Good Article on Rookie Progress

Nice find. Thnx for sharing.

Yeah that was pretty solid stuff. Surprising from BR.

man, what the hell is going on with martin?

Niners Starting Defense At The End Of The Year With Depth

DE Smith / Dial
NT Williams / Jerod - Eddie
DE McDonald / Carradine
OLB Smith / Lemonier
MLB Bowman / Borland
MLB Willis / Wilhoite
OLB Brooks / Lynch
CB Culliver / Cook
CB Brock / Johnson
NB Ward / Cox / Morris
FS Reid / Ward
SS Bethea

This could be a dominating D heading into the postseason if any D can be dominating anymore with the rule changes. If not dominating at least fast with the ability to take the ball away. I'm excited and there is reason to be lot's of depth and youth. I don't know what people are talking about with all the windows crap. There is no such thing if you know how to draft and coach. Let's hope for relatively few injuries and I think we may have the most talent on this roster since 94.

This lineup looks really good. Actually good is an understatement. But no Skuta? Not your fault because we only have so many roster spots. I'm hoping that if it comes down to it, we can trade him as opposed to outright cutting him. If anything, we'd probably get a 7th. I'd rather have that 7th in 2016 however as a result of a compensatory pick as opposed to having to trade him because there is no room this year.

Unfair to grade a guy who just came back from injury don't you think has NOT had the reps

This draft class looks loaded. I'm impressed with Ellington, he's small but plays much bigger. He may climb up the depth chart in a hurry. The picture of Lynch walking with Tank was an eye opener, Lynch is huge.

Good read on the rookies

Yes ! He is an interesting one, 2 months ago I posted something about him in NCommand´s Team Need Updates Thread.

Just read Matt Barrows observations from mini camp. There may be another surprise player to keep an eye on as a OT, Dillon Farrell.

Dillon Farrell. This is an obscure one, yes, but I'm including him because I constantly heard offensive line coach Mike Solari lauding Farrell on Thursday. The undrafted rookie played center at New Mexico the last two years. But he also has experience at tackle, and that's what he was playing – right tackle, with the second-team offense – this spring. Farrell proved to have quick feet and, as you would expect from a center, is a quick learner. It will be tough for him to land a spot on the 53-man roster, but versatile linemen always are coveted on the practice quad.

Gotta love guys that can play multiple spots.

Great read!

is from USC tho lol. but in all seriousness yea he probably isnt up to date calling blitzes and such and it is taking away concentration from what happens after the snap

Good read. Looking forward to reading a similar article after game 4 of the preseason.

Hopefully this keeps up. I had a really good feeling about this draft as it was going on because of all the value we got. Looks like a great draft so far.
