Sounds like he is getting a lot of praise from niner media, if he lives up to all that hype and is more durable than pearsall, maybe he'll overshadow pearsall this season.
I'm glad he and Cowing are getting buzz. We need all our young guys to step up but I don't think it has to come at the expense of Pearsall.
Ricky is still the more proven guy in the NFL from all our year 2/rookies at WR. Though I don't know if Ricky would ever be an X out there. Don't know if Cowing or Watkins are either but there is room for all 3 to be great. Especially with JJ going into the last year of his deal and Aiyuk looking to push his way out at some point.
If we can get Jacob Cowing, & Jordan Watkins going, with a healthy Jauan Jennings & Ricky Pearsall, the 49ers receiving/passing could be awesome, on top of also have a healthy CMC, & Kittle, the 49ers offense could be a huge threat to opposing defenses, just need TW to stay healthy, Puni keeps playing like he has, McKivitz keeps improving, hopefully Ben Bartch or Connor Colby wins the LG spot, leaving Jake Brendel the only OL to worry about, also with Juice back, the run game should be back to dominance, Guerendo & James should be the teams' 2nd & 3rd RBs.
Idk about anyone else, but I'm super excited for the 2025 season, can't wait for late July, & August to see the ypiung guys like Watkins, Cowing, James, Guerendo, and of course our defensive picks, if Williams, Collins, & West start like they should plus Martin, & Stout carving out roles, with a healthy Bosa, DMo, & Huff, this team could be a surprise team, I think ST is even upgraded, Morstead, Weeks, Gifford, Surratt, Pinnock are all solid ST pickups.
