Golden Nuggets: Receivers Making the Headlines..

Good morning everyone, James here with your Nuggets for today, the 8th. So, of note today, we've got a receiver down, and so far he seemed to have been a pretty productive looking one at that. In practice he was the big news just behind Josh Morgan, pulling in a 35 yard reception every time. He should be missed, but I'm confident in guys like Jason Hill and Dominique Zeigler. In other news, or lack thereof--still nothing on the Michael Crabtree situation. It seems all we have making headlines are receivers, and it doesn't seem to be the good kind right now. Well, either way, here's you're links, enjoy.

So that means Brandon Jones and Michael Crabtree are both missing in action. That's the two big receivers we got in the offseason. (PressDemocrat.com)

The 49ers signed a receiver (camp body) and released another player. (49ers.com)

Maiocco recaps the 12th practice from day seven, which was yesterday. (PressDemocrat.com)

And here's the recap of the 13th practice, also from yesterday. (PressDemocrat.com)

So with Brandon Jones out, who gets in at wide receiver? (SacBee.com)

Here's yesterday's edition of Singletary's Notebook. (49ers.com)

Our quarterbacks seem to be seeing similar progress. (MercuryNews.com)

Here's a recap of yesterday's practice, the title states that it will fall to Dominique Zeigler to step in for Brandon Jones. I like that. (MercuryNews.com)

Barrows says... something about bubbles or.. something. I'm far too tired to understand it. (SacBee.com)

Prediction

My prediction for Michael Grabfree:

The first morning on the practice field he pulls a hamstring and is useless to the team for the first month of the season. He doesn’t learn to run routes properly which causes a couple of interceptions. He finishes fifth or sixth on the team in total receptions. Fans boo him. He doesn’t get why he’s not a fan favorite and says so in an interview. His cousin is indicted again.

Not the scenario I would hope for but a very real possibilty

We have all seen it before but lets hope for a better outcome for him and the team.
