49ers have FIERCE battle for 3rd receiver

The San Francisco 49ers have a really, really good problem on offense: a fierce battle for the coveted spot of third receiver. Currently the battle is between second-year receiver and return man Bruce Ellington, free-agent acquisition Jerome Simpson (presuming he stays out of trouble), Quinton Patton, who lined up with the first team offense and the surprise so far of training camp: undrafted rookie DeAndrew White, a 6 foot 193 pound speedster (4.44 40 yard dash) and special teams ace at Alabama who has turned heads consistently this offseason.
