Here's what's happening with your San Francisco 49ers.

This week has been defined by backlash against the Niners for reaching in the draft, and they may have

started some damage control. Kyle Shanahan was a guest on the Rich Eisen Show yesterday and took

fans behind the curtain on their decision making, and he started with how the 49ers rank their

players. I feel like I'm just always playing catch-up. You know, that's what John and his whole department, they do all year. So they got a really good idea in January when the season ends. They kind of reevaluated after all the pro days, the combine and everything. But they don't change that much because, you know, we try to base everything off the film. But there's certain things that guys can do that can hurt themselves or help themselves after that. But for me, you know, I just, I pick up that tape for the first time in February. You know, I don't usually know who the Heisman is or anything like that at that time. I've just been 100% NFL ball and it's hard to catch up with all those guys.

next February. NFL is a little bit more fun for me to watch and a little bit more what I'm used

2:21.9

to and it pertains to what we do. But the drafts everything. So you got to make sure you put all that

2:27.3

time into it. Obviously, everybody is going to have their own response to that. But I love

2:32.5

hearing about the process because I always want to
