Could Walt move to FS for us. Think he would make a good FS.

Negative


Dashon Goldson is just fine at FS.After a slow start he had a very good season last year:

That leaves Karl Payman and Kevin Smith as the other corners. This scares me, I hope that WALT HARRIS or DRE BLY is resigned so we can compete against the better passing teams in the league.

Or Reggie Smith move back to cornerback would be the next best option. The niners have upgraded at the OL and RS areas but cornerback is not as strong as it was last year.

I think Bly is holding out for more $$ from us or anyone that offers it. If noone does which is likely unless someone has a rash of injuries I think he'll re-sign w/us just b4 TC.

Harris although a great bargain FA signing for us a few years back is 35+ and coming off a major injury we need to move on.

I havent 4got about yall...been in arizona on the grind trainin hard...Im Back

I really hope he comes back and comes back strong..He is one of the most physical corners in the league and fits what Singletary is trying to do town to a T.I think Hima and Spencer would make for a pretty good tandem. It could help him out having someone with Mays speed behind him as well.

I heard talk all of last year that Goldson might move to SS (because he is also a good hitter) and that the Niners would go after a "cover" guy to play FS. That would make W. Harris (or N. Clements) possibilities to move to FS.
The idea behind this was to have a better cover secondary in general. Let's face it....when Michael Lewis is playing SS, the Niners are essentially playing a 3-5-3 defense. It might work well against the run but the team was hurt with the pass last year....especially against good QBs like Favre.

I think our corners are gonna have to play well & stay healthy this season.

And in a related story...I think we will win a lot of games if we can score more points than the other team.

You do realize we drafted Taylor Mays right? Im not saying he his the answer to all of our porblems but I really doubt the niers sign harris move him to FS and Goldson start at SS with Lewis and Mays as the backups at SS

It scares me that you don't know the players on our team. TIM Brown? You mean Tarell right.

Don't be too worried. Nate has something to prove and Shawntae will be ok, at least till next year. Our LBs and Safeties will help them out!

I'm hoping Bly can come back and be the 4th CB, we need experience and playmaking out of our nickel and dime backs, plus quality depth would keep us competitive, I dont wanna see Keith Smith back in the secondary trying to cover #1 and #2 receivers ever again, but we need our corners to stay healthy, an improved pass rush should make them even more effective
