Yea I got a feeling that James gonna b gone soon too still against that Dixon trade tho but I have faith in the 9ers decision making so if it happenes I'm sure it's for a "good" reason....Nnamdi gone for sure, and even tho I gave him the benefit of the doubt b4 most def Kyle "Ihavetroubleholdingtheball" Williams must go!!! Tired of getting nervous when the ball is thrown his way or even when he gets his typical "fair catch" ......
49ers waived DE/OLB Jermaine Cunningham.
Cunningham had yet to be active for the 49ers after signing on October 1. Cunningham appeared in 12 games for the Patriots last season, making 24 tackles and 2.5 sacks. He missed the final four games due to a PED suspension.
9ers activated DE Tank Carradine (ACL surgery) from the reserve/NFI list.
The No. 40 pick of April's draft, the 49ers selected Carradine five months into his recovery from a torn right ACL. Despite the injury, Carradine was still able to run a 4.93 40 in the run up to the draft, but the 49ers wisely opted to take things slow with his rehab. Speaking Tuesday, Harbaugh said the Niners would continue to be cautious with their rookie end. "He’s still coming along," Harbaugh said. "He’s getting the feel back from playing 11-on-11 football. But it’s coming." Carradine's snaps will be limited if he's active for Week 10.
49ers coach Jim Harbaugh wants to get RB LaMichael James re-involved on offense.
"We want to get that going," Harbaugh said. "He’s too good of a player not to be playing." James has been a healthy scratch each of the past three weeks, and expressed public displeasure at his role. The No. 61 overall pick of last year's draft, James has just 34 career carries. It sounds like James will be active when the 49ers come off their Week 9 bye, but he won't have more than a bit role on offense. That's if he has one at all.

They need to find a way to get LMJ in space...screens, bubble screens, slant routes in the slot, read option..something. He is hard to bring down in space, and he showed it at Oregon. Imagine what that would do for the offense, becuase now you have to defend Kaep and LMJ. No one could defend LMJ and (insert mobile Oregon QB here) during his time there.

Obviously, but you put your players in the position in which they excel the best, and LMJ excels in space ala McCluster. And he can run the rock, as well as catch the ball out of the backfield.

IPIM what you said exactly. I cannot believe james has no part in the offense, and yes he is like a mcCluster.
I think james could even be a better wide receiver than some the 49ers have.
