No San Francisco 49ers wide receiver crested 500 pass-catching yards in 2018. Needless to say, this is almost a guaranteed position of need for head coach Kyle Shanahan and Co. in the 2019 NFL Draft.
The Niners, who select No. 2 overall this April, probably won’t use their first pick on a wide receiver. With their second pick (No. 36 overall), however, it becomes more of a likelihood.
One day-two prospect to keep an eye on is South Carolina wide receiver Deebo Samuel, whom Shanahan coached on the South roster during the 2019 Reese’s Senior Bowl.
