Do we have the worst WR depth in the league?

How is a team with an offensive savant so devoid of talent at WR? It's crazy.

No surprise.
Dude wants to be pro photographer, plays football like a pro photographer would.

Exactly. Due diligence.

You know our wide receivers are bad when you realized without Sanders and Kittle our most reliable receiving threat was argubly Dwelley.

I would bring in Dez. We don't need a speed WR right now, we need a possession WR. Just have him run 5-10 yard routes all the time. It's his hands, not his legs we could benefit from.

As someone said in the other thread after last night loss :
why KS didn't put Richie James more in the rotation ?
he can catch punts really well so i guess he's at least an upgrade for that very disappointing WR group

They should make the wide receivers ride in a semi trailer to AZ with nothing but a light and juggs machine.

They can get wide, they just suck at the receiving part.

Considering the game is in SF I don't think that would help them catch more passes against the Cardinals.

It's clear, Jimmy has no confidence in any pass catchers not name Kittle and Sanders. Once Sanders came out, Jimmy was looking and looking, and sacked, and turning the ball over.
It was only when the score was 18-21 and Kyle went back to the run game that Jimmy sorta settled down with the play action.
To be fair, though a pro WR should hold anything he gets to with both hands, Jimmy could put the ball in much more catchable positions. The Bourne deflection would have been a big play if the ball would have been on his body as it could have been.

These dudes have been playing football their whole life. Catching the ball will always be catching the ball. It doesnt change when you get to the pros. It blows my mind when these dudes drop stuff that hits both hands
