A Dallas native who played the best football of his college career with a hometown team, SMU receiver Danny Gray will head west to San Francisco. The 49ers selected Gray with the last pick of the second day of the draft on Friday night in Las Vegas.
Gray played his first two college seasons at Blinn College where he quickly became one of the nation’s top JUCO recruits. In 2020 after transferring to SMU, he quickly showed his ability to do a little bit of everything at the FBS level by playing receiver, returning kicks, and even had three carries for thirty yards and two rushing touchdowns.
