Picking up on trends at San Fran’s summer sessions

Camp Implications

Ten things that 2017 training camp has been telling us about the 49ers:

LIGHTER AND FASTER: San Francisco’s new coaching staff asked several key players during the offseason to lose weight and thus get in better shape before the start of training camp. Under the direction of head strength and conditioning coach Ray Wright and his assistant Marquis Johnson, that mission was accomplished in several areas of the roster, adding quickness to the entire team in general. Lead running back Carlos Hyde came in at 228 pounds, “the lightest I’ve ever played since high school,” he said, giving Hyde the opportunity to “show off some new speed.” The team’s largest player, offensive tackle Trent Brown, came in under his coach-mandated target weight of 358 pounds. “I definitely feel better out there as far as the movements required of me,” Brown said. Edge linebacker Aaron Lynch, overweight and out of shape during his disappointing 2016 season, also came in under his target weight of 273 pounds. “The lighter the better, man,” linebacker Ahmad Brooks said. “The lighter you are, the faster you can play, and the longer you can play out there.”

Making the right choice at QB

In the weeks that follow after you read this — and perhaps sometime even sooner than that — Kyle Shanahan and the rest of the 49ers organization will make a titanic decision that will have present, future and perhaps even everlasting implications for the franchise. It will chart the course for the team’s pivotal 2021 season while determining whether San Francisco really does have the juice to return to powerhouse status and again be considered a legitimate contender to get back to the Super Bowl.

TOP 10 Linebacker seasons

Fred Warner vaulted to stardom with a spectacular 2020 season — and the 49ers rewarded him this summer with a $95.225 million deal that makes him the highest-paid inside linebacker in NFL history. By today’s standards, Warner’s performance last year was worth the money as he posted an Approximate Value of 19 — matching the highest score ever recorded by a San Francisco defender according to a Pro Football Reference formula that puts a single number on each player-season across all positions since 1960. Patrick Willis and NaVorro Bowman (twice) also had seasons with an AV of 19 as they dominate this list of the greatest individual seasons by a linebacker in 49ers history.
