they must feel good with Hodges and Wilhoitte. I think we a little spoiled after having the 2 best ILBs in the league (i miss those days). With a better D-line, our ILBs will look alot better

I agree sus but Gerald Hodges will be fine next to Bowman. I just wish they would get rid of this scrub Wilhoite.

I don't understand why this team keeps drafting secondary players and neglect other positions. Is Baalke this stupid?

Again, I think it has to do with the fact that they have Hodges and Wilhoite. After all Hodges was added to the team after Wk 1 and didn't really have a chance to get an off season start with the 49ers. I think Hodges will be much much better after a full training camp next to Bowman.

I've evaluated Hodges immensely last season and he is nothing special. I just don't see the instincts to find the ball, also struggles getting off blocks. Good back up but not a front line player.

Chip: Michael Wilhoite will replace Armstrong as #49ers coverage inside linebackers. No discussion on moving Jaquiski Tartt to LB.

He can't manage a roster.
He was thrust into this position without enough experience and it collapsed.
Classic york promotion.

I think Wilhoite understands pattern matching from watching him in Fangio's scheme. My guess is Hodges doesn't, and I think that's why Wilhoite gets the nod on passing downs.

Worst case scenario is that teams find ways to iso him and Bethea...or that JoN is comfortable with those matchups moving forward
