Darn, Ravens picked Wiggins 1 pick before the 49ers !!!! Alright pick Dejean.

Niners pick a WR

49ers with a WR - well this means they're letting Aiyuk walk

 

[kingdivac]

49ers coulda traded up a couple slots for Wiggins and instead take a WR that they don't need - at least take Dejean

For good reason ... they need CB and OL and they pick WR?

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

LOL what are the Falcons doing?

The #Falcons signed Kirk Cousins to a 4-year, $180M contract THIS OFFSEASON with $100M guaranteed. They still go quarterback at No. 8. https://t.co/SSj5wwBhGw

I can't believe that actually happened.
I was hoping he would fall down to the Raiders.

 

[kingdivac]

If the 49ers were gonna pick a WR, pick Leggette......bungled. Go for the best receiver left on the board. They go for what looks like a possession receiver at 1st round.....Pearsal may have been availabe the late 2nd round even. Good receiver but as one pundit noted - "a luxory pick"

CJ Stroud's reaction. Said Ricky Pearsall is going to be so elite. Said its a big time get and he wanted to play with him on Houston. Gave A+ grade if you watch entire video on youtube. Wow. pic.twitter.com/WUx31y7kYP

From what I’m seeing it looks less like Aiyuk is leaving and more like Deebo will be traded.

Going from a mentally unsound Aaron Rodgers to Bill Belichick every week is possibly the greatest upgrade in the history of upgrades.

This is the one of the best possible endorsements of Pearsall. Stroud is such a football savant. I'm a huge fan of that kid. The Texans got a monster quarterback with an amazing combination of tools, smarts, and feel. He knows ball and he knows players.

I haven't followed college football or the draft much this year so I don't know much about Pearsall, but Stroud's reaction means a lot to me.

Yeah but "49ers4lyfe420blazeit" on Twitter said we reached and screwed up the pick! Who cares what one of the best QBa on earth thinks?

I can't criticize too much. Eons ago I was that same way. Despite never being a huge college football watcher I'd read up on the draft, look at consensus mocks and then be all upset that the Niners went a different direction than I thought they should.

I feel like I have a pretty strong handle on NBA prospects and the draft and I'm still wrong a bunch.

I don't know why I would get so worked up about the NFL draft when I knew so much less about the players being drafted. Dunning–Kruger effect maybe? Either way I look at all the picks now as interesting but meaningless until training camp and the season roll around.

I've only seen some highlights of him and his routes don't really pop for me but I will say that this one handed catch is legendary.

 

[Tetsujin]

New 49ers WR Ricky Pearsall played QB as a youth and into high school. This is something that Shanahan loves — QB background for a pass catcher can translate into a more detailed understanding of intricacies behind route running.

Pearsall said it helped him be a better WR. "I've…

It only took half a decade but Kyle finally got his Julian Edelman after almost nabbing him in free agency like eight years ago.

The 49ers just got the most underrated CB in the 2024 NFL Draft 👀

Renardo Green is a pure press-man technician who put Malik Nabers in PRISON:

• 1 interception
• 0 TDs allowed

The 49ers have wanted and needed to upgrade their pass protection. Well, check this out:

New 49ers OL Dominick Puni moved up from FCS to FBS. Once at Kansas, he made 25 straight starts at tackle and guard and didn't allow a single sack (nearly 1,600 snaps)

[SLAB]

Still not entirely sold on the WR. I know a lot of pundits and also Stroud is hype for him, but why didn’t that translate to draft boards and mocks? We’ll see. Cautiously optimistic.

hype about the CB and OL. At least going for need!

Now we need Jerry’s, TO’s, and Gore’s sons. Who cares about that pesky need anymore.

With the final pick in the third round and the 100th overall selection, the Commanders selected Rice WR Luke McCaffrey, the younger brother of Christian McCaffrey. New Commanders GM Adam Peters knows the McCaffrey family well.

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) April 27, 2024

Shockingly early for Luke McCaffrey to be picked.

 

[kingdivac]

From what I’m seeing it looks less like Aiyuk is leaving and more like Deebo will be traded.

There's gonna be pretty good drop off if both of them leave.

Runs a 4.5 ,,,, pedestrian.......good luck in the NFL......hope he's better than Lennoir and Thomas. 49ers kicked the DB can down the road yet again.

Watching the video of Green there's at least 3 NFL Pass Interference calls easy there....you can't be handsy in the NFL and you can't play just the receiver without turning your head - guy has bad habits he already has to break. Lynch and Shanahan continue to neglect their secondary.

 

[The_Jamal]

Ah yes, KingDivac, noted scout of DB's.

I, like 99.9% of NFL fans, know absolutely nothing about this class, but I like us using the first 3 rounds on premium positions of want/need.

Reading about Pearsall a bit, seems like he's just an overall stud, but is just "old" and a bit on the smaller side. Dominates a ton of statistical boxes

 

[funkykingston]

The NFL average for corners is a 4.47. He ran a 4.49. Which is faster than Richard Sherman, Joe Haden, Josh Norman, Marcus Peters or Justin Coleman.

What is it with this board and all the pessimism lately anyway?

The 49ers have gone to two Super Bowls in the last few years and are poised to be contenders again. The Kings just had their second consecutive winning season after a 16 year drought.

And yet it's all gloom and doom around here.

Kings regressed, and the Niners have a KC sized unclimbable mountain in front of them.

Could it be worse? Absolutely. But fans are greedy.
