1, Dorsey

4. A 2-3 round pick next year

We lost:
1. Soap
2. Moss
3. Alex Smith
4. Goldson
5. Walker
6. RJF (probably)

I'd say that is pretty good so far.

The only big loss out of those is Goldson. I love the way out front office operates. Never overpay & stand your ground. It's almost a sure thing that we'll be drafting a safety with 31st or 34th pick. As good as Goldson was, we need a safety with good coverage skills.

No, he's a classic run stopping 2 gap defender

Its funny...I've read a tone of stuff that says he's miscast in a 3-4...

...and it makes me flash back to Cincy fans that were critical of Justin Smith because he wasn't capable of playing in a 3-4.

Hrmmm.

Not the same guy...clearly...but Tomsula is a damn good coach.

I like this signing. I know he hasn't lived up to his pre draft potential but he's still young enough and with ability and good players and good coaching around him, he'll do a lot better for the 49ers. We needed this.

Yes, they do say he is because of the production he had in the 4-3 in college.

But I like the signing and I'm interested to see how he gets coached up. Niners got good talent, probably for a good price.
