49ers Training Camp Injury Update: Chilo Rachal In, Nate Byham, Dontavia Bogan Out

Free agency has apparently quieted down for the evening as the 49ers are meeting with Aubrayo Franklin tomorrow. Hopefully we'll get some kind of resolution on that tomorrow. In the meantime, the 49ers are actually practicing and had their first padded practice today. The 49ers have suffered a couple injuries this weekend with Nate Byham going down hard yesterday with some kind of leg or knee injury and wide receiver Dontavia Bogan getting hurt today.

The good news is that Chilo Rachal is back on the field practicing with the first team. He was out prior to today with Coach Harbaugh saying he had something to work on. That led to a variety of speculation, but based on developments, "something to work on" seems to be code for injury issues for now. I wouldn't put it past Harbaugh to apply that to just about anything, but we'll have to wait and see. For now, it seems like it was an injury of some sort keeping him out practice.

We don't know the severity of the injuries to Byham and Bogan, although Bogan sent out a simple "Smh" tweet so that can't be a good thing. Although it will take a little time to figure out the severity of the injury, it's possible he has a good idea of how significant the injury is at this point.

While the 49ers have no problems in terms of Vernon Davis and Delanie Walker at tight end, Byham offers versatility in an H-back sort of role, as well as a blocking tight end. If he's going to miss extended time, that would be a tough blow for the 49ers depth. They brought in tight end Konrad Reuland but it remains to be seen what he brings to the table in terms of versatility.

As for Bogan's injury, the 49ers brought in four UDFA wide receivers including Bogan, Tyler Beiler, Joe Hastings and Chris Hogan. It is too early to tell what kind of impact Bogan would have had, so for now we'll just see what the rest of the UDFAs bring to the table.

love it.
Harbaugh clearly trusts his coaches to do their jobs well – he doesn’t monitor their work, he monitors Colin Kaepernick.
Alex Smith stands next to quarterbacks coach Geep Chryst. They chat and watch Harbaugh work with Kaepernick

Is Grant Cohn new to watching the Niners?

Vernon Davis must be the focal point of the offense now, since he gets a half hour to an hour of alone time with the offensive coordinator to begin each practice.

well, stay tuned, lets see if you are right.

By the way, I personally don’t have a problem with Snyder taking over center. I think he has the physical tools to do it and he is very smart.

Should be a lot of minor injuries

With no real organized activities and players not having insurance i would think the sudden jump back to full speed will lead to numerous tweaked hamstrings, twisted ankles, and sprained mcl/acl’s.

Come home to good news? NAA

not this year… well I guess Franklin is at least the possibility of good news

Harbaugh will find a QB and he will succeed.

Be great if Taylor Mays becomes "beastly" this year.

Along with Vernon Davis, Taylor Mays is also a freak of an player with his size & speed. I would think at a minimum this season the 9ers could blitz him on 3rd down to knock the crap out of Q.B.’s if nothing else.

by BigMar on Jul 31, 2011 6:09 PM PDT reply actions  

well at least we have Beast Bird

I fully expect Mays to actually be used this year. Instead of having him playing deep center field.

Harbaugh will find a QB and he will succeed.

Remember Jeff Fuller?

He was similar to Taylor Mays. The 9ers put him all over the field and let him cause Havoc!

I think he played same time as Ronnie Lott did…Do you remember Fuller?

oh thats one thing

but there are usually Pictures posted for each day of practice from someone in the 49ers organization. This guy walks around with a high quality camera and takes pics. They usually have them up within 24 hours, but we have almost none this year.

cancelled tomorrow. Hummmmm……

they wouldn't cancel practice due to injuries

that cheats the guys that are healthy…guys falll off, thats the way it is…we go w/ what we got.

Give tha guy a break...I remember losing most of our games because of mistakes by players that did not play the quarterback position.

I'm sure Norv Turner is a good judge of a good QB...even he said the guy can be good w/ quality people around him.

*safety

In any case, I don’t think he is much of an upgrade, if at all, over Goldson. And I am not a one of the guys who thinks Goldson is that good.

u may be right

but i think he’d start if we signed him…he’s an under the radar talent w/ upside (he’s 26 w/ plenty of experience)

Does it matter if he is the same or better than Goldson? I didn’t notice that we resigned Goldson. What matters is, is he better than the current starter which I thought was Reggie Smith and I would say yes since Smith couldn’t beat out Goldson and Whitner is at least as good and probably better.

I don’t know if we could afford all of them, but it wold be awesome and the defense would be improved if we could get Whitner, and Cromartie and resign Franklin. Also a nice pick up would Lofa Tatupu if he becomes available. I am just not a fan of Navarro Bowman.

by cush52 on Jul 31, 2011 8:22 PM PDT up reply actions  

yeah i'd say we're only 2-3 moves away from being better on D

but I still think we should defer to the staff to see if we got what we need to go forward….no one on here really knows how good these young guys are including the coaches and especially us fans. I’d be willing to wait till a few preseason games to see what we got…even tho by then it may be too late..who am I kidding.. we simply don’t have a choice.

I don't see the 49ers winning ANY games.

0-16. Horrible team. I feel bad for Gore, Davis and Willis. Three guys who could make another NFL squad. The rest would be lucky to play in the UFL if it wasn’t for the 49ers.

by 5e3deluxe on Jul 31, 2011 7:12 PM PDT reply actions  

Just being realistic

This team sucks and is getting worse. I feel badly for Harbaugh, too.

by 5e3deluxe on Jul 31, 2011 7:49 PM PDT up reply actions  

Agreed. I don’t think we are that bad. I do worry that we have not gotten better and we may have gotten a little worse.

Seattle improved, Arizona improved St Louis is as good and maybe slightly better.

San Fran is maybe a little better at kicker. Other than that we are worse at safety, corner, center, defensive line and possibly line backer. Wow, we have lost more guys than I thought and I don’t see any adds yet. Maybe we will add some one or we are going to need alot of rookies to step up.
