The San Francisco 49ers are allowed to meet with up to 60 prospects for 15-minute meetings at the NFL Combine, and a notable wide receiver is on the docket for Friday evening. Ole Miss wide receiver A.J. Brown told 49ers media that he is meeting with the 49ers later today.
Brown fits what the 49ers might be looking for to replace Pierre Garçon at the Z receiver (or flanker) position. Brown measured in at 6’0 and 1⁄2 inches and weighed in at 226 pounds. By comparison, Garçon is listed at 6’0, 211 pounds and Kendrick Bourne (Garçon’s replacement in the back half of this season) is listed at 6’1, 203 pounds.
