I'm glad, I think bringing back Bakhtiari could be a blessing in disguise. he could be our Parys Haralson lite. Actually I though he should've been on the final 53.

Im thinking... we go back to lots of base defense against the vikes

vic prolly wont wanna take chances with their best player being a RB, and we could use sop's big body no homo

and ponder isnt scaring anyone. so I expect cully to have his snaps cut unless minny goes to 3WR sets often.

Yeah, I think everybody did. I guess that concussion he suffered was too much of a risk to have him on the week 1 roster (Guranteed contract), so they cut him pretty much knowing nobody else was gonna pick up a journeyman LB that just had a concussion. Glad it's working out in the end.
On a side note, the Niners also brought in Shawn Merriman to workout before signing Bakhtiari.

Shawne Merriman visits the 49ers, 49ers sign someone else | ProFootballTalk

On Wednesday, we shared some words from an interview with Shawne Merriman in which he said he was waiting for a 3-4 team in need of an outside linebacker to give him a call before he could continue his career.

Merriman got a call, but he isn’t yet continuing his career. Aaron Wilson of Scout.com reports that Merriman visited with the 49ers on Wednesday before they wound up bringing back training camp cut Eric Bakhtiari instead. The Niners had a need for a linebacker to fill in while Clark Haggans is serving his three-game suspension and opted for a guy who has been with the team or on the practice squad on and off over the last few years instead of bringing Merriman on board.

Haggans’ suspension seemed to make San Francisco a good fit for Merriman, especially since they wouldn’t be relying on him to do much in the way of heavy lifting for the defense. That wouldn’t be as true in Washington, where the Redskins need to replace Brian Orakpo at outside linebacker, but it could be another place where Merriman earns a look.

Getting the look is just part of the story, though. Getting the job is the other, more difficult part of the process.
