It would be an understatement to call the 2018 campaign a disappointment for the 49ers’ receiving corps. Kendrick Bourne led the group with 42 receptions and 487 yards. A massive overhaul at receiver could be underway in San Francisco.

A quick look at the roster doesn’t reveal a ton of untouchable pieces in that group. Dante Pettis, a Round 2 selection last year who turned in a good rookie campaign when he was healthy, should have a prominent role this season. After that it’s shaky.

Marquise Goodwin led the team in receiving in 2017, but his availability due to injury has been a concern through most of his career. He got hurt in Week 1 last year and dealt with injuries seemingly all year. He also missed time to handle some very serious events in his personal life, but that won’t be held against him.

Kendrick Bourne led the team in receiving last season, but he’s never been a consistently reliable pass catcher since arriving as an undrafted free agent in 2017.

49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters at the NFL owners meetings that consistency due to workload was a problem for both Goodwin and Bourne.

“They’ve done some good things for us. They helped us. I also want them to continue to get better,” he said. “You know, there hasn’t been a consistency. At times, they’ve played at a high level. They’ve been out there a lot as starting receivers, which I don’t think always needs to be the case. I think we can get other guys in there to take the pressure off of them. When we have – when Dante started to do that last year, especially toward the end of the year – that helped us with the other guys. Even though the numbers might not be the same, that helps us play at a higher level because they’re not out there every single play, you’re not asking them to do a bunch of stuff they don’t excel at. You kind of use them in their areas of expertise. The more we can add to the group, the more of a help we get.”

Shanahan clearly wants to add more players to compete for receiver jobs, and that could lead to a pretty dramatic shakeup at the position for the 49ers. Here’s a quick look at the state of San Francisco’s wide receivers heading into the draft:

The second-year receiver was very good when he was healthy last season. A knee injury in Week 4 forced him to miss three weeks, then another knee injury in Week 16 knocked him out for the final game. He still finished the year with 27 catches for 467 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games. Pettis appears to fit perfectly in Shanahan’s offense, and should be productive as long as he’s on the field. He’ll be a lock for a roster spot.
