Trey Lance is on the hunt: 5 early observations from 49ers training camp

New York Times  

The 49ers have a scheduled day off Sunday before returning Monday for their first fully padded practice of the 2021 season. “That was successful, and we just kind of continued to roll with it.” The team didn’t do it nearly as much last season, Juszczyk said, but it seems like a counterpunch — a very heavy counterpunch — the 49ers could return to this season. At center, the 49ers list Alex Mack’s weight at 311 pounds, and rookie Aaron Banks, expected to take over at right guard this season, is around 325 pounds. It’s easy to see the top three receivers Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk have been impressive early in training camp, with Samuel consistently getting behind the defense and Aiyuk usually being the favorite target of all four quarterbacks on a given day. And he’s off to a really great start.” The 49ers could keep as many as 10 defensive linemen on the active roster.
