Other than Jimmy G give me a playmaker on offense we can all be excited about and look forward to seeing?

Overview
Wilson's frame is on the low-end for early down running backs and he lacks the commitment and physicality needed as an outside runner. Wilson does have a decent feel for lane development on the play-side and back-side as a zone runner and his vision helps him find yardage that some others might miss. His size and lack of explosiveness as a runner could make practice squad his ceiling.
Strengths
Impressive touchdown production over last two seasons
Saw yards per touch go up in each of the last three seasons
Vision is solid
Deciphers blocking in front of him and makes appropriate reads
Rhythm running back
Shows ability to catch a "hot streak" as a runner
Presses the hole to set up his late cuts
Sees side doors develop for escapes outside
Hugs rush track tightly when incoming traffic comes into picture
Good feel for backside cuts
Has enough pass-catching ability to be a threat
Weaknesses
Narrow base with average wiggle to elude
Legs are spindly and lacking support to balance through contact
Below average burst downhill and around the corner
Challenged by defenders before he makes clean escapes
Gathers feet and decelerates into contact
Missing size and demeanor to create yardage through power
Ball security has been atrocious in all four seasons
Fumbles once in every 33 carries and has 17 (11 lost) for his career
Missed seven games over three years due to three injuries

Can't tell if serious.

Garcon, McKinnon, Goodwin, hopefully Pettis, Kittle.....etc.
Because this offense has improved by leaps and bounds this offseason. They went from Kilgore to Richburg who is a great scheme fit, at center. They went from Brown who can't block the outside zone to McGlinchey who is a dominant run blocker. They get Garcon back, they added a guy with outstanding quickness and ability to stretch the field vertically in Pettis. They signed McKinnon who can be a threat as both a runner and receiver.
Overall I expect this to be a much more potent offense, especially with Jimmy having a full offseason in the offense and a full offseason to develop chemistry with the receivers.

Are they TANKING?

Sounds like he can be a good fit in a ZBS as long as he can stop putting the football on the ground.

Besides Jimmy, my favorite offensive playmaker on our team is Shanahan. He knows his offense better than anyone here.

This too. Jimmy will have plenty of quality targets to throw too and Shanahan will be able to open up his playbook in the run game now that he has pieces that match and especially the OL that can block for it.
