Twitter: LB Rashaan Evans waived/OT Matt Waletzko activated from injured reserve

[KingintheNorth]

The 49ers get stronger at one of their strengths (defensive line).

The Cowboys get weaker at a glaring weakness (linebacker).

GM of the Year award is on its way.

Before the Jones Fan Boys weigh in, I'm not advocating for Evans. He's meh. I just don't understand the team's approach to solving roster issues.

49ers just got their *** whooped I don't think this is the day to gloat about their front office lol. Especially when Chase Young isn't even getting reps like he should lol.

When it comes to the flaws the 49ers or Cowboys have.....they won't fix them during the season. The time to fix the holes were in the offseason. Don't do anything stupid mid-season to try and fix a hole that can't be fixed at that time.

Jerry should have gotten Shaq Leonard instead of letting our arch-rival take him how does he just take the beating from the eagles every which Way around

he was always going there, he and the dbag have a history

Shaq Leonard sucks

He's still a starting caliber LB that would have been depth on the Cowboys roster.

 

[America's Cowboy]

He went to the Super Bowl.

And Quinn and his Falcons defense got shellacked after having a 23 point lead!

Teams are gonna run for 200+ yards every game from here on out. We have safeties playing LBer

exactly. Dumb move as far as linebacker depth. Walesko won't even see playing time but at least Evans was getting spot duty.

They sure did, but they still went to the Super Bowl.

Hopefully Waletzko watches the tape from Sunday and learns an important lesson - left tackles are in fact not supposed to let pass rushers literally run right by them untouched.

I couldn't believe what I was watching here from this guy. You would think the coaches would talk to him. Ummm yeah, you need to block the defensive end on every play......can you do that? No communication in that regard because he ran inside and left the DE with a clear shot reeked havoc the entire game. Head scratcher for sure that the players didn't get in his face either. If I'm Dak, I would have been pissed off. That game made Bradly Chub all world. The fins could have put any player on our LT with the same results. Good post Dr. Chicken!

The real question is when does he get injured yet again? Dude has a bad shoulder that cost him to go on IR multiple times already.

 

[gimmesix]

Yeah , he kinda sucked.

The few times we saw him last year as a rookie he looked pretty good at left tackle. We moved him to right tackle this preseason and he absolutely struggled with it. Not every player can make that move quickly or at all.

Not saying he won't suck if we have to play him, but I'd be willing to take that shot at LT over playing Edoga.

 

[jblaze2004]

We should of cut Chuma have continuedly showing he isn't mentally capable of playing LT.

 

[Mr_437]

Ms. Hutchinson is gorgeous.

He entered the league with a bum left shoulder and had to get it repaired. This year, he hurt his right shoulder. Considering he also had an ACL tear as a sophomore, he may just be one of those players whose bodies can't hold up to the violence of football. Hopefully, we've given him bionic shoulders now.

 

[Blackrain]

I'd like to believe that but I don't know why he stopped here. If he never had any intention of playing for us

 

[Rayman70]

Waletzko may sprain his shoulder getting dressed on Sunday. The guy cant stay healthy for 2 minutes.

exactly and we cut a healthy linebacker that at least provided SOME in game reps...off and on. Great , this makes total sense.

 

[gimmesix]

Edoga looked fine when we played him at guard when Tyler was out and probably is a better RT option than Waletzko, who struggled there in the preseason. We need depth at all five spots.

 

[Mr_437]

Don't really get the thinking behind cutting Evans unless Micah will be playing more MLB. Waletzko hasn't done anything (rather have Amari) and he probably won't even get to play, so he could've stayed on IR. Fehoko will be another who could stay on IR.

Can't Evans be put back on the PS since we signed him to the roster after all his activations were used up? I don't know if that restarts his activations, though. I would assume, though, even if he is re-signed to the PS that we'd have to sign him back to the 53 to use him.

We do have a linebacker on the PS we could activate, though: Buddy Johnson. Malik Jefferson is on there as well, but we used his three activations. I'm also curious if we see Durell Johnson as an end only or a linebacker. We played him at end in the preseason but he's got linebacker size and I believe that's what he played in college.
