49ers need a big target like Jimmy Graham

Carlos Rogers looked like a midget chasing after him. So nice to have a guy that damn big(6'7") who can go up and make catches. Maybe the 49ers should start looking for ex-basketball players as they seem to have had a good track record with guys like Tony Gonzalez and Graham. Vernon Davis has decent size but he's the 49ers biggest receiver at 6"3, pretty much everyone else, including Delanie Walker is 6'0-6'2", would love to find a tall, big target for plays down the field and in the end-zone, its one of the things that this offense is sorely missing IMO.

we will find some in the daft, or fa if we decide to go after colston
3" isn't a HUGE difference, VD is pretty big.
coby fleener seems like the next jimmy graham but we have alot of capable TEs

That's not what your mother told me last night Trebek.



(Sorry, too easy of a setup).
But seriously - SF needs to go after Bowe big time in FA.

he would complete our offense

Would love to have Fleener but I think he'll get drafted higher due to the dominating tight-end performances by guys like Graham, Gronkowski and Davis. If he could be had for a 3rd rounder, I'd be all for it.

We're fine at TE... Need a WR with height. Crab, rookie, Morgan, Williams, Ginn
We do need a big target.

Bowe will likely be franchised, and I doubt we give up 2 1sts, I would be fine with the 2012 1st, but I hate giving up future picks, you never know what will happen.
