Do want, 49ers misused him badly

[philw5289]

He was putting up 1,000 yard seasons with Buffalos qb carousel

Another plus is he mentioned cam newton in his rap

i would love this actually.

[Kuech the Sneak]

I would be perfectly fine with this

He would be a fantastic signing. I'd feel very good about our WRs with KB, Stevie, Brown, Olsen. Would free us up for a LT in the draft and that's a playoff offense.

[Professor Queso]

Would be a very good pickup. KB, Johnson, Draft pick(Dorsett, Alford,Hardy, Mcbride?), philly & Olsen?! Stellar

[rodeo]

He put up 35/435/3 as Kaepernick's #3. He must've been wide open by a mile every single play for Kaepernick to hit him that many times. He could walk in be our #2 and come close to 800+ yards and atleast 5 times as many TDs as Cotch last year.

 

That's what he's known for. He's shifty and unorthodox and very creative when it comes to getting open and running his routes. He gets separation even though he's not a 4.3 guy. It's exactly what our offense is missing.

 

Watch his route at the very beginning of this.

Probably my favorite option so far in f.a.

Waiting for the huddle to explode when we sign none of these guys......

[cardiackat88.]

Overrated bum

We need a vet like him with reliable hands and a good route runner, Cam will have a field day!

Nice reporting, rotoworld...

Originally reported he was released, now saying he'll be asked to take a pay cut first and may not be released.

No, he sucks.  I'd forgotten all about him.
