Golden Nuggets: Eric Reid completes draftee signings

Saturday, July 6th, 2013 edition of the Golden Nuggets, a daily compilation of San Francisco 49ers links from around the Internet.

Jason O. Watson

So the San Francisco 49ers locked up their 2013 NFL Draft class with the signing of first-round pick Eric Reid on Friday. Obviously, with the new collective bargaining agreement, these things are of little actual concern in regards to getting done, as there is now a wage scale in place. That said, it just feels a lot better with everyone under contract and ready to go.

I have high expectations for Reid. He wasn't my first choice at the safety position when it comes to the rookies, but I always thought Dashon Goldson was a little overrated and the 49ers picked the absolute best time to draft his replacement. Last year's draft was the strongest safety class in years, and Reid has as good a chance as anybody to excel and live up to that particular hype.

On to the links for the day.
