No Bailey on Sunday

Figures. Don't trust a thing out of the NFL these days.

That said, he probably wouldn't have figured into the offensive game plan. Hasn't practiced with the team all week. I expect, hope, he'll be able to suit up against the Cowgirls though.

 

[TheDYVKX]

Oh well. We weren't expecting him to play in the first place, so it's not that big of a deal.

The big thing would be getting him back this next week for the Cowboys game. If he carries out his suspension he would come back to play in Week 6 I believe, and it would be nice to get him back to play in Week 3.

I couldn't see them dressing him anyway / he hasn't been in the building for 2 weeks.

Is this Chris Givens last game in horns?

Hold on there the player reps had the proposal in their hands MONDAY but didn't approve it until after the deadline,it was mentioned during the Mon broadcast that no vote would occur until Tuesday because 4 team player reps were playing so blaming the league consistently for every disappointment is just bogus

 

[A55VA6]

My bet is he'll be available next week vs Cowboys.

Just guessing, but I think they will drop one of their 5 RB's before Givens! Probably Watts, he low man on the totum poll, Reynolds has ST value!

Watts was out there on special teams himself last week.

They aren't going to dress 6 WR even if they keep 6 on the roster - are they?

Wouldn't they drop Pettis?

 

[rams24/7]

No no no. They won't cut Givens, Pettis, or Watts. Conrath was called up when Long was IRed. It would be most logical to simply bump him back down to PS when Bailey returns. Watts was the up man on the KR unit last week and was RB3 (Mason was actually inactive). CG made a couple nice grabs, and is KR1. Pettis is a backup PR and still has value in 3rd and short situations, redzone, and vs zone coverage.

I might have thought so based on what I've seen on the field - (and I don't have the benefit of seeing practice) but then he took that paycut - makes me think Givens will be odd man out.

Are you going to dress 6 WRs on game day?

Depends on what the coaches prefer. But I'd rather have Pettis, Givens, and Watts on the 53 (even if they're inactive some weeks) as opposed to the dead weight that is Conrath

 

[12intheBox]

I think Conrath has value / and Fisher likes length - but you and I both know that it comes down to positional numbers.

 

[ZigZagRam]

As CoachO said though, they were going to be limited in their ability to use him having not participated in practice all week.

After all, only 49ers are allowed at the team facility during their suspensions.

 

[Amitar]

Cutting Watts would be a bad idea.

Pettis and CG made some nice plays today. And Conrath did...nothing. He was on the bench. He has no value. The dude is tall and that is it. Very weak for his size, gets pushed around. You never even realize he's on the field when he dresses

He didn't dress today - it's hard to shine in street clothes. Givens likely gets a reprieve if Austin is out a while so we will take this back up in a few weeks (hopefully sooner than later)
