believe he has 8+ sack potential as a rookie

@Coach_Yac I think that Nick is forgetting how much the 49ers hate to set a bad precedence. If you give in to a disgruntled player, and not even an active disgruntled player, what stops future players from trying to do the same things to get released...

Nick Wagoner believes the 49ers should have released Brandon Aiyuk several months ago: “I personally think they should have done it in March and just been over it because you don’t have to deal with the social media videos and whatever else. Maybe the 49ers just don’t care. It doesn’t seem like they do care all that much, but I think sometimes it’s better to just move on and be done with it.” I disagree with this. I love the pettiness by the team. Let the mf stay mad for as long as possible. Looking forward to his next crash out on his IG page

@_BodEagle @BontaHill Yeah.. hard to argue that right now. Vitello was more accomplished, even if it was at the collegiate level, but yeah, its a very flawed roster combined with a manager who isnt going to get you 5-8 more wins lets say with his ability

@BontaHill Reminds me of the Jim Tomsula 49ers. Vitello gives off the same vibe.

This is a bad baseball team. The Nationals are treating the #SFGiants like a junior varsity team. This is flat-out embarrassing.

@831Goonie @SFGiants @OracleParkSF @NBCSGiants @KNBR @CocaCola At least he has Lee hitting in front of him. Good chance he'll be hitting with traffic on the basepaths multiple times today 👍

@MarkZuckerman When you are 12 games under, even if you're not, but especially if you are, you leave your starter in there for the 9th. Its over-managing 2026

And Daylen Lile has given the Nats a 4-3 lead with a 2-out single to center in the top of the 9th. They're booing Tony Vitello as he comes to the mound to remove closer Keaton Winn.

Good for Chappy 👍👏👏👏

@Coach_Yac Its got the potential to be really special. I'd still probably swap out Brown for Sigle. Make Marques the FS with Mustapha at SS. Other than that, its a much deeper and more interesting group than it was the last 2 years, no doubt about that

True or False: The 49ers have a Top-10 defense

@Coach_Yac This dude is going to wreak HAVOC on opposing quarterbacks. Great signing!

Kyle Shanahan on Osa Odighizuwa: “One of the best leaders on the team so far.”

@The_Margrave44 @Coach_Yac Hey, you never know, he still has time, provided good health of course. Regardless, he's outplayed his 5th round slot for sure at this point, and he's had to work for everything he's gotten, and for that the Faithful should all be appreciative to have this guy on our side

@Coach_Yac That’s a great answer. I think it’s time for the Faithful to embrace Colton McKivitz. Not a HOF’er, but pretty solid.

Colton McKivitz was asked if there are any regrets in signing a contract extension rather than testing free agency: “No, not one. My goal never was to be the highest paid. Obviously you’re in the NFL and money’s the main thing. We all want to get paid and have generational wealth… With the contract I was offered and honestly I don’t want to leave here. Obviously being cut I got some scars there, but to be cut, be a draft pick here, a gold helmet guy— whatever that means, but there was a reason why I was drafted here, why I was cut here, why I still play here and now I have had 3 good seasons starting and going into the 4th. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side. I saw a lot of guys not get paid in free agency this year. I like it here and I want to be on that 10 year wall.”

@Coach_Yac Wise beyond his years. Wish more skill position players would adopt this level of humility

@NBCSGiants Disappointing. Feels like the same movie, different year, since 2017 (2021 being the outlier). Getting shut out 8 times in 54 games, 3.46 runs/game, Chapman and Adames taking almost two months to find a good swing (Chapman still searching for it consistently), and Webb hurt/bad

What is your Giants takeaway at the one-third mark of the season? (➡️ Toyota NorCal Dealers)
