Jimmie Ward Updates
http://www.baysportsnet.com/jimmie-ward-...rback-job/

When asked if the nickel cornerback job is close to being resolved, Vic Fangio mentioned Jimmie Ward first.
“Well, Jimmie’s doing a good job out there,” said the San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator.
The 49ers landed Ward with the No. 30 overall pick in the 2014 draft.
“Obviously Jimmie’s made nice progress and progresses every day. He’s not a final product by any means yet. But, he learns well, doesn’t repeat mistakes and has shown good skill level there. So, we’re very hopeful there.”

First-round pick DB Jimmie Ward

The 30th overall section in this year's NFL Draft had one of the best debuts from a rookie I've ever seen. I'd say it was the best. Ward intercepted a tipped Colin Kaepernick pass and looked aggressive as a nickel cornerback and safety for the rest of the opening camp session. Ward's physical style of play has carried over to his recent on-field work. On Sunday, Ward lined up as the first-team nickel cornerback, and he intercepted a Josh Johnson pass. Ward tipped the ball up in the air, tracked it in the air, and made his second interception of camp. In addition to his slot defensive work, Ward has been playing second-team safety and has been working as a gunner during special teams periods.

Jimmie - the king of INTs!

Sounds like he is doing a good job out there. Would be awesome if he made the 53 man roster.

He's guaranteed a spot on the 53 man roster since he was drafted within the first 4 rounds...

...I know that? I was stating that all picks within the first 4 rounds are guaranteed a spot on the 53 man roster.

Thanks RedandBlack. I don't know a lot of the NFL/draft etc. I'm learning more all the time.
I hope i get a chance to see him play. Don't get a lot of 49ers games here.
