Let’s get to the links ... Matt Milano, LB — Best scheme fit: Eagles | 2020 team: Bills | Age: 27 — Milano would be an upgrade at linebacker in Philadelphia, and the traits are there to play a three-down role for the Eagles. He can be schemed as a rusher off pressures (3.5 sacks last season), and he will play off-contact to find the ball in the run game, too. Plus, with the ability to drop in coverage, and move in space, Milano can match in zone coverage or close windows as an underneath hook defender in sub packages. [BLG Note: ESPN also has Andy Dalton and Malik Hooker as perfect fi...

I highly recommend you listen to the entire podcast but I transcribed some of the conversation for you to read below. PASS ON TAKING A QB? COOPER: Yeah, I mean, we wouldn’t really advocate for taking a quarterback at six. Eagles fans are probably a little bit bitter about that, going after what you guys did last year with [taking] Hurts. But you have to look at it, there’s a lot of good talent at the top for quarterback. If a team really falls in love with somebody, at that point you really have to do what’s best for the team.

In a business like this, where the receipts are posted for all the world to see, we especially like to be right. Unfortunately, in sports and life, that is often not the case. However, rather than run from our failures, we’re embracing them. Here, and in today’s Niners Nation Shanaplan Podcast with Kyle Posey and Akash Anavarathan, we’re looking back at where we went wrong with our 2020 Bold Predictions. The Cowboys Rivalry Returns in 2020 Oof. Where to begin on this one. Instea...

Photo by Michael Zagaris/San Francisco 49ers/Getty Images When Jim Harbaugh was the coach of the 49ers, he had a mantra printed on a wall at 49ers headquarters. “You either get better, or you get worse. You never stay the same.” While Harbaugh may be long gone, that philosophy is common in the 49ers’ locker room and all across the league. Certainly, George Kittle believes it, and he recently told the Chris Simms Unbuttoned podcast exactly where he wants to be better in 2021. “I would like to get better at the longer-distanced routes, some longer-distanced third-down stuff, just getti...
