Demetric Felton would have served us well. Full time slot player that can also chip in and contribute as a RB. He certainly would take over the Jerric McKinnon role.

Any WR brought in at this point would likely be depth or not make the team. I’d rather resign Jordan Matthews doe that.
Usable depth at WR would be quite desirable at this point.
The likelihood of any of these guys being “usable” is slim. We have tons of useable WR’s

For me, that group is a massive pile of unwantedness. So I'd rather bring in fresh blood, that might actually develop into something useful.
That’s your opinion, I don’t agree.
My opinion is that we can’t keep brining in late round WR talent, letting them sit on the practice squad for a year and then deciding that they aren’t useful and doing the same the next year. Which is what you’re suggesting.
Actually I'm suggesting that White/Proehl/Cracraft/Sherfield aren't close to NFL caliber players. Sanu and Benjamin have seen far better days. Both Hurd and Jennings are 100% unproven wild cards, and James sucks as a regular WR.
If you aren't bringing in new talent to compete with that motley crue, you're doing something wrong.
Also to extrapolate a bit, 9ers are going to be short on draft picks and cap space next season. So the opportunities to find WR help are not numerous.

Yeah, those aren't exactly great things for a S.
Lol wtf
Oh man
Can he turn to LB?
That’s a sigh of relief. If they drafted him to play safety then I’d question why him over Adarius Washington!? I can’t believe that he’s still available
From what I'm hearing he's basically a LB masquerading as a S. So perhaps the plan is to move him to LB.

You’ve been calling for us to draft a #3 WR all day. I feel like your expectations are off a bit

I was on the Rondale Moore train months ago.
We've seen Richie James, and if Benjamin or Sanu has to be relied upon we're in trouble. Hurd still has a chance to emerge, but he's barely practiced let alone gotten game reps. Everybody else really has no business being active on gamedays.
I'm honestly kind of shocked someone is against bringing another WR, especially when one of the alternatives was drafting 2 RB's.
