Morning, folks. James here with your daily links. Not a whole bunch of 'em today, but I am getting the post up just a bit early because for once I have something to do today and I need to steal an hour or so of sleep. As soon as I wake up I'll be scouring for more links before going about my business, so no need to be all on your own searching for news yourself--I'll update as quick as I can. The biggest thing to note for me is that Patrick Willis got a nice, full practice in. I was worried something was wrong with him, and that would've sucked majorly, I gotta tell you. I'm expecting him to help out S Michael Lewis in covering Jason Witten. That's all for me, now here's your links.
Michael Lewis is going to be covering TE Jason Witten come Monday. I gotta say I hope either Willis or Lawson is on him too--I'm not sure I have a ton of faith in Lewis on his own. (SFGate.com)
A little comparison between Isaac Sopoaga and Jay Ratliff of the Cowboys. This interests me solely because I forgot all about Spopaga, I was pumped for him at one point but he's continued to be unimpressive. Is that a position we need to look at come this offseason? Just maybe. (PressDemocrat.com)
