Kyle Williams and Mario Manningham are listed as the second string receivers, while Ted Ginn and first-round draft pick A.J. Jenkins are third string. The fact that Jenkins is listed as third string means it's a real possibility that he won't even dress on game days, at least if all five of the other receivers on the roster are healthy. Although Harbaugh has publicly defended Jenkins this offseason, he can't be happy about the possibility of a first-round pick who isn't even good enough to be active on Sundays.

Credit to WR depth if anything.
For James and Jenkins to be inactive the depth argument can only go so far.....maybe they haven't come along like we hoped. I know its early but to have both top picks in street clothes is disappointing.
but can we honestly say anyone else should be inactive though (excluding injuries)?
disappoint they may not be playing, but somewhat content with they progress they made.
