With the 7th pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers have selected DE DeForest Buckner out of Oregon.
Position: Defensive End
Measurables: 6’7”, 291 lbs, 5.05 40-yard dash, 21 bench reps
Analysis:
Buckner’s size is his biggest asset, which should allow him to step into the NFL and have an immediate impact. Good motor, and is best when using power to get into the backfield. Is also flexible and athletic enough to quickly go from rushing the passer to containing a running back on the edge.
