What I am wondering, is that they said to go against the Read Option offense (Seattle) you must have strong corners and rely on the zone... So what we do, pick up Nnamdi Asomugha a weak zone corner and a safety who is better playing the run but sometimes lose the ball... Like you I have faith in our brass and their vision, and I expect other moves but for day one of the draft I have to wonder a bit...
Tell me am I missing somethign or reading it all wrong?

Reading it all wrong.
1st he's not weak at playing the pass. The knock on him is that he's too aggressive and that makes him overrun plays. Nothing about ability and they say he's actually excellent at guarding te's he's 6'2" 210lbs 40 and a half inch vert and a 134 inch broad jump and was the fastest in the 40 out of the safeties all of which were the best at the combine. Discipline and technique were his problems/knocks. and he's a safety.. he isn't going to be lined up on wr's and he can cover center field as well as hit hard AND he can come in and stuff the run and he has very good hands. Trust me, the passing thing is being misrepresented.
2. Seattle doesn't run the option read on us, and we don't run the pistol on them. That's how it goes. we know it and they know it too well so we honestly don't have to worry about it, other teams that don't have our defense do.
and how the 49ers defend it is simple, have brooks and smith set the edge
and have willis and bowman clean it up.
and soon we'll have more dt help to go along with dorsey to push the pressure right up the middle. our lb's can chase down anyone.
and keep in mind we have a whole crop of rookies who basically red shirted last year who will be ready to prove themselves and try to get on the field.
He's a pure safety, he's undisciplined but that's where our coaching comes in. The physical talent is there, as well as the hunger to learn and be better. Immediate impact player. if i thought it was a bad move i'd honestly say so.
Some have been saying we shouldn't have moved up. but i say, we swapped 1st round picks. and then gave them a pick in the 3rd round that didn't belong to us anyway. and moved all the way up to 18.
now what did the vikings give up to pick in the patriots spot?
12 spots AFTER us
During the last game vs the 'Hawks we was killed in the flat by their bigger and stronger receivers, our corners were too small and linebackers too slow and we were able to get any pressure with Wilson rolling out and stepping up in the pocket to buy time..
We was good vs the run, so why not go into a hybrid nickle using Reid as a hybrid linebacker and dare them to run while throwing a extra DB to mix things up..
if you look at the stats there weren't gaudy numbers anyone put up.
what hurt us was that justin was out and aldon was hurt (we didn't know it) so the line didn't get the pressure it would have. russell didn't run on us cause he couldn't he did buy a million minutes in the pocket because the pressure wasn't good enough to get to him. and it doesn't matter who your db's are no corners can cover for 7-8 seconds.
also our linebackers weren't too slow. they covered the areas they were supposed to. but like i said the line was totally done for. after playing 90+ snaps last week and then justin being hurt and aldon being hurt he was back there forever.
also
bringing him up for that purpose would eliminate half of his value. no matter what we aren't going to be in many zone coverages and we need someone like him to roam.
we have to wait and see what else we do before we figure out who's going to be where
I HOPE dt. cause we have the 2nd pick in the 2nd round which there really is no difference so we can get a great player. they say dt or te. i say dt and then te and then everything else.
O line is getting beasty
I agree, wouldn't mind Cornellius Carradine or Jessie Williams and Zach Ertz..
Ayo LMAO @ dallas
I was with the trade down. Theres alot of talent in rounds 2 and 3. Jerrah fucked up big time by taking that backup Center at 31 though.
ESPN tried so hard to play up the "Te'o is gonna go now!" angle to keep viewers interested...lol. Kiper sounded like an idiot up there...
@ ESPN.
trust me. he can cover. he just needs some technique help. which you know our coaching staff will provide.
whitner isn't really there to cover though he's there to make the big hits at the line. dashon was the cover. i think reid is going to be excellent. and once we get honey badger
ok thanks.
just read a scouting report on him and definitely like what I read. Donatell will mos def coach him up.
love that we got the second pick of day two btw! so many directions the Niners can go

I hope we we also nab the Honey Badger because Reid had his best years playing along side of him and faltered a little last year trying to do too much to make up for him not being there.. I think by grabbing both they would bring the best out of each other in ways that is not possible alone..
Dunno about this pick. Miami is on that bullshit
This comment is very disappointing coming from you. I can excuse the other folks on the board that are Miami haters, Not familiar with our team, not familiar with our Division, not familiar with the caliber of teams we will be playing in 2013.
Let's start with our own Division(YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS)
It's been said forever, WANNA CHANCE? THEN WIN YOUR OWN DIVISION. We haven't done that for awhile and the reason for that is called Tom Brady.
The logical question is how do you beat a Brady led New England Patriots? Here are your choices
1) Defend them very well
2) Outscore them
3) Slow them down
Without question if anyone has followed NE Football you know the **KEY** to beating the Patriots is getting at Tom Brady. REAL Dolphin fans have known this since the days of Jason Taylor, Ole , Trace Armstrong, Zach Thomas. The Giants didn't discover this WE have always known this.
Now, arguable and well reported we picked one of the TOP rated talents in the ENTIRE DRAFT. The guys has been compared to JPP, Aldon Smith,Demarcus Ware, the GREAT Jason Taylor. I would argue this guy is more explosive and athletic than Jason Taylor..
Your going to put something like that on the other side of Cam Wake! In rotation with O.Vernon, Starks, Soli, Odrick. We were already 7th in terms of Sacks last year...
Finally, our upcoming schedule:
Brees, Flacco, Ryan, Brady, Big Ben, Luck, Cam, Rivers
Tell me again how adding one of the most explosive prospects to the D-Line is bullshit again??
We ONLY gave up a 2nd round pick to move up. Are you kidding me? Do you know how much of a steal that was? Do you know what your normally suppose to give up to move that high? Did you see what other teams gave up to move up?

what a clueless ass bunch
This the most athletic out the long family
Now howie gonna be on our dick
Now howie gonna be on our dick
first of all, this draft class is very, very weak at just about every position except OL & DL.
the qb's, wr's, rb's, etc. are all under-sized or too slow, questionable, etc. and the college game has TOTALLY fucked-over the tight end and full back positions.
but, if you look closely, there are some very good, very athletic defensive linemen and a LOT of good o-linemen.
my two teams: the saints & the raiders BOTH totally fucked-up imo. eric reid from a good LSU defense was available and so was jones, and they take some dude from texas... a team that hasn't played good defense in YEARS!!! WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!
and for the record, the cowboys will be just fine. jerry is the best gm in the HISTORY of the earth.

Eagles i have changed my mind of Geno Smith... He is showing that he is emotionally fragile. Yes things didnt go the way you planed but hold you head up young brotha and show up tonight back in the draft room. Don't go pouting in the corner somewhere because you were not a first rounder.
Today I really want us (Raiders) to pick up Tank Caradine. I'm going to be pissed if the 9ers end up picking him up though.
I don't see why everyone is so hyped over Lacy.He ran behind an NFL line and was just good but hardly great.

Nigga stfu and stop spouting bullshit u regeritating in the media
There have been plenty of players who were expecting to go in the first round and sat there on draft night disappointed
I can name one Aaron Rodgers he was projected to go number 1 and didn't end up getting picked until the last pick in the first round
The fuck you expect when you are projected to go Number 1 or top 10 to not being picked at all.. U going to sit there happy about it? Cheesing and shit smh
If Geno was a white boy you would be repeating that bullshit...
i ain't spouting shit from the media nigga.
1. it was mentioned in this thread last night that it looked like dude was crying.
2. if you're not mentally tough enough to hold you head up during the draft your damn sure not tough enough to play in Philly.
3. its not about him sitting there disappointed its about him opting not to show up today because his ego was bruised. man the fuck up sit in the damn room and wait until your name is called. there are people in this world with bigger problems than not being drafted in the first round.
when these players meet with coaches and with teams they have an idea of were they stand draft wise. i'm sure Geno knew and knows what went on in those meetings about teams telling him they would draft him.
I wanted Austin but its all good..
EJ is a solid player don't know if he will be big time in the league tho
