Getting ahead of myself, but i wonder if he can play any offense ala Hester. You would think if you could catch a punt you can catch a pass. I mean Battle's hand's turned to sh!t when catching punts

I want to see a fast running back as well and some plays around the ends. It was either they were too slow to do this or weren't allowed to for idealogical reasons.

see not me, i want a smashmouth running game. Speed is nice but i want our runners to send messages each time they have the ball.

I say zeigler and jones get cut or williams goes to PS and Zeigler hangs on the team.

Hill is by no means a lock, he must do 1. stay healthy and 2 be consistent, to make this team.

I personally rathe rhave a vet like Jones than Hill. But I like Williams to make the team.

Crabtree, Morgan, Ginn, Jones, Williams and Vann(CB, WR and RS)

Disagree with you on Hill. He's one of our best special teams players. He's often the first guy down to the field to make a hit and he's a good receiver when given the chance. He deserves one more year.

He's going to lose his S.Teams spot to our new LB. Only way he stays on is if he figures out how to play WR in the NFL.

Info N/A

I am super ecstatic about this steal of a pick, we lost at least 3 games last year because of our special teams, we now have 2 legit threats at pr Leroy Vann and Kr Ted Ginn Jr

Only way we could have got him is because he's a Niners' fan

Of all the guys we picked up, this one is the most exciting.

Watch the film...LeRoy Vann is a special PR/KR. The 49ers did a good job following up on this guy and signing him. Kudos to Baalke and Singletary on this one.

No amount of focus will make Ginn able to catch.

Supposedly he was a DB in college. I rather see if he can step up at corner. We could use an improvement there. On offense we already have Crab, Morgan, Ginn, Williams, Jones, Hill, and Ziegler. 2 of those guys might get cut. We'd get better value out of him if he can play DB in the NFL.
