Bryant Suspended Four Games

This is not the ideal time for this, Antonio...

If Eric Johnson is healthy, I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of Davis/Johnson sets this week and next.

Assuming the Niners don't make the playoffs (and it's now even more likely that they won't), Bryant will also have to sit out the first two games of the season next year.

I bet the Niners will sign a free agent WR to complement Bryant/Battle...and to take Bryant's place during games 1 and 2 next season. My guess is Drew Bennett. He's a Bay Area guy and a huge target...remember, he had a few mind-boggling games last season. Bennett was under-utilized (or maybe he just sucked) this year, but he may be able to provide the Niners with a better third option than anyone they have on their team this year or could draft...

Question: Will Brandon Williams get some WR playing time now that Bryant is out? Or, will the Niners go to Taylor Jacobs?
