we can agree nate clements was a disaster.... I hope your're right about cully and brock...
Back in the day during the "Alex Smith" years, we had to overpay, to attract free agents
Nate Clements was good the first year we signed him, then after that it was all downhill
Similar to Carlos Rogers
I have more faith in Brock, than I do in Cully
Brock has come a long way
I think he's going to be an upgrade over Terrell Brown
Brock is always busting his ass, working hard, & he is a ballhawk
Now Cully has all the PHYSICAL attributes to be a top corner but....
He's a KNUCKLEHEAD !!!
I think Cully will play well & lock down his man for like 3.5 quarters but then...
Have one of his mental breakdowns & give up a huge play
Dude still seems to be kinda immature & not mentally focused all the time, to be a starter
Jimmy Ward and Perrish Cox should play the nickel position better than, slow ass Carlos Rogers
Overall I think our corners & safeties should be okay
Not great like Seattle, but solid
Our pass rush will cover up their flaws
The main thing I'm still concerned with is.....
1. How long will Aldon Smith be suspended
2. The drop off in talent at Bowman's position
(last year Bowman was playing, probably better than Patrick Willis)
3. The big question mark at Nose Tackle
(and the ability to stop the run)
4. The big question mark at Boone's spot at Right Guard
*** I don't think Boone is coming back. Because Boone is actually a Tackle play the Guard position. He wants tackle money & he wont get it here with Joe Staley & Anthony Davis already locked up long term. The 49ers already drafted a couple guards, so they probably are not going to pay or extend Boone long term.... unless Looney or Martin look really bad
