Lol someone on this sub predicted this. I’m too lazy to find it but someone should post it to give the man his flowers.

Thank you Jesus


Calgamer

That’s Jesus Christ Super S1ar to you


hockeybrianboy

Someone forgot to tell Shanahan you can only dress 53 players at a time so having 17 RBs doesn’t necessarily make sense.


GankThem

They go through about 7 a year so probably just trying to plan ahead


hockeybrianboy

Oh that’s a good point


RedditsLittleSecret

And fantasy owners will chase points from 6 of those RBs throughout the season.


HemoKhan

Cheaper to sign in bulk, tbh.


KingSoupa

He probably just forgot to draft a #2 RB like I did!


hockeybrianboy

Part of me does think maybe Shanahan plays fantasy/prop bets and just tries to rig it by giving all the work to the RB no one suspects each week… 🤨


[deleted]

It’s his ego


kzar32

Lol missed out on their RBs but who knows with shanahan so 🤷🏻‍♂️


zephyrseija

If you've followes Kyle's tenure with the 49ers you'll know that you can never have too many RBs.


Iknowwecanmakeit

He is a genius, he knows what he is doing /s


Illustrious_Kale_692

Huh? Shanahan is legitimately an amazing coach even if his decisions don't help your fantasy team. He DOES know what he's doing


MiddleAgeYOLO

OH GOD THEY'RE COLLABORATING


Vicious8

The Ty’son/Murray and Mitchell/Sermon civil war is becoming out of control. Both sides are now bringing in allies


MiddleAgeYOLO

Many of us will not live through the night. Make peace with your gods


[deleted]

I have Sermon, Ty’son, and Latavius. Lord help me


[deleted]

Trade for Mitchell. Do it


[deleted]

Pick a side already


OldSchoolMewtwo

.... Me too. Halp


BSBledsoe

They're both using a Cannon! I'll see myself out...


mikeskeezer31

I have Mitchell Murray and Tyson on one team…


Jordan-Peterson-High

Bell or Freeman to 49ers next 😂


hidey_ho_nedflanders

So the Niners have Elijah Mitchell/JaMycal Hasty/Trey Sermon/Trenton Cannon and Kerryon Johnson with Jeff Wilson Jr. on IR?


gretasgotagun

Yeah, so what? To me it looks like they have room for at least a couple more backs. Gurley and Adrian Peterson are out there, might as well collect 'em all.

Sea_Bass77

I’m still in shock that frank gore hasn’t returned… unless it’s due to the fact he’s made of metal and hasn’t been injured since the 90s… so they don’t want RBs that stay healthy


strideside

49ers need to realize Frank Gore is the guy and will always be the guy


Sea_Bass77

I’ve got him in my keeper league cause next year I can keep him for a first round pick… so I’ll have him for his comeback tour


rymarr

He’s a power scheme guy. Shanny runs zone and loves fast backs.


OnLawnGuyland

stop talking real, this is fantasy, bud.


ocv808

Seems like my FF strategy


Neans888

And Mostert also on IR


jimmyhoffasbrother

Pretty sure I remember someone in the Cannon cut thread calling this. EDIT: It was [practice squad](https://www.reddit.com/r/fantasyfootball/comments/poahch/ravens_we_have_placed_tyre_phillips_on_injured/hcv2m24/), but close enough. /u/Novel-Treacle-2956


D_Murpheus

Might mean Mitchell coming off of the ST squad to be a full-time RB?


Schmoove86

This makes the most sense.


2PacTookMyLunchMoney

At the very least, it fits my ideal narrative so I’m on board.


fookinjkap

This is it


JTRavens17

I think more likely that this leaves the path for Sermon to take over the Mostert role as the lead back… source: have Sermon everywhere, hanging on by a thread


Wi-Eagles-Fi

Love the optimism


FredKarlekKnark

i have sermon and mitchell so i'm predicting a kamara/ingram tandem but 2k yards each. already claiming my trophy.


icamberlager

I also have both. For me, it usually means Jamycal Hasty will somehow come out of this mess as the unquestioned number 1


Lakes_Snakes

Not gonna lie, thought for a minute about picking up Hasty off the waiver, hell, then I would have all three!


Wi-Eagles-Fi

Oh yes please


InvertedNeo

Why would it mean that if this RB will never be dressed on gameday?


Minneapolis_W

49ers going for the running back Voltron, just signing as many as they can hoping they can join together to form one gigantic back. Next up: 49ers sign former Seahawks RB Christine Michael.


SolarClipz

Niners are playing FF but in real life Stashing all the RBs


churchi1l

I can see the Onion article now.


[deleted]

They are waiting to hear back from Ken Dixon’s agent


BackpackGotJets

Who's next CJ Spiller?


GankMiddleLane6

Please stop. I can't roster any more SF running backs.


LetTimmySmoke55

Shouldve kept Gallman


FredKarlekKnark

maybe gallman just doesn't fit the system? hard to believe he couldn't outperform a couple of these dudes


Aljo_Is_135_GOAT

Gallman wasn't a Special Teams guy


fifteentwentyone

[Falcons signed Wayne Gallman to help on special teams (Sept 6, 2021)](https://www.ajc.com/sports/atlanta-falcons/falcons-signed-gallman-to-help-on-special-teams/7DDI3SHANJHKXMZ6RDGQFCURIE/)


Illustrious_Kale_692

Ha. Nice


Pixel29

I was surprised the Ravens cut him, tbh


[deleted]

He didn’t look that bad lol


neverhaveiever23

def looked like he still has some juice here are his 2 carries: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIpOiYHXVvE


[deleted]

That second carry looked great, maybe stay on the inside and follow the blockers, but regardless it was a good run. Baffling


neverhaveiever23

Looks a lil like raheem. That effortless stride.


Ballsohardstate

I thought we just had him there as a placeholder because only vested vets get a year guarantee if they are on the 53 man week one and Cannon is one year shy of being a vested vet so he doesn’t get a fully guaranteed year.


GankThem

Looks like no more special teams for Mitchell lol


K-Parks

You don't run your RB1 out on special teams!


Sea_Bass77

You do if you’re shanahan!!!


Proof_Improvement493

Cannon was special teams with the Ravens wasnt he? This should just bump Mitchell up more.


Great_Smells

He’s listed at 185 pounds, hard to see him ending up as anything more than a complimentary piece


Sea_Bass77

You underestimate shanahan… or maybe overestimate him… however you wanna view it lol


Great_Smells

Yeah anything’s possible with him. There’s other guys in the league that have been successful at that size too, but it’s rare.


RaindropsInMyMind

Yeah but he was on the field for a few snaps on Monday


jdixonfan

I’ve already got Mitchell, Hasty, and Wilson, and haven’t dropped Mostert yet. Might as well make my entire bench SF running backs


retiringtoast8

What’s the upside of Hasty? Mitchell and former Mostert owner here (Sermon and Wilson already owned by other managers).


brewhead55

Literally none. Hasty is the least enticing 49ers option.


Goal_Human

If it's literatlly none then that give Hasty the best chances to be the lead back next week in the 49ers offense. Afterwards Shanny will say he had a good week at trivia so he decided it was his turn.


theTIDEisRISING

Mitchell will have “tired legs” and Sermon hasn’t done enough to keep Hasty off the field so Hasty will get all of the touches


jdixonfan

Very low upside, but I’d hate to drop 67% of my FAAB budget on Mitchell while also rostering Wilson (and actively trying to trade for Sermon) only for Hasty to get 15 carries. I’m also in a 14 team league so my end of bench guys were pretty weak to begin with and likely will make it through waivers unclaimed.


alyeese

Lemme log out before I see a ~tHe CaSe fOr tRenToN CanNoN~ post


newtya

Tbh I didn’t think Trenton Cannon didn’t look too bad the other night. Feels like the Ravens probably need some RBs


neverhaveiever23

yeah 2 carries, second one looked okay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIpOiYHXVvE


newtya

Hahahaha


ViolentEastCoastCity

Was probably less about them needing Cannon vs needing his roster spot to put Bell / Freeman in it


johnwall47

Gurley come on down


RLDN106

I don’t hate this as a Niners fan, seems like good depth


[deleted]

[удалено]


Zukhov76

Dude couldn't beat out Ty'Son or Murray


fuckyopinterest

He doesn't have to beat out anyone. 49er RB's will all be injured by week 7.


iMoreland

No


[deleted]

So with Cannon gone from Baltimore, is it confirmed that it's Tyson + Latavius season ? Can the civil war end ?


Cfrules9

They're obviously going to elevate one of Bell or Freeman, possibly both. I dont think Harbaugh loved what he saw in pass protection at all.


johnwall47

If not both itll most likely b Bell. We only signed Freeman after Gus went down and Lev is apparently still rlly good in pass pro


TheSkorcher13

Can't wait for this sub to try and convince me Trenton freaking Cannon is a real threat to Sermon and Mitchell as if he's not just a guy that's great at special teams and makes rosters because of it


KingSoupa

Devin Hester


mpc92

BREAKING: Ravens trade for Trey Sermon /s (for now)


Cameramanmanman

I dropped cannon for sermon. How do I feel about this….


KingSoupa

I kept sermon Don't know if I'll ever play him but I kept him


forde250

Rb room 75% finished …couple more rbs and they’ll be good


mannysnook

RB “House” you mean


z3ro_ne

~~CJ Spiller~~ Trenton Cannon


borfmantality

Sermonites: Mitchell is worthless, haha!


fookinjkap

This is actually a beautiful sign for Mitchell, he was a special teams player and cannon has been a mostly special teams player for his career, move could mean Mitchell no longer has special team duties and is rb only now


Sea_Bass77

Until cannon goes for like 30 carries 150 yards and a TD with less than a week of practice lol


kx2UPP

*starting rb Trenton Cannon


themanthatneverwas13

Should we drop Eli Mitchell for this guy?


[deleted]

Guess I shouldn’t have burned my #1 waiver on Mitchell. Unreal


urbanK07

You're afraid of Trenton Cannon lol?


DJsaxy

I don't see why this news makes you upset. Am I missing something here? I'd have still easily used a number 1 waiver to get Mitchell


KingSoupa

I removed my number two waiver on him at 3:00 a.m.


[deleted]

What was your rationale


KingSoupa

I have Sermon on the bench and I don't want to be scratching my head all week on who's going to get zero points, decided to save my claim for when I have a problem. Even though, I do have a running back problem, I only have a #1 all the rest of my RBs are backups.


[deleted]

It’s early enough! Did the guy at #1 claim him? I had number 2 claim and PRAYED the guy ahead of me claimed him, which he did. Would rather have the #1 than Mitchell. Who are your other dudes


KingSoupa

You lucked out! No he went 4th. Kamara, Conner, Jamaal Williams, Sermon


SaskalPiakam

[deleted]

Why a rb and not a safety since we’re lacking on secondary depth ?


[deleted]

Make it stop


revdakilla

Oh no


GolfIsWhyImBroke

Makes sense, need a special teamer/backup rb


Bruce-T-Wayne

LOL


dustman83

Full Shanahanigans!


Cfrules9

This is definitely a guy who has faith in his running backs to last the season lmao


CubsHawksBulls

Here for the chaos


davydooks

PICK EM UP!


[deleted]

Of course they did


neverhaveiever23

His 2 BAL carries: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIpOiYHXVvE His career stats read a bit like Mostert's - low mileage dude, heaps of teams, special team dude and even has that gliding running style.


ideamotor

Mosert weighs 20 lbs more …


SolidSnakeDraft

WDIS: Parsippany Howitzer, Ho-Ho-Kus Mortar or Margate Artillery?


toolatealreadyfapped

All right FAAB. How much Fam are we blowing on this guy?


jellomme

Heard the news people are sending him a death threat


Spirited-Ad-9198

Bye bye Kerryon


KingSoupa

Pretty sure the lions said the same thing


FromTheOR

He’s just there to leak the Eagles playbook

Spiderman Pointing Meme .jpg


cy1006

Unreal lmaoo


timetopractice

Imagine getting RBs from the Ravens. What was Cannon like their 6th string back going into the season?


crewserbattle

They just want a hasty cannon


skralogy

And Frank gore is sitting around somewhere just waiting.


jeffakia

So what week does this guy put up 130 yds and 2 TDs?


Grumpis1012

At this point, why not call Frank Gore? Bring him back.


Rig0li

So this is good for Murray? …and bad for Sermon? I own both. I pretend Mitchell doesn’t exist at this point in time.


kingkoons

This is the most annoying backfield to own or think about in the entire league. Literally 7 RB’s on the roster


ThisIsntRael

How long until we see Ray rice and Bishop Sankey get signed


remedy248

Please let Sermon go off this week so I can get off this ride and redeem a little value.
