San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch discussed the state of the roster on a conference call Saturday. We went over the offense on Monday. Here’s how Lynch broke down the defense.
Defensive Line
The initial thought was that Street might miss the season, but he will now go on short-term injured reserve and should return around midseason. Taylor over Damontre Moore is something that I struggled to comprehend, especially considering Armstead and Thomas can play inside as well. Then again, Taylor’s versatility may have gotten him the nod.
