I still can't believe we got Mike Evans, fingers crossed that he stays healthy the majority of the season.

Jerry Rice last game for the 49ers came in 2000. Boldin had best hands since then. I'm not sure what is there not to get.

JT played with JR so you'll need to include him... and JR's hands were not better than JT nor DC.

Mike Evans needs 2,156 yards to move into the top 5 all time leader in reception yards. If he did that the 49ers would claim 3 of the top 5 players!!!

2 good seasons here in SF can get him there.

Having Mike Evans here is going to make our DBs much better. Nothing like an All-Pro showing what they have to defend.

I remember a reporter asking Eric Davis if he was concerned about an upcoming game against the Cowboys and Michael Irvin. Davis' reply was, "Nah, I ain't worried. I have to go against Jerry Rice everyday. Irvin isn't going to show me anything I haven't seen dozens of times here in practice."

Meanwhile they were routinely cooked by Irvin, Harper, and then later by Antonio Freeman, lol.

In that particular game, Irvin was held in check and the 49ers won. I don't remember all the details of it. Davis' comment made a lot of news.

Maybe it was the regular season game in '95. Aikman was hurt in the game IIRC.

I remember that! Good ol days man. Football will never be the same; but I guess I'm biased growing up in the 80's and 90's cause I feel the same about the other two sports in baseball and basketball.
