The San Francisco 49ers signed Alabama wide receiver DeAndrew White to a contract as an undrafted free agency, and the rookie will be competing with a sizable contingent of receivers. Shortly after he was drafted, I came across this video from 2013. It features White making an absolutely ridiculous one-handed touchdown catch against Georgia State.
I don't anticipate him making this kind of catch week in and week out, but it is impressive nonetheless. Big catches in training camp and the preseason will help, but really he needs to show consistency if he wants to make the roster. It will be a tough competition no matter what. The team signed five undrafted free agent wide receivers, and they'll be competing with a sizable contingent returning. Here are the 49ers wide receivers at this point in the offseason:
Anquan Boldin
Torrey Smith
Quinton Patton
Bruce Ellington
Jerome Simpson
Chuck Jacobs
DeAndre Smelter
DeAndrew White
Dres Anderson
Isaac Blakeney
DiAndre Campbell
Darius Davis
