Out of the WR's on the roster who aren't 89.

Who has the best Skill sets and Measurable to be a number 1 wr?

 

I pick Gettis.

 

Plain and simple

 

You can't teach 6'3 with 4'3 speed. He wasn't bad his rookie year. He doesn't have bad hands and he's still young.

 

 

Only Negatives is this knee injury he hasn't been able to come back from yet and this mystery reason why he isn't getting more opportunities.

 

 

Who do you think??

I'm not sure about #1... cuz I don't think he's had enough on field playing time to prove that.

 

BUT... I agree that that the "mystery" reason he's not getting reps is still mind boggle'n.

I hope there is a legit reason for it... and then I'll admit I was wrong that I thought he could contribute... if that's the case. But as of right now, I don't see what the issue is. 

 

I am not sure at the moment tho, per your question, who could be a #1 at this point. I think I'd have to see what happens with the WR's in games to decide that. (if any of them are that person)

It was hard for me as well but just answer who has the best chance at developing into one based on skillsets.

It would have to be Gettis, he has great speed and great size.

 

He actually outperformed LaFell during their rookie years.

 

I actually think that he is 100% but being that he hasn't played or even practiced much under Coach Rivera, he is going to look out of place and like a bottom tier wide out until he either gets it; or is cut.

 

The only other person you could really argue is Hixon and his only argument is that he has never been giving a real opportunity to prove himself as number one or two.

 

I'd like to give Lamont Bryant a nod, but I have only seen him briefly and that was at training camp,

 

Number One

Steve Smith

 

Tools/Measurments To Be A Number One

David Gettis

Domenik Hixon

Lamont Bryant

 

Good Depth

Teddy Ginn Jr: A good slot option/deep threat and a great specialist.

Brandon LaFell: An ideal number three wide receiver, but an average number two.

Kealoha Pilares: 6th string deep threat that can run smoke routes

Armanti: Possible number four wide out if he puts it all together.

Joe Adams: Like Teddy Ginn, possibly a good slot guy if he can focus and get it together.

I agree I just wish someone with insight can give us a clue why this isn't working right now.

First, I don't think there is a #1 on this team outside of Smitty.  But to answer your question I would say Ginn.

 

Gettis reminds me of Carter from a couple of years back but a little better.  All the speed in the world but cannot stay on the field.

 

I think Ginn has been under utilized in his career and seems to be showing he has the tools as well.

Carter had poor hands though, he could be wide open and flat out drop the pass.

 

Regarding Ginn, I've been told (countless times) that he plays scared once the pads are on, and tends to shy away from contact. So I will withhold my full judgement on him until training camp when Mike Mitchell is back there waiting to line him up and drop his ass.

You make valid points about Ginn being under utilized and Gettis injury problems. My only thing is Ginn hasn't been know for having good hands and his fear of contact.

 

I think a number 1 should be able to go over the middle with no problem and that's a ? mark for Ginn.

You might be right.  What gets me is he had a good year a Miami before he signed with SF.  Then he goes to SF with a nobody at QB and disappears.

 

A. Smith's favorite target was his TE.

 

I think he has came here with a chip on his shoulder and is out to prove to god and everyone he can be a threat as a WR.   I know we signed him so he could have that opportunity.  KR/PR is IMO a backup plan just in case he didn't pan out as a WR.  He is currently our best KR/KR on the team.

    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game to go around   and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important.
