And one small pet peeve, how the heck does Jason Reid know what the Shanahan's are looking for in terms of consistency during OTA's?

Anyway, we all share your concern over the WR position.
Imo, its the biggest question mark heading into the season.
Can one of our young receivers step up?
The departure of ARE leaves at least 50 catches to split-up.
Will there be 1 or 2 feature receivers, or will there be more of a production by committee approach?
Personally, i think that Devin Thomas could be very successful running the same type of stuff that DeSean Jackson ran in Philly.
And take over some of Tana's targets on screens, drags, fly patterns and hitches nothing tough that requires great hands or sharp patterns or reading the defense.
If you give Thomas a package of plays that are that emphasize the skill he showed at Michigan St. i think he could blossomas deep threat/playmaker.
