So are the 49ers 
I think the best approach to WRs are to trade for disgruntled players or sign older free agents. Reason: they've already mastered downfield blocking, routes, and catching the damn ball. There are exceptions since youth and speed are imperative. Need a mix of both on the roster. Just don't spend a fortune.
Time to let Fitzgerald go for the reasons I've stated upthread. Ironic, because its counter to what I just wrote. But now it's about the money ($11,000,000). It's tough -- like when the 49ers let go of Jerry Rice. But it was the right thing to do. Fitzgerald is 38.
Congrats on what is looking like a fine season. NFC West is a two-team race. Will be fun to watch it unfold.
