So far six games into the season, Ebukam is not looking like a good FA signing at all considering how much the Niners gave him (2 yrs., $12M) and how little he's produced. As last night showed once again, he was practically invisible. I saw him covering a screen in the backfield in the first half, which was a rare play in which he was productive...I think I saw him a few more times maybe. Didn't see him in on any tackles.
If this guy was signed for the amount he was based on him being available/dependable and having a high motor, that only can take you so far in this league and so far we're seeing just that with his limited-to-no production game in and game out. As elguapo said above, would have much rather resigned Hyder and signed a proven CB like Hayward that's shown good ability in the past.
He was supposed to replace Dee Ford at DE on passing downs
Dee Ford miraculously healed his back
I saw Bosa at DT a few times on passing downs last night so maybe that is how we will try to get all 3 on the field at once
I agree on both Ford's shocking resurgence and Samson being a ghost so far.
