Wide Receiver Rank: #51 Overall: #159
Manningham missed four games because of injury late in the year but was able to get 523 yards in 12 games. He even started 10 games for the Giants. He had seven games with 50-plus yards in the 12 games he played. Manningham didn't have the huge performances of the previous season, though, having a season high in yards of just 77. Mannigham lost out on playing time and targets to Victor Cruz, who emerged as a star in the Giants' offense. Manningham takes his talents to San Francisco this season. He'll be the No. 3 receiver behind Randy Moss and Michael Crabtree. Manningham heads to a much more conservative offense with a less talented quarterback (Alex Smith) at the helm. Manningham has two of four seasons with 800-plus yards but is yet to have a 1,000-yard season. Manningham is a decent sized receiver with plus speed and playmaking ability. He has struggled with drops in the past, but seems to be over that for the most part.

A move to San Francisco didn't help his fantasy value. He might get 700 yards and a few scores in this offense. It wouldn't be a surprise to see him take over as a starter at some point if Moss struggles, which is very possible, but until that happens, Manningham won't be worth using for fantasy teams. |

| Updating previous items, San Francisco 49ers WR Mario Manningham's two-year deal is worth up to a total of $7.375 million. In addition to the base salaries of $1.2 million in 2012 and $3.6 million in 2013, the deal includes a $2 million signing bonus. The entire $1.2 million in 2012 is guaranteed, while only $1.25 million of the $3.6 million in 2013 is guaranteed. As a result, the 49ers could cut Manningham after the 2012 season having only paid him $4.7375 million, including a roster bonus of $187,500 and a workout bonus of $100,000. |

| New York Giants impending free-agent WR Mario Manningham said the odds of him staying with the team are '50-50,' and he doesn't know where the rumors came from of him signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 'That is just (rumor),' Manningham said when asked about Tampa Bay. 'I haven't said anything like that or I haven't heard anything like that until the other day.'
