  49ers | Three to compete for top backup ILB job    Fri Jul 9, 02:16 PM

San Francisco 49ers LBs Matt Wilhelm, Scott McKillop and Navorro Bowman will compete for the primary backup inside linebacker spot during training camp, reports Matt Maiocco, of CSNBayArea.com.

Footballguys view: We like Bowman in this battle, a fast, fierce LB who is more like Patrick Willis. The winner should be the heir to Takeo Spikes spot next to Willis in the base defense in a year or two. The spot isn't plum for IDP leagues, but it still provides enough stats to be serviceable depth in deep leagues.

  49ers | McKillop made team officials happier than any other draft pick    Tue Jun 30, 07:45 PM

Matt Barrows, of the Sacramento Bee, reports that the 49ers brass was "most jazzed" about fifth round linebacker Scott McKillop of all the team's draft picks. He expects McKillop to eventually start next to Patrick Willis at "Ted" linebacker.

Footballguys view: McKillop is a classic overachiever who has the grit and guile to overcome a lack of elite physical tools. Takeo Spikes was a decent LB3 in the position last year, so McKillop has enough expected future value to be carried in deep dynasty IDP leagues.

  49ers | McKillop, Jean-Francois sign contracts    Thu May 14, 04:40 PM

SF49ers.com reports the San Francisco 49ers have signed fifth-round draft choice LB Scott McKillop and seventh-round draft choice DL Ricky Jean-Francois to four-year contracts. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: These 2 rookies have a lot to prove and even though they were both drafted late it doesn't mean that they don't have talent. Ricky Jean-Francois flashed amazing playmaking skills and ability to harass the QB, but never played with any consistency at LSU. Scott McKillop has all the intangibles and toughness that you need to play in the middle, but does not have the range to be more than a tackle to tackle defender. It's questionable if either would ever start, but both could provide quality depth.
