The San Francisco 49ers rookie class reports to Santa Clara on Thursday to prepare for Friday’s opening to rookie minicamp. First-round selection Ricky Pearsall and fourth-round selection Jacob Cowing will be the focus of the minicamp sessions as speculation will begin regarding their fit and readiness for training camp and beyond.
As a fun exercise, I found two passing concepts for each rookie, which put them right at home with the offense and their skillset.
Ricky Pearsall
Bang/Drift Concept
The 49ers run a variation of the drift concept by adding a bang route from their inside receiver.
