Yes maybe but we play 3 LB's a bit so he is going to have to play and step up.

Not sure, but Greenlaw was the one out there once Kwon went down.
Azeez will probably split reps with Nzeocha at SAM, which doesn't mean much since SAM plays like 2 snaps a game.

Yeah, heavy emphasis on a bit. They play 3 LBs on the field for only a small number of reps.

Not against the Seahawks. They will definitely test our base defense.

Gotcha. So you think they'll sign someone to back up Greenlaw rather than give Azeez a shot at those reps?

Seahawks are predominantly 11 personnel team. 49ers match 11 personnel with nickel ie only 2 LBs.

I like Azeez better than Greenlaw cuz of his speed. Hope he comes up big.

Azeez has closing speed, good instincts, and likes to thump
