Golden Nuggets: Getting to know Nick Moody

Monday, July 15, 2013 edition of the Golden Nuggets, a daily compilation of 49ers links from around the web.

Nick Moody, special teams demon!

Another slow news day means another look at one of our incoming rookies. I chose Nick Moody because I absolutely love the fact that he chose to play on special teams in college because his coach told him that will probably be his best route to the pros. It worked. Sounds like exactly the kind of selfless player that Harbaalke loves to have. He didn't have a stellar senior year at middle linebacker for the FSU Seminoles, but he's been a ST standout. The 49ers, with the luxury of one billion draft picks, burned one on him to help upgrade a unit that failed them in epic fashion last season. There's four links for you. A draft profile, an article from the team website with an interview embedded, one about his switch from safety to middle linebacker from the Tallahassee paper and his post-draft prospect profile from Niners Nation. Enjoy!
