"Don't disrespect Jake Tonges like that. Did you not see his touchdown catch last game? Eh, neither did Kyle Shanahan, who didn't have time to challenge a call that could have given Tonges his fourth TD, and it was moot once Christian McCaffrey scored on the next quick-snap play. Tonges can catch, but no one in the NFL can replicate Kittle's all-around ability, including as a run blocker and hype man (pregame, during the game, after the game)."
"Draft-pick compensation is rewarded for candidates who've been employed a minimum of two years with no break in employment between teams. Robert Saleh, after four years abroad, indeed has been uplifting and inspiring in his second stint as defensive coordinator. He'll make a great head coach, if it's an opposite situation than what he had with the New York Jets, where ownership and quarterback issues plagued him."
Jake Tonges displayed receiving talent, including a touchdown catch, but lacks George Kittle's full-spectrum contributions as a receiver, run blocker and team energizer. Kittle did not practice Wednesday yet has a chance to play Sunday night and is likely to play against the Bears. Draft-pick compensation does not apply if Robert Saleh leaves because candidates must have two consecutive years of employment with no break to qualify. Saleh has been an uplifting and inspiring defensive coordinator in his second stint and could be an effective head coach. The 49ers would benefit from a pass rusher emerging in the postseason.
