clear out one half of the field by running crossing routes.. have Kaep throw the ball up high, and then run under it on the empty half...TD every time!

Kyle Williams isn't a deep threat IMO. In fact, I don't think he's even an average #3 WR.

I wouldn't be concerned about that. Something that is actually becoming more clear is that if we have V. Davis, A.Boldin, Jonathan Baldwin among others as our starters. All of our receivers are bigger and faster players. I would bet this will benefit us when playing Seahawks so their corners aren't able to mug our receivers like they did last year.

Boldin and Vernon will have to do. It's all about the run game anydamn way.

Yes Kyle Williams can come back from that injury and still be our deep threat. Adrian Peterson is just one example, but he didn't look like he lost speed last season coming back from a similar injury.

I think Kyle can bounce back and regain his quickness/speed. He did it once before, suffered a knee injury rookie year IIRC.
My question is, can he realistically start? He's flashed some playmaking ability in the past, but I don't think he's a consistent enough player to be able to handle 60+ snaps as the #2 receiver. He disappears when he's on the field at times. I hope Moore or Patton overtake him.

i think they will for sure. patton will start by mid season i think, probably sooner. if moore and patton are good i can see them using boldin as the #3 arnaz battle/move the chains guy to save him for the entire season since hes older and may get burned out if hes overused. having boldin at years end in the playoffs is very important

Witnessing AP recover from that ACL injury does give me hope that KW may be able to recover from that injury in similar fashion.

It doesn't change the fact that Williams was nothing special to begin with though.
Baalke should trade him to an AFC WR-needy team while there is still some value there.
Kansas City perhaps.
