Yeah, Im sure it was a penalty. It takes balls to lay out a man like Jackson, even if it was a sucker hit.

Berry was going to have to be the second coming of Ronnie Lott to justfy that selection.

Pioli drafted almost every player a half-round or full round ahead. He took low positional value players with his top picks all the time.

Do you really think he drafted Berry to become Ronnie Lott? Or did he draft Berry, like he did Tyson Jackson, Arenas, Asamoah, Hudson, and the list goes on because they were the best safe guys on the board? I'm going for the latter.

Marcus Cooper's draft video. This is Jalil Brown's replacement, I presume?

Dante84 · 09-01-2013, 10:13 PM

Here's some random-ass 4 year old interception from CB Ron Parker

And Jaye Howard in college:

This is the guy I'm having a hard time getting excited about.

The Brown cut does surprise me.

Brown played a good game against GB. Really, he struggled a bit against NO but played well against SF, Pitt and GB.

He's never going to be a starter but as a backup and/or Nickel CB, he's a fine player.

That said, I think Cooper has easily Browns potential, but I certainly don't understand Parker over him.

The CB depth on this team just terrifies me. No, Brown wasn't amazing, but for this season he's going to be a better cover CB than Parker for certain and likely better than Cooper as well (who appears to be very similar to Sanders Commings in terms of strengths/weaknesses and skill).

Even if you don't see Brown as a guy that brought something to the STs unit (though you'd be wrong), I'm not sure how you can see this Parker cat and think "man - it's a good thing we have him instead of Brown - we're clearly better for it".

I love the Moses pickup and really liked Johnson coming out of the draft. Howard has some ability and I wonder if he can't be a situational 3-tech for us. He was supposed to be a plus pass-rusher coming out of school - maybe a new scheme will be a better fit.

I was a little disappointed to see Diles go; I thought he earned a job. Long-term this is probably better for the org, but I always like seeing a long-shot work his way onto the squad and every time I watched Diles, he was making things happen. He did everything he could do to make the team, it just wasn't enough.

The Wylie cut is a bit surprising.

I am baffled too. He's great in ST.

You ****ing pedophile.

You're the classiest guy, ever.

You sure proved to me and everyone that read your posts that you WERE right about Stanzi, Cousins and Geno Smith.

And based in your earlier prescience, I'm sure you're right about Alex Smith as well.

Why? He didn't do anything of note last year, he had an injury history and McCluster and Hemingway have way more potential to stay healthy over the course of the 16 game season.

The biggest WR shocker to me is Jenkins. I figured he'd end up on the PS.

This. He pretty much did nothing this preseason to earn a spot on the roster.
