A bit shocked because why are we paying Richburg all that money, unless he’s still injured (or fell off)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's enough to just point at the list of guys and say, "these are all wide receivers". This is almost like the Bears tight end situation at this point if Deebo is out. Right, but if we have Deebo back early, then the loss of Hurd is just meh. Having Deebo/Aiyuk/Taylor/Bourne is more than enough. If Deebo is out for like say 4-6 weeks, then obviously that becomes a problem. While many had high hopes for Hurd, it's not like he was guaranteed to have a huge role on the team or anything.

The injury he had last year is not a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Deebo is on NFI & Hurd is on IR, i'm guessing we'll start off the season Aiyuk/Bourne/Taylor/Jennings. And one of James/Austin as our KR. We'd have to really rely on Kittle/Reed and our run game to get us through. Hopefully McKinnon is healthy this year...seems like Shanny really values his skillset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully McKinnon is healthy this year...seems like Shanny really values his skillset It would not be wise to count on Reed in any capacity. Dude has been out of football for a year and has NEVER been healthy for a full 16 game season. No one should be counting on him as a contributor. Anything he gives us should be looked at as a bonus, not expected. I'd lean much more heavily on Dwelley developing into a legit #2 TE than I would Reed returning to his Pro Bowl form. Hurd's injury sucks but its not like he was expected to be a big contributor. If anything it gives Jennings an opportunity to make the team and fill that big slot role. I firmly expect Deebo back by Week 4 at the latest, barring any setbacks. I think we'll be fine if we can remain healthy. Especially if Jet is fully healthy,. He adds a dimension out of the backfield we haven't had, which can take some of the load off the receivers. No need to be concerned about the WRs....yet anyway.

49erurtaza Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 (edited) Can Pettis actually get a role again? He has the opportunity right now. Edited August 18, 2020 by 49erurtaza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

49erurtaza Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 (edited) Seems like #2 spot is between Mosley and Verrett. So Mosley going to be the starter then. Any chance we trade Weatherspoon for a bag of chips? Edited August 18, 2020 by 49erurtaza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the new DB coach isn't a fan of Verrett...he got burnt early on in TC (not sure if thats still the case) and obviously had one of the worst years any player could have last year...he'll really need to bring it to overtake Moseley.

Not many teams can throw out a 4th string outside corner who's actually flashed the ability to shut down a receiver 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
