Oh ****

In all honesty I hope its a decent round pick. While I don't think Ted Ginn Jr is anything special his athleticism, and return skills alone will be missed. Marshall is a beast but NONE of our other receivers are really fast enough to stretch the field. We will also need to spend a late round draft pick on a returner now so what was the point?

I'm sure that late round pick will do us wonders... tsk tsk.

Does this tie in to the other post suggesting we will be surprised with our draft this year? CJ Spiller looks more and more like it makes sense given what was said about us being surprised and this now recent news of Ginn traded.
Jacoby Ford maybe?
Oh my how this draft just keeps getting more and more interesting. -
late round pick
if true this is a mistake.
you can't teach speed.
marshall as #1 but bess and hartline in slot and make Ginn the outside speed guy (alvin harper to micheal irvin)
Don't like this move for a 5th, 6th or 7th
what a waste #9th overall just 3 years ago to crappy throw away pick. -
Give Brandon Marshall the #19 jersey

don't wish him ill ... but N-I-C-E !!
Good-bye .... -
Is Dez Bryant the surprise? :shifty:

Colorado Dolfan ...dirty drownin' man?
:pointlol: -
My thought was Marshall would take all the pressure of being the #1 guy and Ginn would light it up...guess we shall never know. why not cut Turner to keep Ginn ?? not so sure this was the right move.
Does Hartline have speed any where near Ginn?Ultra, Larryfinfan and Colorado Dolfan like this. -

Ginn was scheduled to make what, 1.3 Mill this year? Hopefully they have someone in mind who can return kicks. If we draft Spiller, that'll fill the void.

Stupid. I'd rather have waited to see what he can do with Marshall, or at the least, get innovative in how we used him (i.e. josh cribbs. percy harvin) before just giving him away like that. Like someone esle said, that late pick will only be used to replace him as a return man. Won't be surprised if the Niners get way more out of him than we did.
At least we got his contract off the books, thoughMrClean likes this. -

Unless Turner works out, too. :up:

It's a waste all around. A waste of a pick, a waste trading him for nearly nothing. Nothing good there at all.

There is nobody in the late rounds that is guaranteed to do what Ginn can do for us, even based on his crappy season last year.
Oh well.MrClean, DolfanJake, Fin D and 1 other person like this. -
Mike Singletary will ABSOLUTELY light a fire under Ginn's *** about being cowardly about contact. The first time Ginn runs out of bounds shy of a first down marker or dives to the ground, Singletary will be ALL over him.
Also, he is the PERFECT complement to Carbtree, who cannot get deep because of his lack of speed.
Great for Ted and the 49ers. I DO think we should have had escalators (hope we do) so that if Ted goes over 1000 yards we get an additional pick next year or something.Anonymous likes this. -
I'm interested to see what this "late round pick" is.
My feeling is that it won't be enough, because as disappointing as Ted Ginn has been, he's been a better contributor than any 5th round or later pick that this team has drafted since Rex Hadnot.Fin D likes this. -

What does cut your losses mean in this case?
