Thoughts on Joshua Morgan? | Page 7

Wubbie · 2012-01-28T21:18:26-08:00

It's just my opinion, but did anyone think that Josh Morgan was our best WR this season before he went down? I think that we would've had a much easier time in the passing game if he was available to us in the playoffs. The guy was probably the one receiver Alex Smith seemed to have a decent amount of chemistry with, and Alex actually seemed confident to throw to when we needed to move the chains. I really hope he comes back strong next year, and is a key cog in our hopefully improved offense.

Cant really think of a good reason to bring him back. Would rather groom a rook and Patton.

No reason to bring him back at this point, he's got a job waiting for him in Carolina if he wants it doe.

He can also return punts and kicks. Morgan can't offer that much all around ability to the team.

What hasn't he shown for a rookie? He's got the possibility of being a faster version of Wes Welker.

Nevermind, this was crazier.

We need a WR..... Sure why not?! he is slow ass heck, I bet Gore or Boldin is faster than him. He is a really good blocker.

I'd sign him and dump Baldwin in a second. I always thought Morgan played with heart. Sub-par speed, but strong hands and runs with some power in the open field.

No doubt! Baldwin sucks.

For what? Patton has more potential and will probably already be a better WR than Morgan by this next season. Why bother bringing him in and have him as the 4th best option at his position? It would be wiser to draft somebody who can replace Boldin in a few years than to bring in a mediocre guy who has already hit his ceiling.

Pretty much the way I feel. You can bring in a rookie from the draft to be a #4 WR on this offense.
