I had forgotten about Steve Wallace's helmet. What year was that? He was a good player. Underrated.

You must have missed his rookie highlights where he had some nice grabs in the passing game. He has more value than just a pure return guy.

I really wonder what is happening in practice that made RJJ the full time returner/very limited time WR and that made Pettis a zero time returner/decent time WR. Feels backwards to me, but I am not a coach.

Chris Finke will make him expendable and light a fire under Trent Taylor.

Sounds about right.

At this point only proven/healthy guys are Deebo/Bourne.

Outside of them everyone is a crapshoot.

Hopefully we end up rolling what we want.

Trent Taylor is damaged goods - he's not going to be 100% for a while.

I tend to agree. He hasn't played in, almost - I think - two years now. I like the list Hummbaby did. I also agree with that ranking, until of course, we see them play in pre-season or regular season.

I was under the impression that Trent tore his ACL. It was Josh who tore his. Still, he needs to rebound from his ankle issues to make the team.

What bothers me about Taylor is that foot surgery and infection. Anytime they keep cutting the same spot, there is scar tissue that develops that impedes a lot of mobility on that foot. Rocky Blier had his promising career shortcut by a shrapnel wound around the same area that Taylor had his foot injury stuff. We shall see.
This potion group has the potential to be absolutely filthy. Everyone counts Pettis out, but let's not pretend that he didn't ball out his rookie season. If he can manage to pull his head out of his ass and get over whatever is keeping him off the field coupled with guys like Deebo, KB and a healthy Jalen Hurd, this could be a special WR group.

Yeah, hopefully he doesn't turnout like Blair - he had a good career, but it could have been a lot better.

Really loving the work Kendrick Bourne is putting in this off season. He seems like he's taking on that leadership role of the receivers. I actually think this group has a chance to be better than last years. I really am crossing my fingers Taylor stays healthy, from what I remember the kid is just a 3rd down machine!!!

Deebo
Aiyuk
Taylor
Bourne
Hurd
Jennings

We good!!!
