The 49ers jumped on top early early at MetLife Stadium notching a FG by Jordan Gay, who surprisingly still has a job after last weeks meltdown going 0-4.  On the following drive Jets quarterback Geno Smith throws and INT into the waiting hand of rookie CB DJ Woods giving him 2 interceptions on the year.  Woods also finished with 7 tackles and has been great in run support so far this season.  49ers QB Matt Mullins capitalized on the turnover leading a drive down the shortene...

RG  Deontae Priester   6'5"  305 lbs.  Georgia Tech  74 ovr

When the 49ers took Priester in the 4th they knew they were going to have to work on building his lower body strength.  While their plan might not materialize with him hitting 40 reps on his bench,  he makes up with his...

LT Griffen Barclay   6'4"  308 lbs.   Cincinnati    74 ovr

Griffen Barclay played RT at Cincinnati but is being moved to the left side of the line to serve as veteran All-Pro Joe Staley's backup.  He's solid in r...

After their week 1 win in Tampa Bay the 49ers played host to their divisional rival Seahawks in what is always a hard fought blue collar, nasty game of football.  The excitement and energy of the home opening crowd was tempered in the 1st quarter when Seattle rookie HB Andrew Felton capped off an impressive drive with a 4 yard scamper to the outside for the 7-0 lead. 

Russell Wilson was able to put together effecient drives throughout the game, but was never able to re...

HB  David Cofield    5"9"  229 lbs   Wyoming  81 ovr

Playing for a smaller program like Wyoming mostly kept Cofield off the national radar when compared to some of his peers such as Felton or Roach.  No matter where you're from, Wyoming to Texas, this running back has first round talent written all over him.</...

QB  Mason Mullins   6'2" 220 lbs  Texas A&M  83 ovr

The 49ers felt that the top of the quarterback class was rich for the first two rounds and by taking CB Woods with the first pick, they thought there would be a good chance of Mullins still being around for their 2nd pick.  When you look back on his illustrious care...

CB  D.J. Woods   6'1" 212 lbs. LSU   80 ovr

Hailing from LSU, D.J. Woods is a big, strong, fast lockdown corner.  He already exhibits a pro level-like understanding of man(86) and zone(87) coverage assignments and can matchup physically with any WR in the league.  He has a large frame, standing over 6 feet tall and weighing over 200 lbs, with...

     For the first game of his professional career, rookie 2nd round QB,  Mason Mullins looked fearless against a tough Bucs defense.  On a rain soaked field in Tampa Bay the young left handed gunslinger threw for 267 yrds and 3 TD's while throwing no interceptions.

     The Bucs put a touchdown on the board first with a 77 yard bomb to TE A. Seferion-Jenkins.  A FG followed that a drive later and it was 10-0.  Following a la...
