Tonight, I'm still in a bit of shock that Poles signed KA. This guy is a monster upgrade over Mooney. And I'm thinking we still could see a WR added in the draft. It's a bit stunning to watch a GM who so skillfully pulled off the PERFECT tank year - that set the table for us getting the #1 quarterback in this draft class... a draft class that looks stacked with some studs at QB. We get the best of the best.
I am stunned. I can't remember a GM who has been this successful at building offense (essentially in 2 seasons, after the tank year). We are in for a real treat this year watching Keenan and DJ together with Gerald Everette paired with Kmet - and Caleb Williams slinging the rock. How cool is that?
It's spring and I'm pumped. Can't wait for the draft to finalize the big question and then training camp. It's gonna be a wild spring/summer around here.

Could be very cool! But, it hasn’t happened yet and until we make CW our pick, I’m not going to get my heart set on it happening. I’ll be 66 in a few days and have had far too many upsets with the Bears.
Jim Harbaugh admits the Bears got the better of them on the Keenan Allen deal. Sounds like Ryan Poles schooled them bigtime.

I wouldn't say he schooled him. Harbaugh needed to get rid of a few big cap hits. They lost both of their WRs. Thing is, Harbaugh scheme doesn't really require big name WR's. Just look at his 49er years.
In fact, I don't see Chargers going for a WR at #5. I see them going OT or TE at that pick.

This is what happens when a franchise can't manage the financial part of the team. People get your best players due to the fact you can't afford to keep them. I am so glad that we have a guy in Ryan Poles who understands this and can fleece people like Jim Harbaugh of one of his best players. Harbaugh admitted today that Poles got the better of him.

Harbaugh had Michael Crabtree, Anquon Boldin & Vernon Davis (arguably best receiving TE at the time)

I never said Harbaugh was against TEs. His WR's were never a top 5 WR group. Roman is the same way as an OC.
