49ers notes: Hyde looking healthy; WR corps intriguing; Patton's bad wing Posted on April 28, 2016 by Cam Inman Running back Carlos Hyde showed no ill effects of running with a stabilizing rod in his left foot Wednesday as the 49ers wrapped up a minicamp. Hyde was the last player to finish his pre-practice stretches. He could be the most important player to look at entering this season. Last season didn't go as planned as Hyde replaced Frank Gore as the starting running back. An Oct. 11 foot fracture eventually resulted in him missing the final nine games. Depth became a dire issue in the backfield last season as the 49ers deployed nine different running backs. A couple of those newcomers earned encores this season: the versatile Shaun Draughn and the diminutive DuJuan Harris (5-foot-7). Advertisement Also part of that backfield was Jarryd Hayne, Mike Davis, Kendall Gaskins and fullback Bruce Miller. * * * Wide receiver Quinton Patton had a cast on his right arm because of an unknown injury, he and was mostly an observer. Patton had a career-high 30 receptions last season, tied with Vance McDonald for third-most on the team. * * * The new-look receiving corps was missing their leader the past three seasons, Anquan Boldin, who is a free agent for the first time in his career. CFL import Eric Rogers towered over some teammates with his 6-3 frame. DeAndre Smelter had a couple drops but his reconstructed knee looks healthy. Another unproven receiver is Dres Anderson, who made a couple nice snags. Overlooked but right behind Torrey Smith in the receiver rotation were Jerome Simpson andDiAndre Campbell. * * * How's this for a potential starting offensive line (pending likely challengers in the draft): left tackle Joe Staley, left guard Zane Beadles, center Daniel Kilgore, right guard Brandon Thomas, right tackleErik Pears. That compilation lined up together at the start of linemen warmups, if that means anything. Advertisement * * * Defensive notes: Linebacker NaVorro Bowman and safety Antoine Bethea, the defense's veteran captains, were participating in drills. Outside linebacker Ahmad Brooks was not seen; it's a voluntary minicamp and he has been participating in the offseason program. Glenn Dorsey was working out on the side because of a right-knee injury that likely will keep him out the start of the season. Ian Williams wasn't seen and is believed to be home in Chicago, recovering from ankle surgery earlier this year. Tank Carradine, a defensive linemen his first three seasons, was doing drills with the outside linebackers. He's listed at 295 pounds, but GM Trent Baalke said last week Carradine was down to 272, which would serve him better. * * * Jersey numbers for free agent arrivals: wide receiver Eric Rogers (3), quarterback Thad Lewis (9), guard Zane Beadles (68), offensive tackle Colin Kelly (75). http://blogs.mercurynews.com/49ers/2016/04/28/49ers-new-look-wr-corps-missing-boldin-intriguing-rogers-smelter-anderson/

I'm still a little nervous he'll be on the first team entering training camp.

Hey remember when Ian Rappaport of NFL.com reported a couple days ago that Kaepernick won't be cleared to participate in the mini camp? Yeah, that was a good source. Stupid ass clown.

if he really wanted to be on our team he would have been here a long time ago. another trent fail and a s**tty off season just gets s**ttier. it is now to a point where we can not even get our rookies to want to be on our team.
