No. 2: Marquise Goodwin

Wide receiver Marquise Goodwin has been quite the training camp story this summer, and his blazing speed offers something the Niners haven’t had in a while — someone to truly take the top off defenses.

Goodwin has been something of a touchdown-generating machine during camp. And while these padded practices aren’t any true indication of what happens in the regular season, it’s a good thing to have for San Francisco’s offense.

To date, though, Goodwin has yet to crest 500 receiving yards in his NFL career.

Perhaps that changes in 2017.
