TODAY SportsEvery year a quarterbacks value skyrockets after he workouts with no
pads for 45 minutes. Every. Single. Year. It¡¯s clockwork. This year was never
going to be any different. With Kyler Murray now fully committed to football,
Wednesday was his turn to show the NFL what he can do. Never mind the show
Murray put on for four months during the fall.NFL Network¡¯s Bucky Brooks was
there. Here¡¯s what he said:That was the vibe from just about everyone that was
in the building. That Murray put on a show. That¡¯s despite the Cardinals brass
not being present. There was a big deal being made that the Cardinals GM &
head coach didn¡¯t go. I wouldn¡¯t read too much into that. Last year the Browns
GM John Dorsey didn¡¯t attend Baker Mayfield¡¯s Pro Day.It¡¯s becoming more and
more likely that Murray will be the number one overall selection. Vegas usually
has a good beat on these things. Here¡¯s how the betting trends have gone for
Murray. First, it was just was he going to play baseball or football. Then, it
became whether Murray would be drafted in the first round or not. Now Murray is
odds on favorite to be selected number one overall.This is great news for the
49ers. Let¡¯s say a team is in love with Nick Bosa. No, even better. Let¡¯s say
Quinnen Williams is the guy. The Lions are smitten with the DT from Alabama.
We¡¯ve seen crazier things. So landing Trey Flowers, they want to get the stud
DT. They trade up. San Francisco now likely gets an extra first round pick, can
move back and still add a pass-rush. Or the Bengals are in love with Haskins and
don¡¯t let him get out of the state. There are just so many good things that can
happen with where the 49ers currently sit. Whether Kyler goes first or not.Kyle

Willis Jersey , Steve Wilks talk about Josh Rosen¡¯s success in Week 4 The
San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday, and that means their
first look at rookie quarterback Josh Rosen. The Cardinals looked set to let
Rosen sit behind Sam Bradford learning the ropes, but Bradford was so awful, he
earned his first start last week against the Seattle Seahawks.The Cardinals
lost, but Rosen performed pretty well. He only completed 55 percent of his
passes, but his completion percentage took a hit due to drops. PFF graded his
passing near 90 (out of 100), and his adjusted completion percentage was 72
percent. If Phil Dawson doesn¡¯t miss field goals of 45 and 50 yards, the
Cardinals win this game. Of course, Seahawks kicker Sebastian Janikowski missed
field goals of 52 and 38 yards, so we can flip that narrative as well.The point
being however, Josh Rosen is not the reason this team lost. And he presents a
challenge to an inconsistent 49ers defense. They will likely be without Richard

but Adrian Colbert and Jaquiski Tartt appear on track to return.On Wednesday,
49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan and Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks both got a
chance to talk about Rosen. Shanahan met with 49ers media for his weekly
Wednesday press conference. Shanahan offered up this scouting report on Rosen¡¯s
game tape.Wilks spoke with 49ers media for the weekly Wednesday opponent
conference call. He talked about the team being close to taking the next step,
and cited Rosen doing some ¡°great things¡± to help the team improve.A rookie
quarterback is tough to sort out on a week-to-week basis, but there is one
interesting note heading into this game. Last week, the Cardinals faced the
Seahawks. This week, he gets the 49ers, which means he faces a similar defense
in Robert Saleh¡¯s scheme. There are plenty of differences, but the basic
ground-level philosophy is similar. Wilks told 49ers media on Wednesday, ¡°It¡¯s
always good when you start talking about a rookie quarterback being able to see
some of the same looks.¡±The 49ers have been very solid against the run for the
most part, ranking ninth in DVOA. However, they rank 23rd against the
pass

Garry Gilliam Jersey , coming in part because of their poor pass rush ¡ª
which ranks 24th in adjusted sack rate ¡ª and in part because of their atrocious
third down metrics. They rank in the middle of the pack on third and medium
success rate, but they rank 29th in third and long success rate, and 26th in
third and short success rate. Third down has killed this defense with
regularity, and until they find answers, this is not going to change.A rookie
quarterback can bring inconsistency, but Rosen appears like he might be turning
into an upgrade over Sam Bradford. Robert Saleh does not bring a lot of blitzes,
instead looking for his front four to get pressure. I wonder if the 49ers
defensive coordinator tries to shake things up and confuse Rosen in his second
career start. The chess match between Robert Saleh and Mike McCoy could make or
break this game.
