The Patriots got the cream (namely Sanu who is by far the better player), instead the 9ers got the bottom of the barrel by overpaying someone who won't add to the current WR corps with the active players we have. Big mistake in my opinion.

Don't kid ourselves, our hope lies in whether Jalen Hurd will be able to come back who is a difference maker type WR that the 9ers need and not just another small and shifty guy that we have in abundance.

Lol.

Double lol

Emmanuel Sanders-32-7,400 yards receiving, 13.1 YPC, 39 TDs

Mohamed Sanu-30-4,300 yards receiving, 11.5 YPC, 25 TDs

In 2 more seasons, Sanders has 3,000 more yards receiving.

Seasons over 1,000 yards receiving:

Sanders-3
Sanu-0

I'm surprised we haven't seen the WZ "another midget WR" post.

See above

Lol dumbass Patriots

Emmanuel Sanders goes for a third. Last year Golden Tate went for a third. And somehow Mohamed Sanu goes for a 2nd? Explain.

Agreed. It was a must.

We need another RELIABLE weapon to take pressure off Kittle. He's also a veteran to help the young guys. He's also very good.

Really no down side. It was a necessity.

yeah... I know a lot of us love the draft and whatnot... but if we can make a run this year, why wait and hope that some mid round pick hits.

I love that the chicken little crew were begging for a legit #1 and now that we have the best option that was out there (unless Green ever got healthy) they hate it. We traded a low 3rd for him. The 4th rounder for their 5th is gonna be about 10 spots at most. Then if he walks thats likely a 3rd round compensatory pick based off his salary and play time this season.

So as of right now (Not resigned yet) depending on where we finish we got Sanders ,a #1 WR for moving down around 1-10 spots in the 3rd (compensatory pick) and moving down around 1-10 spots in the 4th. (depending on our finish and denvers finish/5throunder)

I don't think you understand Kyles preference

I do very much which was why he drafted Jalen Hurd as he knew we already had too many small and shifty WRs.

Plus, it was reported we also went for Sanu, so ask yourself why??

The only difference between us and the Patriots is they got the right guy who they wanted and given Lynch failed in his attempt to secure Sanu we forced ourselves to pick up some guy for the sake of picking up another WR and nothing more. A 3rd and 4th for a 32 year old over the hill and soon-to-retire small WR. What a train wreck of a move!!

Im completely happy with it! We have the team that can push for a SB and we have only one big hole minus OL depth and thats starting quality WR's. Pettis is starting to come along but we need more! I love it! I will be depressed with a lack of picks at the next draft but knowing the Lombardi is in Santa Clara will be my anti-depressant

When you have championship aspirations you deal 3rd and 4th round picks.

But I guess this fanbase went from rooting for losses against rivals just for a draft pick to being a championship contender in less than a calendar year. Might take some time for some people to catch up.

I'm with you 💯

whose position does he take though?

I'm guessing Pettis

A second for the Pats is essentially a high 3rd. And they had the extra picks.

and our 3rd is essentially a high 4th at this point

LOL. You have become a stats slave. I wonder whatever happened to qualitative research?? Hmm...

You have totally failed to analyze what kind of WR can actually add to the current WR corps.

Last we need is yet another small WR, we have a ton of them.

What we need is someone who can provide more of a matchup challenge with a bit more size and power.

I think it's pretty much a given we can recoup most of this via a trade down. It's not a big deal at all.

Yeah, once he passes his physical, he'll be all good to play Sunday, and we can use him against a good Panthers defense.
