Not sure if posted, but an interesting read on the state of the Niners and where they should go: http://grantland.com/the-triangle/how-wed-fix-it-san-francisco-49ers-2015/

They mentioned about improving our secondary, that's fine but we need to keep our front 7 at an elite level. That's always been the strength of our defense. The young guys have to step up and make an impact now that our vets are aging and getting injured.

I was hoping it was written by Bill Barnwell but nope, Robert Mays. Barnwell seems to be the smarter stats guy and Mays the more the every man type. At lest that is how they come off from listening to there podcast.

Good call!
Now that we have Dockett and hopefully Justin comes back - drafting a DLO guy like Eddy Goldman would be sweet.
Trent seems to have dome well getting DBacks in the later rounds and we have some new guys coming off of IR so it could turn out very well.

It's a good philosophy, for sure. Front seven tends to make a big difference on DB play.

Yeah, a lot of this article seems to have been framed by national media group-think.
