  49ers | SF receiver corps banged up    Mon Aug 22, 09:48 PM

San Francisco 49ers WRs Eric Rogers (knee), DeAndre Smelter (hamstring) and Bryce Treggs (knee) were not at practice Monday, Aug. 22, as the team is a bit banged up at receiver and might need to sign a receiver for the remainder of the preseason.

  49ers | Eric Rogers tears ACL    Fri Aug 5, 01:42 PM

San Francisco 49ers WR Eric Rogers (knee) suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in practice Thursday, August 4.

Footballguys view: The second and third wide receiver competitions lose a player who had a good year to date. Bruce Ellington, DeAndre Smelter, Quinton Patton and Jerome Simpson are the main names in play for those spots, but this offense isn't likely to produce two fantasy relevant wide receivers.

  49ers | Eric Rogers to make immediate impact?    Tue Jul 12, 04:27 PM

San Francisco 49ers WR Eric Rogers has had an impressive offseason so far. What adds to the intrigue is that head coach Chip Kelly personally contacted Rogers after the 49ers signed the wide receiver.

Footballguys view: A star in the CFL for the Calgary Stampeders, Rogers has made a good impression throughout this offseason and he's certainly a player to watch in camp. At 6'4" 215 pounds, Rogers has a nice size/speed combination and his 'my ball' mentality shows through in highlight packages. He'll be in line to make the 53-man roster if he has a good camp. However, we're only monitoring him in super deep dynasty leagues. The 49ers passing game doesn't get us excited in re-draft leagues.

  49ers | DeAndre Smelter likely to make team    Mon Jun 27, 04:25 PM

San Francisco 49ers WR DeAndre Smelter may be behind WR Eric Rogers on the depth chart, but he is still expected to make the final roster, according to Matt Maiocco of CSNBayArea.com. Smelter is believed to be ahead of rookie WR Aaron Burbridge on the depth chart.

Footballguys view: A fourth-round pick out of Georgia Tech in 2015, Smelter should be healthier this year as he was still recovering from an ACL he suffered in college last year as a rookie. Like all Georgia Tech WRs, Smelter is big, fast and physical. Let's see if he can be more like Calvin Johnson or Demaryius Thomas and less like Stephen Hill. We like Smelter in dynasty leagues, but re-draft owners should only keep his name on waiver-wire speed dial.

  49ers | Eric Rogers signing    Wed Jan 20, 03:47 PM

Free-agent WR Eric Rogers (CFL) is signing a two-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers Wednesday, Jan. 20. The deal comes with a $125,000 signing bonus, $75,000 in bonuses and a $100,000 base salary guarantee.

Footballguys view: This is one of the largest deals for a Canadian player, and it shows the value of Rogers in the NFL. A Division III (California Lutheran) undrafted free agent in 2013, Rogers has been getting interest from about half the teams in the NFL before agreeing to sign with the 49ers. He's a big receiver with a nose for the end zone.
