It also presumes a trade to get that 2nd rd pick.
im not shy about drafting interior lineman in the 2nd, if powers-Johnson really is the a difference maker, use the 2nd rd pick
I do wonder what the positive news about Eberflus really was, were there any qualifiers to Eberflus's retention like beat GB or don't embarrass us in the rest of the games or keep improving? Win 50% of your remaining games? or was it just good ol feely stuff like "we like Eberflus and see him as our leader"?
I feel like Poles may just look at the 7 wins as a step in the process, and put more of an onus on next years performance for major changes outside of QB. What I expect is
Flus stays, Getsy stays, Fields traded
Why? Doesn’t Poles himself meet that qualification? (At least I thought GM was also subject to it, but may not replace the coaching mandate, but in any event, Harbaugh could bring in a minority OC and cover the issue)
