Dieter KurtenbachHOST
And then they didn't draft a tight end.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
And they brought in Khalil Dinkins, who they're not going to play.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
And in that you go, okay, well, why would you do that? Did you feel so comfortable with George Kittle's recovery? They'll reverse engineer to say, yes, the real issue is they didn't have a tight ends coach until after the draft.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
And Cameron Clemens, who seems like a pretty good tight ends coach to me, has been assistant there for a while.
Roddy JonesHOST
Watch out for Luke Reynolds because when he was at Penn State, he was a guy that played.
Roddy JonesHOST
He didn't play tight end in high school, but when he was at Penn State, they had Tyler Warren, they had Khalil Dinkins, and they said, look, Luke Reynolds is going to be the next one in the line of NFL tight ends.
Roddy JonesHOST
Penn State people were like, well, he never did anything.
Roddy JonesHOST
Go ahead and take him at Virginia Tech.
Larry KruegerHOST
I don't know that I feel as good as they feel about their tight end room.
Larry KruegerHOST
They do have Khalil Dinkins, and Dinkins, just seeing him on the practice field the last couple weeks, Um, Dinkins is a horse.
Larry KruegerHOST
I mean, Dinkins might be, uh, he doesn't catch the ball well at all.
Larry KruegerHOST
I mean, he really doesn't.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
We wouldn't go more than a couple days without a Jake Tonjes day at practice.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
I thought he was going to be really, really valuable for this team, and the drop-off from him to Braden Willis or Guy off the street or Khalil Dinkins is humongous.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
And so I would be looking to bring in a third tight end who you can reasonably put on the field for 25, 30 snaps a game.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
Not that you have to right now, but if that moment comes, it can't be Braden Willis.
Larry KrugerHOST
I don't know that I feel as good as they feel about their tight end room.
Larry KrugerHOST
They do have Khalil Dinkins, and Dinkins, just seeing him on the practice field the last couple weeks, Um, Dinkins is a horse.
Larry KrugerHOST
I mean, Dinkins might be, uh, he doesn't catch the ball well at all.
Larry KrugerHOST
I mean, he really doesn't.
John ChapmanHOST
Handful of guys, Kevin Givens.
John ChapmanHOST
We just talked about McKinley Jackson, Khalil Dinkins.
John ChapmanHOST
Do you want the like? I don't know what they're going to do there.
John ChapmanHOST
But what do you think about Jordan Watkins? You know, John Lynch on KMBR this morning said it's time for Jacob Cowan and Jordan Watkins to step up.
John ChapmanHOST
And then, man, where do you go after that? You've got a handful of guys, Kevin Givens.
John ChapmanHOST
We just talked about McKinley Jackson, Khalil Dinkins.
John ChapmanHOST
I don't know what they're going to do there.
John ChapmanHOST
But what do you think about Jordan Watkins? You know, John Lynch on KMBR this morning said it's time for Jacob Cowan and Jordan Watkins to step up.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
to your practice squad that's a veteran that understands this offense a little bit just in case you need him.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
You have Khalil Dinkins, but how much development does Khalil Dinkins still need coming off his time that he wasn't in training camp and had that injury? So the 49ers know if something happens now to the three tight ends they have, they don't have to go to Khalil Dinkins right away.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
If he's not developed and not ready, they can continue developing him and they could elevate Jack Stoll to their active roster.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
So this is a solid signing for the 49ers and still decisions to be made in the position.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
Now he's out.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
And now you are playing roster roulette with the bottom of it because they're not trying to bring up Khalil Dinkins to the active roster anytime soon.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
This is another position where you're like, OK, we got to keep an eye on that one.
Dieter KurtenbachHOST
Yeah, this is the NFL.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
You could probably get through the Dolphins game with Brady Willis as the third tight end, counting on Luke Farrell to make some plays from the tight end position in the passing game.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
But is this a long-term answer? And, you know, the 49ers got Khalil Dinkins on the practice squad as well.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
But Khalil Dinkins isn't exactly a threat in the receiving game as well.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
So, you know, where are they at with George Kittle as far as how many snaps do they believe he can handle in a single game? I think it's going to be very interesting.
Anthony RobertsonHOST
if they feel like his snap count's going to go up significantly over the next couple weeks, well, it might be as simple as Brayden Willis.
