His NFL dot com Draft Profile reads:
Instincts and awareness are well below average for the college game. Can be seen sprinting back into coverage on run plays and will drift around lost in zone coverage at times. Slow to diagnose and attack. Will take a poor angle into his run fit and lose leverage.

Hopefully he can read low hat high hat after 2 years in the league.
Damnit what niner was it a few years ago that chased the PA running back? He looked like he was running from the ball carrier.

Was it Tank Carradine? Not sure. I'm sure Nzeocha improved a bit in this area, but the point of that scouting report is that he entered the NFL with a very low level of understanding of the LB position.

AA does that every play pretty much.

No surprise here.

Now I'm going to have to go back and watch him play more closely. We need a film review. LOL

He had a play or two that caught my eye late the Houston game. Gonna re-watch it tonight.

Harald had just not improved in his time here. Better to invest some time in Nzeocha than continue hoping for the leopard to change his spots with Eli.

It is just a publicity move.

#49ers LB Mark Nzeocha has family in Frankfurt, Germany. He said he goes back there once a year and a camera crew from over there visited here for a day of training camp. He's like the David Hasselhoff of the NFL.

Didn't even get the tackle. The RB didn't have the ball at the time.

He will get cut and we may sign someone who gets cut from another team.
