Another factor that tends to make me think more about adding ANOTHER guy through free agency that has an injury history that has caused him to miss significant time.

When was the last time we signed a player in FA with an injury history and it actually ended up being a bargain?

I'm having a hard time remembering one.

dex will want too much and someone out there will pay it

Dex will get a payday that is beyond what we should offer.

This guy and a talented rookie will do us so much good, Maclin can step right into Reids system and produce immediately.

This would be fantastic.

I would take Cooper over Maclin in a heartbeat.

Cooper seems more of the Alex Smith type than Maclin.

That'll give me two great outside threats, an improvement at slot with Avery over Dex, and a proven punt returning expert in Williams.

Boom. Upgraded everywhere except (arguably) punt returns
.

Uhhhhh.

No. Nope nope nope.

Listen. Do you know WHY Kyle Williams was cut from the 49ers in the first place?

That's right, his fumbling problems, came right back to the surface last year.

You do NOT want this guy anywhere near returning punts.

Cooper also helps on other levels. Like special teams. Those types of players become valuable when you are up against the salary cap.

And, I kind of agree with you about helping Alex Smith more. But, I think you might be underestimating Maclin as a route runner. He ran a lot of shorter stuff, while DJax was more of their deep threat.
