Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee, who has joined Matt Maiocco of the Santa Rosa Press Democrat as 49ers beat writers with great blogs, reports today that when asked about the possibility of new outside linebacker Tully Banta-Cain reaching 10 sacks this season, assistant head coach and Hall of Fame linebacker Mike Singletary didn't hold back.
"Ten would be the minimum," Singletary told Barrows. That's a strong statement considering Banta-Cain's career high in sacks was the 5.5 he had last year in a part-time role with the Patriots. Then again, that was a part-time role, so maybe 10+ isn't so far off.
And who's going to argue with this man, really?
TODAY IS THE
49ers' first intrasquad scrimmage of this year's training camp, and it could provide some interesting tidbits as far as position battles go. I'll likely be away from my computer the rest of the day, but be sure to check in on Matt and Matt, who I'm sure will both provide thorough updates afterward.
