News of Cuts coming in .... plus Trades

[Coug_Hawk08]

Trade for two safeties is puzzling. Will be interesting to see how the final 53 shakes out at least. Never a dull moment.

Maybe we traded a few away? Simon/Terrell etc

Trying to find someone for the role that had envisioned Browner in.

So if this is pointed toward making sure that we can run a 4-2-5 and contain both the run and catching TEs at the same time, does anyone know anything about these safeties we traded for and how they would fit that second SS/hybrid role in that defense?

 

[TwistedHusky]

Well that must be bad news for Lambert, and I think he would have been perfect for that kind of role as a very physical safety with decent range.

Niners fans say LJ McCray is a special teams guy only, but apparently a very good one.

 

[LolaRox]

That is what I was thinking, maybe this is primarily about special teams?

As a Niner fan. LJ Mcray will be missed on special teams. Hard hitting coverage player. Never Really had a chance to start in SF.

They don't list Brandin Bryant on the cut lists or on the roster.

It looks like McDonald has serious speed: http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/ds ... &genpos=SS

Maybe a CB project?

Also by my count cutting Simon, Smith and Burley leaves them with just 4 corners. Sherman, Lane, Shead and Elliott.

They have Powell listed as a CB, which he has been playing in games.

Yup, I was just checking that. Then I counted out their 53 man roster.

They have 25 on offense, 24 on defense and 3 on specials. Meaning they're missing 1 guy on defense, and Bryant is likely that guy.

Also, they almost always go into the season with more than 4 DT's. That's pretty thin for that position as linemen tend to get hurt and nicked up quite a bit. Plus, they like a healthy rotation.

 

[nanomoz]

Surprised about Burley.

 

[FlyingGreg]

Surprised about Burley.

Very. I don'the get it.

Wonder if there is a CB trade brewing?

 

[sutz]

Surprised about Burley.

Was going to say the same thing. Part of the youth movement, I guess. :229031_shrug:
