New DB Coach Greg Jackson

[StarBoyz83]

Now we just need safeties

If you wanna fix a leak, get someone who's dealt with a water crisis.

I always liked how their DBs played and what they got from Carlis Rodgers who was considered a bust.

Yeah they got A LOT out of him. That whole unit played solid in San Fran.

Decent hire, of course anybody with a heartbeat couldn't do any worse

Has a team ever had a season with their starting CBs not getting a single pick?

Who was our starting CB's outside of Carr lol. He was the only one who consistently got playing time.

Byron Jones is one and I am still wishing upon a star that we can sign Berry.

Hopefully he is better at identifying talent in prospects and free agents, as well as having a loud enough voice to convince Garrett, Jones, and McClay.

My only concern is that he has coached in a 3-4 scheme the last several years. Not a huge concern, just changes a few things coverage wise.

I like the hire. we need anything to help this secondary. At least we have change in the coaching ranks

Looks like a good hire

[Fletch]

Front office looking like geniuses again.

I'm impressed, 13 posts and not one wondering why someone would leave Michigan to come work for our inept coach and GM.

more money?
be part of the circus ?
he wants a SB ring ?
he wants to learn from JG ?

heard about the party bus ?

Thinks wilcox is all pro material?

During his tenure with San Fran they drafted safeties Collin Jones 2011, Trent Robinson 2012, Eric Reed 2013, and Jimmy Ward in 2014. You could also count Dontae Johnson in the 2014 draft but he was a CB/FS type. Of this group, only Reed has been a stand out. Who knows how much influence if any he had on drafting these kids though.

Maybe now our corners will actually look for the ball and not play 10 feet off their man.

Dont count on it, thats been a problem for almost a decade now. Seriously, we say that almost every off season

 

[TheFinisher]

Too bad he couldn't bring Jabril Peppers with him

 

[Alexander]

Great. This means Ramsey at four for certain.

Won't say I'm underwhelmed, as I think this hiring is a move in the right direction. Just had hoped for more, not sure if now moving Baker to coach CB's is a positive move. Although I'm sure they will spin it that way. Think Jackson is a better coach for the Safeties for sure. But would have liked to see someone like Nolan or Lewis come on board as well .... guess we will see. My point is I think we need a new philosophy for the secondary as a whole, not just the Safeties.
One step in the right direction I guess, I will be happy about that.
