OK. But Joan should still be an option.
Curly no doubt
Torrey.

The quarterback play is kinda important. The coach play calling also has a role to play.

They don't know how to use this guy to his ability. I mean, was he on a rotation for special teams? C'mon! Really?

I like what Kelrley has done but that was with Gabbert.

They need to trade Smith so he can go and excel on another roster.

Torrey is our WR1, it's just too bad he can't show his true potential with our pathetic Qb situation.
Even if you wanna argue a #2, can't argue QB play and limit of other weapons to open things up for him. Like Kerley going forward too doe. Was hoping we found a gem in Streater, was worth the shot .

Why should the 49ers want to assist another franchise?

Rabbits is being sarcastic. It is an Aussie way of saying he is no good for us and should move on
Lol. I missed that part. Only if it nets someone chip can use better like Matthews.

Lol. They would not care. It does seem that it happens a bit tho.

But TBH we aint gonna win much while developing/rebuilding so why not give some new guys a shot and free up some cap space.

Maybe the GM might use the $$ to get a LB or NT or heck why not a quality QB.
NoRabbits, we did have a gang of those young Turks , aka, young WRs, and they were either just blah, (and certainly QB play + play calling ...which has been awful...come into play here), but the guys we had accumulated, both on the field and on the bench, didn't do diddly. This is a hard one where OL HAD BEEN bad, but QB play was downright horrid. So it is a fair question were those guys given an adequate shot with lousy OL (prior to this yr) , really lousy QB play, and really bad play calling , having to be factored in also. Frankly, maybe all those guys we 86ed were great WRs. Honestly tho, from what we saw, taking the other factors into consideration, they just weren't up to par...let alone great talents. If some of them appear in the future as great WRs elsewhere, then I would reconsider. I just think they were poor picks. It is possible to go thru an entire draft and have maybe only 1 or 2 decent WRs available, and if you aren't taking one high in round one, well, you are then taking the best of a poor class. It seems in recent yrs we do better trading for established WR talent rather than developing what we draft. In Torrey''s case, our QBing has been so bad in last two yrs that it would be hard for him to have shown well. And that is a shame.

I just don't think we really got any great talent via draft at WR in recent yrs. That said, since we have had trouble getting talent at WR, I would be against getting rid of Torrey. If we DO get a decent FR QB, we have to have a guy (hopefully more) that can be targets. Kerley was a terrific pickup, and his greatest talent is somehow always getting open. That has been an ongoing problem with our WRs, but not with Kerley. We were lucky there. We have been unlucky with most of the other WRs. SUre, I feel sorry for Torrey, but if we get a FRQB, then he will get plenty of opportunity to show his talents.

Same goes for Joe S. I feel for the guy, who has been one of my favorites for yrs now. I would love to see him go to a contender. But again, if we get that FR QB , then we have to have Joe hold down the blindside. And yes, he has had some poor games this yr, but overall, has been our rock. As for locker room leader, without Joe, we got bupkis. So there is that to consider also.
