Who's in who's out: Niners receiver corps

Shop Find 49ers gear online
I concur that Bourne and Richie James is the obvious choice, the real question is was WR's make the practice squad?

Victor Boldin Jr- 4 game suspension so will figure out later?

Aaron Burbridge -
Aldrick Robinson- not eligible
Max McCaffery- Yes
Steven Dunbar Jr- yes
Garcon, Taylor, Goodwin, and Pettis are locks.

As long as my man Richie James makes it I couldn't care less who gets that last spot as none of them have been spectacular.

mostert and some backup cb/s

Mostert will at least start the season due to the RB injuries. If Burbridge is cut, I'm not sure if there are any backup CBs that have the size and speed Burbridge has. He may wind up being an "extra" just for ST.
I got a gut feeling that there will be a surprise cut.....
Kendrick Bourne.

Burbridge might turn out to be too valuable at ST to let go, and Richie James is a keeper imo.

We're not going to be punting much anyway.
Bourne for sure makes it, If James gets cut he'll be on a roster real quick.
1. Garcon

2. Goodwin

3. 3rd Down Machine

4. Pettis

5. Bourne

6. Rick James



PS
One or two of
Dunbar, Bolden, Burbridge
When was the last time we were worried about our sixth receiver, because our scraps would be gobbled up right away by somebody else.

I don't remember either.

None of the scrubs on the roster will be snatched up by anyone. Even if Bourne is cut he will safely be on the PS.

Agreed.

Nt vastly overrates these scrubs. Every team has these type of players that never amount to anything in real games.

What he said.................with Burbridge being the swing player if the Niners decide to risk exposing James to waivers.

James won't last a week on the PS. Bourne won't last the season. Too many rook and second year QBs will need help. Then there's the Packers. Burbridge is gunner, which will get him signed somewhere. Just my opinion, I can't see the future.
