Reuben Foster – ILB – Alabama

Let’s be honest; The 49ers are a really bad team and even if the entire roster had stayed healthy, they would still be one of the worst teams in the league this year.

Let’s be honest again; NaVorro Bowman’s injury against the Cowboys was a death sentence for this team. The 49ers are on pace to give up over 500 points and over 3,000 yards rushing this season.

Let me repeat that…

3,000 yards rushing.

The 49ers need to address the issue. 3,000 yards rushing is an absolute embarrassment. Trying to think of how that is even possible in a 16 game season is mental punishment, and I’m done having my mind punished. The 49ers need to revamp their run defense if they want to get back to playing competitive football. Not winning, just competitive. Lets not get ahead of our selves now….

Reuben Foster would be a great start.

They guy has been the leader and enforcer of the Alabama defense for the last two years.

Alabama defense, ever heard of them?

Foster is intimidating. One of the hardest hitters in college football, Foster has made a name for himself and is one of the most physically impressive players in the upcoming draft.

Foster is exactly what the 49ers need. A insanely talented inside linebacker who is a vocal leader, intimidating physical force and a potential all-pro for years to come.

Oh yea…..and he makes stuff like this….
