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

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

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.

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.
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

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.
People here care about being right on their hot take over actually liking their teams
