Released by the Lions, didn't watch much of him last year but when he was on the Jets and Giants he was a beast, great run stopper, I think these are the type of player niners have a chance to sign, I'd take him as rotational help and especially if AA is not signed.

Weird how people don't see this value. Maybe he helps on the 4th. and 1's dat Baltimore, Seattle, Atl. and Chiefs (all losses) converted so effortlessly!..

I get that he is a plugged. Would not mind if he was in the rotation on run downs. He can command double teams and is excellent against the run, as long as he is not paid a crazy amount.

EXACTLY!!

Huh? DJ Jones is a good fit for this scheme. Explosive and squatty penetrating nose. That's what they're looking for.

Street was awful and should've never been moved to the interior. Not sure why you bring him up. He was terrible this year.

Taylor is a borderline freak athlete. He can literally play in any scheme.

Did these penetrators help on ANY 4th. and 1's converted by Seattle, Atl. Chiefs, or Ravens(all loses) and BOTH Cardinal games (should've lost)when Drake and Murray ran amuck ?- when a stuffer could've helped ?? Or when our run defense started falling off down the stretch? I get your argument, but you're not seeing anybody elses. Touche'

Do you understand that isn't my criteria? I didn't make this up. This isn't subjective. These are facts. I'm literally relaying to you what the team wants in a nose tackle, what the 49ers want. Not what you or I want. What the 49ers want. This is what the scheme requires.

This isn't Madden. There's a reason they want a penetrating nose from a shaded 2tech. Here are the facts from Andre Fluellen, former NFL DT who played for Kocurek in Detroit.

1) So another really important position is the 2tech (playing either head up on the guard or shaded inside). In all actuality, the 2texh needs the be the most explosive interior player, the 3tech needs to have a little more balance & control. Here is why...

2) playing a 1T puts alot of stress on the LB that may have the b gap, because there is ALOT of distance between the 1t and the 5t (defensive end). Playing the 2T (or 2i) helps balance out the integrity of the defense...

3) so the 2tech has to be EXTREMELY quick because he's almost at a disadvantage to the offensive guard to get cut out of his gap. So it's all one gap, no reading or 2 gapping! In the words of Kris Kocurek "read is a 4 letter word!"

Again , I see your argument, but my point (and the point of almost all others on this post) is that it wouldn't be bad to have him as a rotational backup player that can offer a physical presence we need sometimes. An OPTION, not the be all, end all. I'm grown enough to agree to disagree with you w/o being disagreeable or butt hurt (as all the stats you just posted above attest to, yet and still don't answer the questions I proposed of the games listed, but I digress). At the end of the day its opinion. As far as Madden, you're right it's not, and too bad b'cuzz we're probably not gonna keep AA, (considering Buckner has to be extended). Every lil bit can help..
