The 49ers selected Iowa State QB Brock Purdy with final pick of the 2022 NFL Draft. Purdy is this years Mr. Irrelevant.
Overview
Four-year starter who was never able to improve upon a stellar sophomore campaign. Purdy is a burly pocket quarterback who needs a play-action based offense where he can rely on timing over release quickness and arm strength. He can be a confident passer when he finds his rhythm, but throwing is more of a chore than a talent thanks to a labored release. Certain areas of the field will be off limits as he moves up to take on NFL coverage talent.
