Whether or not I like KW or not doesn't change the fact that he's a below average WR. I haven't seen anyone make an argument that he's anything better. Harbaugh was asked specifically as KW and you know as well as I do that anything less would have been seen as throwing KW under the bus. That statement doesn't speak volumes because he didn't go out of his way to make it, he was asked a specific question. And Jed also guaranteed a NFC West championship in a season where we started 0-5. Part of Jed's job is to be a PR guy for the 49ers. Anything Jed says has to be taken with a grain of salt.
According to Terry Bradshaw and a couple of other announcers, Williams rans very good patterns and was a good receiver. He ran outs and slants as well as anyone on the team and showed good form on his catches. He made his mistakes fielding kicks, but that's a situation he didn't ask for. He worked hard during the off season and looked sharp during OTA's. He'll be in the starting lineup when the season opens.
I don't like it but at best he's on the depth chart ahead of Jenkins. I don't see how Crabtree, Moss and Manningham aren't the starters.
