Midgets

All the better, the shorter guys seem to be the best returners... see Harvin.... That little midge Russel Wilson is a b***h to tackle too... we should know.

Ginn was another player that I felt held us back from seeing what we had in our younger players. I really liked Owusu and even with his concussion history I felt they should've taken a shot with him. Hope we don't handcuff any other guys by keeping injury prone guys on the roster.

LMJ and/or Kyle Williams

Late round talent - Ace Sanders from South Carolina.

Also, IBTL

First post nailed it.

I really hope we draft Ace.

I trusr KW more than LMJ back there, and he looked promising, but Ace is on another level IMO.

Ginn was like a rock back there on punt returns. After years of horrible returners, Ginn was the best thing we had, and was part of our team's success over the past two years. You would think he fumbled the ball 4 or 5 times a year, based on how much the fans turned on him this season, but he only muffed one single punt in two years, and lost the airmailed handoff from Kaepernick a couple weeks later. Fans are so fickle.

He was a real good return man overall. And we will miss him IMO and Goldson too.
