49ers trade for DT Maliek Collins

He rushes the passer well. His tape says that and so do his ratings. What we aren't seeing is how he plays the run. His run defense ratings were slightly better than Kinlaw's (45 vs 35) but neither were very good.

He has a history of being available. Though Kinlaw played a lot this past season, there is still the stories about arthritic knees and recurrence of past problems. Hnece, Collins is a healthier version of Kinlaw.

I think some are under-rating Kinlaw and overrating Collins. My opinion. I hope Collins kills it but I see a situational player on passing downs.

They aren't the same player at all. Not the same size. Collins is by far more twitchy than Kin. Pad level is better. Technique is better.

you have to look at as what are they asked to do. Our scheme much like Ryans is one gap penetrating. It's not a 2 gapping scheme where your job is to plug holes and eat up blocks. It about beating your block and getting to the running back/QB. Stopping the run is just as much about our LBers as it is our DL.

so no I completely disagree he's a healthier Knlaw.

Sounds like folks want a 330lb fat NT that just takes up space. You don't have to spend up for that. That's a situational player. Being able to rush the passer from the interior is vastly more important.

I know several of you are saying draft and to a point I agree, but how has that really worked out for us the last few years. Mckivitz mah, Burford straight trash, Banks ok but still up and down, and the rest cannot break a starting line up with only one really good linemen. Every year they address the dline when the secondary and o-line have remained a weakness.

No every draft is created equal. This OL class top to bottom is one of the best classes in the past 15 yrs.

Also who the hell was there in FA? You want to be hunt $100M? Those OG got massively overpaid. There wasn't s**t at OT.

when you have a good lineman you resign them.

Which will be comedy when we let Banks walk next year.

I thought you've said plenty of times that Banks isn't that good? So you want to resign a player that you don't think is that good? Can you make up your mind for once lol. Btw have you ever looked into split personality disorder?

No idea if he's good or not. He started out great and then fell off a cliff. I'm assuming since this is his contract year, he'll be at his best.

My bigger point is, even though this regime loves to resign its own, it's hard to imagine them paying market value for a G.

Do you think they'd resign him if he plays really well?

Haha...nothing to be split on in believing they need(ed) to make the OL a priority year after year.

He'll only be good the minute he signs elsewhere. Just like Tomlinson.

If they keep him he'll be terrible again.

Maliek seems like an awesome person to have in the lockerroom after seeing some interviews. Crazy that he wrestled in high school and won state going 48-0.

I want every football player that was a bad ass wrestler on my team.
