I was just going to mention him. Could be had on the cheap. He knows the offense, and he could at least be functional and help younger WRs.

Diggs can still make plays. Hes more underneath though. This team needs someone that defenses have to account for in the intermediate and deeper areas of the field.
Disagree. We need somebody who can consistently get open. Tutu is a sufficient deep threat. The only WR available who is a deep threat and capable of putting up big numbers is Brian Thomas, and he's both a huge risk and likely out of our price range.
They need a functional WR.. and more than one guy, now.
BTJ might have been worth a shot with Puka.. but ain’t the guy to turn to on 3rd & 7.

Isn't this the part where offensive masterminds McVay and Scheelhaase scheme the WRs and TEs left on the roster open? Surely this is where they earn their $$$$s, if Shanahan can do it, why can't they?
With so few premium draft choices in 2027 and 2028, I'm trying to think realistically and practically here ...
Jefferson did catch 82 passes from Stafford in their time together, including 50 in the Super Bowl season.
That ain't a lot but it's something.
Last year, Shanahan and the Niners could turn to Jennings, Bourne and Robinson at WR.
That's a much better group than Atwell, Mumpfield and Whittington.
Plus, Kittle (11 games) and McCaffrey (full season) were elite options at TE and RB ... much better than what McVay and Scheelhaase currently have healthy and available at TE and RB.
Time to consider using someone like Fiske, who will soon want to be paid, as potential trade compensation for a good, relatively young wide out.
Overall, and when considering what we traded up with to pick him and where we chose him, I'm disappointed with his production.
Like Verse did so many times, and still does, Fiske doesn't quite get there in time when pass rushing, or he just misses the tackles.

I think Fiske is solid and has value, but I think we can get solid D linemen lower in the draft than the 2nd round.

Tutu was gonna get cut by the Dolphins. And now he’s getting major reps for us.

Don't get me wrong, I like Van Jefferson. Not sure why he has bounced around the league so much.
And don't laugh, but Brandon Aiyuk was reinstated by the NFL today. 49ers aren't going to keep him. I'm wondering if Sean McVay is looking for another challenging reclamation project to work on.
