Tue Jun 12 2012 | 21:37 | DE Dobbs seeing snaps at tight end |
49ers DE Demarcus Dobbs has been seeing snaps at tight end in minicamp. |
Dobbs saw limited snaps after making the 49ers as an undrafted free agent last season, but was used on kickoff coverage in the playoffs. He boasts impressive athleticism for his 6-foot-6, 275 pound frame, but it's doubtful he'd be used as more than an extra blocker if he sees time on offense. |

Fri Feb 3 2012 | 14:03 | 49ers used DE Dobbs on kickoff coverage |
The 49ers used rookie DE Demarcus Dobbs on kickoff coverage in the playoffs. |
It's a pretty impressive feat for a defensive lineman who weighs between 275 and 282 pounds. Dobbs, an undrafted rookie out of Georgia, had two sacks in the preseason before playing a limited defensive role behind Justin Smith, Ray McDonald, and Ricky Jean-Francois during the regular season. Dobbs' athleticism could lead him toward a bigger role in 2012. |
