49er Cornerbacks thread | Page 3 | 49ers Webzone Forum

Couldn't find a thread to discuss this position without running into individual players... So we've lost Cully as of 3/1315. And will probably lose Cox... That makes Brock the #1 easily right now. Does this mean we MAY potentially grab a corner in the 1st? You'd have to think at least 2nd. Just surprised how we weren't able to re-sign EITHER of Cully or Cox...... I thought we were all about our own guys? Why can't we ever resign anybody who hits FA? Hopefully Kenneth Acker will be a pleasant surprise..

Does anyone know shareece wrights measurables? I think I saw 5'11 185 but do know about his 40 time. Due to his league leading PI calls, I would say he may either be slow or just bad. Sucks I hope he either gets outplayed by our rookies last year or cut

Never mind I looked it up. 4.46 time.

I think Brock and Johnson would be fine as starters. Cook was tracking and playing the ball well in the preseason, and that was the main knock on his game in Minny. Acker looked good before they put on the "mystery injury (depth) IR", and Reaser has all the talent, skill, desire, and smarts to be a star. I am truly unconcerned about the CB position.

leads the league in PI since 2013, and only has 1 career pick. kinda sounds like Carlos Rogers before we singed him.

this guy is clearly a downgrade; let's hope they have other options

Looking like balke may of had the bet draft maybe in the nfl lat year.
Great RB
Great lb
Solid guards
Potentially good CBS with Johnson being already good
Best fb in the draft
Ellington is very talented.

Hopefully the DBS work out well bc the est of the players I think are already good

I'm with you on that we drafted heavily last year on CB and Reaser is a baller can't wait to watch him

I'm normally don't worry about the secondary because Baalke has a good track record of finding talent in the later rounds at that position better than any other. He also took a chance on Cox which paid out, so I'm not as worried about the secondary as I am the front 7 and our offensive line

Sorry, what i ment was that I hope they draft a number 1 cb or wr...

Apparently the 49ers arent interested in covering WR's next year...

Brock is solid, but Ward and Johnson being the next best 2, coming off their rookie seasons?...yikes.

Our run D is going to get tested only like 7 times a game.

I'm not sure why people think Baalke is so good at finding CBs? A lot of CBs will look really good with our front 7, even last year! It's harder to say how things will go this year if we lose two off the DL and Dockett may or may not play well.

While Baalke for DB talent, it is an unknown this year since we lost the DB who was coaching them and the coordinator that set them up to succeed.

Same here, as well as Fangio instead of Mangini
