All this talk from the 49ers that they had players that would play for other teams when cut. This roster is lackluster at best. The 49ers need at least another good CB,at least 1 if not 2 elite pass rushers, safety depth, at least 1 every down RB and offensive line depth. The 49ers don't have 1 running back that can carry the ball 20 to 25 times between the tackles and is good at catching balls out of the backfield. Over 1000 players cut between Friday and Saturday and the 49ers aren't claiming any players.
Other than Pittsburgh, are there any other teams in the league that have one of those?

Morris can absolutely carry the ball 20-25 times a game.
I know Morris can handle the runs, but how are his receiving skills?
Pathetic.
You don't know that. Just because he did not have big numbers does not mean he can't.
When he was with Kyle in Washington he was averaging 20+ carries/game. He was the bell cow. He did catch some passes but his job was to tote the ball, not run out and catch it.
With Dallas, he hardly saw the field behind Zeke in 2016. Last season he averaged 4.8 in 5 games started carrying the ball in an offense that does not throw to RBs.
We will find out soon enough if he can catch it or not. However, we should expect Breida to have more of that role in this offense. He has burner speed and will be more of a mismatch against LBs. Kyle will use Morris and Juice in the passing game just enough to keep defenses honest.

At least he can be brought back if the pass rush is non-existent.

Guy is a RAW talent. Now if in his second year, with the help of Tiffin, he can use that talent to get home, he will be worth having. Too many times this PS he was running around at top speed but not recognizing where the play was actually going.
