I just went back and looked at all four of Owen Marecic's drops from 2012, and all four were EASILY catchable. #49ers

I'm confident we will bring in a NT in the near future. Marecic can be cut at anytime to free up a roster spot. Perhaps they want to give Jerod-Eddie a shot to prove he can be the backup NT before we sign anybody. Taller than your average NT, but its all good if he can get the job done.
I think I remember Jerod-Eddie looking OK in the pre-season late in games against 2nd/3rd stringers....
Did he ever get a chance to play against first string talent? If so, did he hold up very well?

RT @MrSpazztic is it likely we see him on the field anytime soon? > RE: Owen Marecic ... On special teams, yes. On offense? Probably not

yeah I agree wait till the end of the week....we need DT help, and my mind is just going all over the place trying to figure this out.... so maybe we are trying to trade Dixon or Miller to a team that needs a starting/backup RB or starting FB....for their DT.
again, I don't know why else we would sign a fullback.

New #49ers Owen Marecic says he'll back up FB Bruce Miller and take part on special teams; "I'll do everything I can to try to contribute"

i know we can afford seymour but i am stunned we did not at least sign a cheap free agent, we just need a body behind dorsey. maybe it is to come yet this week? i am still at setting six but getting close to 7
Yeah man, Im with you on the over-reaction scale, Im probably at a 6.5 rite now but soon Imma explode if they don't do anything about it. I know its just the beginning of the week, but if you need to bring in somebody why not do it asap so he can have a feel for the scheme and learn now instead of trying to learn it in a day or two.

LOL Now we get to see Marecic and Miller run go routes all game! Seriously IMO another fullback is the pretty low on the "team needs" list.

ummm, because we have a crying need for a back up defensive tackle behind dorsey. and we already have miller. again i am calm and maybe they are setting the stage for some sort of a trade or something to get a d lineman in here

its like Harbaugh was waiting for an opportunity to sign him... we gave him a try out, but there was no room...now as soon as someone is out for the year we quickly sign him of all people?..of all positions to fill?
Did Harbaugh feel fullback is one of our issues right now? felt we could REALLY get better at that position?...to create competition? WTF?
Agreed! Well its starting to feel like Harbaugh is treating this team like a family business where you can hire your favorite nephew(s) any time you want just because your closer to him than your other nephews. It just sad that he didn't have a good relationship with Sherman and D.Baldwin, we could've use those two naughty nephews, lol.
