Eric Reid – S, San Francisco 49ers #18 Overall
Eric Reid is entering a unique situation in San Francisco, and will be facing some unreasonably high expectations. #1 – Reid is taking over for departed pro bowl safety Dashon Goldson, a daunting task on its own. #2 – the 49ers traded their #31 pick and the 71st pick in round 3 in order to move up and secure Reid, an interesting move considering the strength and depth of the 2013 safety class. #3 – the 49ers have a Super Bowl contending team and Reid will be expected to produce right away, fair or not, the 49ers are looking to the LSU rookie to make an impact from day 1. Likely pairing with strong safety Donte Whitner, Reid will face little competition from CJ Spillman and veteran journeyman Craig Dahl. The 49ers have a very strong veteran presence in their secondary and Reid would be wise to soak up as much knowledge as possible from Carlos Rogers, Nnamdi Asomugha, and Whitner, all former first round picks.

Not having to be the guy who is the on field leader will let him do his thing. i think that is why he slowed down a little last year.

I think he will be great. He wasn't great last season but he's a good player that can succeed given the right circumstances (not that lsu wasn't)
