No, I never thought Ginn was JR (by any means) but I think our coaching staff does not maximize what they have and I think the front office does not always figure out how to give them the right players, e.g. A.J. Jenkins--all in all, it has spelled offensive disaster.
You are correct that this team will probably never develop the team so that it has 2 or 3 WRs who top 1000 yards. They may not have a 5000 yard passer at any time in the near future.
THEY AREN'T BUILT THAT WAY. They are a running team.
Again...Ginn not playing last year didn't have anything to do with a failure to develop Ginn. It had to do with him not being as good as Mario Manningham or Randy Moss.
Ginn this year in 10 games: 411 yards
Manningham last year in 12 games: 449 yards.
Moss in 16 games, tho he hardly played in several...particularly before Manningham was hurt: 434 yards.
Thats in an offense that threw the ball ALOT less and had Alex Smith at QB for 9 starts. This is also with Crabtree getting a TON of receptions down the stretch. Ginn is the FOURTH leading receiver on his team because they throw the ball so much more often than the 49ers did last year.
Bottom Line, Ginn couldn't beat out the guys ahead of him. It's really that simple. It isn't because he "wasn't developed". The Dolphins dumped him as well. He's playing well. Good for him...but the Ginn love on this site these days and the way people make out like he is an example of poor choaching in SF....
....it's comical.
the real funny part is nobody wanted ginn to stay as a wr, woulda gladly kept him in the return game, but nobody spoke glowingly of his wr ability, now we made some huge mistake.
You're right. Ginn wasn't much when we already have Moss and Manningham last year. But going into this year we had a chance to keep Ginn to at least replace the speed of Moss and have his return. Having Ginn seems good right now. Like back in 2011. When he was creating space for Crabtree, he could have done the same for Boldin, and catch an occasion conversion for us.
or have it clang off his facemask so corey webster of the giants can get an interception. lets face it the guy is what he is. nice play last night, i've also seen several drops this season still from him.
