49ers Special Teams All Pro George Odum

If Moody keeps kicking it into the endzone, and Wishy continues to punt well, shouldn't that de-prioritize the need to pay a premium for ST gunners? I guess not.

Shouldn't be paying "special team studs" and was he even that good?

they have a million day 3 picks. If you're incapable of running down the field and tackling someone, you shouldn't be in the NFL anyway.

the rules are making guys like him not matter at all. So we're basically resetting the market for STers and FBs cool

Remember that the 49ers dropped from #15 to #25 DVOA in 2023. The loss of George Odum down the stretch was a contributing factor. Returning to at least the middle of the pack on ST is key for 2024 and beyond, hence the Odum extension

If you're going to have the top special teams player in terms of salary; wouldn't it make sense that player is a kicker, punter, or returner?

He's not that good. Mostert was a far better special teams player. And there's a ton of safeties in the draft.

Surprised you're saying this. UP TO 10 mil WB, he's an absolute stud on special teams and good to have in our young safety room.

Where? When? Why?

Has he galvanized our coverage groups to be elite? No. He's not even a gunner.

He has 22 solo tackles in his two years here. Zero forced fumbled.

He's not supremely fast. I can't remember a single hit of his that set a tone.

WHAT THE HECK ARE PEOPLE SEEING WITH THIS GUY?!

He's like the inverse of Grant Cohn.

I agree. Filling in these type of positions with draft picks is the way to go and saves big on money. It's just not worth the small impact. These type of contracts add up
