Or speed. The lack of speed was the biggest issue.

When was the last time we had a legit deep threat? Ted Gin?

We have always been a short passung game YAC, pound the rock , play action offense.

Ted Ginn couldn't catch a cold. Terrible hands. His catch % was 47%. He only had 380 yards receiving in his 3 years in SF. Fans love those deep bombs but the fact is they aren't very common in the NFL. Most of the really deep ones happen when a defender falls down or on a broken play where the defender loses track of the receiver. Accuracy and quick delivery out to about 20 yards is more important. It's what makes Brock so effective.

True Ted did have a hands problem but you don't always need to hit on the deep ones if you have a threat of hitting them. Defense has to respect it to a degree at least.

The rel issue heree is thise deep passes areen't a sta;;le of the 49er offense. You need really good pass blocking along qiht recievers thatg can get ope deep. The pass blocking is sub par. Kyle's offense has traditionally been based around a good running gamer and a lot of short passes that are designed to create YAC. Many of ther best teams run that style now because it's more efficient. That doesn't mean they don't take an occasional shot but having a one trick pony with speed and bad hands doesn't add a whole lot. Hopefully Stribling will provide the speed and size to get deep on occasion as well as being a solid short to mid range receiver.

I don't really read much into this. Pretty much all of Brock's interceptions last year were a result of the toe injury and any of the other ones I blame on Jauan Jennings since he's no longer here.
