Essentially Bullard was drafted to play that same role Ray McDonald played in Fangio's SF defenses. Bullard is a very similar player. About the same size, plays the run well and can add some pressure and sacks. I think by years end he has a good chance of being another of Pace's All Rookie team picks because I think he's gonna see a lot of snaps this year.

If he is to be a player like McDonald, hopefully Bullard can stay out of trouble.

Seriously, he doesn't seem to have any character issues.

His burst off the ball and his snap recognition are impressive. I have a feeling he's going to be flagged quite a bit this year though for neutral zone infractions.

Boring ole me really wants to see him do something special when he doesn't get that early jump on o-lineman to see how he stands up when challenged for leverage at the point of attack.

Yeah, I shoulda said Ray McDonald without the baggage.

After that fiasco and the deal with Ratliff last year Pace seems to be avoiding any of the more questionable types either in FA or the draft. He's leaving those guys for the Bengals and the Cowboys.

He's billed as being a very strong player physically too so we'll see. He's gonna need that as well because he's the smallest guy on that DL. He's much closer to being Aaron Donald size than he is Akeim Hicks size.
