49ers add depth at offensive tackle by signing Isaiah Prince
“The San Francisco 49ers have reportedly signed veteran offensive tackle Isaiah Prince, according to the player’s agency. He was among several players the 49ers worked out on Sunday.”
How 49ers rookie CJ West is learning from Nick Bosa’s ‘deliberate’ approach
“Honestly, it’s both,” West when asked if he seeks out Bosa’s advice or if the veteran shares it on his own accord. “There was one practice where he was watching me get off and he was like,
‘Hey just keep doing that every single rep.’ If you just focus on getting off the ball, you’ll be OK.”
“The San Francisco 49ers today announced that the team has signed WR Robbie Chosen to a one-year deal.”
Re-ranking the 49ers’ rookie class: 3 undrafted players make the top 10 (paywall)
“No rookie defensive tackle in the Kyle Shanahan-John Lynch era has looked this good this early, including 2017 pick D.J. Jones, who’s built a lot like West but was a bit of a late bloomer. West has an NFL-ready bull rush as evidenced by the way he’s routinely knocked guards and centers backward in one-on-one drills. The 49ers are eager to see him build more moves onto that foundation. Something to monitor: Despite how conspicuous West has been in one-on-one situations, second-round pick Collins typically enters ahead of him in the defensive line rotation.”
Did 49ers sign QB Carter Bradley because of his arm or last name? Gus Bradley explains (paywall)
“I’m not going to lie — I’m still a parent and he’s here,” Bradley said. “I thought it would be constantly looking and, ‘How’s he doing?’ But it really is not that. You can’t watch what’s happening with the offense and still watch the whole defense. … But there might be a time where we’re watching practice on tape and you’re like, ‘Oh, there’s a play. Isn’t that Carter? ’ Those things take place. For me to sit here and say no there’s none of that, that would be inaccurate.”
Gus Bradley, a longtime NFL defensive coordinator who was the Jaguars’ head coach from 2013-16, says he rarely has discussed strategy with his son. Instead, their football conversations are about dealing with ups and downs, such as how Carter would handle the disappointment of being waived by the Raiders last month.
“We have conversations like that, not ‘OK, this is quarters (coverage) and this is how teams are playing it,’” Bradley said. “I’ve rarely had those conversations with him. The big part of it is ‘What can you learn from this? You’re coming out to a situation where you’re working out with a team and I’m in the building. Can you put that aside and go compete to be your best?’”
