Morning Tailgate: Feb. 16

Posted by Taylor Price on February 16, 2012 – 10:12 AM

Draft talk – get used to it.

It’s going to dominate this blog (and 49ers.com) for the next few months as we lead up to the 2012 NFL Draft on Thursday, April 26.

The latest draft dialogue relating to the 49ers stems from Mel Kiper’s second mock draft of the 2012 offseason. The tenured ESPN draft analyst predicts LSU wide receiver Rueben Randle being San Francisco’s choice with the 30th overall selection in the first round.

On Wednesday, NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock said Randle could fit with the 49ers offense, adding that the LSU product could fall into the range of picks no. 20-30 in the first round.

More 49ers headlines and news on Randle, including Kiper’s thoughts on the 6-foot-4, 209-pound receiver, can be found after the jump.

49ers Put San Diego Loss to Rest

Posted by Taylor Price on December 17, 2010 – 4:31 PM

The show goes on.

Even after the 49ers lost 34-7 last night, at 5-9 with two divisional games remaining, they have not yet been eliminated from playoff contention.

St. Louis and Seattle will have to lose this weekend to keep the 49ers playoff hopes alive. But there’s a possibility that both could do just that.

Instant Analysis: 49ers 40 – Seahawks 21

Posted by Scott Kegley on December 12, 2010 – 7:14 PM

When a team forces five turnovers and does not turn the ball over on offense, that team usually wins the game.

When the quarterback has a rating of 130.9, that doesn’t hurt either.

Such was the case for the 49ers on Sunday when they outplayed the Seattle Seahawks from start to finish and left Candlestick with a 40-21 win. They now sit just one game back in the NFC West.

49ers Talk Turkey Day

Posted by Taylor Price on November 25, 2010 – 10:35 AM

The staff at 49ers.com spoke with several players this week about their favorite aspects of Thanksgiving. Here’s what they had to say.

On Thanksgiving…

TE Delanie Walker says:

“The best part is family getting together, telling old stories about when you were kids. I remember playing in a Turkey Bowl. It wasn’t with the family, but it would be the kids in my neighborhood against another neighborhood. We’d go to an elementary school, meet up and get a big football game going on. This year, my girl is going to do the cooking. Most likely, I’m going to chill. The coaches are giving us most the day off so I’m going to get off my feet. I don’t know if we’re going to have turkey this year, we might do some catfish just to do something different.”

Monday’s Locker Room Talk: Nov. 22

Posted by Taylor Price on November 22, 2010 – 5:13 PM

In his Monday press conference, Mike Singletary repeatedly took the blame for his team’s 3-7 record with six games remaining. After opening his remarks with the injuries from Sunday’s 21-0 loss to Tampa Bay, Singletary took full responsibility for the team’s performance Sunday too.

“As you look at our team, in particular as we talk about the game yesterday, why we lost the game? That would be on me.”

“Anything that happened in the game is on me because it all ultimately comes back to me. I understand that.”

Taylor Mays will be the 49ers starting safety opposite of Dashon Goldson, head coach Mike Singletary announced Monday.

The team’s second-round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft performed quite well in his first career start at Atlanta. He totaled a team-high 11 tackles and made a heads-up play recovering a blocked punt for a touchdown in the first quarter.
