Better have a plan if we're adding another WR.
I expect the 49ers to outbid Seattle because the NFL knows they can outbid Seattle by offering more than 35 cents, but sometimes I wonder, with all due respect, if you're just trolling people with all the confidence you have in our remaining pass-catchers.
Doug Baldwin (double-covered now) <----- This isn't true.
Tyler Lockett (lost a step)<------Will be another year removed from that nasty injury.
Amara Darboh<---------High upside 3rd round pick.
Tanner McEvoy <---- Meh
David Moore<-----Unpolished larger Golden Tate. We cut Dwight Freeney to keep him.
Cyril Grayson<-------Speed, but likely a long ways away. Also another smaller WR.
Marcus Johnson<-----Speed guy with some NFL experience. Possibly our 5th WR
Luke Willson is not under contract.
Nick Vannett
Tyrone Swoopes
That's one of those 2009-2011 situations that gets people going "Can we have an actual playmaker?"
First, if Doug Baldwin isn't an actual playmaker then he's overpayed and needs to be dealt. He IS a playmaker though.
I do think that Darboh and Moore make big leaps. Again, both were getting on the field at the end of the year even with a healthy Paul Richardson. That's telling.
We need a TE very badly. Vannett and Swoopes are the only TEs we have under contract right now. Conversely, Carson and Prosise are the only RBs we have under contract right now.
We have A LOT of holes to fill. I'd imagine there's a plan for that and while I've thought that Jordy Nelson's ability to adjust to any type of pass is only second to Larry Fitzgerald, Doug Baldwin is going to make $11.9 Million damn dollars in 2018.
How much money do you want to invest in the WR position when we're insanely thin at RB, insanely thin at TE, and then there's also the OL issue that 99% of .NET has been complaining about for how long now? On top of that we need depth at every level of the defense.
Where is your money going? You can't make these decisions in a bubble. On top of that, investing heavily in skill positions like WR and TE are for different types of offenses with pure pocket passers.
No, I'm not trolling. I'm being one of the few rational, logical people here.
