CB Chris Culliver, South Carolina

Jim Harbaugh


CB Chris Culliver has come back from his ACL injury pretty well this year. Just what have you seen out of him these last couple weeks?


Just really competing at a high level and playing very physical, tight coverage. Got a real competitive fire, which he has always had. I just think things are really coming together for him. The health, confidence. Just everything. Tumblers coming into place. Thats what I see.

Shut down desean jackson today. he is really coming into his own. he missed a tackle or morris but his overall coverage today was on par with a top corner in this league. whole secondary really

D-Jax came into this game as the leading receiver in Yards Per Reception this season and #29 completely shut him down.

Well let's not give Culliver ALL the credit, Eric Reid was staying with him a couple times.

Well that's what a safety is supposed to do. Culliver played the technique like he had help and Reid was wonderful today. This is how our defense should work. The only time he got loose was on a crossing route where he ran all the way across the field, other than that the entire Washington passing offense was shut down and Culliver is leading the charge. At this point he's the best outside cornerback we have on the team.

And just like that, the bandwagon fills up again .

I will say I hope he is one of the free agents that we retain. I look at out group of corners and view it as having four starters between Tramaine Brock, Chris Culliver, Perrish Cox, and Dontae Johnson. It's given us a lot of flexibility considering the injuries we've had at the position. We also will be adding Keith Reaser and Kenneth Acker to the mix next season along with another late round/UDFA corner (hopefully).

If we aren't able to retain him, then we should net a decent comp pick in 2017.

Couldn't agree more..tho I think cox will get a contract from another team we will not match so maybe a 6th rd comp for him n also ward will still play cb bc Bethea is doing great.. Nooo amazing at ss..better then I imagined..mayb our best secondary player all year..

How dare you guys ever doubt CullyInTheHouse!!!!

Something about his super bowl play still doesn't convince me. Here's to hoping he's changed

couple nice plays, still a horrible tackler.

I forgot about Ward. People may not want to admit, but he has looked good as of late. I won't count him as a "starter" however. With that said, it's pretty hard to choose, but I think Cox's ability to man the slot makes me prefer him over Culliver at the moment. Considering all of the talent we have at corner now, it probably isn't likely we keep both, but who knows, maybe Baalke can work some magic.

What stands out to me is his YAC. A CB has to defend against 2 people if you think about it. QB and WR, sometimes they just make good plays and get a reception but it seems like he is keeping most of it in front of him which really has a domino effect for the rest of the secondary and gives flexibility to Fangio and the safties that they don't have to worry about his man unless schemed that way. When he does give up a completion the WR is avg 3 YAC. Not bad. Good data provided, however, it is gonna drive his price up or mean he is gone because he is on Par with the best in the league right now
