49ers expressing interest in New Mexico State CB Winston Rose

Apr 25, 2016 at 2:45 PM--


The San Francisco 49ers are one of numerous teams that are expressing interest in New Mexico State CB Winston Rose, per a report by Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle.


The other teams mentioned to have interest are the Indianapolis Colts, Los Angeles Rams, New York Jets, Jacksonville Jaguars, Philadelphia Eagles, and Houston Texans.

On April 16, the 5-11 and 180-pound Rose worked out for the Rams, running a 4.38 40-yard dash and meeting with head coach Jeff Fisher. Rose had 51 total tackles, six passes defended and two tackles for loss in 2015, per sports-reference.com. He is expected to be a day-three selection.

"Nice sized defensive back best facing the action. Follows receivers across the middle of the field, has a burst to the ball and gives effort in coverage. Works to get off blocks and quickly moves up the field defending the run," says DraftInsider.net. "Tends to do more side shuffling rather than backpedaling. Average long speed."

Is 49ers QB Trey Lance getting better? And is it because of his new teacher? One expert shares his thoughts

Sometimes who is teaching is as important as what is being taught Earlier this week, when the San Francisco 49ers opened up an OTAs session to the media, most of the eyes, in person and online, were on third-year quarterback Trey Lance's new delivery. Lance, of course, had been working with QB guru, Jeff Christensen, and thanks to some leaked footage of Lance throwing with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, along with a very well-timed piece by Matt Barrows in The Athletic, there was plenty of



Trey Lance - 49ers Smokescreen, or New Paradigm Entirely?

The story of San Francisco's offseason is, has been, and will be the quarterback controversy between incumbent Brock Purdy and highly-drafted Trey Lance. Purdy, by merit of his ahead-of-schedule rehabilitation and the eight straight wins he was responsible for, is likely to enter the 2023 season as the starter. That makes Lance's role frustrating to decipher. To anyone not in the building, the dynamic playing out is clear as mud. There's no question that the standard in Santa Clara is winning. If Purdy offers the 49ers a realistic chance for a 12-13 win season and even odds should they make it back to the Super Bowl, Purdy's in. If Lance is capable of becoming a top-5 QB in this league and tilting that Super Bowl in the 49ers' favor, then he'll find a way to get out on the



Arik Armstead: 49ers can repeat as NFC West champs; Trey Lance has a bright future

San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Arik Armstead joined NFL Network's Good Morning Football on Thursday to discuss the state of the team at the start of organized team activities (OTAs). Armstead is part of a defensive line that includes NFL Defensive Player of the Year Nick Bosa and added former Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Javon Hargrave. The question that had to be asked: Does San Francisco own the best defensive line in football? "Well, on paper, I guess you could say that, but 'on paper' doesn't win any game," Armstead responded. "But we're excited about getting together and starting that journey of



49ers insider offers analysis from glimpse of Trey Lance and Sam Darnold

It's premature to draw conclusions about a quarterback based on practices in May. That is especially true when you do so based on one practice. The San Francisco 49ers started organized team activities (OTAs) this week, and all eyes were on Trey Lance and Sam Darnold. The two players are battling for that QB2 job behind last season's rookie sensation, Brock Purdy. One could even start Week 1 if Purdy is not healthy enough to do so himself. Lance is coming off a season-ending ankle injury but looks completely healthy now. Darnold is trying to turn his career around after never living up to his high draft status. Matt Barrows of The Athletic was on hand for Tuesday's practice, the only one open to reporters so far, and one that Barrows describes as a
