WIDE RECEIVER (6):Pierre Garcon,Marquise Goodwin,Dante Pettis,Trent Taylor,Richie JamesJr.,Kendrick Bourne
The Niners have some tough choices here with Garcon, Goodwin, Pettis and Taylor locked in. That leavesAaron Burbridge, Bourne, James andAldrick Robinsonto battle over what is likely two more spots. Burbridge's special teams acumen gives him an edge, but he didn't show much as a receiver, leaving the Niners to opt for the upside of Bourne and James. Also, Burbridge is still practice-squad eligible and probably less likely to be scooped up than James would be on the waiver wire.
