I hope he takes a big step forward and I think he might.

No, he pushed back a rookie FA who should have been as high as a 2nd rounder, but wasn't due to off field issues. A guy listed at 6'7" 328 lbs.
It was just one play, early in TC, but still a nice little statement by Balmer.
Hope there's alot more of those kinds of statements to come!

Does this mean he should hold out too?

Nah... Parker is an amateur. While he is trying to move a guy up 3 slots on the pay scale we're attempting a five round jump. lol

Excellent point. Perhaps Mr. Crabtree should contact you. (Bet a deal would get done faster.)

Hope we keep hearing good things about Balmer. Good to see the work with Justin Smith may just pay off

the way alex boone was handling those guys, he probably let his gaurd down for one play thinking that balmer wouldn't explode like he did....I bet it doesn't happen again...if it does...it means balmer is doing something right!

the learning curve for a rookie changes for the better for those second year players, as said by many, thats when the players really show improvement...

There are a couple of guys who I think have retard strength on the 49ers roster.
Chilo and Kentwan. I got a feeling both of these guys are going to shine sooner than later.

In T. Spikes interview with Fitz and Brooks, he compared K. Balmer's speed off the snap to Cortez Kennedy, Warren Sapp, and another famous player. Spikes is really high on Balmer and sees a big year for him. I thought that was pretty positive to say from someon who is as upfront as Spikes is.
