Pretty much. He might win the return job though.

How is James worthless? They give literally no snaps, so I'm confused as to how he's worthless.
Looked pretty good right here:

Did the 49ers find their slot receiver?

This is interesting insight, what about Taylor?

We'll see. I think either way, we know Bourne can play the slot, Taylor can, and we'll bring in prospects for competition. This receiving group is going to have a ferocious competition and we're going to make sure we've upgraded the whole unit and that someone has stepped it up like Kyle wants.

If he's healthy but that's a big if.

Yup Jeudy, Deebo, Bourne, Hurd are definites while Taylor, James, Pettis, and Benjamin battle it out for 2 spots. I think Pettis and Benjamin win.

I agree with this, but I think we could keep 7 WRs, maybe anyway. I still have high hopes for Pettis to bounce back, anyone counting him out are crazy, players have bad years, and then bounce back the next year(s). Just don't count Pettis 100% out/gone from the 49ers.

With the new rule changes, aren't the rosters extended to 56 now ? Or that doesn't kick in until next year ?

Good question - I think it kicks in this year.
