NBC Sports NFL analyst Chris Simms sat down with '49ers Talk' co-host Jennifer Lee Chan to discuss how his friend Kyle Shanahan and the San Francisco 49ers' front office can approach the offseason with a slew of significant league-wide checkpoints coming up. Simms also shares the origin of his bond with Shanahan as teammates and then friends in college at Texas, and how he knew Shanahan would be a successful coach early in his career. Matt Maiocco also joins Jennifer to discuss which areas San Francisco might address in free agency or through the draft and which prospects might fit the bill.
