Dane Brugler on 49ers UDFA RB Cody Schrader: "he is an attitude runner who sets the tone with his physicality and contact balance" https://t.co/aTk8PcTlFb

I seem to recall Nugent being pretty badass, and also being pleased that he's NOT Ted Nugents son.

Nugent:

Initial dive into new Michigan C Drake Nugent (2yr starter at Stanford)

1st impression - better quickness off ball & range compared to Olu - Reaches, 2nd Level. With massive OGs Zinter/Keegan next to him - I'm excited for athleticism at center. Would love to see few more screens pic.twitter.com/kg3g26iOvJ

Back to the power run game.
Donovan gets 10 yards.

The transition to Drake Nugent at center has gone much better than I anticipated. After Olu, I expected a big drop off. Not so. pic.twitter.com/xPqDHi88EL

Schrader is tremendous. They clearly went after him hard, he had an outstanding season at Missouri after starting as a walk on at Truman State.

I like signing Nugent. He can push for the backup C job or spend the year on the practice squad. Most had him going in the 5th or 6th

Interesting that a bunch of fans wanted us to get Brenden Rice and we're getting TO's son instead.

Also don't imagine Tanner Mordecai will amount to much but he has an interesting athletic pedigree. According to his Wikipedia ran I think a 4.46 40. Perhaps an interesting practice squad QB.
