His NFL comparison is Chris long. That's probably a pretty damn good one and I'll admit I haven't watched a full game of chubb. I've just read a s**t ton and heard of a lil discussions on projections etc.. But see that's what I kinda think in my head, Chris long was a damn solid 3 down player.. But he was never GREAT in all capitals as far as pass rushing goes.
So, do we REALLY NEED that? I dunno, my gut says no and take Landry who SEEMS to have the higher ceiling as a pure pass rusher. You know, when we need it most on 3rd downsWe already have personnel for a solid base package IMO.
Feel free and jump in anyone,thought this is a good post for people to help chime in with thoughts... Would love to hear guys opinion who have watched tape on him,like atleast two games would be cool lol.
My thoughts are, if we get Chubb (very low probability of that) with Solomon Thomas at 3-tech, that still would be a very formidable pass rush combo. Keep in mind we have Pita still on the team and by all reports he's hes developing nicely. He's kind of like a very raw Landry last year that's why he went in the 6th round. If we have Pita coming off the right edge and Buckner, Solomon and Chubb rounding off all the other pass rush positions, I think that is a top pass rush line right there. Draft experts, please correct me if I'm off base.
Yeah it's really hard to think about what our staff sees in Pita and Jimmie Gilbert.
Pita and Gilbert - I agree, they are huge development picks. The potential is there (after reading their scouting reports) but until they get on the field that's all theory. What the 49ers see in either of them is a guess and your guess is going to be better than mine, that's for sure. But I'm hoping Pita can show something in pre-season to justify him staying on the team, that way he'll add possible LEO depth to Cassius and Attauchu, and possibly at the SAM position too. We shall see...
