Stephen Hill re-signed on one year deal

It's worth taking a risk on him. He's got good size, speed and athleticism. I could see him making the roster if he stays healthy and plays well through preseason.

KB, Funchess, Ginn, a healthy Hill, plus one or two other receivers looks good to go. Though it's probably an uphill battle for him to make the roster if we draft a younger receiver in the Ted Ginn/Tyler Lockett mold.

Glad to hear this.  He seemed to be improving, but he got hurt before we could see any of him in the preseason.  Cam and Proehl like the guy apparently.  Him going through rehab with Kelvin couldn't hurt either.  Hell of a bond.

Will be interesting to see how he turns out. Went to Ga Tech and they don't really run an offense that helps develop receivers. Calvin Johnson was just a freak. Then he went to the Jets and there was not really much there to help him develop either. Some time with Proehl and QB willing to get him the ball may be what he has always needed.

    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
    • Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
