Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As NFP staffer Joe Fortenbaugh notes, the 49ers have finished 18th or worse in passing offense in each of the past two seasons and while a good deal of that can be blamed on poor QB play, the team's wideouts have done little to distinguish themselves. Adding to the woes is Michael Crabtree's injured foot -- something that
could sideline the former first-round pick for an extended period. Meanwhile, there are also reports swirling that
the Jets are interested in a meeting, but Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News is reporting if Burress signs in New York, it will be with Giants and not the Jets. ... Stay tuned. The NFL Network is currently reporting Burress to the Eagles is still a possibility. We shall see soon enough.
