CJ is a big man. Dude is gonna be an anchor on the inside he will free up Warner and either Winters or Martin to have a good year.

me: does CJ kind of remind you of Grady Jarrett?

my homie: dude, every squatty, powerful, explosive IDL reminds you of Grady Jarrett.

me: true, but that's because the first one got away and I'm looking for the next one.
Rookie DT CJ West dominated one-on-ones, beating every offensive lineman he faced, including RG Dominick Puni. He is proving to be a handful for blockers.

Video? This is great news rewatching him he doesn't get pushed back keeps his eyes on the ball, not who he's engaged with and can shed. However I couldn't help but notice time and time again his acceleration and speed are really poor he gets there but players easily avoid him if there's space to run

Got a good feeling about West!!! I bet Mykal Williams and CJ West will be the best picks of the 49ers draft class this year.

The idea of all these guys hitting, along with Alfred Collins . With Dee Winters coming on, this defense will get nasty again in a hurry.

Let's pump the breaks, I'm excited too but the entire dline outside of Bosa is an unkown/"okay" Winters hasn't proved anything yet not sure where this he's going to blow up this season is coming from? Mustapha had a solid rookie campaign the rest of the safety's don't look that great, and god forbid if either Green/Lenoir go down. I like what we're building on defense but I'm not expecting them to be a top unit at all this season
The young man kind of reminds me of Micheal Carter who was a beast at DT in the 80's until he broke a bone in his foot.
This guy looks like the chunker in the middle we've been missing

He's only 6'1" but he weighs close to 320. Good low center of gravity. Perfect for getting a push up the middle.

What a f**king unit. Dude looks like a young Grady Jarrett in pads. Something tells me offenses aren't going to like spamming duo at CJ and Alfred in the near future.

Couldn't be more excited about this guy and his "violent hands," he's gonna bring that Attitude to our defense.

He appears to be a tough guy that doesn't ever go backward. Reminds me of the old Niner nose tackle Michael Carter.
