Rookie defensive tackles Alfred Collins and CJ West are already making noise at 49ers training camp. If their early flashes hold, San Francisco may have found the dominant duo it’s been missing up front.

Early indications are Pinnock, 26, will step in as a starting safety when the 49ers open the regular season on Sept. 7 in Seattle. With Malik Mustapha sidelined while rehabbing an ACL tear, Pinnock and third-year player Ji’Ayir Brown are running with the first team.
