Here's the strongest part of the team in my opinion.
Patrick Willis: Best LB in the game, he hit's super hard, he can cover as well, he has no flaws in his game, only flaws in the defensive scheme, nuff said.
Grade: S-Class
Navarro Bowman: Partrick Willis's son. We stay sonning ninjas out here
Grade: A-
Aldon Smith: The Pain Train continue, he may look like a roided out Tyler the Creator but I'm not saying that to the dudes face and neither should you. DROY of the year in our hearts. All-pro in the future.
Grade: A
Ahmad Brooks: Solid all around linebacker, I'm glad we kept him, he can fill in any position and play. He's a luxury, he'd be a starter on almost any other team, look at what the Bengals did with Manny Lawson.
Grade: B+
Eric Bakhtiari: Impressive pre-season, I think he stays on our team as a backup/special teamer.
Grade: C
Larry Grant: Another luxury, a solid 2nd team player, he filled in well win P Willy got hurt, glad we have him, he's a better coverer than a tackler though imo, but he's still decent at it.
Grade: C
Parys Haralson: A broad lummox, great run stopper, liability in pass coverage. Good to have though.
Grade: C+
Cam Johnson: I think he has a bright future ahead, I think he'll replace Parys Haralson down the line
Grade: B-
Kenny Rowe: Potential Special teamer
Grade: D-
Tavaris Gooden: Nice pickup for us, I think he'll be a 3rd down player or something like that
Grade: C-
Michael Wilhote: Surprised if he doesn't get cut
Grade: F
Our LB is elite, the best in the league and with our youth at the position, we'll be the class of the NFL for the next decade easy maybe more so since we rarely missed in the previous drafts.

Our LB corps is mean and vicious.
There is no denying that, if they can stay together for the long haul they could be all-time great.

Bleacher Report is saying we traded Colin Jones to the Panthers.

looks like the rock got them deavors.
i gotta hand it to dixon tho. i thought he had no chance to make the team but he's worked hard and looks like it's paid off.
Dixon stepped his shyt up. Harbaugh and his versatility.
Kudos to him, now carry it over to the regular season Boobie

Shyt if that's the case than Rock Cartwright may be the guy cut. I'd take Dixon's youth and if he's improved in this offseason, then we gotta keep him, especially since Brandon Jacobs may be out a while. Sorry just saw the above tweet
This is good though, if Boobie works hard he could be like a better version of MRob.

Ok here's the D-Backs and the Kickers:
Carlos Rodgers: Played at a pro-bowl level last year and will be a very good player for another 2-3 years, typically CB's don't decline until about 34-35, if they are elite or close to it.
Grade: B+
Tarrell Brown - He gets better every year, at worst he's a solid nickel back. I'm glad we let him develop though, I think he is hitting his stride.
Grade: B-
Chris Culliver: He played impressively in stretches last year. He will be a number one CB in a year or two. What a steal in the 3rd round.
Grade: B
Perrish Cox: Another steal, despite his troubled past, his talent is obvious. He could be a #2 beside Culliver, right now he's just a nice depth player, but the upside is considerable.
Grade: C+
Tremaine Brock: I think he's a decent tackler but his coverage sucks, we could take him or leave him at this point.
Grade: D-
Darcell McBath: I think he may stay as a PS player
Grade: D-
Anthony Mosley: Another PS player if he doesn't get cut.
Grade: F
Dashson Goldson: Great hitter, iffy coverage guy, but he's got good instincts. He ain't worth Eric Weddle money though.
Grade: B
Donte Whitner: Underrated, quietly one of the best safeties in the L. I hope we keep him as long as possible.
Grade: A-
Darcel McBath: Good depth player, apparently he survived the cut. He did impress me at times this offseason, he is a good cover guy and he has some speed. I think he's got some upside.
Grade: C-
C.J. Spillman: Dude is a better return guy than safety.
Grade: D+
Michael Thomas: Looks to be a PS guy
Grade: F
Kickers/Special Teams
David Akers da Gawd: Best in the L,
Grade: A+
Andy Lee: Master of the coffin corner punt, helped keep us in so many games for us to eventually take the win.
Grade: A+
Brian Jennings: Good long snapper, few errors
Grade: B
Kyle Nelson: We'll see, or maybe we won't
Grade: D-

I didnt really count shyt this year and all but I thought since we re-signed him we were at least interested....
Id take williams over him easily thoowusu should be on the practice squad I think, dont think anyone wants him

owusu should be on the practice squad I think, dont think anyone wants him
he was basically auditioning for other teams
niners are loaded at wr this year, did manningham play at all in the preseason?

I am somewhat surprised at these but we were loaded at those positions so such is life.
