Not if you're using more 3wr sets…
Jennings earned more time based on his play in the SB.
Pearsall is a better slot receiver than Jennings, today.
Lol. Can you please also send me tomorrow's winning lotto numbers?
I agree with him, JJ isn't a slot WR on the vast majority of NFL teams. He's slot here as a run blocker. He doesn't separate. He can make the contested catch. He's a big, physical dude. He caught 19 passes during the season.
JJ is a traditional redzone, short yardage Split End.... SP is a more traditional slot or Flanker...
That is all grey as hell in today's NFL.....but football is football....you still have near hash mark and far hash marks...you sill have targets operating with different levels of field at their disposal.
I personally wish the 49ers would not run as many condense formations as they run ( for the blocking/crackback block rules), I like the offense to be more spread out to give the QB easier reads....but it will give the the smaller/quicker WRs types.. more room to work routs to the boundary, but make it harder for guys like JJ to run the same routs to the same points.
will be very interesting to see how they use these guys this year....see who can stay on the field.
I think JJ is a much better WR than we give him the opportunity to be.
