The #49ers have signed former #Lions second-round CB Teez Tabor to their practice squad, source said. A high-upside signing for SF. ... FA LB BJ Bello has been added to the #Packers practice squad, too.

I wouldnt sweat it as much with this defense. First, it's a PS signing. 2nd, the LOB days saw Browner and Sherman dominate everything but there 40 times. 4.57 and 4.63

Tabor was a guy I wanted coming out. I thought he was a little over drafted but perfect as a guy to develop and keep on the PS. Very solid signing IMO.

Playing cover 3 CB doesn't require elite speed so let's see if he can handle recognition. If he can recognize quick enough to make up for speed, then we may have something.

surprising that they would get a slow guy when this regime is obsessed with speed.

There is a lot of talent to work with. Worth taking a shot on a guy like that.
