I honestly haven't even seen him attempt a tackle. He looks like the kid on scout team defense who doesn't want to tackle so just gets blocked and doesn't try and get involved.

yeah I don't see SF going after any of these guys tomorrow. Maybe the sign one if they don't get drafted. I think we have a couple good young DBs already.

Wish there was a pass rusher in the supplemental draft

Witherspoon had similar knocks about his tackling. What Beal does have is the speed and size to stay with pretty much anyone.

I mean he's 6 foot 178 lbs...Witherspoon has 3 inches, long ass arms, and 20 lbs on Beal.

I'm not wasting a pick on any of these guys to be honest

He's 6'1", 178, reportedly played at 188 last season. Witherspoon was 6'3", 198. Both had the exact same knocks on them coming out of college. Poor tackling, poor in run support, lack of interceptions compared to a high number of deflections.

Size and length wise he is plenty big enough to play in this scheme.

3 strengths for Sam Beal so far:

-Physical/aggressive w/good hand usage in press
-Long speed
-Finds the ball on vertical routes

3 weaknesses

-shoddy tackler (espec open field) w/ questionable angles to ball
-must get stronger
-footwork at LOS in press needs work, patience too

He's barley over 6 foot and they had him listed at 195 on his college roster...Kid is 178 lbs and it shows. His ball skills are meh. I'm more than happy with who we currently have on the team at DB.

sold listen if you haven't already

IMO he goes to the Browns (they could use that 3rd round pick they got for moving Sheldon to NE). I will say I think he's the best prospect of the bunch, just don't see SF throwing a legit pick at him.

I feel like they'd be more interested in Adonis Alexander just because of that size/length

Hey I'm not a fan of any of them personally lol....I do think his size/length is what this FO loves at CB.

SF isn't gonna go after any of them, unless it's a a UDFA (or whatever you would call them)
