Around SBN: Fighters React to Nick Diaz's Positive Drug Test

49ers Roster: Who's on your practice squad?

Well, some of us are pleased and some of us are upset. Some of us don't care, in which case, why are you reading? Some people saw some of the players they loved cut. Some people saw their favorite player make the roster. There's no way to please everyone all the time, nor should the team even be worrying about pleasing us.

So the next question is practice squad. Obviously players are moved around a lot directly after cuts, but the next thing to consider beyond a trade or waiver wire signing is the practice squad and what players will be making it. I'll list the players who were cut yesterday who are also eligible to make the practice squad.

QB Jarrett Brown
FB Brit Miller
FB Jehuu Caulcrick
TE J.J. Finley
WR Kevin Jurovich
WR Bobby Guillory
OT Matt Kopa
C Cody Wallace
OG Brian de la Puente
DE Will Tukuafu
DT Derek Walker
DT Khalif Mitchell
LB Keaton Kristick
LB Mike Balogun
LB Bruce Davis
S Chris Maragos

I think we can assume at least one spot will be someone not on this list, maybe more. If they make waivers, one of Miller and Caulcrick is sure to make it. Jarrett Brown is a good bet, in my mind. One of the three defensive linemen and one or more of the three linebackers should make it as well. Who's on your practice squad?

Has to ask a few questions

Why Caulcrick over Miller?
Why Jerovich over Guillory?
Why have Walker, Davis, and Kristick taking up slots at all?

by ChesapeakeBay9er on Sep 4, 2010 11:56 AM PDT up reply actions  

Why Jurovich over Guillory?

because Jurovich made plays in the preseason. all Guillory did was suck.

LOL good point

Guess I’m still stinging from the ST problems.

by ChesapeakeBay9er on Sep 4, 2010 11:59 AM PDT up reply actions  

Jurovich had a nice KO return in Oakland. Could get even better with a year of practice. And he did have the great catch in Indy.

by James Brady on Sep 4, 2010 4:36 PM PDT up reply actions  

Because ...

1. Caulcrick is better than Miller, EXCEPT for special teams play; we have enough STers.
2. Jerovich is better than and has more upside than Guillory; Guillory is really only a STer while Jerovich has those same abilities AND a good WR.
3. All three have a reasonable shot of making the 53-man roster next year; in fact, in any OTHER year in the last ten, all three could have made the roster. We’re just very deep this year at those positions. By the way, who would you put on the PS in preference to these three?

by 49erFanSince1950 on Sep 4, 2010 3:58 PM PDT up reply actions  

Not so sure we have enough STers.

Caulcrick & Jerovich

Obviously the 49ers rated them higher than Miller & Guillory

Who's on my practice squad?

Me.

Alright, this squad is looking up already!

by Effage on Sep 4, 2010 11:58 AM PDT reply actions  

practice squad moves

I think Jarret Brown, Miller, Tukuafu, Bruce Davis, Mitchell, Caulcrick and Tramaine Brock, who will be on the practice after they move him over to make room to resign Robinson. Brock doesnt figure to even suit up. So practice squad makes a lot of sense while he develops. Its hard to figure some of these guys like Brock and Curtis Taylor contributing more than pro bowl alt. Michael Robinson. These guys all have upside but will not contribute any time soon.

by rileyg1 on Sep 4, 2010 11:59 AM PDT reply actions  

Interesting...very interesting

So Brock goes on the PS as does Taylor at a later time when hopefully eyes are not watching there as much. And a new deal is made with MRob and we have him back on captaining the ST. Not bad,not sure if it would work but intersting.

by ChesapeakeBay9er on Sep 4, 2010 12:02 PM PDT up reply actions  

Taylor

probably stays since he knows the assignments.

by rileyg1 on Sep 4, 2010 12:19 PM PDT up reply actions  

Brock may last until

Will James returns to action in about 2 weeks. There will be a lot of jockeying around with these players until they get the right combo set with out losing any future contributors. The key is to be good now and plan to be good in the future, which the better teams are very good at. Thats why they never seem to get into full rebuilding mode.

by rileyg1 on Sep 4, 2010 12:26 PM PDT up reply actions  

MRob

You have to hope he’d not claimed on waivers by a other team. I could see a team that feels it needs that one pice of leadership on their ST unit claiming him.

You gotta bring ass to get ass.

by SpurredOn on Sep 4, 2010 12:05 PM PDT up reply actions  

Bruce Davis (could be on the roster next year if Lawson departs)
K. Mitchell (I think he then makes the roster next season)
W. Tukuafu
J. Caulcrick
K. Jurovich
M. Bologun
Tramain Brock (once he’s cut to make room for some new signing on the main roster).
Someone yet to be named. Otherwise, Jarrett Brown.

Hmmm you like Davis

I trust you immensely which makes me wonder why you have him on there.

by ChesapeakeBay9er on Sep 4, 2010 12:25 PM PDT up reply actions  

Davis is a

guy who had trouble adapting from de to olb. He is starting make the adjustment. Davis has loads of talent and very high motor. I expect to see him in a 49er uniform at some point if they can hold onto him.

by rileyg1 on Sep 4, 2010 12:30 PM PDT up reply actions  

This

Davis was flying all around the field the little action he saw. It’s worth keeping him on the practice squad to see if we can develop that skill

I don’t imagine that for example the Colts PS has many in the way of Olinemen.

DT Derek Walker
DT Khalif Mitchell
LB Bruce Davis
but i only really care about Bruce Davis and Brit Miller

by Smallone20 on Sep 4, 2010 2:15 PM PDT reply actions  

cut Bobby Guillory.

add Chris Maragos or Keaton Kristick.

Brown Won't Make it

With the team keeping Davis as the 3rd string QB, Brown serves no real use on the PS unless they are going to try and convert him to another position. Davis will play the opposing QB on the scout team. I also don’t think the team keeps Guillory after his troubles with handling punts.

As for my list, I think the team keeps the following, assuming they don’t get some other guys who have been waived (which I think is probably likely however)

FB Brit Miller – Great ST guy and still developing at FB
WR Kevin Jurovich – Potential slot guy with good quickness, return ability
TE J.J. Finley – Back up in case any of our TE’s get injured. Almost made the squad last year
OT Matt Kopa – Can’t have too many OT prospects to try and develop
DE Will Tukuafu – Another guy for DL depth. One guy that I’m not totally sure will make it.
DT Khalif Mitchell – Can play all 3 DL positions. Could be a call up if injuries hit
LB Keaton Kristick – One guy I wasn’t completely sure of. Needs to add weight, but plays on the inside. I think the team is more likely to give Wilhelm a call before they bring him up.
LB Bruce Davis – Another good LB that can get to the QB, but needs to add some weight

by HaloFanInDC on Sep 4, 2010 2:36 PM PDT reply actions  

We have our blocking TE

I don’t think there’s a chance Finley gets picked.

Kopa might make it.

I think we leave 4 or 5 slots for other teams rejects.

Miller will not make the team according to sources, and by sources i mean the homeless crazy cat lady that sleeps next to the library.

by mikeinsp on Sep 4, 2010 4:57 PM PDT up reply actions  

and by team i mean practice squad

Chris Maragos, Kevin Jurovich….!!

by Edggy on Sep 5, 2010 7:11 AM PDT reply actions  

Only two guys that really got my attention...

There are only two guys that were waived that really got my attention during the preseason…Eill Tukuafu and Bruce Davis. Adding these two to the squad is a must.

Caulcrick and Khalif Mitchell are worthy as well, but I don’t feel as good about these guys as I do with Davis and Tukuafu.

My 5 would be:

Tukuafu
Davis
Mitchell
Caulcrick
Jarrett Brown – only because he adds a dimension that none of our other QB’s have.
