Lewis and Lewis to Battle
When the 49ers signed free-agent safety Michael Lewis earlier this month, many assumed Lewis and Mark Roman would be awarded the two starting spots in the team’s defensive backfield.
Not so fast, said Nolan, who insisted three-year veteran Keith Lewis would get a chance to win a starting role this summer. The Sacramento native’s insertion into the starting lineup in Week 9 last season coincided with the team’s defensive resurgence, and he finished second on the team in tackles.
“Keith is used to competition,” Nolan said. “He’s been brought up, he’s been knocked down. Competition doesn’t scare him. I like that about him.”

49ers sign LB Bockwoldt
March 19, 2007
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Linebacker Colby Bockwoldt signed with the San Francisco 49ers on Monday.
I posted this because I never saw an official annoucement on this site.
Your right I saw the news ticker at Sportscenter flash the announcement last night.
LOL! Rams signed Mike Rumph.
Niners are building up there special teams with these lb’s.
RT will be A. Snyder
Kato June is not a 3/4 LB he’s smaller than M.Lewis.
We will be fine with LAWSON,MOORE,WILLIS, AND CoCain,R.Green,Parys Haralson fighting it out for the other LB spot.

is there any news on us getting darrel jackson?
check out 49ersmaniacs.santaclara.net/rumors/trades. HUGE rumor just floated that san fran is tradin kwame harris and a second round pick for takeo spikes
Pintor….I like your ideas except I would one more 3rd on a d tackle as well as another 4th. We need to acqure as many of our future d linemen as possible through this draft so Bryant Young can not only teach them the ropes, but teach them how to get their heads right. Also, I agree with getting ONE more corner, but what if Darius Walker is STILL available at that position you wrote about? Hicks is as good as gone. Let’s bring in some young legs.
By the way, that would be an extremely DUMB trade. I say that only because of the cost of a second rounder. For that we could at least get Darrell Jackson or someone that isn’t going down hill. DJAX had one of his best years yet last season. We should acquire him AND get rid of Kwame as well (he, he…suckers) Takeo Spikes has NO MORE than two GOOD years left in him.
Also, Pintor….no offense because you have the linebacker thing pretty much handled, but unless Haralson has some BREAK OUT YEAR TBC will start. The fight is pretty much between Haralson and TBC, but TBC has put up an impressive year with the Pats in the AFC. Haralson has his years at Tennessee to brag about at this point. I hope he comes out and busts some heads, but TBC is looking like the missing piece to Lawson, Moore, Willis, and ?????. The question is….which combo do you like best from the draft…..Landry and Harris in the first two rounds, Willis and Harris, or Willis and Rice???? Also, Landry and Rice could work…what do you guys think??
If we draft Landry then we ARE going to draft a WR or ILB in the second.
Have you guys even seen that stuff on the blog about Gore….things heated up A LITTLE I guess. I kind of agree that he should prove himself for another season and we should sign him before the season even ends, but it is STILL tampering with fire in my opinion.
the only way haralson will have a breakout year is if he doesnt get hurt b4 the season even starts like he did last year then hurt again during the season
MAN..NOW DRAFT PATIRCK WILLIS…….GOSH DAMN…A FUCKIN 4.37 ON THA 40 YARD DASH…ITS A MUST..FUCK CJ….WE TALK BOUT HIM 2 MUCH..BUT U KNO DAMN WELL IT AINT GON HAPPEN…DONT GET ME WRONG HE A GOOD PLAYER..BUT IT AINT GON HAPPEN..OUR POSSIBILITY 4 A TOPFLIGHT PLAYER..IS PATRICK WILLIS..AND HW WEARS THA NUMBER 49..SHIT ITS A SIGN…IM FUCKIN SERIOUS…HE IS THA MISSIN PEICE 2 OUR 49ER RISE..
He wont be there when it is our turn, but we can hope.
WITH KEITH LEWIS AND MICHAEL LEWIS in the line up, we are able to play “BIG NICKEL.” The NFC WEST teams are very pass happy. Instead of having CHAD WILLIAMS in the box, it will be either Lewis’s that can either handle the run or the pass.
