Coach thought he had a good one when the 49ers picked Reggie Smith in the Expects to Play Sunday third round out of Oklahoma in 2008. Wants to Return to Redskins in 2011 Things didn't click right away when Smith was asked to move from cornerback to safety, but it seems that Smith could be on the verge of breaking out.

His 91-yard return against Indianapolis for a last week was just the latest sign that Smith is maturing, as was his knocking down of a goal-line pass.

It was an encouraging performance for a player who was limited by injuries last year and who was on the inactive list for six weeks thanks to a groin problem. "I see a more confident player,'' Singletary told the San Jose Mercury News. "I see a player that really is beginning to understand what we're trying to do on the backend, all of the little detailed things.

"The word 'detail' comes up a lot and that's the thing that we're stressing. We have to know what exactly we're doing; we have to know exactly what the calls are, exactly who we're working with. We can't be guessing.''

San Francisco will continue to start Dashon Goldson at free safety, but now the 49ers have some confidence they have a backup who's ready if needed. NFL HOT TOPICS

"What I've seen in Reggie this year, even starting in OTAs, was just a confidence factor,'' Eagles vs. Texans Jim Leonhard Injury Singletary told the paper. "Some guys, they come in as rookies and they're ready to go; other guys it takes them a little longer. I really like what I see in him.'' Fantasy Football Week 13 Rankings
