barrows mentions chris chambers in the article
Hmmm, that's a name I hadn't thought of. Chambers used to be a really solid receiver. A good #2 in Miami for a bit, but greatly tailed off after his career year in 2005. Hasn't been the same since. I don't know if I'd rather have him or Ziegler. He can block better than Zig, for sure, and made some circus catches in the past. But Zig runs routes well and obviously has great hands.
he was one fo the guys who worked out when morgan got hurt
The other name mentioned seems even more possible to me though:
Quote:Veterans Chris Chambers and Brian Finneran worked out for the 49ers earlier this year and also are possibilities.

I doubt we bring a Vet WR, that will not play muti pos. ie... TE/Slot Man/FB/H-Back, I think the guy we bring up from the PS can fill the most space, and already knows playbook.
We need help at the WR spot, someone who wants to catch balls
Paris Hilton?

One thing about our new front office.......they don't screw around. Edwards was a non-factor all season so they let him go. My guess is they bring back either Hill or Zeigler.

With Walker hurt I think Reuland will get called up. Joe Hastings is another guy that could get a shot. I don't think they will sign a FA this late into the season, and will rather go with a practice squad guy.

the 49ers really need the bye week off for the playoffs, the game vs the Rams is huge because I don't see NO losing this weekend. They are starting to peak.

Personally I just dont think he will make it. Watching out for PS and FA options though.
Called it
Owzat?

I don't see Harbaugh bringing in a WR who doesn't know the offense...not enough time to get familiar enough with it, IMHO. Zeigler's a possibility, given he was cut just before the regular season started. If it's a PS guy, I'd think it'd be Joe Hastings. Advantage of promoting Hastings is nobody has NFL film on him outside of pre-season, so he could surprise opponents.
