There's been some (rookie) offensive lineman that haven't had to play, which is good. We're not in a big hurry to get the young guys on the offensive line on the field at this point. But our young guys are getting work. They're going to be good. They could show up at some point. |
There's been some inquiry about certain guys, but I don't anticipate that, ... The people they've inquired about are real 49ers. |
There's that possibility we will get him back. I don't know why I have a sense of being encouraged ... but I would like to have J.P. back. |
These players are not in the doghouse, |
They are just guys that if an issue needs to be discussed and a player doesn't feel comfortable coming to my office, he can go to a teammate to take it to me, ... Terry and Ahmed were both chosen by the players on this football team, and I just chose the other two. |
They did a very good job with all the mechanics, but Aaron is certainly ahead of Alex because of the style of offense he ran. Alex was doing a lot of things in the workout that he has not really done for two, three years. There was no center to come from underneath. He did take a drop and all those types of things, but it was a little different. The difference was there's a polish in Aaron at this point because he's been doing those types of things physically. |
They did not disagree that there should have been better information. |
They got T.O. after three NFC titles and felt they could fit him in. They did fit him in pretty well, but after the season things went awry. But now it looks like they're getting him back in because I haven't heard anything more. |
They said they had never coached a more hardworking practice player in their careers. |
They said they never have coached a more hard-working practice player. |
They're certainly a model for myself and I think to a lot of teams. There's a lot of things we can take from (what) they've done. |
They're north-south runners. I really like that. |
They're not a long-drive team; they're an explosive team. They're not shy. And that's Mike's personality; that's his philosophy. |
This gives us an opportunity for four first-day picks and will help our roster get better. |
This is a big step. This move in itself is going to have a positive impact on us as far as getting better. |
