Sakamoto: 49ers’ Zone Blocking Scheme Impacted G Zane Beadles Coming To San Francisco

Yesterday afternoon, I had the opportunity to meet San Francisco 49ers LG Zane Beadles during a conference call. A player who was shocked and surprised by his release from the Jacksonville Jaguars, after inking a long term five-year deal, Beadles found himself on the free-agent market looking for a potential suitor — and the 49ers did not hesitate to pull the trigger.

I asked Beadles on playing in ZBS and how much that impacted his decision in coming to SF: “It was a big deal for me, it fits my strengths.”
