We reflect on Patrick Willis’s career and deliberate his Hall of Fame chances. Jayson Braddock joins the show to discuss his report that Colin Kaepernick is on the trading block. And finally, we assess the damage left behind by the numerous departing veterans and discuss where that leaves the roster for 2015 and beyond.
