Are Kyle And Kendall an Afterthought?

Kendall is going to be back and be good.. He and LMJ will be our rotation when Frank hangs em up.
Kyle is expendable. LMJ is a better returner...correction, SAFER and BETTER returner.

Hunter is a keeper. Gore cant play forever. He'll eventually wind down in the next 2-3 years. Wouldnt mind keeping the 2 headed running monster with Kendall and LMJ.

they are both coming back. hunter especially. since moss may be gone and ginn will be gone, kyle comes back and helps us in the return department,
I hope hunter can come back.. Do you think he can really be a primary back though
i still miss morgan :(
Hunter is so much stronger of a runner than LMJ but he's no Frank. We need Hunter and LMJ but I think we're gonna have to search for THE GUY.

I get the feeling LMJ is the guy. or will be in the future.

running backs wear down too quickly in a season in the NFL. Teams needs to carry TWO good backs (LMJ and Hunter) for the future.

Now its still Frank Gore's time though. Next season we will still rotate Gore, LMJ and Hunter.

The odd man out may be Dixon

should keep them all next year..
They'll both be back next year. There's no question about either one of them. Kendall is very valuable to the running game and Williams has value as a punt returner and a slot receiver - he's wicked quick. I think the odd man out may be Ted Ginn. James is a better kickoff returner and, really, in spite of the mistakes Williams made in last years playoffs, right now he's a better punt returner.

this. they will both be important parts in the future. I really like Kyle's quickness and acceleration. You can dwell on the NFCCG if u want but KW has shown he can be a pretty good PR and WR. KH along with LMJ are also the future when Gore hangs em up.

Dixon should of been gone before 2012 began. He was good in preseason, but in rough minutes, he isn't impressive in RB situations. He is also nothing special on STs. The real aces are Spillman, Grant and Gooden.

Hunter will be back 100%, Williams isn't anywhere near a lock in 2013, he wasn't overally impressive, and James is more dynamic in return game.

Personally, I would keep Moss 1 more season, he can teach much more to Jenkins, and mentor Crabtree more. If any, Williams is more likely not to play as much.
