This guy should never be on a roster again, Flowers is garrrrrrrbage.  There's got to be better options.

I dont think richardson has even been active on any game days, which is really unusual IMO for a 4th round lineman

not sure that bodes well for how good he has looked thus far sadly
I wonder if the Niners would trade Staley for Fowler? That would basically be like trading a 3rd or 4th rounder for Staley, since that's all we'd get for compensation once Fowler hit free agency. Then, I would sign DeMarco Murray and Matthew Dayes to fill in for Fournette and Grant.
oh [BLEEP], I forgot all about Dmarco Murray... I would have him in yesterday, dude can still play
They better do something about LT and it better be quick because you got Watt and Clowney coming up after the Cowboys. Then you have the Eagles' DL coming up after that. Watt is going to have a field day against Wells and/or Walker.
Eh, Murray retired on his own terms. If he wanted to still be playing he probably would be.

Staley is an interesting option. Another option that might be unpopular to hear around here is Kelvin Beachum.

In regards to the Kelvin Beachum idea:

I wouldn't give up a draft pick for Beachum.
Believe me, I'm not saying Beachum is good or anything, but options are THIN. There's no options on the street and extremely limited trade options. He is at least better than whatever we are about to trot out on Sunday. I mean seriously Sunday might make this place in meltdown mode with Demarcus Lawrence against our 3rd string LT. That guy my friends is an absolute beast.

And if that isn't enough guess who is after? JJ Watt who is playing lights out this year. Yikes.
Hate to be Debbie Downer but help is not on the way.
At this point, I'd probably start looking to the CFL to see if they have any serviceable LT's we could snatch. The NFL free agent pickins' are just way too lean.
Linder, norwell, shatley, cann, Parnell

We can roll with that but we have no back up after that

Has Linder ever played LT? If he has, I mean I guess at this point why not. Or are you just assuming he will be good at LT? Seems pretty wishful thinking to think you can just throw someone at a position who hasn't played it before.... but if he has.. I guess so.

I would only do this as a last resort. Fastest way to get to the QB is up the middle and could hurt our run game. I would keep linder at center.

Todd Bowles is coaching for his job. They aren't gonna get rid of their starting LT.

Who cares? I'd rather pull my own molars with a pair or dime-store pliers than watch him play LT for the Jags.
there is no way linder can just step in at LT after playing center for years.. doesnt work that way

sigh, this season is quickly going down hill
Linder at LT is our best bet imo

Are you sure?  That seems a little extreme.  Is there anyone else that we could pick up that would cause you to resort to such extreme measures, and can you record it?
