2011 Safety Depth??? | Page 2 | 49ers Webzone Forum

Butter · 2011-07-27T12:54:29-07:00

Dashon Goldson wants a major raise, but if the Niners let him walk, can they fill the position inhouse or do they need to sign a vet FA? The Niners current safety depth chart shows: Smith, Reggie Mays, Taylor Maragos, Chris Jones, Colin Taylor, Curtis Rotoworld is currently showing the depth chart to look like: FS 1. Reggie Smith 2. Chris Maragos 3. C.J. Spillman SS 1. Taylor Mays 2. Curtis Taylor 3. Colin Jones In addition the Niners could consider moving rookie Culliver, Chris or even Clements over to safety. With needs along the Oline, Dline, CB, and several others, I don't see how the Niners can drop a big chunk of their $$$ on Goldson. [ Edited by Butter on Jul 27, 2011 at 13:31:39 ]

That is an ugly looking secondary. Yikes!!!!

I guess the days of Lott, Hanks, McDonald and others have long abandoned us.

Good point. But, if Asomugha is added, then our safeties suddenly don't look so bad. It's a pipe dream, but...

If Fangio is truly an upgrade at DC, many fans will be making many comments all year like, " wow, I never knew ______ was so good! "

Manusky's defense, probably at the command of Singletary, was a conservative, keep-every-receiver-in-front-of-you, pass rush only-in-your-lane kind of thing.

Yes. And it probably was at the command of Singletary. Manusky was vague, but said something at the end of the year that could be interpreted as making that bolded part very much truth.

It was the same under Nolan as well. I think that's how Mansuky runs his defense.

Or could be that we had the misfortune of two straight defensive minded tyrants.

I just think Mansuky is conservative. We see that Nolan wasn't conservative in Denver or Miami. Him and Nolan might have had some power struggles on how to run the defense at times. And I think Singletary was clueless and just let Manusky run the defense how Manusky wanted it ran. Probably a mixture of all but when you the DC and your scheme is consistently vanilla that's on you.
