*Projected* Niners Depth Chart (Updated 9/5/09)

Nice job, I pretty much agree with everything but I think Marcus Hudson will make the team and Snyder will be the top backup at both OT spots and I don't see Barry Sims making the team. I also think Ahmad Brooks will make it over Jay Moore but that could go either way.

Why is Jimmy Williams in there?
hes already been cut

thats why we have Curtis Taylor

Sheets makes the roster, so do Boone and Brooks. Hill and Battle both somehow survive at WR.

I want to bump this because now I hope spurlock makes the team

I really hope that we don't keep 4 QBs. Not sure why Huard is getting playing time, when we have a rookie to develop.

Hill is the starter, Smith and Huard are fighting to see who is #2 and who is unemployed, because Davis is not PS squad material, he would be lost to another team as soon as the first couple of QBs get injured this season.

do you really believe that?

Using Geek's since I agreed with most of it. I only have a few differences

53 Man Roster

QB: Hill/Smith/Huard/Davis I don't think we risk putting Davis on PS, I'd preferrably cut Huard but I think we go with 4
RB: Gore/Coffee/Sheets/Robinson
FB: Norris
TE: Davis/Pascoe/Walker

WR: Morgan/Crabtree
WR: Bruce/Jones
WR: Hill/Spurlock (I'm not completely sold on Hill since he is always nicked up but I think we keep him since he's young)

LT: Staley/Boone
LG: Baas/Wragge
OC: Heitmann/Wallace
RG: Rachal
RT: Snyder/Smith

DE: Smith/Balmer
NT: Franklin
DE: Sopoaga/Evans/RJF

ILB: Spikes/McKillop
OLB: Haralson/Brooks

CB: Clements/Spencer
CB: Bly/Brown/Hudson

i notice that curtis taylor has the potential to be a good safety. he has size, speed, and great awareness but he plays as if he doesnt have any ! he dives for the legs (and misses) and seems scared to hit in general. i could see the niners taking 4 QB's into the regular season if taylor continues to play like this

What about Brooks at OLB, Moore goes to the PS. I think we put Miller on the PS. I have a feeling Hudosn makes the 53. Roman will lose his spot to Smith. I'm with you I think Boone will make it. WR's....Morgan, Crabtree, Bruce, Spurlock, Hill, and Jones - w/ Zeigler back on the PS. If we can stash N Davis to the PS so be it, if he gets plucked by another team I wont cry.

No Sheets or Hudson eh?
I think they both make it
Boone over Bender
Brooks over Moore
and i doubt Zeig, Spurlock and Hill all make it, maybe two of those three
I like that you have Taylor in there, I hope we dont try to PS him, he will get snagged
I think we can sneak Miller on the PS though, and just have Mo as the FB with Robinson able to back him up

Be prepared, I'm going wild (well, not too wild) with a couple of surprise cuts. This will be edited after the 3rd Pre-season game and left after that point.


3 Quarterbacks: Hill, Smith, Huard

5 Runningbacks: Gore, Coffee, Robinson, Sheets, Norris

6 Receivers: Bruce, Morgan, Crabtree, Battle, B.Jones, M.Spurlock

3 Tight Ends: Davis, D.Walker, Pascoe

9 Offensive Line: Heitmann, C.Wallace, Staley, M.Smith, Snyder(T/G), Boone, Baas, Rachal, Wragge

6 Defensive Line: J.Smith, Balmer, D.Evans, Sopoaga, Franklin, Jean-Francois

4 Outside Linebackers: Lawson, Haralson, M.Harris, J.Moore

4 Inside Linebackers: Willis, McKillop, Spikes, Ulbrich

5 Corners: Clements, Spencer, Brown, Bly, Rossum

5 Safeties: Goldson, R.Smith, M.Lewis, M.Roman, M.Hudson (S/CB)

3 Special Teamers: Nedney, Andy Lee, Brian Jennings


IR - R.McDonald, W.Harris

--------------------------------------------

Unless Nate Davis shines at some point in the rest of the pre-season, I just don't see there being enough room for him. Huard is an experience vet who can win. I really don't want to cut Nate though.. I think he has potential.

While I like Jason Hill, I get the feeling that (at this point, at least) the team likes Spurlock much more. Spurlock seems to be not only faster on the field, but he's also more versatile.

It might be tough cutting Brit Miller. If we think another team with take him, we may not do it. Norris might only have a year or two left, and if the first pre-season is any indication of what Brit could do at FB.. he needs to be kept. I wouldn't be that surprised if we pulled a shocker and went younger, keeping Miller and ousting Norris or Robinson.

I think Moore beats out Brooks. Moore was the only person I saw getting any pressure on Friday. Brooks was stone-walled.

I doubt we will keep only 9 OL's and 5 CB's since Rossum doesn't really play CB all that much. Meanwhile, you keep 6 WR's when tradionally we only keep 5. Other than that, you are pretty spot on.
