Mike Evans will likely have a bigger positive impact on the 49ers than Myles Garrett has on the Rams.
It’s simple logic. LA already had a top-8 pass rush win rate last year and wasn’t deficient at DE. Jared Verse is an upper-tier player.
Meanwhile, SF was very deficient at WR — particularly the X, a spot that’ll trigger compounding returns in Shanahan’s offense.
The Rams’ pass rush should be better. The 49ers’ WR corps can be transformed.
All additions happen in the context of a team sport
Aaron Donald is “more likely than not” to unretire soon and sign with the Rams on a 1-year deal to join Myles Garrett, per @AdamSchefter.
Los Angeles will now have the two greatest defensive linemen of the modern era alongside each other.
Yeah it’s a missed call, a flagrant 1 and all that. But every Wemby incident from the Naz elbow, to the Dort shove, to this has been Wemby letting opponents know if you try to play him too physically you might get hit with the Shaolin fists of fury and I honestly gotta respect it
