Rashaun Woods

[CanadaBoys]

Because it isn't responsible for drafting him, the new San Francisco staff has no loyalty to wide receiver Rashaun Woods, and the 49ers' first-round pick of just a year ago could be sent packing.

got this from Len P's Tip Sheet....
Just wanted to ask if anyon in the know can tell me why they are giving up on Woods already (or at least close to it)....

I saw this guy in college and he was a MONSTER. what's the problem?

 

[Smith22]

He was awesome in college. Didn't follow him last year with the whiners though.

He couldn't make a dent in the depth chart last year as a rookie. That's not unheard of, but certainly not a positive when your team is struggling on offense and will play anybody for the last half of the year because there's no shot at the playoffs.

Looks to be another bad draft pick for an organization that hasn't drafted well in a long time.

His 40 time wasn't all that great. But I'm at a loss why he isn't doing as well. I was hoping he would drop to the second round and the Cowboys would have a chance at him.

Oh well. Shows you how much I know about player evaluation.

 

[Cbz40]

Yes .....He was great at Oklahoma State....That's a shocker, thought he would be a great pro.

I'm pretty sure the 9ers kept 6 receivers and R. Woods made the cut.

I can't find where he got cut either.

I can't find where he got cut either.

I'm 57% positive he didn't get cut.

I was right!

See Nors, I'm not always wrong.

It's fact that collegiate WRs are one of the hardest positions to gauge as to how they'll perform at the next level. W/ that said, it would be ******** for the 9er's to give up on him so soon. It takes most recievers a couple of years to develop. If ever released, I'd pick him up in a heartbeat.

So would I.

Rashaun Woods has been plagued by hammy problems since his rookie year so it's prevented him from seeing the field. I'm not even sure if he played in any preseason games this year. The Niners coaches are also upset with him because he hasn't picked up the playbook either.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

I thought Woods would be an excellent pro as well, but from what I've heard, SF coaches think Woods has a poor work ethic. And that's one of the few things I can think of that would explain his failing as a pro, because he definitely has the talent.

 

[Rack]

Time for you to start the customary "I told you so" thread. Go ahead, Sarge, do a little chest thumping.

Woods in college could jump over a lot of guys and had good size. His speed was never great. Also he basically was able to do the Michael Irvin type thing that's not allowed anymore. And his size isn't that great at 6-0 190. He was never gonna make a great pro. I thought he would be better then he's ended up being though.
