I'm not arguing AT ALL that Reeder is better than Jones.. it's obvious to all of us on here. But they indicated he would be used in a limited way this weekend.Jones is better than Reeder.
My thought on three LBers is threefold. 1. The Niners haven't played as well against teams with three linebackers. 2. Rapp may be out. So I’d rather see Howard and Jones in. 3. Small backup DBs don’t fare too against big pass catchers.
I know Jones may be used sparingly due to his ankle. I hope he’s a full go. He took over in the middle before his injury.
I guess we could see that at times. Floyd isn't great dropping into coverage.. Howard and Jones could get to the flat.. but.. they'd have to hold the edge.
We'll see!
