The San Francisco 49ers made every other daring transfer and took benefit of the fireplace sale happening in Washington as they’ve bought former No. 2 general pick out Chase Younger. San Francisco traded for former Broncos and Cowboys defensive finish Randy Gregory previous this month and continues so as to add go rushers to the roster.
After a dominating rookie marketing campaign in 2020, the place Younger recorded 7.5 sacks, gained Defensive Rookie of the Yr honors, and used to be a Professional Bowl variety, the following two years had been plagued by way of damage. Chase performed in simply 12 video games throughout the ‘21 & 22 seasons blended.
To this point this 12 months, Younger seems again heading in the right direction, enjoying in seven video games for Washington with 5 sacks. Going to the 49ers must provide much more alternatives for Younger to turn what he can do on that San Francisco defensive position. It additionally is sensible for the Niners, who’ve struggled in October, shedding 3 in a row, together with a foul 31-17 loss to Cincinnati on Sunday.
They’ve appeared like a distinct crew up to now few weeks. It’s like they’ve forgotten easy methods to play Niner soccer. The offense hasn’t performed their highest, however the protection, which is in most cases this crew’s saving grace, has been out of sync. Secondary problems at the again finish and no longer getting house as a lot up entrance, amongst different issues, have hampered SF just lately. Including Younger to an already top-notch D-line must assist get them getting into the best path.
In a question of a few weeks, the 49ers have long past from combating for the No. 1 spot within the N.F.C. to 2d position of their department and 5th within the convention. Whilst they nonetheless really feel like the easier crew than Seattle and Dallas (each are forward of SF these days), their document and present product at the box say differently. And we all know what the nice Invoice Parcells famously stated. “You’re what your document says you’re.” Consistent with the closing 3 weeks, San Francisco’s document says they’ve long past M.I.A.
