Good. He is fast but otherwise sucks.

Bethune is slow... hell he reacts slow. When someone else more athletic was finally in there, you saw the difference even more... and that was an older vet, Eric Kendricks!

I disagree, Winters was the better all around LB. Bethune is just solid against the run he sucks in coverage.

Winters was inconsistent in pass coverage. Hes had flashes. Bethune was consistently making tackles somthing Dee hasn't been able to do. I'll take a linebacker that tackles rather than one that can sub par cover

Ah yes, like Derek Smith.

An excellent trade given where Winters was drafted. Who cares if he's fast? He's constantly out of position and misses tackles. Good riddance.

We might pick up someone post draft but I doubt it's a star, a vet more likely.

Rookie class needs to be signed, we're going to want to roll over 20-25+ mil, and Aiyuk's contract needs to be resolved and worse case we lose 14mil in salary cap from that.

Add that all up and that's more than the cap space we have available.

I'd take the 14 mil cap hit now. Have it for next year.

Agreed.

Winters looked good when Warner was in. Notice how he fell off after Warner went out.

trading Dee means they have confidence in Nick Martin... good overall sign as DW wasn't a difference maker just average

its not just the missed tackles, although he got better at it

hes just not fast to react. he has all the speed in the world, but his thinking/reads are not good
