Manningham is coming off a gruesome injury, Williams is not nor has ever been anything special, a step above guys like Joe Hastings. It comes down to Jenkins vs Patton for the #3 spot IMO, especially if Manningham takes a long time to recover, if he ever fully makes it back.
I completely disagree about Williams, he was doing really well especially with Kap at QB. I'm not saying Patton can't win the #3 spot, just saying there's going to be some fierce competition. (which is good)
I don't understand the Kyle Williams hate. He's got really fast feet and is extremely agile. I've seen him make some really impressive catches and he had two great seasons. Granted, he lost us the NFCCG, and then this last year he got hurt. But before those unfortunate things happened, he had great seasons.

what exactly is a great season to you? cause crabs had 85 catches for a little over 1100 yards and i would consider that a good season.. lol

You know we were looking for receivers off the street last year right... Instead of Jenkins. He wasn't injured he was just not good enough to be considered an option. He was a first round draft pick that was considered too raw to even run routes instead lets put Joe Hastings on the field. My regard for AJ is the a combo of draft position and signs of zero confidence by the 49ers. He was a huge reach and I hoped and watch all year. I'm done hoping I'll just go with my initial response... Why did we draft a worse version of mario mannigham.
But this ain't about him really so I should of just left him out. If He touches the field I will support him completely and cheer like crazy for beating the pundits (including me ) Now Quinton Patton (GENERAL) is not a strange pick he was a great pick. He makes all the catch's and beat the best cornerback on great teams consistently. He still has to prove himself. But I can buy in to him now more than I could AJ ever.

I admit, I didn't know s**t about this kid pre-draft. Sorry, but I don't get around to watching too many Louisiana Tech games... But, from the highlights (which are supposed to be his best plays) I somewhat agree with JC. Maybe I'm missing something?
He just looks okay. He doesn't seem that fast, explosive, etc. And, relative to NFL standards, his size is average.
I only watched the Texas A&M game. He had a big day, but I didn't find it as impressive as the numbers thought. It was hard to evaluate his ability to translate to the NFL, because a lot of his catches were just screens and sitting in the zone where he was left wide open because it was such a blowout.
When he catches it, he point the ball backwards.

Looking for receivers off the street? You have a flare for the dramatic, or maybe a talent for embellishing the truth. One thing is for sure, we will find out on the field this year about AJ's future. As I said, ist would be good if both of these guys turned out great ... because Crabs will be gone at the end of this contract I think.

They have to find someone to pick on. I thought Kyle Williams was having a nice season last year and hope he continues to grow. Hope he can stay on as a number 4 or 5 receiver. He'd actually bring more to the table than Ted Ginn would even though he isn't as good as a returner.

Its hard to judge a WR until they face real NFL corners. You could tell off the bat Crabtree was legit. He was taking corners to school with his cuts.

Practice squad players are on the street as anyone can pick them up at any time just by moving them to the active roster. So yeah on the street. Think about it seriously. A practice squad undrafted rookie and not the 1st rounder made it on the field. Maybe it was meant as motivation to the underperformer but that's some serious you better get off your butt message.

Kind of sad that some of us are more excited about our 4th round receiver than our 1st last year
