The Bad from the 49ers preseason win over the Packers"},"content":{"rendered":"<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the 49ers preseason opener in the rearview mirror, it\u2019s time to look at who impressed me, and who didn\u2019t in the win against the Packers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First off, the good.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>QB Trey Lance looked really good, I think he only had 1 incompletion, and a nice long TD to Danny Gray, a 76 yarder, he looks as advertised.<\/li>\n<li>QB Nate Sudfeld looked very good, nice arm strength, had a nice long TD to Ray-Ray McCloud III, also showed nice athleticism, I think I was wrong about being mad about a 1yr fully guaranteed $2 million deal.<\/li>\n<li>QB Brock Purdy looked really good, has some nice throws, a nice TD to Tanner Hudson, and showed nice arm strength.<\/li>\n<li>RB Trey Sermon looked good to me, he had a few nice carries, no he wasn\u2019t spectacular, but he looks improved.<\/li>\n<li>RB Jordan Mason was very good, hit the holes, really looks like a potential to steal a roster spot, but practice squad for sure to develop as that next UDFA back to surprise.<\/li>\n<li>WR Ray-Ray McCloud III looked good besides the fumble, he had that nice long TD catch from Sudfeld.<\/li>\n<li>WR Danny Gray looked very good, not just on the TD, but his speed, his size, he really may end up being a steal when it\u2019s all set and done.<\/li>\n<li>TE Tanner Hudson looked really good with that TD catch, he has very good hands, he may have won a spot on the roster, especially if he keeps this up the next 2 preseason games.<\/li>\n<li>C Jake Brendel, LG Aaron Banks, &amp; RG Spencer Burford all looked good, they had a rocky start, but really looked good out there, I think the 49ers may have found their guards of the future.<\/li>\n<li>RG Jason Poe looked very good, for a guy who&#8217;s only 6&#8217;1, 305, he looked good, protecting the QBs.<\/li>\n<li>RT Jordan Mills looked good, he was a late camp addition, so he could steal a roster spot, but practice squader for sure.<\/li>\n<li>DE Kemoko Turay looked very good, he had a nice stop, showed nice pass rush skills, he\u2019s a guy I\u2019m excited to see out there week 1.<\/li>\n<li>DE Drake Jackson showed some nice techniques, he looked very good in the limited play time, thankfully the injury was just a stinger.<\/li>\n<li>DE Kerry Hyder Jr. also looked good, very happy to have him back after a down year in Seattle.<\/li>\n<li>DT Robert Nkemdiche looked very good, he got through the Packers offensive line with ease, made a nice tackle that looked like a loss of yards.<\/li>\n<li>NT Javon Kinlaw looked good in my eyes, got some pressure, had a nice tip, coming off an injury, he\u2019ll just continue to improve each week in my opinion.<\/li>\n<li>SLB Marcelino McCrary-Ball had a very nice INT, showed nice speed, most likely a practice squader.<\/li>\n<li>MLB Oren Burks looked very good, all over the place, has a knack for getting to the ball, better than advertised.<\/li>\n<li>CB Ka\u2019dar Hollman looked good despite giving up a TD, he looked like as real good player out there, he may steal a roster spot, especially with Dontae Johnson\u2019s injury.<\/li>\n<li>CB Dontae Johnson also looked good out there, playing outside CB, inside CB, and safety, he should be on the week 1 roster unless he must begin on IR due to the rib cartilage injury.<\/li>\n<li>CB Ambry Thomas &amp; CB Deommodore Lenoir I thought looked good, not great, but looked good out there, Thomas had a penalty, that wasn\u2019t accepted, Lenoir was good, both look like the backup outside CBs.<\/li>\n<li>CB Samuel Womack III looked tremendous, he had 2 INTs, one where he took the ball away from the Packers WR, and a second, he may unseat Darqueze Dennard for that slot CB role.<\/li>\n<li>SS Talanoa Hufanga looked good, he\u2019s solidified himself as the teams\u2019 strong safety<\/li>\n<li>SS George Odum also looked good, both on defense and special teams, I expect big thing from him on special teams.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, the bad.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>RB JaMycal Hasty looked good to some but to me that kickoff where he should have let it go out of bounds was bad, I\u2019m not a big fan of Hasty, so maybe I\u2019m being biased<\/li>\n<li>TE Ross Dwelley was just ineffective, he wasn\u2019t doing anything, I think the 49ers may end up regretting the $250,000 guarantee they gave him.<\/li>\n<li>C Keaton Sutherland was horrible, bad snap(s), getting run over, he can\u2019t see the field<\/li>\n<li>LT Colton McKivitz was also ineffective, getting beat, luckily none of the QBs got hurt.<\/li>\n<li>LT Sam Schluetter was bad, getting beat, pushed back, just not an NFL Tackle, at best a practice squader to develop<\/li>\n<li>RT Justin Skule was also ineffective, getting beat, looking real bad out there, might be time to cut bait.<\/li>\n<li>DT Kevin Givens didn\u2019t look bad, but also didn\u2019t look great, he still has the upper hand for the backup DT spot behind Arik Armstead.<\/li>\n<li>FS Tarvarius Moore got beat badly on the Romeo Doubs TD, not sure what happened, but it was bad, for a guy with very good speed, he shouldn\u2019t have gotten beat, but with no other safeties on the roster, he\u2019s still a lock to make the team.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, there you have it, my good &amp; the bad from the 49ers win over the Packers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With that said, thank you for reading, &amp; you can follow me on Twitter\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/49erscap\">@49erscap<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the 49ers preseason opener in the rearview mirror, it\u2019s time to look at who&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5284,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,4,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-analysis","category-exclusive","category-roster"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"views":74,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5284"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
