Signed Practice Squad Players

RB Korey Sheets
FB Brit Miller
OT Alex Boone
NT Khalif Mitchell
TE JJ Finley
WR Dobson Collins
WR Dominique Zeigler

Per MM
The 49ers have signed rookie RB Kory Sheets to their practice squad.
In a bit of a surprise, the 49ers have opted to sign TE J.J. Finley to the practice squad -- not Bear Pascoe, who is now looking for work.
49ers sign 7 to practice squad: T A.Boone, WR D.Collins, TE J.J. Finley, FB B.Miller, DT K. Mitchell, RB K.Sheets and WR D.Zeigler.

Per MB
As expected, undrafted rookies Kory Sheets and Alex Boone have been placed on the 49ers' practice squad. I'll add more names as they become available ...Add fullback Brit Miller to that list, according to his agent ...Add NT Khalif Mitchell to the list, according to his agent ....

good. now he can learn how to pass protect.

good

What's that tell you? He cleared waivers. His lack of blocking and blitz pick up skills are so lacking other teams could care less about him.

Hell yes!

now everyone can stop complaining...for about 5 min

This should quiet all the Chicken Littles who called for Scot M's head after we cut Sheets.

It was just chaos

why wouldn't it. every team knows what others cut. Sheets will be snatched immediately.

No way that happens. Another team is going to pick-up Sheets.

Sheets will get picked up by some team and have an exceptional career with them... unlike Robinson who is good at picking up one or 2 yards a carry!

Exactly. Too many around here aren't understanding that there is more to being a RB in the NFL than just running the ball. Maybe he can develope these skill and make the squad someday, but as of right now, he's not ready. I'm glad he made the PS, though.

barrows just say they sign boone too

mrob is pretty good in blitz pickup from what i remember. but he's not on the field very often in that position.
