Report: 49ers to Host Marshall DE Mike Green on Top-30 Visit
“Green might be the second-best pass rusher in the draft after Abdul Carter. He has an explosive first few steps and can bend extremely well which allows him to turn the corner and sack the quarterback. He’s similar to a young Dee Ford.
Keep in mind, the 49ers once traded a second-round pick for an older, broken-down Dee Ford. That’s because Robert Saleh wants a speed rusher to complement Nick Bosa, who’s a methodical power rusher. When Ford was on the field, he frequently would be the first defensive lineman in the backfield so he would force the quarterback to move and hold the ball an extra beat which would give Bosa and the other defensive linemen more time to make the sack.
