Off-season film thread: Reuben Foster

Foster used on a blitz. 49ers overload one side of the line but will send numbers on the other side. White are rushers, yellow will drop into coverage.
Daggers vs Cover 1


LT is 2v1 against slot CB and Foster. Foster takes a hard cut to the inside of the LT. RB late to look weakside.


Foster showing the dip.


Gets the QB hit. Colbert had a cast.

Frost bite.

I know the odds of it happening are slim to none...but would be great if Reuben got out of this with no suspension at all. We need all hands on deck for the Vikings week 1 and I'd love to have Reuben out there.

Going to be a very tough game so we need all our best out there.

I shouldn't have said that the TE game a "little push" on Solly. That push helped the LT win that reach block. I slowed it down and Solly felt that TE push.
Foster blew up the TE, TE fell and caused the LT to trip over, LT caused Solly to go down, Solly caused the C to go down. Foster a wrecking ball on this play.

I'm fatigued from all the courtroom talk. Thanks, jonnydel.
Any improvements Foster needs to make besides not hitting with the helmet? If there is one thing I can nitpick about, it's that he will sometimes bite hard on playaction if he is the playside LB. Which prevents him from getting enough depth on his coverage drop. Although many LBs do this because that's the whole point of an offense using playaction. Hard to rave about his ability to aggressively blow run plays up then complain about him biting on playaction.

Watch the hit he puts on the Titans receiver Matthews. Easy to miss, but he destroys him

Colbert is gonna be a baller. He had that cast on his hand and it kept him from 2 picks IIRC

I think there are times when he tries to runaround blockers instead of stuffing the hole or forcing the play back inside. That comes with time though. Willis really came into that when Bow showed up and that's one reason Bow looked so darn good.

It usually takes another good player next to you. If you have a guy who makes mistakes next to you, then you are going to try to do too much because of the lack of trust.

Bump

Think he was starving to make some plays... Just rookie eagerness partially imo. He is overall football smart though, so going into his 2nd year after missing time in the off season/during season with a high ankle sprain last year...hes gonna be a pro bowl caliber LB this upcoming year especially with a better surrounding cast overall imo.
