757-NINER Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 1 hour ago, y2lamanaki said: I think it's to check out versatility and find ways to get him on the field quicker. In nickel and dime sets, it makes sense to get the best 5 or 6 DBs on the field, regardless of who they are. So the versatility helps out. On paper, Colbert, Tartt, Witherspoon, Sherman, and Williams are a promising young unit. So - you can move young guys around to see what they can do. It was like last year when many argued against moving Colbert to FS, arguing he was a cornerback. Sometimes guys spark at a position and you just run with it. I don't remember ppl being against moving Colbert to safety....at least I don't recall any. Most draft pundits had him listed as a DB who could play either or. And he did play safety for 2 years in college so I don't understand why that would be a issue for some. I personally viewed him as a safety watching his tape. I guess my thing with Reed is he isn't built like a safety, physically. He's built like a nickelback. I'd be concerned about him coming downhill and making tackles in tbe run game, as a safety. But in nickel situations I could see the appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-ALL-DAY Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 https://www.49ers.com/ For those interested in the live practice look in. The one on one drills probably start in 10 or so minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Well, they just showed the DL vs OL today. Solomon Thomas pretty much had his way against any guard trying to block him. Buckner and Tomlinson split their reps. Thought Cooper looked like the best guard on his reps against Taylor. Eli Harold is a bonafide scrub (Stephen A Smith voice). Marsh got no where against Staley. Not exactly a surprise. Mitchell destroyed Person in one of his reps. Didn't see Richburg there. Rest day for him? Day looked pretty beastly himself. Still prefer the WR vs CB 1 on 1s over these though. Just because Cohn will record these drills anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John232 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Those Buckner reps on the outside were really, really nice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned yesterday that getting Buckner some outside rushes will allow Armstead/Day to get more interior rushes. Plus for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean yeah, but he films the 1 on 1s and is usually the only one that does so. DL vs OL 1 on 1s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-ALL-DAY Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Alright, lets take it easy here lol. Good to hear Thomas is improving, but really he was always a good interior rusher. But better than the Rams duo? Oh boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 6 minutes ago, J-ALL-DAY said: Not going to make a big deal out of 2 reps in one on one's in TC, but a couple of things I thought: McG is slow out of his stance and into his backpedal in pass protection. Could obviously be sneezy being fast / athletic (which he is), but you can see where McG may really struggle with speed rushers on the outside. I know he was going up against a 7th round rookie, but I like Coopers foot work. Surprisingly sprightly for a big guy. On the flip side, Taylor has some really nice explosion for a dude his size. Eli Harold is just awful as a pass rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
