If K. Lewis stays, who goes?

Recently signed S Keith Lewis was a special team standout with the 49ers. If he can impress enough to help our ailing special teams and keep his job after Wesley returns then who goes? Who can we release that could be expendable without serious depth concerns?

If Lewis plays well, we may keep him because remember...we do not have another legit safety behind Harris.

We have too many corners and frankly, Martin is a project. I think we could put him on the practice squad. I seriously doubt he'll get picked up. Either that or Martin could get a hangnail and get IRed.

i'm not sure who should be released but, imo, wesley is now a must for special teams. you know that returners are going to be worried about him getting there. gunners are supposed to strike fear in the heart of the returner and make them not want to touch that ball. who better than someone who was just suspended for knocking another returner out? wesley was less than a half second form having a clean hit. if lewis can do a good job as a gunner then no way should we let him go. keep him and wesley and cut some underachiever on the roster. as poorly as we have covered punts we need to have gunners who can at least make the returner hesitate.

Only person I see him conceivably threatening is Quinton Teal, but I too think he's a temp.
this would be the right call...giving teal the boot in favor of lewis. teal is pretty useless. he's not a good special teamer and he's not a good safety at all. if you can't do one or the other well then you shouldn't be on the team.

      Would you just fuging quit trying to make us like him? That is his job, not yours.  Thank you.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
