It's cool." ? He said you have to ask Bill about that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith has length and I think he understands our system (did he play in KC during Romeo Crennell's tenure in KC?) He got signed after Crennell had left KC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heres a Mike Reiss synopsis: I don't know why you say he was in the doghouse all camp. He was held out of one practice. He is not a starter, the starters in a 4 Dline look are Branch-Valentine, Brown and Flowers. Why are you surprised that a 1st year rotational player got reps. Gilmour and Cooks are starters, that is why they did not play. VanNoy played. BB kept 27 players off the field. I was at camp 4 days this year including both scrimmages . Ealy took full rotation both scrimmages. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Branch-Valentine-Brown are all interior players, the only edge player you listed was Flowers. Also, Lawerence Guy did not play either despite being healthy so either he is a starter and not the guys you mentioned or your entire theory is wrong. Van Noy did not play against the Jags either. Duron Harmon and Nate Ebnar didnt play, neither of whom are starters but both are virtual locks for the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a difficult time the first week, but by the 2nd week he was hitting his stride. I also saw him used quite a bit in a 3 tech role that flowers seen often last season. He was honest with a reporter about being held out of the first practice and then it seemed every reporter stated to look for faults in his game. The only new guys on the line that clearly outshone him were butler and guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 This came out of the Washington Post's beat reporters projected depth chart after the second preseason game. Sufficed to say, this would be eyeopening to cut a guy less than six months after giving him a four year contracts. That said, McClain hasn't looked that good so maybe cut your losses?

You could argue James White is the most proven after a superbowl record breaking performance. I like Lewis, I'd keep him all day long, but his overall impact last season was pretty minimal.

49erurtaza Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 looks like the 49ers are going to cut Ahmad Brooks. Can be a good stop gap for a team at the OLB position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be a good stop gap for a team at the OLB position Yep, he'll latch on somewhere. New England could be a good fit, I think. He still has something left in the tank, would be an okay addition to a team looking for a stopgap guy, I agree. I've said it in other threads - can't really regret his tenure here. He was underrated his first few years, and was still largely competent his last couple of years here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he played well as a slot CB as of late. Did his play decline towards the end of last season and so far this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
