For now, Kendrick Bourne (6'-1", 205 pounds) is playing the slot. Bourne is used to the short passing game, which is what the slot was invented for. All it takes is to fool just one defender, and either the center of the field or a soft zone towards the sideline is what he is working for.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Bourne fills slot role with 49ers system experience; quickness and short-game expertise suit the position.

Bourne is the Cardinals' slot receiver, a position that sits inside the pocket and goes into motion, often running jet sweeps. The slot must create separation and rarely gets jammed at the line. Bourne, at 6'-1" and 205 pounds with a 4.68 40-time, has quickness rather than elite speed but is used to the short passing game. He brings nine years of experience and was signed from the 49ers, who run the same LaFleur system.
